i like it except for when it freezes.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like almost everything about the watch. Every now and then it freezes and it is hard to turn it off to reset it.

Very disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Even with MOST of the features turned off (and then what is the point of a smart watch?) I cannot get 24 hours. Have to charge 2ce a day. TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Ignore this
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Build quality and feel is good but features are very minimal. You cant take calls, cant view or reply to messages. Most of the times didn’t receive call notifications. Returned after two weeks of usage. Prefer for next version or other different brand but dont go for this. For 150, you can get smart watches with better features
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNice watch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not overly user friendly but nice watch. It takes some time to get used to out of the box.

Returned
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fully charged the 1st day and it said I only had 1 day 14 hours of battery life. It was very difficult to operate. I returned it and went for the Fitbit 3 HR and I'm very pleased. Sorry Samsung I'm sticking with just your phone.

Returned after 1 week
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace my Fitbit that died. This watch is nice but needed charged every 36 hours, it didn't pick up in my workouts unless I chose what I was doing, which just wastes time when you want fluidity. I returned it and bought the Fitbit Sense.

Great watch.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great watch even though it constantly disconnects from my phone. Aside from that it works great.
I would recommend this to a friendNot very good for being active
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this watch with the intentions of it being useful during my workouts but, every single time I sweat (even just a little) the dial on the face will change. If I'm trying to log a workout while using the watch, it'll constantly pause because it gets a little sweat on it. Kinda defeats the whole purpose of being an active style watch.
