Great buy
Rating: 5
This was a good purchase. I can track my movement, various exercises, and meal consumption to see if I'm on target. The price was reasonable and I'm impressed so far.

Best gift to myself
Rating: 5
Wonderful device. My hearing isn't so great anymore, so the vibration on my wrist for an incoming call is welcomed. But that's not all - this watch is simply perfect. I love the large size, the bezel and the overall look. It's vintage in style and I love that. I bought a set of bumpers to protect all the way around and a bezel ring that has nice slightly raised knobs to make the bezel easier to turn while the bumper is on. You can't even tell I have a bumper on! I am in the process of buying more of the thinner leather bands for it, too, because those are the most comfortable for me. The watch works smoothly and accurately and the choices for personalized apps and watch faces make choosing fun. I originally wanted the LTE version, but the price on this one was absolutely stunning ($90 cheaper than anywhere else) that I bought it and haven't regretted the decision.

Great Watch, just wish there were more apps for it. Comfortable to wear. Used in pool and it hasn't affected it.

Questionable value
Rating: 2
I had high hopes for the Galaxy Watch but was very disappointed. Some built-in apps don't work or don't work well. Samsung Health is very unreliable....it refuses to count floors and step count is not accurate. These are known issues which Samsung apparently is not dealing with. Suggest you stay with your FitBit for health tracking. Samsung Pay on the watch is unreliable (unlike Samsung Pay on my phone which is great).....it worked only once after some effort. Apps such as weather don't auto refresh and even won't manually refresh consistently...it took 2 days and multiple manual refresh requests before it got current. Bing would open on voice command but would not recognize any voice command....wouldn't respond at all. WiFi and Bluetooth connections had trouble refreshing even with manual requests. I'm returning the watch.
