    I have always looked at getting one of these, but did not want to pay the price. Refurbished and deal of the day, meant this was a steal! So far I love it. Can see my messages and incoming calls on phone. It tracks steps, not sure how accurate, but seems pretty good to me. You can put in a step goal, and it will notify when you get there. Face of watch is rotatable and customizable which makes it match pretty much anything. The watch itself is very light and comfortable, with the rubbery band. It can track your runs as well. Battery life usually last me two days of constant use.

    Love the fitness watch. Keeps up with my activities exceptionally well. Love the way it provides me with notices for phone calls and messages from my smart phone. Great refurbished product and will give me confidence to buy additional refurbished products from Best Buy. The only thing I don't like is the wrist band. I've lost one before and this is my second product. I'd rather it buckle on than snap on.

    Comfortable to wear and looks good. Seems to be holding up very well. Charge lasts about two days depending on the notifications you have set. With the app on your phone, you can get text, calls and email notifications. Which makes it more like a smart watch, not just a fitness tracker.

    Tracks key components for fitness

    The Samsung Gear fit does a lot more than I thought it would, in conjunction with the S Fit app on my Samsung phone. The watch can measures steps taken, distance walked, active time, heart rate, quality of sleep and time slept. It communicates with the phone and sends notification for incoming calls, messages and alerts from supporting apps. It cannot receive calls or texts, but has the ability to respond via pre determined messages programmed into S Fit. It can track exercises like walking, running, hiking and cycling. By communicating with the phone, I get reports of distance, pace, elevation etc. I am a hiker and wanted the capability of tracking weather. Supporting apps for Gear Fit weather give temperature, humidity, pressure, weather conditions and forecast. It has options for displaying time in two time zones, or time and temperature. I was a bit concerned with the fact that the watch was refurbished. Best Buy assured me it came with 30 days Geek Squad warranty and one year Samsung warranty. The first watch I had stopped writing sleep data to the phone. Best Buy was very good about taking it back and replacing it with another refurbished watch. The replacement watch is working fine. .

    Does everything I expect it to. Tracks steps, exercise, heart rate, sleep and also provides any notifications you choose from your phone. I have it notify on phone calls, text messages, emails and meeting reminders. Definitely recommend it.

    This is a good device to receive notifications about emails, message etc. Not a complete smart watch but better than basic fitness trackers. Nice device.

    This fitness watch has a great look. I love getting the notifications but wish it had better fitness abilities like always on heart rate monitor and other exercise types from walking, running and bike riding.

    I like the fact that the band measures fitness metrics like steps, heart rate and sleep. You can also set it up to notify you of emails, texts, etc. This is nice once you determine the notifications you really want to receive. What I don't like is its hit or miss capabilities while exercising. Overall it's okay.

    Great Watch by Samsung

    This is my second one in 1.5 years. It is great as a exercise monitor and more. However the ability to see my texts on my wrist is a life saver. Also I can see who is calling without taking out my phone. This is a great watch and even bought it a second time.
