    Light weight and comfortable on wrist with accurate readings of steps and heart rate. It also has a sleep tracking feature that is pretty cool and plausible since I can sleep in the watch. I charge it every 4-5 days so the battery life is perfect. After about a month of use I haven’t had any complaints. It tracks my workouts and is fairly customizable. I prefer it over a FitBit.

    Accurate, Light Weight, and Great Battery Life

    This sleek and simple fitness tracker was exactly what I was looking for. Very accurate in steps, heart rate, sleep activity, and extremely customizable. As you would expect, the setup and syncing are seamless with a Galaxy. It is also extremely lightweight and comfortable - sometimes I forget I am wearing it, to be honest. The battery life is also phenomenal compared with other wearables I've used in the past, which can honestly last close to week depending on your settings. While I wish the body was metal, the build quality is solid and I can understand the alternative at this price point. The AMOLED screen is small but strong and crystal clear. In short, this thing rarely leaves my wrist, and I've been extremely happy with the purchase.

    Counts your steps, you can record your excercise, alerts you of messages, emails, the weather, show time, temperature and more. This Samsung wearable does almost everything a smart watch will do. Its comfortable and durable at an affordable price!

    It Survived This Long

    Simple, compact smartwatch that has seen much abuse but still works as well as the day I bought it. It's got paint stained into the crevices from being submerged in paint (I worked at a paint store for a while) and dirt from frequent gardening. Its been with me on swims and hikes and various other dumb activities and its still kicking a year later. Downsides are the battery, which needs a good 2.5 hours to charge every 4 days regardless of use. That and if you lose it, the watch doesn't make sound, and is only capable of vibrating. The band broke once on me, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is super easy and cheap to replace. It can be used to deny calls and check notifications (not in detail, but its enough), and is perfect for minimalists who want a fairly accurate pedometer/heart rate monitor.

    The Software is decent, I wish it had NFC Samsung Pay, the battery is also decent. The biggest problem with it is that the band is not big enough, its not comfortable and its very FRAGILE. I have to use the last hole on the band to get it around my wrist. I have already BROKEN 2 bands and will not be buying a 3rd so I consider this a waste of $100. I did buy the MI Band 4, the band is much bigger and more comfortable but I like the SW better on the Fit. In a perfect world I wish you could combine the band from the MI 4 with the FIT watch and have Samsung Pay built in. The MI Band 4 battery is way better however I did get 5-7 days off of the FIT before having to charge it so that is a non-factor for me.

    All of the features work well except the sleep record. Its stops tracking your sleep for 3 to 5 hours almost every night. See screen shot. The other problem is that the band is too small. I had to make an extra hole to fit my wrist.

    Very poor quality!!! The band fell apart just after two months. The Samsung warranty is totally a joke! The Samsung representatives were extremely rude! They initially refused to do anything and claimed that it was physical damage which’s not under warranty. After arguing with the reps for two hours, they reluctantly decided to send us only the replacement band. How cheap is that! No more Samsung!!!

    Great minimal fitness tracker/smart watch alt

    Prior to purchasing this I was using a Samsung Galaxy Fit active smart watch (v1). Its a great watch but the battery only lasts around a day. If you want to sleep track you'll never have enough juice on it for that. It also felt a bit heavy on my wrist and had a tendency to turn completely around due to it's weight. I wanted something light and practically non existent. I also wanted something that did a bit less which isn't what everyone's looking for. I wanted to receive push notifications from my phone, have steps tracked along with movement reminders, and have heart rate monitoring but have the option to change the monitoring to every 10 minutes (many trackers only have always on or completely off as an option). The ability to answer my notifications was preferred but not required. I originally planned to go with either a Fitbit Charge 3 or 4 or a Fitbit Inspire. I had even purchased an Inspire from a competing store but they botched the pickup/shipping on it and it either never shipped or they chose not to notify me of it's arrival at the store! The Inspire also had no heart rate options and the HR version is only always on monitoring as far as I can tell. The Charge 3 would have ticked off my requirements save for 1 requirement - my texting and calling. I use Google Voice for all my messaging. There are 3rd party apps to communicate with Google Voice but many reviews I saw seemed hit or miss on the reliability as far as that went and I didn't feel like messing around with so much extra. The Galaxy Fit Active has no such hang up. I wasn't sure going in however since my Fit Active watch has no issue and uses the same apps I decided to try it. It even allows me to use the quick reply option with Google Voice. If you have your Google Voice set to "Use Data/Wifi" for calling you will not see caller ID when receiving a call but rather see "Unknown Number", regardless of whether the caller is in your contacts list or not. At the same price as a Fitbit Charge 3 it has a much nicer screen in my opinion. Its full color and nice and bright, easy to see in all lighting sources I have tested. There are several different watch faces in the app however currently no additional ones available for download. They also offer several widgets which anyone who has used other Samsung smart watch will be familiar with, although not as many as my Fit Active offered (understandable as this is a tracker rather than a full blown smart watch). All in all I'm very happy with this. I've had it over a month now and have found very little about it to complain about. I will say I'm mad at myself for not buying on sale - it was marked down the week before I bought it and I'm sure would have gone on sale again but I chose not to wait. Also, and the reason it's not receiving a full 5 stars, it doesn't get the full 7 days battery it claims in some places I've seen. The very first week I had it, it did seem to. Since it's shrunk back to around 4.5-5.5 days. Not a huge ding for me as my Fit Active barely made a day. I also have had it randomly disconnect from the Bluetooth on my phone, a problem I had with the Fit Active also, however much less than my Fit Active. I'm uncertain if this issue lies with my phone or the apps Samsung uses to communicate with the phone/Bluetooth. This is typically solved by launching the Gear Fit app and letting it re-establish communication, a minor annoyance at best. TLDR: This is a nice tracker with alot of offerings for the price, great for an entry level tracker or someone looking to go minimalist.

    I cant stress it enough-this watch is incredibly comfortable! Its unnoticeable, but if you really think about it, it just feels soft! I love the look and slimness of it, it leaves no marks on my skin and doesnt wiggle around. I only just recieved it, and I know I'm not a verified customer (my mom bought it for me, I just picked it up), but I have one major dislike; the screen size. Now, overall, the coverage is great, but the bezels are huge. Not horribly, but I hoped the screen would take up the whole area. I wish this to be the case in future products. Overall, I love this watch. I cant wait to show it off at work as it tracks my every step! :)

    It's nice and sleek, easy to setup. Has many face options and allows you to customize widget displays. Battery life is great, I only take it off when I'm going to bed. You can wear it to sleep to track your sleep patterns. I've set it up to get notifications from call, text. My main purpose of the Fit was for the steps and time, but there is definitely more you can do!

    I traded in a Fitbit watch that I received as a gift because it wouldn't work with my Samsung phone or my Samsung Health app. The Samsung Galaxy Fit watch I bought in it's place has exceeded my expectations and works even better than my old Gearfit! Great sleep tracking, sleek design and great price! The band was a bit cumbersome, so I bought a compatible watch band on Amazon and fits great.

    Excellent Tracker

    I have owned the Galaxy Fit for a month and am very happy with it and feel it is a very good option at this price point. If I wanted music and apps on my wrist, I would have purchased a smart watch, not a tracker. Likewise with GPS, if I wanted to spend more, I could have gotten a watch with GPS but I think this need is overblown. Unless you are an elite athlete, using your phone's GPS is more than adequate and you phone can be easily carried in a runner's belt of something similar. What this tracker does have is a great high quality easy-to-read screen (even outdoors) with excellent touch. It is small, lightweight, and has a simple interface customizable with the Galaxy Wearable app. Coming from Fitbit, the software was a wonderful surprise. Setup was a breeze, options and stats are straightforward, and syncing with my Android phone works perfectly, unlike Fitbit syncing which was very glitchy, slow, and a constant source of frustration. Heart rate tracking works great (turn on 'always' in setting Galaxy Wearable health settings), sleep tracking is better than any tracker I have owned, and notifications from phone apps works well. One type of activity can be started with a simple long press on the Fit's button and you get to pick which one. Battery life is good (I'm sure this varies with usage but 5-7 days is not an unreasonable expectation). The one annoyance that came up often in reviews is the band which is harder to remove than it should be but it is very comforable and durable, looks OK and I was able to quickly get used to it. The other downside is there are not many 3rd party band options available yet but hopefully this will change with time. I think this is the highest quality tracker available at this pricepoint, I would buy it again, and I recommend it.

    This watch is so awesome. I'm amazed at all the features. It of course tracks your steps, but it also measures your heart rate, stress, how long you slept, tells you the temperature outside, notifies you of email's, text and incoming phone calls, etc. It picked up that I was on the treadmill and synced it to S Health app on my Note 10. I've had it on since this morning and I still have 81% battery life and its bedtime. And its sleek enough to wear with the majority of my fashion's. I really like this watch so much. Keep it coming Samsung!

    Got two for my husband and his dad for Father’s Day and after they had it for a while decided to get one for myself. Especially for the price I’m very satisfied with the product and my purchase overall. Pros: Price — for the price alone its well worth it. I has an Apple Watch Buy found it wasn’t something I utilized frequently other than as a very fancy watch. Since I didn’t needed (or use all the excess features of the Apple Watch) something that has the features that I actually use it for as a timepiece, heart rate & fitness tracking, basic notifications, and sleep monitoring it a great device for not an exorbitant cost. Features— or over filled with extra apps and such thats wouldn’t use. Great colored screen that’s just the right size to be a negligible hindrance to any everyday usage. Also has a do not disturb setting that can be set for intervals so it’s not going off in the middle of the night with notifications. There’s also a pretty decent amount of fitness related widget s that allow for a variety of heath minutiae. Looks— looks good Compatibility— I have an iPhone and my husband has a galaxy, and neither of us had any issues with setup or usage on either device. I also like that there’s no platform incompatibility between devices. Battery— it charges fairly quickly and maintains a charges for quite a few days, even with heart rate monitoring set for one an hour or constant Extras— pretty decent trend tracking and reporting. Cons: 1.App— you need two docent apps to properly use and adjust. One device specific and one health specific. It’s kinda a pain to use, as the menus are a little confusing to navigate and really seems inefficient. 2. iOS specific con- while it will also uses available health data from other apps (Apple Health,etc) it does not (Samsung Health app) act as a data source in reverse, so unless I use the Samsung app I am unable to consolidate a full summary of my non-Samsung related tracking from before with my current data. 3. Vibration notifications can be a little annoying Would buy again and would recommend.

    I really line this sleek slim activity watch. It did everything I needed. I was able to read text, See caller ID, keep track of my steps and simple health scores. My only complaint is that I wish that they would make the wrist band better. While it is very comfortable, It brokein the midldle of each strap!!! Iwill tr and see if I can replace the strap..
