I love my Fitbit! This is a replacement for an Ionic I thought I lost. But, I found it and now my husband has one. I also teach aqua yoga and aqua aerobics and the Ionic keeps on working.

Watch is attractive - has the features I wanted
Rating: 5
When I plugged it in to charge - it started charging but half way through charging it stopped - it looked like it was dead and I almost returned it. I tried rebooting it by holding the Back button and lower button on the right side until it responded and that did the trick. The setup was simple and easy. The watch is now working without any issues.

Good watch
Rating: 4
Watch works great. I had one since 12/ 25/ 2018, unfortunately it stopped working in March of 2019. I purchased another one because it was so easy to use. I couldn't do without it. I love this watch!

WORST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER
Rating: 1
bought it for my husband's birthday, he's worn it the last 4 months, and twice it has died but it came back to use. It died 2 days ago and now it won't light up at all, not even hooked to charger. I have tried to contact fitbit warranty and Nothing.

Not built to last
Rating: 1
The screen fell off my Ionic a few months after it was out of warranty. I contacted Fitbit and was offered a 25% discount on a new device. Too expensive to fall apart!

Too good to be true
Rating: 1
There is a reason this Fitbit is drastically cheaper than anywhere else... it is a model made for Asian markets and possibly old stock. The battery on a full charge lasts 4-5 hours not the 7 days advertised by Fitbit. I have been working with Fitbit for weeks to get a new one with no luck. I will be returning it to Walmart.

I have been threw 3 fitbit ionic in 18 months do to the fact water has got inside of them. The company will not hold up there word on it about it can be used in the pool. waste of money if you are trying to track swim laps.

Defective Watch
Rating: 1
Received purchase quickly but watch is defective and will be returning. The watch does not turn on and packaging was not for a 'new' watch. We contacted Fitbit to confirm that there was nothing we could do to get the watch running. I recommend Fitbit but not from an unknown third party.

Integrates Well with Samsung's Ecosystem
Rating: 5
i recently upgraded to a samsung galaxy s10e and wanted a fitness tracker that would integrate with the samsung health app. i switched from a garmin fitness tracker and have been using the galaxy fit for about a month now and i love it. the interface is easy to use/navigate and i love being able to get notifications from my phone on my fit. (the garmin wearable's notifications didn't work as well as i would like.) the heart rate tracker, sleep tracker, and fitness tracker all work well. i use this to track my runs and if you run with your phone like i do, the samsung health app on the phone will also record your gps settings from your run as well! overall, this is an excellent product for the price and i personally prefer this because it plays well with samsung's other apps.

Absolutely love it. Had a different watch that didn't do half of what this 1 does. Linked up great not 1 problem

Great Watch - Tracker
Rating: 4
The watch is great. I can read and see everything on the watch out in the bright sun, I don't worry about it getting wet while doing dishes etc. It has a big bright interface and syncs with Samsung Health. The only reason it didn't get five starts is that I would like the home screen to have the date on it. I can add my calendar to it but that is the second screen. Compared to the two fitbits I had, I would buy this one again and recommend.

Good watch for the price
Rating: 4
Love it. The only thing I miss on this that the bigger Samsung watches have is "Find my phone". I like the buckle on this one more than the one with the bigger watch face. I have had 2 of the bigger Samsung watches and they didn't last more than a year so I didn't want to pay a lot of $$$ but still wanted the exercise tracking functionality that interfaced well with Samsung phone.

An excellent Fit with Galaxy S10
Rating: 4
Overall very satisfied, easily connected to Galaxy S10 thru Gear app. For small wrist need a band retainer. I use 10% power in a day and recharges in less than hour. Recommend a start screen for exercise. Recommend auto adjustable to light.

Simple Features, Lousy band.
Rating: 3
I bought this back in December of 2019. I like everything about it except the band. The end tucks under and because the material is some kind of rubber or plastic the only way I can get it off is to use some kind of tool to get it off. Presently there are no other bands available for this unit.

Just ok
Rating: 3
I should have spent more money and purchased a fit smart watch that had the display on all of the time. Even though, you have to turn on the display with a wrist turn or pushing the button, it seems to run out of charge quickly. The watch works fine and keeps the data I need: time, steps, weather, etc. It does not sync with my computer only with my phone, which is also a disappointment.

Not as good as I had hoped.
Rating: 3
Worked good at first. But the battery life is getting shorter and shorter. It's taking longer to charge also. I've only had it about three weeks. I still haven't figured out how to give quick response to texts.

The watch has great features, especially if you use Samsung products. The battery was great for exactly ONE WEEK, then it started to die. Even after trouble-shooting everything, I have to charge it daily. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Avoid at all costs! you've been warned
Rating: 1
This is the worst quality watch I've ever owned. I'm currently on my 3rd watch within 2 months. I'd switch except i can only exchange for same one unfortunately. First one quit charging after 2 weeks and the screen refused to do anything except flash colors. 2nd one the band broke after 3 weeks (connection the watch itself) I'll just keep exchanging it until my time runs out. (no pun intended) Cant believe Samsung would allow such a low quality item when normally they have decent quality.
