    I got this for myself to monitor my health and exercise. I like it but I have to to keep it in a no notification mode or the battery drains too quickly.

    This is a lot more comfortable than the watch I used to use. It's smaller and thinner than my old watch. Very stylish too.

    Very easy to use. We are a relatively older couple. Once the watch Wes initiated it is easy to use. It is as advertised.

    I purchased this after my Gearfit2 screen went dead. Prior to that, I owner the Gearfit which also had issues after about a year of owning it. Needless to say, I have not been overly impressed with the quality of the Samsung watches. I should say that I try to be pretty gentle with them - even removing my watch when I shower despite the fact that they are supposed to be water resistant. The Galaxy watch is larger and heavier than my previous GearFit2 and I hope that means it is more durable. I definitely like the larger screen size and the watch has worked perfectly so far.

    I love this watch. It does everything that I need and more. I would say they only downside would be that the battery only last about two days.

    This purchase was a smart purchase for me. I don't usually like to carry a wallet with me so I use the Samsung Pay feature on my watch. I also like the fact that my watch monitors my sleep pattern so I know how long I sleep. My most favourite feature is the water lock feature. Yes, this watch is water resistant but I like to use the feature when I'm washing dishes or swimming. I've never had a watch where I can respond to messages so this is the first smart watch I've purchased in a long time that allows me to respond to messages when I'm at my desk working.

    I have never had a Smart Watch before. I wanted one to use for my Samsung Health APP on my Samsung Android phone so I did not have to have my phone with me all the time when working out or just running or mostly swimming. A skeptic no more. It works flawlessly and really is waterproof. I have used it everyday swimming and was a bit nervous about it in the water. I have the Geek Squad protection so not concerned about replacement issues. All way get the Geek Squad protection for anything you buy from them.
