    Samsung watches keep getting better and better. With a brighter screen, comfortable band, better battery, I could not ask for more. It's tracks your exercise activity and I like to answer the phone with Blue Tooth.

    Love the new 8 series. Seamless setup and great screen. Battery life is good and will vary depending on what you turn on. While it may be just me, the watch feels more comfortable then previous versions. Great experience so far!

    This model is more comfortable on my wrist than older Galaxy models. The display also seems brighter, and battery life is better.

    Very nice. The purchase was easy in store. It's very different comfort wise compared to my previous Samsung Galaxy watches. I've had 2 Classics and 2 Actives, but this one tops them all.

    No doubt its a great device with health features ie. tracking features, antioxidant index, adaptive running coach, ECG, blood pressure, body composition, and sleep tracking. The watch also provides practical insights and a daily energy score. Loooks unique and flat design fixes the charging issues experienced with previous design.

    My issue with this gen watch are the buttons. For me, they do not stick out enough. Other than that, I like the 44mm size, the band is same as the rest. Looks like a few more choices on the ap as far as watch face goes. I would say if you are a Samsung person and not an isheep you should get it. I wish I could leave a review after six months of use, I hate that best buy would let me leave a revie after like 20 days or so. I don't have a chance to use the item, and they want a review.

    my first smart watch

    This is my first venture into smart watches. The hardest part was finding a u tube video that talked slowly and showed good pics of options on your phone. So far so good. Very light, don't even know I'm wearing it. Charge once a day, same as my phone. I bought for the hard fall alert as my sister fell and lay on the floor for 24 hrs. For the price of an extra line on my Verizon account I have a better and cheaper medical alert. I'll never use half of the things you can do on it. But I'm fine with that.
