    Didnt think I would like this as I dont wear watches normally. Working out recently has made me want to try one in order to track steps and such. That being said, I took a chance and guys this watch is amazing. I dont care that it is couple generations old. Still feels premium. Super comfy. The 40mm is perfect for me as I have quite small wrists for a guy. It looks great and functions wonderfully. Looking for a cheaper smart watch but wanting to stay in the Samsung environment? This is the watch! Get it!

    This was a mother’s day gift for my wife. I have an iPhone so I use an applewatch, but my wife has a Samsung phone, and she had surgery for thyroid cancer, which affects her heart rate as well, so she would borrow my watch to check her ekg or heart rate. Now, I know she would benefit from a Smart watch with the same features, that’s why I finally got her a Galaxy Smartwatch.

    Love my watch! Great sleek design and the rose gold jsnt over powering. I appreciate the feautures of clicking on the steps icon and it giving a descriptive analysis of the calories burned, when you have the most movement, distance, and goals. I wanted this watch to keep track of my running progress, but i have been using to track so much more! It has helped me keep track of my sleep, body fat, and stress levels. This has been a game changer. I love the feature of talking into text, writing, or using the keyboard. Overall, i only change the watch once per day so it has great battery life.

    I love this watch. I wear it everyday. It's very accurate with my workouts. Ive had it a little over a year now and the batter is starting to not last as long. This happened with my last samsung as well. With the gerk squad warranty it was replaced and i will have to fo the same woth this watch also. I dont have a ton of stuff on the watch and its not really beijg used all day. Just worn all day. Its going dead by 6pm and I'm charging it wvey night. Everything else about it I love and will continue to always use a samsung smart watch.

    So far so good!! Loving the new feature of being able to talk through my watch. I'm sure it will get old soon, LOL. Tying to get used to the home button and back button being switch from the original version is always fun but seriously that seems to be my only system issue. I do have one issue with the band. It doesn't seem to flex to my small wrist. I cant make the band tighter without squeezing my wrist so it just protrudes and I can stick my whole finger into the gap. OH wait, the battery seems to run out faster BUT I may be using a whole lot of new features that weren't available on my original series. Hopefully I can winnow what I need and what I don't and that will decrease how often I need to charge. Everyday doesn't really work for me!!

    I am upgrading from the Galaxy watch active 2. This watch is pretty much an upgrade in every way. It feels a lot smoother to interact with. Also, I really appreciate the Google integration with Galaxy. Previously on the Galaxy watch active 2. There was only tizen OS which limited me to using Samsung services if I wanted full functionality. However, with Google integration I can use Google messages, Google assistance, Google phone etc. The battery life is pretty good. Just the other day I got 36 hours of battery life without any active exercise. However, if I go for a run or something it will last about half of that. But it'll still last me the entire day. So definitely not anything in the same league as Garmin but for a smartwatch with all its capabilities, I think the battery life is great. With the Google Pixel watch being such a flop, I think this is definitely the go-to Android smartwatch.

    The watch is good but the batter backup is quite less. I loved the sleep tracker and the health related metrics it helped me keep track of the heart especially because i have a heart condition and it helped me to track my heart beat and the ecg is worked as expected. The bpm os accurate and step count as well. I have used it during the workout sessions which is quite heavy on the battery it drains faster. Overall a good pick for price rage below 200$.

    I really like this watch a lot, mainly for the style and its ability to track steps pretty well, however, the battery is horrendous! If you're up by 6am, in one day, it's dead before you go to bed. It's supposed to hold "20 hours" however it feels like much less, and that's not a lot to start with. You have to charge it every night, so even though it has sleep monitoring features, you can never use them. Also, if you tell it to track your hiking status... on a 9 mile round trip hike, the watch died half way on the trek back to the car. I'd love it if it wasn’t for the miserable battery capacity. In the end I bought a Garmin Venu SQ2 Music (which has battery for 6-9 days) for my hikes, and I guess I'll use my Samsung Galaxy Watch4 at work.

    This watch is amazing. I didn't result want one but everyone has them, so I bought it and thought I wild probably end up returning it. I haven't-I absolutely love it. I can't believe how easy it is to work with. I use it for everything- for quickly checking a text to my sleep cycles. I will say, I guy the smaller face because I think it like nicer but I get why people do the larger one-it is easier to read texts and emails on. But I still like the small one best fit a sleeker look. Overall, I'm happy and we're looking at getting one for my spouse too!

    First day the battery life was pretty terrible bit after that it can last a day or sometimes 2. It last all day with heart rate monitoring and stress monitoring all day long. I like being able to put my music on it and either listen from the watch or my bluetooth earbuds and I don't even need my gigantic phone to listen to the music when the files are stored onto the watch. I wish it had a more watch faces and a little more color customization on the watch faces but I do see they are bringing those changes in the new beta update of the watch which I don't have downloaded just in case it makes the watch buggy, i'll just wait for the final version to come out later this year. The watch charges fast as well.

    While i miss my original Samsung galaxy watch, this one is a awesome replacement. Its sleeker and the hidden strap is genius, the old strap used to slip and catch on things when i was busy and now i no longer have that problem. It also has a longer battery life than my old one. And i enjoy the ability to customize the watch face for exactly what i need to see and use most often on the watch.

    My experience with the Galaxy Watch 4 in black has been nothing short of transformational. This smartwatch has seamlessly woven its way into my daily life, becoming an indispensable companion. The sleek black design not only looks stylish but also feels incredibly comfortable on my wrist. The display, with its vibrant colors and sharp resolution, has become my go-to for checking notifications, tracking my health, and even enjoying a moment of relaxation with a variety of watch faces. The fitness and health features are a highlight. It accurately measures my heart rate, tracks my sleep patterns, and provides real-time workout data that keeps me motivated. I appreciate the extensive library of workout modes and the watch's ability to auto-detect exercises. Pairing the Galaxy Watch 4 with my Samsung smartphone is a breeze, enabling me to manage calls, texts, and control my smart home devices from my wrist. The watch's battery life is commendable, easily lasting a full day, even when I use it intensively. As I continue to explore the expanding galaxy of apps available on this watch, it's clear that it's more than a timepiece; it's a multifaceted extension of my digital life. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 in black has truly changed the way I approach my day, enhancing my style, keeping me healthy, and adding convenience to my life. It's a must-have for anyone in search of a premium smartwatch.

    Actually amazing. I was skeptical but i am so glad to listen to my friends. I use it for working out and tracking my sleep schedual and so much more then i thought. Worth the money. Def buy a case and screen protector though if you have a job where it gets banged around allot. Battery lasts about 2 days when you do have it constently notifying you:)
