Hard to adjust strap. If not on wrist correctly, the lights flash. Not really easy for use on right wrist. Still new to this type of technology.

I love this thing. Fitness tracker like a fitbit with a HR monitor and all the awesomeness of a smart watch. Great for answering texts at work without the boss seeing me with my phone out. Liked it enough i bought my wife one. Definitely would recommend.

Overall the Samsung Gear Fit 2 is a great fitness watch. It has all the basics you expect from a fitness band, such as heart rate, step count, and calories burned. It also provides the features of a smart watch, such as notifications, easy reply to text, customized watch faces, and other watch functions. For activity tracking you can manually select from Running, Walking, Cycling, Hiking, Elliptical trainer, Exercise bike, Step machine, Treadmill, Lunges, Crunches, Squats, Star jumps, Pilates, Yoga, Rowing Machine, and Other workout. You can set your target for Duration, Distance, Calories, or Basic workout. You can enable tracking, which was not on by default, enable auto pause, so that it only tracks while you are only active and set guide intervals for distance or time. The Gear Fit2 will start tracking an exercise event on its own, provided you do that activity for 10 minutes or more. Anything less than that, unless manually started, doesn’t always show up as an activity. The other disadvantage to the Gear Fit2 automatically recognizing the activity is that the actual location is not recorded via GPS, the GPS tracking appears to only work if manually started. However, a “Dynamic Workout” can pop up at any time, such as working on your car for 30 minutes straight, which shows up as “Other Workout” when recorded. The Gear Fit2 also tracks floors, however, this is hit or miss. I live in a 3 story house, yet rarely does it count a floor. I work in a 3 story building that is as tall as 5, but after 9 flights of stairs it may show 2 floors climbed. It also really depends on what you are doing with your watch hand. If holding the rail or securing something with your arm, it may not count any floors. The battery life will vary depending on what you have enabled. I found that disabling the Wi-Fi and leaving location off really extends the time to 3+ days. However, with those services on, plenty of activity and checking the watch with a high brightness setting, it can be as little as a day and a half. I’m not a very active person, but on average use, even wearing it to sleep, it lasted around 3 days. One of the features I had been looking forward to was sleep tracking. I have seen some reviews complain about the watching keeping them awake, however, if you turn the brightness down and turn on the “Do not disturb” setting, the watch will only show its face when a button is pushed or an alarm goes off. It has been interesting to see my sleep activity as I never realized how active I was at night, to include a few minutes of what the watch considered “light activity.” Using the S Health app you can see exact times of sleep to include motionless, light, and restless movement. Plus, in the morning, when your phone alarm goes off the watch vibrates and offers a snooze or disable. I feel it has helped me get up in the morning as it is a little harder to ignore the vibration. To get the most out of the watch, you must have an Android based phone that can run the Samsung Gear app and highly recommended for a Galaxy phone. Other phones can see the watch on Bluetooth but the watch will not complete set up and will continue to ask for Samsung Gear App to complete. However, the watch will function on its own without the ability to sync to a phone. Due to the shape of the watch, the center of the glass seems like a hazardous area. Just the slightest bump and you are hitting the glass face against something. However, I have accidently bumped against a variety of objects, from walking close to a wall to working on my car and there is still no visible damage. Though I have not purposely tried to hit it, I have bumped it pretty hard on a rough concrete wall with the same results. The other thing I don’t necessarily like is the latching mechanics for the band. I have had it come loose without knowing how, but have noticed it when it does. It is also a little difficult at times to get that next hole to keep it tight without fighting the opposite direction. If you already use an Android based phone and want to get the most out of the S Health app or other like apps, this is certainly a watch to get.

Wasn't sure if I would use this much since I kind of got it for my grandson. Between the time I talked to him and actually got it his parents h had bought him one! So, I had to use it. After a little trial period I loved it. It helped me be more active!

Watch is great, monitors my activity, the phone app is very good at summarizing all my activity. Love the fact that my text messages are shown on watch for a quick review before going to the phone

This is a great piece. I treat with care as it is not really meant to be handled the same way as casio G shock and it isn't waterproof either.

Great fitness band/watch, only issue is rhe need to use the Samsung store because of the Tinzen OS has limited options. For what it is, best in class

Gave it a try and my reaction is lukewarm. Too small and unless you are a fitness nut, really kind of useless.

Currently enjoying this product and it's functionality. Redesigned wrist band does not come off as easily as the Fit 1. Syncs well with my Galaxy S7

The watch is ok for fitness and maybe a few notifications but looking for anything else look at another watch

Stylish watch however the band detaches unexpectedly at any given time.

I really like this watch. I like the fact that it has the sleep rating. I have not hooked it up to my phone so am unsure how all of that works

Got it free when I bought my new note 7. Wife had been wanting one so it worked out perfectly. She love the way it has Text and other stuff on the fit bit. I would tell you more but I saw it for 5 seconds before she had it. Can tell you she loves it.

I love this watch. It pairs well with my Samsung phone. I like how you can customize it Only negative is that it doesn't have sound on its own.

Not sure the step count is accurate, but the best product to use in conjunction with my Samsung phone. Does a good job helping me track my info.

I bought this for my niece as a gift. She really enjoyed this product and wears is daily to keep track of her miles, either for walking or running.

Got it for my wife for mothers day. I have a watch and enjoy it so I got her one and she is loving it.

Bought it in early July and so far am happy with it. Found a free app that shows battery percentage. Works well with S Health on my Samsung Note5.

Good device to have. It lets me know who is call/texting with me having to look at my phone. Like the ability to send quick responses as well.

The activity tracker is a step above the original tracker. So far it works okay. But it does have the tendency to freeze up from time to time.
