    We gave this watch to our Mother as a birthday gift and she absolutely loves it! I was worried she wouldn’t know how to use it and she amazes me every time she shows me something new her watch can do.

    Watch’s affect on my body

    First, let me say I love the watch. Its features of pulse, steps and tracking other activity. HOWEVER, I have observed an issue that concerns me. When I wear it, it causes my arm to go very weak and painful. My entire body has less energy and I’m exhausted at the end of the day. I have experimented by not wearing it, and I have no weakness and much more energy even into night time. I disappointed that I invested in such a great product and now cannot use it. My rating and quality is only because of the problem described above. Without this problem I would rate it higher.

    I almost returned this right out of the box...because I have very tiny wrists and thought it was just going to look way too big. I put it away until I could get time to return it. Then decided to try it on again. Charged it up and decided to try it out for a day. Love it. All it took was a few hours to decide to keep it. Not only does it look great, but has so many convenient features like text notifications, weather, music, steps, stress and heartrate features...the list could go on. It synced up quickly and easily with my Samsung A10 phone. Use that with my Samsung earbuds and I'm connected whether I'm at work or out for a walk or working in the yard. LOVE IT! So worth the money (on sale for $149!)

    being able to check thing out without having to look on my pone is great. with the work I do it comes in handy. Love the watch band also. Like the way it tucks under the band is also great i don't get it hung up on things.

    My daughter decided she needed this watch. I was skeptical. It turns out I was wrong!! It's a neat little watch with lots of little functionalities. She LOVES being able to text on it! And I LOVE that it didn't cost $300!!!

    I loved the watch until it stopped working 2 yrs after purchase. It's the 2nd Samsung watch I've owned and both went out the same way.

    I love my galaxy watch. Only complaint I have is the battery life is not good. If you are using it just as a watch it's great, but if you have any alerts or anything going to it you're lucky to get a whole day out of the charge.

    This thing is tough...

    I bought this watch mostly to track my steps, but also to have a way to check my phone hands free. I work in construction and deal with dust and dirt every day, and this thing hasn't budged. I bought a full face protector to protect it and it's done most the work. But last weekend I did the tough mudder with this thing on and I have to say it's a tough little watch. The watch was caked in mud that's was wet and dried. The button was stuck because of dried up mud and all I did was washed it off and it was back to it's normal self. For the price range and options this thing has is definitely worth it.

    I purchased this open-box item and sorted using it right away. Everything works as it should and I mainly use it to track my workouts. Very good value for the price but the screen could be bigger.

    This watch is more interesting than my old plain watch. It shows me when someone is at the door, when I get a text, neighborhood alers, and when I should get up and move.

    Got this as a gift for my sister and she really enjoys this watch. Some features are left to be desired compared to the higher gear watches but the size and weight of this one is what drove us to buy it. It does the job!

    I love getting notifications on my watch. Worn it kayaking (used water mode) I have small wrist and it works for me. I charge it every day. A longer battery life would be nice, but I would recommend.

    Has a lot of great features that when I picked it up for my wife it was only 199 the same price as the fit bit she wanted....since we have the note 9 it worked seamlessly. We want to get one for her before we went on our Disney trip since she was just told that her heart rate was race at random times the doctor put heart monitors for a month and this watch did constantly monitor her rate we went for it. We have not been disappointed, the doctor did tell us he did not trust it fully, but when you wife is passing out because of blood pressure. It has helped us keep an eye one it even though we are not expert like her doctor. Plus she likes playing with the feature and it has also helped her understand her sleep cycle......now she is not so cranky either.
