    I am on my 3rd upgrade on this product. Great for answering calls when I can't get to my phone or I am not in my car. I use it just as much for a watch as I do for keeping track of my steps. Having a sit down job I don't get many steps at work but before I turn in it is good to see I have increased my steps and am getting some exercise.

    It runs the Tizen OS & really only works at it's best with Samsung Cell phones. The watch does provide all the basics & it has a large amount of watch faces available. Also available in a cell version...

    This was a replacement watch for my Samsung Gear Neo2 and I love it. I loved my Neo 2, but much prefer the new look and style that makes it much easier to charge--no hassle and very quick. And, as always, I love being able to answer a call on my watch when I can't get to my phone. The call quality is excellent. I'm very pleased!

    I was sceptical about a smart Android watch but this waych made me a believer. I find myself using the watch more than the phone and allows me to be more discrete when messges and emails come in. I would definitely recommend this watch for on the go types and everyone looking to transition into a smart watch.

    I am enjoying the freedom a smart watch allows. While at work I receive my emails and faxes to my phone allowing improved time management. I receive calls to my phone allowing me to be away from my desk and not miss an important call. I was hesitant to purchase the smart watch but it is well worth the cost.

    Looks cool and it's convenient for running

    I bought it to run and that's mainly what I use it for. It pairs with my Beats wireless headphones and the Nike+ app tracks my miles. 3 stars because it does not have a Google Play Music app and I can't use the Google Play music downloaded to my phone. I have to use old music that is saved on my phone. Still recommend because everything else works fine.

    I am still learing how to use it. This was the best gift that I received in a while. Very convenient especially in meetings. I wish I could take pictures from it.

    Purchased this as a communication device to wear at the water park so as to not have to be without a phone in case of an emergency and it works perfectly. I recommend creating several preset messages for texting as the keyboard option is difficult to use with larger hands.

    I originally considered a Fitbit, then decided to invest a few more dollars for the additional functions. I love the text notifications, and surprisingly use the timer all the time! I can silence alarm and call notifications, and I can easily customize the watch face.

    Power is based on connection to the phone; no phone, short battery life. Interesting, fun toy to mess with.

    I got it for my wife after her previously owning the rose gold. The black goes with more of her outfits and doesn't look as silly on the wrist when running for hours or working out at the gym. The features work perfectly with her S7 Edge.

    I had the previous version of the Samsung Gear watch. I love the watch but I wasn't crazy about the style. This watch is so user friendly and I love the round shape! I will be keeping this watch around for as long as possible!

    This watch must be charged daily! I wanted to use it a lot for fitness tracking but this drains the battery even more. I also had the 3G connectivity which barely worked where I live in a rural area despite me having greatly phone service. I have taken this product back for a refund. This isn't a product for fitness tracking.
