    I loved this watch but wasn't a big fan of their app. I ended up returning it for a fitbit versa. The watch was awesome though. I wish they would spend more time on their UI.

    ... as I have already Samsung Gear S2 and Samsung Fit2, and this one didn't give me much new for the money. But if I wouldn't have the others already, I would have been very happy with it.

    Good watch, cool interfaces and slimer/smaller profile for women's wrists. The silicone band is comfortable and it syncs seamlessly with my phone. Would recommend.

    He loves it. He hates carrying around his phone and would often leave it on vibrate so he would not hear any of his calls. Now he no longer ignores me when I call :)

    Works great. I purchased this for my mother and she loves it. I think it's best compatible with a samsung phone rather than an iphone but otherwise no issues.

    I bought this when my galaxy gear s2 finally died. It has been great! It lasts an average of 2 days and monitors my stress levels along with my steps and a million other things.

    This is a good smartwatch, has most of the needed features. The down side, it has no sound at all, not for notifications or alarms, it just vibrates. Besides that it's not bad

    For the same price I would have chosen the other big name. It doesn’t have a microphone or the battery life like the competitor.
