[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup was quick, and the quality is fantastic, and the battery easily gets me through the day. I use it mostly for work and social apps and it's been reliable so far. Happy with the purchase
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setting up the watch was relatively easy for me being in your late 60's. I have found it good to use and have changed some settings with reasonable ease. So far I only need to charge the battery every 3 days. Great watch.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight and comfortable to wear. Set up was really simple. Battery life lasts few days. Love how you can personalize the watch.

Really helpful for T1D

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mainly got this watch as I'm a Tyoe 1 diabetic and need to keep an eye on my blood glucose levels. It wasn't too hard to connect the watch to my Samsung phone for accessing CGM data and have my BG clearly displayed on the face beside the time. A quick glance at my wrist is much easier than pulling my phone out to check!
I also enjoy the other things it does, tracking exercise and sleep, as they are also important for managing Type 1 diabetes well.
I only gave 4 stars as the battery life is pretty short and I've been caught out occasionally when I haven't remembered to recharge. It is quick to charge though, and not a big problem to leave it on the charger for a short time each day ... if I remember!
I'm a gardener, and the watch seems to be holding up well to the soil and knocks that it gets in the garden. I got a screen protector applied at the time of purchase which obviously helps.

Wireless Charging

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great watch with amazing features and a sleek look. However it is quite disappointing that the watch cannot be charged on the Samsung Trio Charger Pad due to the way the straps lock into the watch. The watch doesn't lie flat in the charging pad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Usability and integration on this watch is smooth. Using the watch interface helped me in my daily life. I like the camera function, as I often need to take pictures in weird angles. The ability to change quick functions is a boon.
Connectivity to apps on my phone also works well, and integrates well most of the time.
Battery life has not improved much over the classic, but it still lasts me a day and that's good enough.
The screen is robust and strong, durability has improved over the classic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use. Minimal setup was required. Battery life is a bit short. I end up charging it most days. Otherwise, I will run out of battery the next day.
