I have been reading a lot of reviews and I am finding that they are saying the band has a tendency of coming undone. Does anyone know if Samsung has fixed this issue ? null

I've been wearing it for a month now and have never had this issue.

I read the same and almost didn't get it because of this. I have had mine for over a week now and have had no issues with it. The band will only come undone if you are carrying heavy bags on the wrist (I do this with groceries) but the watch stays on because of the hole you have to put it through. I don't think the watch coming off is an issue.

I have had it for over a month and hasn't came undone once.

The old bands were infamous for coming undone. The new ones are a new design and I have never had it come off yet and I am very active.

The new gear fit 2 has a better band and stays on better than the original, so they have solved that problem.

Purchased mine 5-2017. The clasp and band design is poor. If you use your hands often and tend to reach into tight spaces, anything that might drag against or pull at the band even lightly, it will likely pop-off. What I did was pushed-out the "samsung" clasp and reversed it so that the clasp half of the band looped over and thru the strap/hole half of the band and against my wrist (so the clasp side end of the band that would tend to get caught on everything is no longer exposed because it is against my wrist and shielded by the other half of the band). It is a little difficult to get the watch on because the clasp is reversed and u have to pinch it hard to get it to connect thru the adjustment holes. But once u do, it will no longer pop off. This watch would have been better with a much stronger band to watch connection (because I found that to be weak too) and a locking clasp mechanism instead of a little metal button pushed thru a hole.....

My has come undone and fallen off many times. After almost two years, mine finally fell off and cracked. It still works and I still wear it but the damage is very obvious. Get the ZAGG protector. Soneone talked me out of getting. Not sure it would have helped but I am thinking it would have. It has been a great watch. Love it and plan to upgrade when I finally do replace it.

Yes, it comes undone, which is why I returned it. I kept it for 2 weeks and it fell off 3-4 times. I love the curved band, but a better band locking system is needed.
