    Primarily purchased for golf, Love the long battery life and GPS features. Unexpectedly good fitness features but hope for BP and blood suger tracking on later models.

    Love the watch, and the fitness tracker. However, it doesn't show texts from your phone, which is what I was thinking it could do.

    Great watch. Light, many features, and a GREAT battery. I had a Vivoactive 3 and Galaxy 5 and had to recharge daily. This watch can go for 4-5 days without charging, perhaps longer. Looks great, and has incredible sensors
