I like the watch very much, a little better then my Fitbit. The only problem is I have no manual or anything to help with the different things on the watch. Every time I want to go into health and check on different things, I can not.
This watch was purchased to replace a Galaxy5 and I'm glad I did. It's display is sharper, the battery lasts longer and it sits closer to my wrist. I'm super happy with it and reading texts are much easier now with the clearer image.
The ease of choosing this watch, making the trade-in, the price, and the size, was overshadowed by my disappointment in the battery life. It MIGHT last 24 hours, if I'm lucky. No, I don't want to put it on power-saving, as the entire reason I have it is to monitor my health and activities. I'll think long and hard before I buy the next one, if I even DO buy a next one. I don't like the GIANT faces of the new watches and this 40mm size is perfect, but the performance is lacking.

I was shopping for a new watch since mine was 8 years old and definitely needed an upgrade! Samsung's trade in program was SO easy and fast to use. And saved quite a bit of money for me in the end. I will DEFINITELY be doing this again!
