    I usually buy Fitbits, someone at work had recently purchased this Samsung watch. It is very nice looking and does everything the higher end fitbits do.

    I bought this for my wife for mother's day. She loves the watch. Her only complaint is that the screen scratched WAY too easily. So for that, I took off too stars. She works in customer service and something minor brushed her watch face and left several scratches. For comparison's sake, I work in construction and have been wearing a Fitbit (which has a less durable glass) for the last year, and my screen has less severe scratches.

    Very nice, a little pricey if you consider that this is a very old model, but at least looks nearly identical to the newer ones.
