    Better with the phone and the watch together

    For $50 more I was able to use my watch as a phone. Very COOL... I chose to just connect to my Bluetooth, so it works just like when you have the blue tooth in the car, but now to the watch. You can get a service plan with your provider if you choose, but I chose not to. Just like the watch for $50 less, but this one has talking capabilities for the phone. Really like it but will like it more when I learn all of the ins and outs. If using the phone like I have indicated above, make sure to have the phone set up to not keep searching for the provider, otherwise the battery goes dead in less than a day.

    The watch is a must have for people on the go. You don't even need your phone to go for a run. Only issue is that it is way to big for a small female. I bought it for my husband and bought the classic for myself.

    This wearable is sleek and stylish. Best part: I can use it as a phone even when I don't have my phone on my person. Only drawback to that application: you get a second phone number. It's worth it!

    I really enjoy that I can see texts, emails and receive phone calls on this watch. Added bonus is that you have several thousand of options for faces. I change mine regularly and its like a new watch!

    My husband bought me this watch for mother's day. I have a job where I am isolated from my phone throughout much of the day. this is so helpful to know if my daughter's daycare is calling or I get an emergency text I can also leave my phone on silent in the office and my watch lets me know I'm getting a call while it's still in my desk drawer. and it's helpful during workouts and a good conversation starter!

    The 3g is definitely good because of its perks but not really suitable for a small women. I purchased it for my husband and it's perfect on him. Other that is a great smart watch with lots of options.

    First experience for having a smartwatch that can actually make phone calls. Had it just a few days, and really having fun with this watch. I would highly recommend a smartwatch.

    I really love the stand alone ability to make or receive calls and texts!!! I love being able to personalize the watch face. I hope that Samsung brings out more apps for the phone.

    Easy to set up with my Galaxy S7. Very easy to navigate to all of the features. Has decent storage space that allowed me to add about 150 mp3s with no problem. I use it on walks to play music through my Bluetooth headset. Lots of downloadable watch faces to let you customize the look of the watch. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of a lack of nice aftermarket watch bands.

    Unfortunately I do not like this watch. Functionality is great but the appearance is absolutely horrible for me.Shape, way too thick and in my opinion not for a woman. Apple watches however are really unisex. Personally love that watch a lot more but I hate the iPhone so I am stuck wearing this clunker. Hoping Samsung will step up their watch game for women.

    I love my new watch... however, I wish it had more applications on it. This is the second version, and it works well, I wish it had more music apps (Spotify) so I could use my Bluetooth headset and just my watch when I am working out. This would be EXTREMELY beneficial. Sometimes the pedometer isn't correct (nothing is perfect) but it definitely serves its purpose.

    I think the Samsung Watch is very stylish and can keep all my information in one spot rather then always having to have big bulky phone out.
