    I read the reviews. It would be something that I could use and enjoy using once I receive that I used it for about 5 days and it is definitely not worth the money as far as I'm concerned my wife has the Apple watch and it does by far way more things in the gear also the Moto 360 which I ended up getting his much better than the Samsung gear s2 in my opinion

    Does what it's intended for. Texting from the actual watch is not the easiest though...also limited on the amount of apps available. Heart meter works most of the time. Also, make sure to charge daily, if you use it daily for it's features it will NOT last 3 days. However the device does charge pretty quickly and the wireless charge stand is pretty sweet.

    I am overall satisfied. There are some great new features and the appearance is much nicer than my first Galaxy watch. The one thing I really miss, however, is the speaker. It was convenient to answer calls on the old watch when my phone was across the room or in my pocket.

    Bought this as a gift for the wife and she likes the style. it is Samsung pay capable which is convenient if you use that service. the only complaint she has to date is that you have to hold it really close to the checkout pad to transmit the payment information. she likes that you can see email and messages as well as having a stylish watch.

    Smart Watch Is Smart

    I'm not the best person to be writing a review for a smart watch, I really don't see the point in them. My wife wanted this one though, so I got it for her for her birthday and she seems really happy with it. She can now enjoys pictures of her cat on a tiny screen on her wrist, and she's infatuated with how many steps she takes every day. Sometimes the watch tells her she's being lazy, so she flails her arm around like she's being attacked by bees until it pays her a compliment. It's also one more piece of technology to remember to charge everyday, so we've got one more loose cord sprawled out from an outlet in our house. These are all apparently things she really wanted in her life, because she loves this watch. The biggest benefit to the watch, from what I can tell, is that you can now do a lot of phone-type stuff without actually looking like you're on your phone, which is probably good. I'm not sure about you, but I judge people who spend too much time on their phone, so now she's incognito. She can text her BFF through dinner, or during a movie and I barely notice. I mean, I still notice, but it's not as bad as her using SnapChat all the time... SnapChat is the worst...

    Product is very well made. Sleek design, very cool dial design. It offers the same things that the Apple iWatch does. Battery life is great, but will drain fast if constantly looking for WiFi signal (turn off and problem solved). Wish it would work with phone for calls (not available for Sprint Customers). Did not realize there were two different versions.

    I've really enjoyed my galaxy smartwatch so far. I started out looking at the huawei watch as a strong competitor, but overall I felt this was a better watch. The ambient light sensor is a must. The OS is more than ok despite its underwhelming app support. Let's face it, how many apps do you really want to use on a 1" screen? Battery life is great too.

    The Samsung S2 is an awesome watch. The face is slick and the interface is easy to use. The only downfall is the limited number of apps. Plus, you need to have a Samsung phone to get apps like Uber because you need these apps were specifically made for the Samsung phone.

    This is my 3rd Great, so not new to the ideas. Really like almost every thing. Wish it had native sleep mode like my other two. Maybe in an update. Being able to use standard bands is a nice plus. Battery life is about what I expected, and get me beyond a day. Milage will vary depending on your settings. WiFi is fair, nfc...hmm no value that I have found.

    Good Hardware, Bad Software

    I bought a Gear S2 Classic with high hopes. I didn't want a big or thick watch. I really liked the bezel that rotates as an option to control the watch. In the end, the lack of decent software and some big deficiencies, my opinion is this smart watch is way overpriced for what you get. It doesn't run Android Wear, which is fine with me, but the app market is very limited. There is no (good) way to integrate step count with any Android software except Samsung S health. It also doesn't appear to have an ambient sensor to control watch face brightness. Other than the physical size of the watch, I would not buy it again.

    I truly enjoy the gear S2! It has a lot of cool functions. My favorite being all the watch faces that you can download. I only download the free faces, and there are hundreds to choose from. There are plenty of other things that the watch can do. Great purchase.
