    He likes it, but says he has a ton to learn. Doesn’t seem to calculate his sleep or steps properly. Not sure if user error. Time will tell. It is a very nice looking functional watch.

    This watch is straight out of Dick Tracy. I can see my text messages,my phone calls, different apps all appear on my watch. Yes I can talk on it to. There have been several upgrade since I have bought the watch and every upgrade makes it better. The only improvement would be to call volume. Since the watch is on your wrist it muffles the volume somewhat. There are plenty of watch faces to choose from. The health part is great. It reminds you to move if you haven't done so in a long time.

    I am a licensed plumber and I am often in areas where it is difficult to get to my phone, so being able to make and receive calls on my watch is awesome. I've gotten this watch wet, and even muddy, but I usually try to cover it with a sports wristband to protect it from being scratched, or cracked. So, far it hasn't been scratched or cracked and I have worn it in some really rough places.

    This is my second smart watch. I had a Huawei and it was .. okay. But this one looks sharp and does a lot. I really like the Samsung Health app. It can monitor your heart rate throughout the day and encourages you to meet your steps goals. The movable bezel is a nice touch when there are a lot of menu items to choose from because rotating the bezel moves the pointer to the next item. There are only 2 buttons ("Back" and "Home") to keep things simple. And the face of the watch is somewhat protected by the bezel.

    First for the good, This is a pretty watch and has many personalized face setting you can change it to depending on your mood and has many apps you can load. Now the not so good, Watch is heavy and always slids to the side of my wrist. Does not track accurate steps and motion, I can be up moving around walking and it'll alert me that I have been inactive for an hour now and need to get up and move. And texting replies is not easy and if you "draw" your reply it is a sslllloooowwww drawn out process and saves each letter you write to your pictures.

    It is a bit big as I'm accustom to wearing petite watches. However, you get a lot on this watch which I love. And it appears to be rather accurate compared to the Samsungs older smart wear watches. I bought this for my daughter for Christmas and liked it so much, that I bought one for myself. My daughters is bit too sensitive and it swipes from one screen to the next even when her shirt sleeve, or bed cover touches it. Mine doesn't do this, and requires my finger to swipe the screens. But both of use love our watches.

    Had the previous version of the Galaxy watch, but it was too large for my wrist. Upgraded to the smaller size, and love it much better.

    This watch is just a fun watch to own. I can leave my phone in my bag and see, and answer, any text or call I want. Without picking up the phone. The UI is the best of all smart watches in my view because they use the bezel around the watch to move around. Yes there is touch screen capability but the bezel is so good you may not use it much. The downside is that Bixby is not google voice. It really is meant to answer phone related questions like what is the weather or list my appointments today. Not, what is the circumference of the moon? It is beautiful and rugged. I took it SCUBA diving (below 50 feet) and it was just fine. 41ft for 31 minutes and no problem.
