Apple Watch Series 5 (Grade A Refurbished) (Your Choice)

I bought this Apple Watch 5 to replace my 3.5+ year old Apple Watch Series 1 that had an expanding battery and I didn’t feel comfortable with a battery that could explode and burn me with acid attached to my wrist. The Series 5 is absolutely an amazing bit of kit. Having owned an Apple Watch for over 3.5 years prior I’m no novice but the difference is night and day. The Series 5 is super fast and responsive. AND I LOVE THE ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY! And lets talk about the display! It’s almost edge to edge, extra sharp, no visible pixels like the Series 1 and is bright and vibrant. I love having the time always displayed like a “normal” watch and not being forced to awkwardly raise my wrist nearly to my face to get the S1 screen to turn on just to see the time. I love the new complications and watch faces too! I had so much fun picking complication and mix-matching different clock faces. Just lovely. The battery life is much better than even my S1 when I first bought it 3.5+ years ago. I can get through nearly 2 days with moderate use and one day with heavy use. I use a sleep tracking app called Sleep++ so I literally have the watch on for 24 hours straight and only recharged while I’m bathing in the morning to top up the battery. Apple will be officially releasing WatchOS 7 with native built-in sleep tracking— but you can test it out right now with the Public Beta of WatchOS 7 but because you can’t downgrade an Apple Watch if something goes wrong, I don’t put betas on my main and only Apple Watch but if you’re daring or have a backup Apple Watch, definitely try out the new, amazing WatchOS 7 features. And that brings me to the Apple Watch 5’s longevity. Even though I am sure an Apple Watch 6 is just a month or two away from being announced, The Apple Watch 5 is future proofed for at least a couple more years because it’s so fast, has the always on display, stellar battery life, the ECG and Fall Detection. Also it has the hardware for measuring Blood Oxygen (Blood Oximeter) but it’s not activated in the OS because Apple hadn’t gotten clearance yet by the time the Apple Watch 5 was released— they allegedly have clearance and approval now so AW5 will be getting this feature too! I can go on and on about all the great features and uses for my AW5 but I’ll end this review saying that it’s been worth every penny I paid for and will be an amazing companion on my wrist for the next 3.5 years!
