    This is a great watch! I previously had the Watch 7 and that was my first smartwatch. The biggest upgrade to this watch, in my opinion, is how it sits flatter on your wrist. It really does make a huge difference in comfort and functionality. The sport band is both comfortable and durable and the UI and Google Gemini works very well. It is also extremely customizable, with plenty of watch faces to choose from right out of the box and countless others available for purchase, so you are able to prioritize whatever features best suit your lifestyle. The battery life isn't the greatest but it gets you through the day, so not really a huge deal. It also charges very quickly. If you're already a watch 7 owner and are perfectly comfortable with that, would it be worth upgrading? Probably not, But you also probably wouldn't regret it if you did.

    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.

    Really like the watch, very comfortable and easy to set up and use. My previous watch was an Amazfit and had a 2 week battery life. This one doesn't even last 2 days but I was aware of that when I made the decision to purchase it.

    Upgraded from a much older Galaxy Watch for my son. Watch has all the latest apps that he wants and helps him to stay active by monitoring his activity level. This is beneficial to him, as he's autistic and likes having this information available to him.

    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.

    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.

    Purchased this watch for my wife for Christmas. She loves the watch. She has smaller size wrists and hands, she likes the way it fits and is not too large. Quality watch, long battery life with a nice band. Likes the app’s and the cellular GPS.
