GREAT WATCH BUT NOW THE BAND FALLS OFF ALL DAY EVERY DAY
Rating: 5
I've had this watch for over a year now I believe, and now the band falls off all the time. the band isn't ripped or anything, just the little pin that pushes in to both sides of the watch face won't stay on.I am not happy about not being able to wear it. Can someone please help me?

Beautiful!
Rating: 5
I love this watch. I've been through a few smartwatches and always returned to the gear fit due to the size and shape. I then upgraded to the s2 for the functionality. This watch is the perfect mix of the two. The notifications, the agenda and the health features and exactly what I need. The classic feels much lighter than the s2 and the ridges on the bezel make it easier for me to use. But what I love is the look, it is gorgeous!

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.

Samsung classic smart watch
Rating: 5
Hello Everyone, I have written before about things. I am not tech savvy and I don't really don't use my Samsung galaxy 6 edge the way that I am supposed to, but I love the combination of both my watch and phone together. I can't hear my phone all the time and missed 2 emergency calls. I bought the smart watch so that I don't miss anything. I can tell you it goes off with all notifications that are on my phone. I can program everything and anything and my watch lets me know. I realize that it sounds lazy but I have been able to program things for my job also. It vibrates and is non-intrusive. Not like the notification from the phone. Also, I can not carry my phone on my person at work... THIS IS AWESOME !!!!! My only thing against the watch is that there seems to be no thought process to women. The watch bands are either black or brown. I actually ordered one on the market that I changed it to. I would have like to have the Samsung brand to complete the watch and be able to change it easily. I hope that they consider this for their accessories soon.

This is truly a smart watch!
Rating: 5
Without looking garish and futuristic, this Gear S2 Classic truly is a smart watch. From turning it on for the first time, it links seamlessly with my Galaxy Note5 and complements it perfectly. The display is bright and clear, the apps from mail to uber are a joy to use. And all at the same time it looks like a proper watch. As an added bonus, it is water resistant. The battery life is excellent. So far I have managed 3 days without having to recharge the battery, and that's without setting it to greyscale mode.

I put my Swiss Timepieces on the shelf
Rating: 5
I would consider myself a watch enthusiast and collector with many Swiss Made high end timepieces. I have been waiting a long time for a smart watch that I could wear alone on my wrist instead of a watch on my left and a fitness band on my right. The Samsung Gear S2 Classic gives me both in a beautiful package and thousands less than any other watch in my collection. Well Done Samsung!!!!!

Almost Very Happy
Rating: 4
I am really pleased with the Gear S2 Classic. First and foremost, I wanted a good watch. I have already changed the band to one more of my liking. I usually have my phone with me anyway, and have basically been using in standalone mode, and get 3-4 days of battery before the next charging. It's snappy and responsive. There are a minimum set of apps that I have installed and use. I don't see me using a browser or even a map on my wrist since I have my phone. However, I would like to see in a future update...give the option for the watch to wake up to the last app open and in use!!! In other words, I use my stopwatch and timer quite often...it's a pain for the watch to come on, and the clock face is there and then I have to dig to open the app in use. I'd like to be able to open up and see some apps like timer or stopwatch greet me when the watch wakes up. This was a feature available in the Galaxy Gear S (original). Better way to access recent apps, like 2 finger option on Gear S1. Maybe ability to swap top and bottom physical buttons for functionality. Also, what's the deal with S-Health? Is there no way to sync up with my phone? A standalone compass would be nice, if possible with hardware. Otherwise, happy with my purchase.

Great Watch
Rating: 4
The watch is great. The only down fall to me is the price. I feel that the tech. Side of it will improve in time so the price that you pay for it now might not be worth it since you are spending more than what you pay for a cell phone upfront. For the price you do wish it could do more. But it does have a lot of positives as far as uploading and controlling music and pictures. Tracks your health. The faces are the best, there's something out there for everyone. And the faces itself have unique programs.

very useful, notifications add value , no interruption created meanwhile your are in meetings, remote control in case that you need to open an application, application like health care will also get conscious about time sitting or walking for health sake , price is fare based on alll bennefits in your wrist

Currently all the designs reflect a more masculine style. It would be nice to have something like a rose gold to reflect a feminine style.

Checked off all the boxes for me.
Rating: 5
I've been researching all the available fitness trackers on the market, trying to narrow the field down a bit to make an educated decision. I made a list of must-haves to assist me in the process. This one checked off all the boxes. I was leaving heavily towards the Fitbit Ionic, Garmin Forerunner 245, & Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro towards the end. So far, I'm very happy with my decision. I love how sporty it looks, how simple & intuitive it is to navigate with bezel or via touch on the fly, the all metal, yet lightweight build quality, and the ability to use it WITHOUT MY PHONE to listen to music on my earbuds & even pay at NFC enabled registers using Samsung Pay. Great device.

Amazing watch
Rating: 5
I bought this watch in May, and used it for my entire internship, I love the clicky turn wheel, and every app that was preloaded into the watch. The notifications on my phone allow me to keep the ringtone off, and still get them without notifying everyone around me, and texting people on here is a breeze. I have gone swimming with this multiple times, and not had a single issue.

Great watch

Bought it with my note 10+ they work flawlessly together and it does everything I need it to do also it being water resistant is an added bonus. Only thing I changed was the band to a metal one they are more comfortable to me and look better

Way cool

This watch is awesome. It has a great battery life (I consistently get 2.5 days), tracks sleep, and performs so much better than the Wear OS watches I used for three years before finally coming to my senses and trying Samsung. I love integration with my A50 phone too.

I got this along with Galaxy note 10. It has a great feature. But, functions aren't variable.

After 3 weeks of use
Rating: 4
I recently purchased this device and utilize it everyday. I find it very useful in most circumstances, but there's the occasionally hiccups that could use improvement. Pros: Price Internal memory The ability to play music directly from the watch (if you're being active and don't want to carry a phone). Ability to write and it convert (rather than 26 tiny letters) Easy to scroll and use Cons: Battery (if you're actively using the phone, you'll get maybe 6 hours) Connecting to BT can sometimes be a pain. No sleep tracker Small amount of memory Color options The heart rate monitor does not work (at all)

Watch is great software not so much
Rating: 4
The watch itself is fantastic. It does a great job of detecting on its on when i'm beginning a workout and tracks it very well. I wear it doing mostly crossfit workouts which it seems to do a good job tracking. The Samsung Health app on the other hand is really buggy. It crashes almost every time i use if for more than one minute. Its a serious problem that hopefully Samsung will address updating the app.

Allergy warning
Rating: 3
I bought the Samsung Gear Sport a few days ago. It was great the first day. The second day I realized it was hurting a bone on my wrist. I figured it would take time to get used to it. Today I had itching and irritation aound the entire area that it had contact with. I had no choice but to return it. It made my wrist very sweaty. The functionality was a bit difficult to navigate. Was very disappointed that I couldn't talk or listen to music on it without a bluetooth. It has an alarm that makes sound so it has a speaker of some kind. I was really excited about getting this watch, very sad I had to return it. It has a great look to it and I love the wireless charger. How do you become a product tester?

Great potential, disappointing performance
Rating: 3
I enjoy many things about this watch, including style, the screen, and the different apps. However, fitness tracking is off in regards to calories burned. And I mean seriously off. This is a main reason why I bought the watch, so it's really disappointing that it is unable to count calories burned accurately. I have compared it to multiple other trackers as well as general nutritional health information, and the calculations are consistently off. Fix this issue, and you have a great product. One other gripe, the bezel is really easy to scratch and mark up.

Water Ressistance is a Lie
Rating: 2
I bought the watch about 10 months ago and yesterday, I was in a pool and I activated the water proof mode and I was completly sure it was going to be fine. But when I was in the pool the watch turned completly off and wouldn't start. Once it started I saw that the screen was sourt of damged and the "Watch face always on" feature was completly ruined. It also looks kind of slow. So recomedation do what you do but be careful with water.
