    I was looking for a smart watch that was compatible with my android phone. it works great but got just a little bit of water on it and now it doesn't work wasnt under water or anything. sd water resistant but that part could be better 200.down the drain. I would spend the money and make sure I get a water proof next time around

    If you have ever had an Apple Watch then do not get it . It’s not as interactive and not as easy to read

    i bought this watch for my sons birtday. it wont turn on which seems to be a regular problem with this watch. I find out that best buy wont take this defect watch that never worked back because they only give 15 days from order. My sons birthday was after the returnable date, never seen a poor service like Best buy's. This is ridiculous. I will never buy from best buy again !

    the watch just went black, and I am abroad and nothing can be done, no one knows how to fix it, it vibrates, shows the connection number on the phone but remains unresponsive. This is probably the worst product I have bought from best buy. I don't like the fact that I cannot repair service from best buy or any warranty service

    I've had this watch exactly one year and the sensor cover on the back has come off while working out and sweat must have gotten inside and now the watch is defective. The watch now displays everything in a weird pink color and the screen constantly glitches. Not happy at all with this purchase!!!

    I had to exchange the first 1 then got the second and it does the same thing, called the store and they told me to do it online, went online and they said the exchange was already in process to call the store. I call the store and they say do it online. so now I stuck with a watch that worked 1 day and lost my money on it because no one can help me get it exchanged.

    Doesn't hold a candle to the Galaxy 3 frontier! It has less features and seem to be more fit for a female, in my opinion.
