    I've really enjoyed this watch. I got it mainly to help me with my health goals and it has been amazing for it. I end up using the call features all the time, especially when I am carrying something or working on something where holding my phone would be hard. The battery is fairly good with some charges lasting me up to 3 days. I have had one issue with the watch screen turning a dual color once and not brighting back up but I turned it off and then back on and it fixed itself. This is my first smart watch but I think I spent the money in the right place.

    I love this smartwatch! I use it evey day since it is the perfect size and has a beautiful rose gold tone which looks so nice on a woman! I track my walking, heatbeat and sleep. It even tracks my stress levels. When making a phone call the volume is perfect and can be heard clearly. The only con I see is when answering texts it is a little frustrating since the keypad is like and old blackberry keypad. I would have liked it if it had a camera, even my 6 yr old daughters vtech watch has one lol. Other than that I LOVE it!!!

    I used to own an iWatch, but switched over to this watch after my Samsung Galaxy S9+. I wasn't sure how much I would love it, because my iWatch was ok to me. But this watch not only does what my iWatch did, but it goes with every outfit I wear. I love the rose gold color. I wear it everyday day, never leave the house without it. If I could I would change the thickness of the watch. I wish the watch would be slimmer a bit. It does protrude out a lot more than I would like, it is no SKAGEN watch, but overall I am happy!

    It's worth the price. Nice and elegant, and in the same time you can answer to all of your calls, respond to text messages, watch your calories, etc. No so accurate heart rate. So far so good.

    BEST WATCH EVER!!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This watch does not disappoint! I did plenty of research on this watch before purchasing. Not only did I watch a ton of videos but I read a lot of reviews. I previously had a Samsung Fit Pro that I purchased refurbished from Best Buy which was great! Then I purchased this Samsung Watch when it was on sale for $279 BRAND NEW and I do not regret it. I am a fan of Samsung products and this watch goes perfect with my note8. I love that you can customize this watch with apps (calendar, weather, reminders, contacts, news, fitness, etc), faces and tones, etc. Receiving text messages and being able to respond from it quickly is awesome. The quality of the speaker when taking a phone call is loud. I’ve asked people on the other end how it sounds and they thought I was talking on my phone. The high quality speakerphone is definitely there! The ringtone options are nice and also loud enough. I actually had to turn it down as it is rather loud indoors. It should work great outside! There’s nothing that I dislike OTHER THAN the silicone band. I did order a couple Milanese bands online to switch out, just waiting for that to come in. Other than that, I love everything about my Samsung watch! I purchased the midnight black although the rose gold is beautiful, but black goes with everything and I figured I could add color with the bands and watch face options. If you are looking to purchase this watch, don’t think anymore about it, just do it! Lol. Excellent build, technology and quality! I love my watch, you will too!

    I replaced my Samsung Gear 2 (after having owned it and using daily for over 2 years - and it still works perfect) with this watch only because I REALLY wanted the rose gold color! Both watches are amazing. I owned Fitbits in the past and they are nowhere near the quality of the Samsung Watches. I switched from an Apple phone to Samsung phone and my Fitbits would not pair at all to my S8. I tried multiple models. I made the jump to Samsung watch and now the Fitbits seem cheaply made.

    One Big Issue

    Heart rate readings seem a bit spotty but were okay for my purposes. I really like being able to answer calls on it too. The biggest issue I have with Samsung watches is the heart rate monitor cover. I've owned about 3 different Samsung watch models and have had to replace them all (thank goodness for geek squad protection plans) because the heart rate monitor cover came off. This seems like a design flaw and at this point I will not purchase another Samsung watch until they change how the heart rate monitor part is assembled. It seems to just be glued on and it cannot stand up to sweat.

    This watch has absolutely changed my fitness. As an avid gym goer this watch is great for tracking workouts, calories burned, even sleep so you can gauge how well rested you are as well. On top of that all of its other everyday features are great (weather, the fact that it's a watch in general, reminders, etc). I cannot believe how helpful the find my phone feature is as well. Overall I would reccomend this, make sure during workouts you tighten the band so it gets a good read on your heart beat.

    I've had to adjust to the size to keep from hitting it on things, but I love the look (rose gold) and feel like Samsung finally tried to give women a smart watch! Even with my small wrist I can wear this. Just wish my carrier supported the LTE version. It would be nice to walk my dogs without having to carry a big phone. Great functionality! Love the rotating bezel. Makes it so easy to maneuver around. For my wants and needs, it hits just about all of them. Wish Bixby would improve but I love the watch.
