Fitbit Versa comfort
Rating: 5
I bought this as a gift for my daughter. She absolutely loves it. She lives the pink color and she said the band is so soft and comfortable she wears it to Zumba and has no issue. She likes the size and comfort of wearing it. She like being able to see her heart rate and her favorite APP so far is the Relax App. She has had it for a few weeks now and has had no issues. She's still exploring the Apps and functions. I'm very happy with the purchase and the fact that she loves.

Excellent Smart Watch
Rating: 5
I bought this watch for Christmas and I love it. All features are as describe, easy to use and I also bought extra bands and accessories to match my wardrobe. The only down fall is that I'm not getting a low battery warning and battery does not last 4 days. 3 days batterylife max. I highly recommend it.

Loving my Versa
Rating: 5
I love my Fitbit Versa. It was easy to set up and I've had zero problems. I never realized how little I actually move. No wonder I gained weight. If you can't get a notification to come up, research how to turn it on. I'm very happy with mine. I'm getting 4 plus days of battery life. It charges quickly. I love that I can download free clock faces from the Fitbit app. Looking forward to buying new snazzy bands.

Great smartwatch!

I love everything about my Fitbit!! It would be better if you could actually talk on it though, especially for the price! Other than that it does everything it says it does, plus more! Really great product!

Keeps me on track!
Rating: 4
I purchased this Fitbit as a recommendation from my cardiologist. I wanted to keep track of my resting HR as well as my high points in the day, and I'm thrilled I can see all the data via the app and my watch itself. I appreciate the ability to link it with other apps like Myfitnesspal and Strava. Oh and of course my Starbucks card! It's the little things, ya know! I am also more mindful of my steps now, and I can see active minutes. The watch faces are customizable via the app, and so are a number of cool widgets like a little torch light, a weather app, a water reminder, and music. The possibilities are great with this Versa, and my only one complaint is the battery life after a while. I still get a solid 4 days with bits of play time but I expected it to be a tad more as the manufacturer stated 7 days on purchase. Not a deal breaker, I just have to charge it while sleeping and that interrupts my sleep insights, another super cool feature! All in all I'd highly recommend it. I've never owned a Garmin or Apple Watch for any sort of comparison, but this does exactly what I needed it to at a fraction of competitions price points. Great company, great customer service!

Good. The only thing bad is that when you move your arm and youre not Walking it counts as a step! When I wake up in the morning I have steps on my watch after sleeping! Like 39!

Not User Friendly
Rating: 3
Love the idea of the watch but I cant get it to perform like it promises. For example, you can customize quick responses to text messages in the Fitbit app but I have not figured out how to respond to a text yet. Also, it took me two days to figure out how to enable my watch to receive text message notifications. I have updated both my iPhone and Versa, went to the Fitbit community for help as well as read the online instruction booklet. Not user friendly.

Buy with caution
Rating: 1
I purchased this fitbit in Feb 2019, by October the heart rate sensor stopped working and it wouldn't hold a charge for more than 8hrs. Fitbit replaced it because it was still under warranty. By April 2020, I had the same issue but warranty was expired so I sent it to Square trade (bought $22 coverage for 3yrs). Square trade "fixed" it but I received it back and it wouldn't charge, I sent it back again and they returned it fixed but only lasted 4months. Now square trade will not accept it again as cost of parts and fixing has exceeded original cost of the item. I have had Fitbit flex and Charge 2 both lasting 2 years. The versa has been my worst and last fitbit purchase. One of my coworker also has a versa that lasted only about a year.

Cant leave phone at home or more than 90ft away
Rating: 5
Absolutely love the watch i work at a cell phone carrier and i got this watch because we had sold all out only down 2 down falls the one from walmart is no sim number so you cant leave your phone anywhere and just use the watch has to be within 90 ft from phone. Bluetooth only. Secind it comes in a different lanuage so you need the app to change it from tour phone other than that no complaints actually in the process of getting one for my husband becuse it pairs with apple phones as well. Oh and it comes totally dead so you have to charge it 100% beofre you can use it

GREAT product, great price
Rating: 5
I looked at MANY types of smart watches and loved the features of this watch. It was running and connected within 5 minutes and is easy to use. Buy it now, because the new models are MUCH more expensive. This watch does everything , including send/receive phone calls with my Samsung Note.

love this new piece of Tech
Rating: 5
I was very skeptical at first about getting a smart watch saying i would hardly use it. So recently i won a Gear s2 and been using it fr a few days. WOW what a gadget, HOW DID I SURVIVE WITHOUT this assistant on my hand giving me all my notifications on my wrist. Thanks a Million SAMSUNG. Now just waiting for my Free tablet to get here lol.

This product I highly recommend
Rating: 5
My Gear is very easy to use. I only take it off to charge it. I am able to keep up with my health as well as keeping up with my life,family,home,finances,ect.. while on the move. I can take calls,email,text,listen to music,keep up with my activities, ect.. while being on the go. I am a mother of 5. It doesn't get any easier than this when it comes to being a busy mom. This is recommended highly to anyone,but especially to moms- on - the - go!

It's a "love-hate" relationship.
Rating: 4
While I love the style and functionality of the Samsung Gear S2 Silver, the band is a very poor design. I received my smartwatch the first week of June 2016. It is now August 5, 2016 and both bands that came with the watch in the original packaging have failed in the exact same place. Both broke while doing simple household activities and the watch went flying. The watch itself has fared well and withstood the falls, but now I can't even wear it until I go and invest in the exact same poorly designed watch band that I'm certain will not hold up any better even though I'll have to pay through the nose for the proprietary design. Samsung, PLEASE fix this! I love the way the watch works seamlessly with my 7 Edge, but I will not recommend any of this style of the Gear S2 simply due to the lack of durability of the bands. I wish I had spent the extra $50 for the classic. My colleague has one and has not had any issues with the bands. I simply thought this version would be better for my active lifestyle. NOT SO!

Paid more for less
Rating: 3
Product is as it should be. Problem is that my sister paid less for hers on walmart.com and got the 3G version from a cellular third party. Will be returning product due to paying more for less features. If you dont know, the 3G version makes you able to talk on the phone through the watch itself. This is a pretty important feature. Another reason it got 3 stars is because you buy something off of walmart's site but cant return the product to your walmart store! Now i got to go through this third party who say that you may not get your full money back on the return.

Used
Rating: 2
No where in the description did the product say it was used. The box has clearly been opened before and the product has been used. I'm very disappointed in Walmart for using this poor third party vendor. This is a Christmas gift for my husband so don't know if it works, I hope it does bit I definitely wasn't looking for something used

Walmart.com is letting merchants sell used items with no knowledge of the consumer. I read the description and there was no mention.
