    I like the watch very much. Still have bit of a learning curve but super nice to have and not have to look at a phone when a text comes in. Planning to use more apps with the phone in the future. Battery life is a little short

    The Galaxy 5 is a really nice watch. Still working through everything it's capable of. Lightweight, and good looking. Nice and bright and excellent color. Good battery life. Would recommend.

    I upgraded my old Samsung Gear Fit (which still worked seven years later) to the Galaxy 5. Absolutely love it. The large face is easy to read, I can even see my security camera clips on it. This thing has so many new features that I still have not even seen them all. The charger is fantastic, no plugging it in, just set it on there. Battery lasts easily all day. Numerous choices of looks and endless apps available. Love it! Five stars! Best Buy personnel were great helping me decide from all of the options I wanted.

    Fits nicely on small wrist. Not as bulky as i thought it would be. I enjoy the different design and ability to change clock faces. Lots of options.

    It is what is promised. A watch that is built with quality. Fairly good ease of set-up with apps and syncing with your phone.

    Love all the features on the watch. Sleep tracking is great, even picked up my nap today. I knew the battery wasn't great but i can barely make it a whole day even with turning off most draining apps. But i do like that it is fully charged within an hour, or enough in 10-15m to get through the night. Also have not been able to leave my phone at home yet because I'm having trouble with ATT and their numbersync

    Bought the first one and had to return for battery duration issue. The second watch had to be sent to Samsung for repair twice for the same issue. The second time was sent back as unrepaired. Would die after 19 hours of use with everything turned off.

    Got the newer version due to my Galaxy 4 breaking after about 2 years. Should have gotten another Galaxy 4. The battery life on this watch is horrible. It dies in less than 24 hours. I had it for about 2 months and started regretting it the first week. It's currently sitting on my dresser collecting dust.

    still need to add cellular service but wifi connected to my phone it works flawlessly. I also have that weird wrist bone that sticks up and have not been able to wear a watch comfortably but because the sensor on the back it raises it up just enough where i dont have that problem. I love it

    Bought this for my wife after trying to go with just an inexpensive activity-tracker style band. This has been well worth the money as it does all of the health activity items as well as the smartwatch capabilities that she has enjoyed having available.
