    My Fitbit Versa died for the 3rd time so I upgraded to this wonderful gem. Sooo many features that I am still figuring out after 3 weeks. Best smart watch. I dont miss Fitbit at all. I loved the challenges and Fitbit community . This is definitely an upgrade.

    I've had this watch for almost a month. it is exactly what you would expect from a smartwatch. Apps and functionality are great. The click wheel is so much more user-friendly than just the swipe screen. If you have other Samsung devices oh, this watch pairs seamlessly. I've tested with the Galaxy S10 and the Galaxy Buds.

    ---- Summary ---- Disclaimer: I own a iPhone 8 Plus and use this Galaxy Watch alongside the iOS app. Pros: - Classy design - Long-lasting battery - Rotating bezel - High-quality materials - Clear and colorful display - Accurate workout tracking Cons: - None ---- Review ---- Design: When I saw this Galaxy Watch for the first time, it left a lasting impression. Now that I wear it almost every day, the design still impresses me. With its stainless steel finish and traditional round watch face that is surrounded by a rotating bezel, the Galaxy Watch differentiates itself from its biggest competitor, the Apple Watch. As a previous Apple Watch owner, I can honestly say I envied the round watch face and intricate design of the Galaxy Watch, which makes it look almost exactly like a traditional watch. Features and functionality, which I review in detail below, are important aspects of a smartwatch, but the design is also important to me, and Samsung knocks it out of the park with this latest model. Performance: I was skeptical about how well the Galaxy Watch would sync and perform since I am an iPhone owner, but that skepticism quickly went away after using the watch on a regular basis. I have only had to reconnect the watch once, and I think that was because of an issue with my iPhone, which I had to turn off and back on. I have not had any syncing issues since then. Everything runs smoothly with little to no delay while acting on notifications and navigating on the watch. Fortunately, there has been no lag, and all notifications have appeared promptly. Features: Among many other great features, the Galaxy Watch excels at fitness tracking. With around 40 workouts that it is capable of tracking at impressive accuracy, this watch is the perfect complement to an active lifestyle. It can also measure heart rate, sleep quality, and even stress levels. Beyond health and fitness, there are many other features that are nice to have, such as “My Day”, which outlines the day ahead with calendar events, reminders and more. Spotify integration, which the Apple Watch lacks, is also admirable. Another feature definitely worth mentioning is the ability to choose between countless watch faces, each with their own unique look and way of displaying unique information. They all look great and the Galaxy Watch’s screen can be set to always on. Verdict: After owning the first generation Apple Watch, and comparing it to this Galaxy Watch, I am on team Galaxy Watch now. It is a close comparison, but the traditional watch design with high-quality materials, impressive and unique features, as well as great performance, sets the Galaxy Watch apart.

    I purchased this watch for my husband as an anniversary gift and he really love it. Because the watch has many features but the best one according to him is the one that he can watch YouTube videos without taking out his phone. Another great feature is that he can change the face of the screensaver.

    We bought 2 watches for ourselves for our anniversary gifts and we love them. We did research before we purchased and I must say this watch has the best quality and overall appearance. Very happy with our purchase. Love that I can change my faces all the time by simply downloading.

    I love my watch! As owner of a Galaxy note 8, I own two Micheal Kors watches because the first one stopped working after just a few months. In my opinion, they cannot compare to the galaxy watch. They dropped or missed calls frequently. The Galaxy watch works great! The calls are clear and smooth. I gave it 4 stars because the battery needs to be charged every day.

    I am very pleased with my galaxy watch I bought it for health reasons (use of HR monitor) but I find that I am using the message system and being able to change watch faces to match my mood great. I also get a kick out of using the Dick Tracy talking into watch to answer my phone also great.. Hooking up my cell phone to the galaxy watch was very easy .

    Tried this watch first with my iPhone and it’s features and functionality were limited. With my Samsung 9 it works great and as expected. Too bad it won’t sink to two phones. Picture is not of stock band.
