    Product looks nice has some good features. But wouldn't do what I needed it to do. And Samsung stated it would and I followed steps. Battery life was horrible for little usage. Returned for full refund.

    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.

    Great watch, but not a fan of the band

    This is my first smartwatch and I'm really impressed with the functionality and the ease of use. I was most interested in the health features and those have exceeded my expectations. Especially the sleep tracking. My only issue has been the silicone band that's included with the watch. It caused quite a bit of irritation, which prevented me from wearing it all the time. I purchased a third-party nylond band and have had no problems since! Would absolutely recommend to any Android/Samsung user looking for a smartwatch.

    Definite improvement over my previous watch. The lack of a bezel take some getting used to but it's simple enough to use. Screen protector is a must have though.

    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 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.
