    Purchased this watch as a gift for my wife at Christmas she has talked about it for some time of purchasing a smart watch. After reviewing this watch on line it seemed to be the better choice of all smart watches. So far I've received many compliments on my selection She is tickled pink over Rose Gold

    This watch does everything I wanted. From messages, email, my phone notifications, counting steps, calories, heart rate and a lot more. It’s everything I wanted. I got the rose color and it’s very pretty. I love that there are so many different options for watch faces also. Love it! Excellent purchase!!

    After buying one myself after my Fitbit broke I decided that this would also make a great birthday present for my wife so I bought her the rose gold edition. just watch will do anything even things you wouldn't conceivably ever want to do on a watch like watch YouTube videos. I highly recommend this.

    The Samsung Galaxy (42mm) watch is a nice improvement over its predecessor. It is sleeker, water resistant and handles most of my daily needs for information at a glance. The only caveat is the battery life. While better than my older model, it still only lasts a day and a half so use while traveling is not ideal. Since at home I charge it daily, this had not been an issue. All in all, this is great value for the cost.

    I have the Galaxy S8 and this watch paired perfectly with it. I like all of the options with it, like changing the look of face and what applications to use on watch and what order to put them in. Then there is the added bonus of making phone calls and text messages on the watch.

    I previously had a Gear Fit 2, which looked like a fitness tracker and which couldn't reliably count stairs. This watch does much better, plus it looks like a watch! Even on my tiny wrist it looks OK. It's nice that Samsung includes two sizes of band! Display is super sharp and easy to read in sunlight.

    Bought this for my husband as an early Christmas gift while it was on sale. He is loving it so far! We debated between a Fitbit versa and this, but boy are we glad we went with this watch instead! The only tricky thing with it is him having a Google Pixel phone and receiving the text messages. It’s in the settings though and the Samsung rep at our Best Buy helped right away with that so now he loves it even more!

    Moved up from the Gear S3 and so far very happy with the choice. Watch, weather, texts, steps and floors and a fairly decent golf watch besides. (Had to pay extra $$ for that). The only thing missing is a good compass. It would be nice if there were more apps and if it was a bit thinner and less weight.

    Gt this for my wife. she loves the features and the look as it looks much better than her Gear Fit. The one thing is that she uses the sleep tracking and the Galaxy Watch is too chunky for sleeping. So she just uses the Gear Fir for that and both watches sync to the Samsung Health app on the Galaxy phone.

    This watch is everything I wanted and more when I was looking for a smart watch. From having the Samsung health stuff, and Spotify to any useful gadget for everyday problems this watch is great. The only thing that holds this back is not having apps like Twitter or Facebook but you can use the internet so their's ways around it.

    Good watch but could be better.

    This watch is really well designed. The thing that makes me put it at a 4 star is the battery life, which I get about a day and a half which is good for me. The other thing is Bixby. I was expecting it to be like Bixby off the phone but it's not. If it was Bixby would be amazing on this phone. Other than those two things, this watch is amazing. Maybe in a future update, Bixby and the battery life will be better.
