This was very easy to setup on my iPhone 7 plus by the way I just had to charge it by the way which was really fast by the way then after that I had to download the Samsung watch app and the Samsung health app by the way and I was up in running in less then 5 min by the way. And I use this to go for walks by the way im able to take phone calls and set it up by the way. I had no problems with it by the way.

My watch is easy to use and I do enjoy it. I am letting people know how good this watch work

Great item easy to learn to use and very useful in day to day life.

Súper fácil de usar, y la atención en el curbside es súper rápido y accesible

Very intuitive smartwatch, great apps, easy to use and setup. Happy with purchase.

Love the watch but if you want it to really be useful, the battery has to be charged daily.

I like this watch, but I probably would've been better off getting an upgrade. It tells me I have messages, but it doesn't have the capabilities to show me the messages or play them to me (no speaker on the phone at all). I do like that it tracks my workouts even when it's not paired to my phone. Overall, it's a good watch for the price I paid.

The only thing is it dies super fast. These settings are super cool and easy to use.

Very comfortable. Miss some of my G3 features, but works better on reading some of my vitals.

Easy to use and plenty useful watch with all the necessary features.

Great product for the price, this watch has the festures I was looking for.

Very good watch, it looks great and you get a lot for what you pay.

I love this watch, it is easy to use and is interchangeable. Pairs with my phone very easy.

great watch however I wish these type of watches would have a longer battery life

Love the watch! Looks exactly what I wanted. The watch itself look nice.

I'm very happy with my watch. I like all the fixtures on display

Bought this for my mom and she loves it easy to use and lots of great features

I prefer the Samsung/Google platform to Apple, so I was excited to hear about the Galaxy Watch Active when I decided it was time to upgrade my trusty Fitbit Alta, which I had worn for 3 years. I preordered and picked mine up the day that BestBuy shipped them to the stores, so I've been using it daily for about 3 months, and I'm disappointed. First the good - it's small, light, round, and comfortable. I rarely notice that it's there. I also like that there are many watch faces available for a reasonable price. Unfortunately however, it does a poor job of tracking steps, which is the primary reason I bought it. The Galaxy Watch Active only records steps taken with swinging arms. This means that steps taken while pushing a grocery cart or carrying something in my arms are not recorded. After 3 years of wearing a Fitbit, I know my habits, and how many steps I take in an average day, and the Galaxy Watch Active records approximately ⅓ fewer steps daily. Disappointing. And, forget about tracking flights of stairs. I'm lucky if my watch records 1 flight daily, and I regularly do at least 10. Also, I expected the Galaxy Watch Active to be capable of engaging in phone calls, like my husband's Apple Watch. Not so. While I like that I can reject calls from my wrist, when I answer there, I am directed to my phone. There is no audio on my wrist, so what's the point of being able to answer there? Pointless feature. In addition, I was deceived about the blood pressure monitoring capabilities of the Galaxy Active in the pre-sale marketing hype. I'm still waiting on that in a stable and reliable format. And also, I do really wish that the Galaxy Watch Active had the EKG function, like the Apple Watch. My health insurance is no longer covering that in routine physical exams, so it's pretty nice to be able to run it in the doctor's office on the Apple Watch. I also wish that I received high stress warnings, like on the Apple Watch, encouraging me to breathe mindfully. Incredibly annoying is the bright green light that constantly flashes against my wrist while wearing the watch comfortably loose. It shines in my and my husband's eyes at night, in movie theaters, at shows… it's quite distracting. The Apple Watch doesn't do this. Not as important, but noteworthy, are the dreadful (Bixby) voice to text and texting capabilities of the Galaxy Watch Active. While acceptable on my Galaxy phone, they're barely tolerable here. I expected a similar experience device to device. And I should mention that while it was quick and easy to replace the watch band of my Fitbit Alta, this is quite cumbersome. The band cannot be replaced quickly or easily. Even with my small fingers, working with tiny pins is tedious. I have to use needle nose pliers and tweezers. Poor design. Finally - battery life. I have never been able to get 48 hours from a single charge. I must charge every day. But on the bright side, it usually only takes about an hour to bring it back to 100% from 50-60%, so that's not too bad. I really wanted to love this device, but a step tracker that doesn't accurately track steps is pretty disappointing.

I like the watch. It doesn't have a long battery life as some other watches.

Gave as a gift! Best looking watch with loads of features and a great battery life.
