    It was cool at first, but then just kept getting in the way due to anxiety of breaking it.

    This watch is nice looking with a lot of features but unfortunately the steps are way off. I shopped aloft 8 hours one day and it said I only had 1000 steps. I went up several flights of stairs and it didnt even register any. Very disappointing for a Samsung product.

    I will preface this review by saying that I paired this with my iPhoneX and wanted to give a different perspective from someone "currently" not in the Android or Samsung camp. Also, this review is for the 42mm Midnight Black version, not the 46mm Stainless Steel. I have had quite a bit of experience with Android Wear (now Wear OS) with older watches like the Moto360 and the LG Urbane LTE second edition. I also had the S7 Edge along with the Gear S2. With that being said, my initial impressions are generally positive. The basics come in the box, including a wall plug with the standard Samsung Wireless dock, instruction manual, and an extended strap for those with larger wrists (like myself). Now for the pros and cons! Pros: -Wrist detection works great -the assortment of watch faces is a definite plus. Also, older faces that I purchased for the S2, still work. And I am happy to see that the online store , still has an abundance of other faces to choose from -Paired very quickly and pretty seemlessly with the iPhone -side buttons are firm, with little to no play in response time -Strong vibration motor for those times when you have to turn off notification sounds -the speaker and microphone are both also impressive for a watch. I made a few calls to family, and they said they could hear me loud and clear. Granted I was not somewhere extremely noisy, but I also heard them -Notifications were snappy -Fitness tracking apps worked as advertised, and is on par with most other tracking wearable out there, including watches from other companies. -Watch bands are easily replaced, if you do not like the cheap feeling rubber ones that come with it. -The screen is BEAUTIFUL and the colors are vibrant for a watch! Cons: -Tizen OS is STILL limited in app selection! - Smaller battery= less usage. I managed to get about a day before I had to recharge it again but I also rely heavily on my devices -Voice control is non-existent when paired with an iPhone - No actual way to reply to any messages, only read them. -Bixby is still very cold sounding. Compared to the other digital assistants out there, I would put Bixby at the bottom as it still needs alot of work With that all out of the way, I like this watch. It is a bit thicker then I am used to, but with all the tech packed inside, its understandable. Tizen has always been the achilles heel of the wearable line of devices for Samsung, but since my last tinkering with it, I will say it has grown in app size and improved. Someone with a Samsung phone that is already invested into their own little ecosystem, will not be disappointed with this watch. It is a good looking device and has a pretty good build quality. Those with past Tizen experience, will be happy to know that any watch faces or apps that you purchased in the past, should work just fine as well. BUT if you are looking to use this with something like an iPhone, be prepared to lose a bunch of functionality. In closing, yes I would recommend this to someone on the fence.
