    I like the watch and how it operates but i just wasn't satisfied with the face size of the watch. I wanted something a little bigger. So, I decided to return it for the 44mm size. Besides that, the watch is really nice.

    I got this for my wife for Christmas this year. She had a Fitbit Versa but was looking for something with more functionality. I think her favorite feature is that she can compose text messages from the watch. The screen is easy to read and looks great.

    I love how I can get me texts on my watch, allows me to not have to constantly look at my phone when I am expecting an important message. Love all the apps you can put on it to keep me healthy as well. High quality band, and very easy to personalize to your taste.

    The watch has a lot of good features however you cannot talk or make phone calls on your watch. You did have to be withing a close proximity of your phone for your watch to be connected and the battery dies really quick

    I love this watch, it's convenient when I am away from my phone and tend to miss calls when I do and this helps me catch the call. It has a lot of great features. I have the ladies' version and my husband has the man's version as well.

    I bought this under the misconception that I could make and receive calls from this watch. You cannot. You can read, send, and receive texts and see incoming calls though. I am still giving it five stars because it was easy to use and it did a lot of great functions.

    I bought it for my wife and she is really enjoying. Keeps her connected all the time. She also enjoys the fact she could use it as a stand alone phone to get calls, notifications and others. She loves using it to track her daily steps.

    A full charge will barely get you through a single day and I don't even do much during the day except sit around at home or be on the computer. Everything else is nice like the features and connectivity.

    Best watch ever for my Samsung phone. As soon as you pair it to your phone, no need to look at any instructions. It also keeps you moving with it's exercise and stress measure features. The watch doesn’t have sound but, it dose take voice commands.

    This is my first smartwatch and I am not a technical savvy person. I do own a Samsung phone and it was easy to pair up with my phone. It's a simple, easy to use/figure out smartwatch which is exactly what I wanted. 4 stars because sometimes the touch screen doesn't respond.

    Got the watch for Christmas to keep track of my steps. It gives you a reminder to get moving if you have been sitting too long, which I love! And you can change the face of the watch through the App on your phone. The wrist band is very comfortable.

    Nice looking watch. I found a free watch face which I like a lot. It tracks my steps and heart rate well. It doesn't seem to record my biking activity correctly, but I get that information from another source. Nice connectivity to my phone for more detail.

    The watch was great. I loved changing the face. It worked well with my samsung phone. If I had nothing to do it would be invaluable. After I got over the excitement of a new toy, I realized it was just an over priced annoying bauble. I took it back for a refund.

    Stopped in to pick up a new iphone for our daughter and ran across the Samsung Galaxy Watch. It was very good looking and offered more features than my fitbit. Price was right and our store salesman, Mason is AWESOME. Trust him and his suggestions completely. :)

    I have had smart watches, this one was nice, fast, the only thing it would not sync with my older samsung tablet, which I have used for previous watches, screen was a bit small for my bad eye sight. Otherwise, I think people will be happy with it, lots of apps to install on it

    I had the Samsung gear s3. At first look it seems like the same product with Just a different look. I was wrong this watch has more features and the specs are better. I am definitely happy about this purchase. It is also lightweight and cant tell that it's on my wrist.

    This watch is awesome for Samsung phones but under performs with Apple products. I love mine for that reason but since my daughter has an iPhone it didn't work with hers very well because you cant respond to emails and messages.

    The watch itself is an excellent option for every day where and it's many accessible apps with your smartphone. I bought this watch for my wife. The only gripe that she has is that the Google fit app is not calculating accurately when she works out. Pl

    Perhaps it's me but there is an adjustment period for the watch. I initially had a Garmin that did not have as many functions as the Galaxy Samsung. The steps, heart rate and wellness are easily displayed along with time of day which is great. I continue to learn daily.
