Wear every day!
I wear this every day, I usually charge it while I'm sleeping, but now that it connects to my wifi at home the battery lasts forever! I fell asleep with it on once and it tracked my sleep even. I didn't even know it had that feature. You can get so many different faces that I change them all of the time. It tracks calories burned, steps taken, floors, (especially good if you climb a lot of stairs), has numerous workout settings, you can track your water and caffeine intake as well. My boyfriend wishes he would have bought one for himself as well. I have the small/medium-sized Gear fit2, and it fits perfectly and is comfortable. My only complaint is that you can only use the charger that comes with it to charge it. It's not micro usb like most phones. So, unless I want to take the charger everywhere I can only charge it at home, unless I buy an additional charger of course, and can't charge it while wearing it either. But overall, I love it and would recommend it.

Pretty Good and Solid Choice
Basically, the only bad things about the Gear Fit 2 are the Band and Apps. The band is a little bit hard to get on sometimes. I downloaded the Spotify app on the Gear Fit 2 but it is basically a glorified controller. (The Gear does not have speakers although you can connect Bluetooth headphone wirelessly.) I also downloaded 50 songs on to my gear ( you can download more.) which you can play to Bluetooth headphones. On my Fit 2, one of the buttons would get stuck sometimes but that is probably only mine. This has GPS which works well and wifi. The battery life is not very good but the charger is a cradle and is not a plug. It has a lot more that some other bands, Like Fitbit. If you have an Android phone and were going to get a Fitbit I definitely suggest you get this. One last thing is that you can pick up calls (no mic on the gear so you talk to phone) and respond to texts. Which I love and use a lot. I find the S health app is good too.

Great product 4.5 stars
This is a great fitness tacker. The only one in this price point that has a GPS/device screen that didn't need your phone to view distances, and is slim enough for my small wrist. Other watches with the same features stood out from my wrist, even as tight as I could wear them, you could see light between my arm and the device on the edges. I needed a GPS because when pushing my son in a stroller a pedometer doesn't count steps. I didn't care about the smart watch notifications, but I must admit they have come in handy to catching more texts in a timely manner. I like that feature. I've also banged my arm hard into solid things and the glass is fine. It had the distinct advantage of also not messing up the step count when using power tools, like some pedometers. The only down side so far is that you will miss your step goal if you are only using the GPS and not moving your arms, there's no way to average steps per mile and add them to your goal count. This is annoying to not make goal when you know you did, especially if you're in a community challenge. Another issue is a minimum of watch faces available so far, though that will obviously change the longer the device has been out. Also, if I use the GPS for an hour+ each day then the battery only lasts 2 days. I typically charge it every night, I don't like sleeping in a watch so this isn't really inconvenient, and it's battery is usually at 40-70% depending on my activity for that day.

Great style and functionality
The first time I've looked at it online already caught my interest not to mention i also have the first gear fit that i love but the more irresistible part is seeing it actually in front of you, it didn't give me a chance to decide I just grabbed it away. It is slick, slim and beautifully designed and wearing it the first time is an eye catcher and functionality is an ease and intuitive interface aside from extra added features, all in all its a ten for me and this one's gonna be tne mistress of my first one lol...

Too Big for me!
I recently purchased the gearfit2 after my second Fitbit broke. I wanted something not only sturdy, but also waterproof. With hesitation I purchased the gearfit2. After arriving home I tried on the device and it was huge on my small wrist. In addition, I discovered that it was only able to go 1.5 meters deep- and reviews stated it should not be worn showering... usability...the device was easy to manipulate and displayed a lot of info. Wish it were waterproof and smaller!

I Like It But...
I received the Gear Fit 2 as a Mother's Day gift in 2017. Pros: It offers a lot of functionality like a timer, steps, weather, bpm, syncs with my phone, tracks your sleep, etc. There are regular updates but they are not overbearing. The display is clear and when the battery gets low, it prompts you to switch to power saving mode. Cons: The battery drains quickly. I have to charge it every 1-2 days. As well, it doesn't always charge when it's on the charger. For example, it didn't charge last night; it appeared that the charger wasn't working. It didn't start to charge until I powered it off. Lastly, it's not compatible with a lot of different sites like some other wearables. Overall: If you can deal with having to charge often and lack of compatibility outside of Samsung, this is a good product.
