fitness watch & more
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish this model came with the high blood pressure monitor, but the upgrade price for it wasn't justified. This original version does all but that. I purchased this model during a sale promotion. A bit sensitive to touch. Smartwatch tracks all my fitness, you can customize face, widgets easily. Must download Samsung health and Wear for optimal information. Was able to link my scale to their app and track my weight goals. The watch looks great, face size is perfect on my wrist, doesn't look bulky. Battery life isn't great, if you want to track your sleep you will need to find downtime to charge up. Bixby is great on this watch as well. Lots of options on this product.

with the new update 5/5
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an awesome active watch. I was comparing this to the active 2 and after finding out they added the feature everyone seemed to enjoy the most (rotating bezel feature) through an update I couldn't pass it up for the sale price it was listed at. I've been enjoying it since I got it and so has my wife. The only small downside is it doesn't have a speaker. So you only get vibration notifications but my phone is always with me so I don't mind. Also a plus is that if you want to go on a run without your phone (interruptions) you can add music files to your watch and just connect your Bluetooth headphones to your watch and leave the phone behind.

Great watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love it, its def what I want. It's not too big like the other Samsung watch, I love the rose gold color, texting is cool, steps, and notifications. But..... like everyone is saying the battery doesnt last for few days. Mine is about 2 days then I have to charge it. I guess it depends how much you use it. The charging port doesnt hold it well, so make sure you are charging it flat. I've slept on it and I love how it tells me my sleeping pattern and when i go to bed, but like I said every other night, you need to charge it. Sometimes it's slow when you are trying to do the talk to text and be very clear and sometimes loud. Over all, I really like it. It's good for people with smaller wrist and I've got compliments and looked at.

Great for small wrists
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very happy with this watch. It is low profile, so it doesn't get caught on my clothing. I can access calculator, messages, emails, activity info, weather, calendar, voice memo, contacts with ease. I like the options for responding to messages...type, write, emoji, pre-written replies. Cons: battery needs charged daily (so do Apple products) and bluetooth does not seem to transmit very far. Works fine throughout my 3 story home, but once I go outside without my phone, it disconnects

Better than a FitBit or Spade watch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The need to recharge daily is a negative though it still tracks despite being on low power mode. I love that you can change the size of the time Display font (I can’t see regular typical font w/o glasses). The 40mm size display isn’t too large for women, even on my skinny arm, but I am more comfortable with the rose display and band. Very feminine looking. Negative is that neither the website or watch displays more than the current week details whereas the FitBit or VeryFitPro (Spade watch) websites are more easily followed, but then the watch itself is better than either of the others.

Good overall watch but could be better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch does pretty much what you expect it to. You can track your steps, workouts, agenda, and time and weather. The one feature thats missing from the watch is that you can not make phone calls directly from the watch. You will also not receive any notifications for calls or texts if the linked phone is not available. It does not feature a speaker to listen to music. You can connect bluetooth speakers or headphones to watch but will work only with watch so it will not work with phone calls you receive which is pointless. The best feature is you can add various apps and the watch has some good specs to handle most of them. Good watch if you dont need to make phone calls with it. Best if bought at reduced price.

LOVE IT!!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm coming from a gear fit to an active 2 which is amazing when comparing the two. It as a speaker so you can talk from watch, workout features, heart rate, it even monitors your stress level. Just a great watch all the way round. I gave a 4 star because the battery life is not that great, the hours it show you have left is not true, watch must be charged every night. Battery life may last you 36hrs max.

Great watch! Definitely serves it's purpose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome watch that does everything you need. However, it does have it's downfalls. It has very little storage and the operating system takes up much, if not all, of the storage after updating out of the box. I only mention this because I was looking forward to downloading music onto it and not needing my phone when going outside on a bike ride or walk, but because of the small amount of storage I wasn't able to do that. The watch also loses battery pretty fast if you have a very colorful watchface or something with a lot of white, even so though it lives for about a day and a half with a dark or less colorful watchface. Some great and handy things it does do are locating my phone when I can't find it, and vice versa, connect directly to my Bluetooth headset/earbuds, track sleep (even naps!) and exercise and give detailed d, check texts on the fly, and more!

Samsung Galaxy Watch Active
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this free with the purchase of Samsung Galaxy Watch3. It doesn't have all the 3 has, but it has potential. My wife loves it. It looks great on her. Nice little gadget overall.

Great trackers!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mainly purchased this for the step and workout tracker and got a little bit more. I do wish there were more widgets on here and that the screen was a tiny bit bigger but other than that, I really like this watch. The battery life isn't what I like it to be but its tolerable. The only thing I dislike is the material of the bands, as soon as I sweat or it gets a little damp from me washing my hands, it made my the skin around my wrist peel so I can't wear it often. I just need a regular fabric one that won't hold moisture under the bands. Still a decent watch.

Love this watch!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch is ten times better than the fitbit versa. It tracks my steps, work outs, sleep, and I can play music. I love that i have 3 ways if texting people back what I want to say and I also have quick responses to choose from. Only thing I don't like is the battery. Even with everything on low settings and still being able to use my apps, the watc in lasts about 10hrs give or take. But overall I'm very happy with it!

Good watch good price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a Fitbit one of the better ones supposedly. Also bought one of the better Garmin something 3:45. This little gadget got open box and perfect condition for 100 bucks 10 times better than either one as far as accuracy ease of use and features they might as well just throw those other ones out the door. I know they're supposed to be a big price and feature difference between fitness straps and smart watches but a good on sale smartwatch is definitely the way to go I don't need that many features and the ones that I would like they make no guarantee of their accuracy like blood pressure and I'm not paying 400 bucks for something that I use messing around on the bicycle or doing work in the yard good overall watch good price

Excellent watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch is awesome. The only part that I dislike are that I cannot answer phone calls directly through my phone or play music. Also, that the watch face screen is VERY easy to scratch. Other than that the watch is great, I love being able to track my fitness stuff without having to carry my phone.

Samsung Galaxy Smartwatch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch is really nice with all the features that I need. Only one exception. I do wish that the battery life was longer. With the night mode it will last longer, but to have it on in order to see the second hand, it uses too much juice. So in order to keep it from dying you have to make sure you charge it every night.

Good watch longer battery life than Apple Watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery life is about 36 hours. It is not 90 hours as advertised. The heart rate function and steps counter is more accurate compared to Apple Watch. I used it with my iPhone XS Max and so it don't have message nor phone call.

Best Smartwatch so far!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my wife. She loves it. Even the gray band which was not what she wanted at first. Now she likes the gray band, but it has discolored from rubbing on her jeans. We ordered replacement metal bands from Amazon and so far they are working out well. We have previously had Samsung Gear Fit, and Gear Fit Pro (both lasted only about 6 months before some main features stopped working) Thanks to Geek Squad protection we replaced all of them. Have had these Galaxy Smart watches for a year - longest any of the others lasted. LOVE it!
