    I wasn’t sure I wanted to start wearing a watch again, but even though it is larger than the watches I used to wear, it doesn’t feel like it’s in the way. It is comfortable and convenient to keep track of my fitness. It’s only flaw that I have found so far is that the floor tracker doesn’t work very well. I have stairs in my house that I climb many times daily, and it rarely detects it.

    My husband really likes his Galaxy. He is a jogger and very healthy. The watch was easy to set up. I put the Samsung app and Samsung Health app on his apple phone with ease. I thought I might struggle with possible android apps and an Apple device, but Samsung has an app for the Apple phone. The display is easy to read and easy to charge. All in all, great device.

    I saw this watch when I bought the new s10, but decided to wait until I did more research. I ended up going back and choosing this one because it was a smaller fit and lightweight. Sometimes I forget I'm even wearing a watch. I don't hit it on anything like I would with my fitbit. The screen is gorgeous and easy to navigate. Battery lasts me 2 days and even has a low battery usage mode. Love the wireless charging too.

    I just purchased this and I Love it! I have been thru 2 Fitbit Charge 3's and decided to step up to this. It's easy to use, tracks HR, steps, calories etc.. Along with being able to use the voice feature to respond to text messages, and make phone calls. This thing is GREAT! I talked my wife into replacing her Fitbit with one of these too! Great product, worth every penny, Highlt Recommend!

    Solid Smartwatch with limitation on iPhone

    I really love the design and the round shape of the watch and decided to give it a try even though I have an iPhone. The sync up is easy and in most part, works well with the iOS. However, there are a few functionality that won't work, including composing text messages. Also, the connection could disconnect from time to time and you might need to fully reboot the watch in order for it to properly resync with iPhone.

    Great Watch. It does what I wanted it to do. I would definitely recommend . Sometimes I dont hear or feel my phone ringing. Not anymore the watch alerts you and I haven't missed a call since purchasing this watch. I havent been able to talk on the watch after receiving a call but per the instructions you can with Bluetooth earbuds. I will try that and see. But overall. Great Watch for the price.

    The watch has been very helpful especially how I need my heart rate checked regularly. However, my only problem with it is the battery life. Every time I go out of my house for maybe 4-5 hours , the watch would be out of battery. I try to conserve the battery life by using it primarily only for heart rate measurement but to no avail. I like the watch but I wish it would last longer than 5 hours.

    I love this watch. I replaced it because my Fitbit broke. It's way better than a Fitbit. I recently gave to a friend because I upgraded to the Active 2 and love that one as well. I love all the features that come with the watch. The only thing I don't like is the battery life doesn't last as long for me. I have to charge daily.

    This was a gift for my mom. She loves it pairs with her android effortlessly and syncs all of the relevant data she needs. This is not bulky and the battery life is not too bad. She gets a few days once it’s charged. Adjusting some settings and doing without some notifications can greatly increase battery life. I did not like this watch for iPhone use but android connection is great

    As we all know Samsung gear and Apple watches are extremely expensive especially when you have three 4 kids that like to keep up with all the new techs and electronics. This is great for first time users at a fraction of the cost.. my kids love them and most importantly.. it doesn’t break the bank!.. it very good quality for the price and easy to use l would definitely recommend this product to everyone.
