    I love the matte band and silver/chrome watch. I'm usually partial to black watches. But this was too nice to pass up. It's very comfortable. I recommend it.

    Previously had the Samsung Gear2 and was in the market for a new watch. I'm in love with the color, look, and glad to know the glass is sturdy Gorilla glass.

    Bought this watch for my wife for Mothers day. It's our first time dabbling with smartwatches but she loves the functionality of it. Activity tracking is wonderful.

    can not get podcast to sync with it. The only way I can do it is with spotify premium. Other than that, it's been good

    My wife likes the small profile and color. She likes to change the watch faces to match what she is wearing etc. She is still learning all it's functions.

    Nice watch for all day wear. Battery lasts all day, but I recommend getting a bigger size especially for better to see your text messages.

    I have purchased a Fit Bit and a Garmin Vivo, both did not work for me. This watch works great with my S10 and is very intuitive. Excellent so far.

    My girl friend uses this all the time. The only downfall is that you cant make or take calls from it witch they added on the Active 2.

    So far I love it. The only issue I have is my phone is too old to be compatible so I use it stand alone. Which I think is a nice option.

    This is a great watch. The only thing I can say bad about it is when it updates it will take things away or move them that you like.
