Apple Watch Series 7 (GPS, 45mm) - Starlight Aluminum Case with Starlight Sport Band | Renewed Premium Smartwatch for Fitness Tracking & Notifications | Perfect for Running, Swimming & Daily Wear

So, I decided to get an Apple Watch after my Garmin broke in a restaurant over the holidays. Not to get into it, but their support was horrible and I decided to jump ship.Purchased an 8SE in January and it was great— but I didn’t realize that the SE doesn’t have a keyboard for typing.Returned and purchased this series 7 cellular later in January for about $20-$30 more than the SE was. It was a certified refurbished purchase and, while it was not eligible for Apple care, it was sold with a comparable 2 year warranty with Amazon. I was a bit nervous, but it came in perfect condition with a perfect battery.I do have to charge every day, or every 2 days if I remember to turn on low power and other energy-saving modes at night. I don’t wear in bed.About 10 months in I’m at 94% battery capacity from 100% when I got it. Do I wish it stayed charged longer? Sure! I have to remember to charge it if it’s low and I’m planning on working out, but you just get used to it.Glad I purchased cellular because, even though I didn’t connect it for months, it gave me the option. I hope to keep the watch long term.Glad I took the chance with return because I’ve had no issues!Series 7 is fantastic and has everything I need (fitness tracking with metrics, general productivity, texts/replies on my watch), and it looks way better than the Garmin as a general watch. Very easy to swap bands for different occasions or outfits, and there are many options available out there. I like that I can go from leather band to fabric/silicone easily if I’m getting to work out after work.(As an aside, silver hardware is the better choice generally for Starlight over gold or rose gold if you’d like to match reasonably well)I like to run, do general functional strength training and yoga, and I’ve been happy with Apple for these things. Plus, it connects to the elliptical at the gym, and runs simultaneous timers when cooking!I recommend both the watch (over my old forerunner 635 and the AW8 SE) and Amazon refurbished.
