[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This upgraded version 6 watch is loaded with features but some of them are distracting in everyday use and waste a lot of battery life. The previous version of the watch I used could go more than 2 days on a charge and was not sensitive to outside stimuli. This version has called 9-1-1 numerous times when I was working or a couple of times when I was simply sitting and talking to someone. I was finally able to fully disable the function, which would have been nice to have, but too unreliable. I have not been able to go more than about 20 - 21 hours without having to charge the battery. Quite distracting and time-wasting. As soon as the holidays are over I am going to try to find a used version of the Watch 3 or 4 and return to long battery life.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the watch 3 and this watch blew me away! I love how light and unnoticeable it is. Incredibly user friendly despite the large jump. Highly recommend to anyone that has a galaxy device and wants a small watch to make everyday living easier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the Galaxy Watch Active 2 before the 6, and I was amazed by the upgrade. I can now use a lot of apps that I couldn't before. I just love that I can use WhatsApp from my watch now.

Great first smart watch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm super happy with my galaxy 6 watch. I use it for work as a first responder. I love being able to just tap a quick button and call dispatch without having to pull out my phone or even have my phone on me. I enjoy the ease of being able to check messages quickly and change songs on my Spotify. It's nice that there's a security setup where my work information is kept private unless I have it on and put in the pin. This is my first smart watch and it was completely worth the investment.

Almost Perfect
on December 25, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This watch is perfect in almost every way. My only gripe is the battery life. This however is not a deal breaker for me because I own multiple Galaxy watches and can quickly switch them out for recharge without losing any tracked data. That being said, my watch 6 has the shortest battery life of the three I currently own. This shortcoming, especially for owners who only have one watch requires the user to make unwanted choices such as which data can I do without during this charging downtime. Again, great watch overall, just wish the battery life was at least a week instead of 24-48hrs.
