    Great watch, really like the battery life and the features are great. There are a good selection of watch faces, I like the minimalist ones.

    Battery does not last as advertised. I returned it twice and got a Galaxy instead. My old Vivoactive battery lasted twice as long. The Screen is far better looking but if you have to charge it every 2 days you may as well get a regular smartwatch.
