    The battery life is very short, which annoys me. If you have it connected through your phone it does not last 8 h. I have to recharge the watch before going home. If it is not connect via bluetooth it will last the whole day.

    Works well, but is slower than an Apple Watch. I’ve had an Android and Galaxy watch for 2 months, but I am switching back to Apple - just seems more reliable for me. I do love the way it looks and the size much more than Apple. Love the round face, hate the square face!

    This is a great watch and does a lot of cool things. very comfortable, I barely realize I'm wearing it. It keeps your blood pressure and also a step count & compass. I use the voice recording feature instead of taking notes. If you download the apps it will do much more. I was a hold out for a while on the smart watch but now that I got I,m glad I did.
