Shorter battery life than competitors

Early Christmas present and have been ecstatic so far.

I bought this apple watch about week ago , and is amazing , battery life 2days , very easy to use ! Nice product

The watch is a nice size for my arm I'm skinny and it doesn't look big or small . I thought it would have more features for the price but I'm very happy with it you can take phone calls without getting your phone out or your pocket and send text . It's also good to keep track of your fitness.
