    Does not track steps, stairs or activity well. Watch battery life seems to have gone to almost nothing already. It looks nice and pairs with my phone better but I wish at this point I would have stayed with fitbit.

    Less than a year & this watch does not work at all. It started with striated lines & random vibrating & now it will not power on. Luckily, I think, I have insurance on it & have an appt with the geek squad. Hopefully, they'll be able to fix or correct with no additional charge to me.

    Great if you want basic but your smart watch should be comparable to your type of phone so you can get the best out of the features & benefits this also limits having to use the phone &watch side by side or Bluetooth. I suggest the Active 2 instead because it has a A Mic & speaker

    Junk product- watch stopped working after 30 days

    Bought watch as a gift. Was used for approximately 30 days before it started acting up. Was taken into Best Buy, was told they couldn’t help us because it was 1 day after 30 day in store purchase. Samsung was also no help. The watch was not misused and literally the screen just went black. Ultimately I believe the watch is junk and not worth the money spent, Best Buy and Samsung should stand by the products they sold.

    Rated a 2 until I see how it performs. This is the 2nd one. 1st one did not vibrate with notifications. Had only about 3 weeks and had to take in 3 times to get help. Each time 30 to minutes with Samsung rep Would work for a very short period and then stop hoping.again. Here's Will follow up later
