    Full disclosure. When I first got the watch, my battery would drain within 24 hours, no matter what I did. I went back to Best Buy and ended up exchanging it for a new one. I now average about 5 days battery life with AOD off, notifications on, and Do Not Disturb turned on from 10-7am. I love that I can wear this in the shower and not have to worry about ruining it. It does not feel too heavy on my wrist either. The display is great. I can see the screen easily in bright sunlight. My wife has an Apple Watch and she has to charge hers every night. I actually use mine as an alarm and it tracks my sleep since I only have to charge it every 5 days. It takes about 2.5 hours to charge it as well. The only downside to this watch is there are not a lot of Tiezen apps yet. If they had more apps, I'd give the watch 5 stars.

    Totally LOVE my new Samsung Galaxy Watch! Bought the 46mm one and fits perfect! - Health and Wellness (Up to 39+ Workouts on the new Galaxy Watch)! - Battery (Lasted me 3.5 days 80% on the first charge and 6 full days on my second charge at 100%)! - Durability ( Display has Corning Gorilla Glass DX+ & love how durable it is, the body is scratch proof)! - Swim Ready ( 5 Feet Under Water for 30 minutes) Haven't tested this yet but very impressive! I feel with this Galaxy Watch I have peace of mind! Highly Recommend!! 5 STAR All The Way!

    Minor flaws keep it from a 5-star

    I like the watch, I really do. Virtually everything it needs to do, it does. The size is perfect. The multitude of watch faces makes it feel like a different watch every time you change them. My only issues are the following: The process it takes to change the wrist bands could have been a much simpler process. The minuscule size of the pins is really annoying. Also, the availability of apps is pretty slim. I'm not expecting it to have everything my phone has, because that's what my phone is for. But I switched the messaging app on my phone and now I don't get notifications on my watch when a text comes in. I can't find the app that I'm using available for the watch. It's a very common messaging app too. Again, minor issues for an overall great watch.

    I went to this watch from a FitBit Ionic that no longer connected with my phone. It has a lot more features than the Fitbit and is a lot easier to use. I did not like it at first (in fact I bought one several months prior and took it back) but now has become my favorite smart watch. It is just the right size, looks really good, and has a lot of third party accessories that you can easily find (and they are affordable). The app is also very good and easy to use.

    Mediocre product

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

    I got this watch end of November/ early December 2018 from BB. In about 1.5 weeks the bezel started to stick and required way more force to turn. I put up with this nuisance since there are ways around, and once really doesnt need to use the bezel. About 3 weeks into the using this, the LCD display seemed to fail- see photo(s) below. Fortunately I was able to exchange it because of BBs extended return policy for the holidays. This I did end of December, The second new watch also has a sticky bezel that cannot be easuily rotated within 1 - 1.5 weeks of using it. Why not 1 star- because I have a Samsung S8 phone and the watch otherwise integrates well with the phone, and has good functionality. If the display hadnt failed and the sticky bezel was the only issue, "I would recommend to a friend"

    Have been reading reviews and even though many newer models have come out on the market from Samsung, reviewers still sing the praises for the original Samsung Galaxy Watch 46mm. I have found it to be pretty easy to figure out and am thrilled that there are so many helpful topics for this watch on YouTube. This is my first "smart watch" and I am expecting it to be, like all of my other Samsung devices, an excellent product that will last a long time.

    I love the new features on the Galaxy Watch as compared to the Galaxy Gear S3 watch. The buttons on the side have a slimmer profile and feels more structurally sound. Some of the new widgets in this operating system are a lot more functional as well. All in all, I am very pleased. The battery life is amazing. I can go four full days with moderate to heavy use on a full charge, and it charges amazingly fast as well. At this point, I take it off to charge when I take a shower in the morning and and night and that's about it and I've not run low yet.

    Bought the Galaxy Smartwatch to replace a Fitbit Blaze, which had served me well. When I got the watch home, I proceeded to unbox the watch. The contents included the following items: Galaxy Watch (With large 22mm band attached) Small 20mm band Samsung USB Travel Adapter Mini USB cable Wireless Charging Dock After the unboxing, I put the watch on my wrist. The first thing I noticed was the fairly generous screen size, which comes in at 1.3 inches. The screen itself is a Super AMOLED display, with a screen resolution of 360x360 pixels and covered with Corning Gorilla Glass DX+. The widgets that come pre-installed with the app are the same as ones that you would find on any samsung smartphone. There are plenty to choose from. To be able to use this watch to it's full potential, the samsung wearables app will need to be downloaded from the google play store. The wearables app will let you change what apps you would like, add apps and widgets etc (which you can do from the watch as well, but it is easier with the app). Since the Galaxy watch uses the Tizen Operating System (Samsung's proprietary operating system used on the galaxy watch) you will need to have the galaxy store app, in order to download watch faces and apps onto the galaxy watch. You will not be able to download watch faces and apps for the galaxy watch from the google play store. The only minor complaint I have about this watch is the silicone band that comes with it. Silicone irritates my skin, so I had to go buy a stainless steel mesh band. Obviously, not samsung's fault, but thought I would put this out there in case some people have skin allergies and need to get an alternate band, which are plentiful. In conclusion, I have really enjoyed owning the galaxy watch thus far. Good features, which are customizable to your liking, striking design and ease of use all make this watch a joy to own.

    This is my 2nd smart watch if you consider the gear fit as one. The look and build is amazing. The weight is not as heavy as others state. I am a daily watch wearer, so to say it feels normal means something. The features are numerous, the build is top notch. Fantastic purchase IMHO. The only con for me is there battery life is not as long as advertised. If you say 4 days, then it should be 4 days. I purchased the non LTE model so that is not the excuse. I do get a full 2 days, so in the long run it works get for my needs. Overall it gets 4.5 out of for me with the only con there actual battery life. Best buy gets a 5 out of 5 for in stock and customer service. As a side note, i'm a Manager at Wal-Mart and love shopping at Best Buy.

    This watch was an impulse buy that I wasn't sure I'd really enjoy using that much. But I was completely wrong. Since buying it, the galaxy watch has been attached to me constantly. It has an incredible battery life that keeps surprising me with how long it lasts. All the different apps and widgets I've found to be incredibly helpful. The look is sleek and professional and I enjoy wearing it and showing it off as often as I can. Love the product, blew me away.

    Had the original Apple Watch and had to upgrade when I got the new Galaxy S10 Plus. I wanted this watch when it was debuted, and it has not disappointed. The battery life is insane with me getting easily four days of use with all notifications coming to my watch. Sleep tracking is pretty good. The bezel is great to navigate around, and I get so much more information from the notifications than I did on my Apple Watch.
