    I have to charge my watch every day. In the review for your phone it says the battery will last up to 3days. Yeah ok. Waist of money. I was so excited to get this and now I wish I didn't. I only got it cause my fit bit wasn't compatible with new phone

    Sleek smartwatch

    This smartwatch is very sleek and looks great when wearing. People wont notice youre wearing a smartwatch because of its high end finish. The circular shape is beautiful compared to a rectangle like the apple watch. Features are good and also affordable compared to other galaxy watches. Does all I need it to do in terms of tracking.

    Love this watch. Went back and forth for a while trying to decide on this one or the Active 2. I wasnt concerned with calling people through the phone. It has been great for uploading my music and going for runs without my phone. Seems pretty accurate as far as steps and mileage. I'm happy with this watch.

    I debated getting the Active 2, but after reading several articles, it seemed the original Active would be the better choice. It syncs perfectly with my phone, and while I can't make calls from it, I can record reminders. I purchased it when them were having a wonderful sale on it and I'm so glad I did.

    I like the small circle screen compared to the larger one or even the weird square ones. The features are great, I'm still figuring some things out but it does a great job tracking my workouts and syncing to my phone. The range isn't that far but I guess that's a good thing in case I forget my phone, it'll vibrate to let me know.

    This was a replacement for a Fit Bit. Love this watch. It has almost everything. The only thing that I'm missing on this is the ability of the watch to track your steps while you push a grocery cart. I miss that unless it is a feature which I just haven't figured out how to do.
