    Love it. I wear it everyday and it keeps me in check. Battery lasts me 2-3 days when im not playing with it so much. Got much more use out of it than apple watch. Gemini is great.

    I like the fact that I don't need to always grab my phone, the ability to monitor my health issues, see messages while in different settings. Samsung continues to make amazing products.

    This watch has plenty of features, but the battery life is really disappointing. Even after disabling all the recommended battery‑draining settings and switching to a simple watch face, I still have to charge it after about 36 hours. I “upgraded” from a Fitbit that did almost everything this watch does—minus calls and texts—and lasted far longer. For the price, I expected a much better experience.

    Was time for an upgrade from Watch6. Overall wasn't much of an upgrade. It does have a better battery life but it is larger than the 43mm Watch6. I wish it was 43mm, this doesn't fit my wrist as well and I wouldn't want to go to 40mm. The screen is an upgrade but we lost the rotating ring. That's criminal.
