For the most part the watch is OK, however the battery performance is extremely poor this is the reason I can't give it 5 stars.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the big face on this watch. It tells me everything at a glance. I have been having some connection issues with my phone, however, it might be switching between my vehicle and phone. My Galaxy 6 would connect to both and I could answer with either my hands free or watch. Could be some setting I need to adjust but I haven't figured that one out yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The watch is not as accurate as I was hoping. I upgraded from the Galaxy ring but I think the ring was actually more accurate. I do like that I can see text messages and phone calls on the watch. The battery life is very short. No joke. I haven't been able to get a whole 24 hours yet. I have had the watch for about a month.

Nice clear HD screen. More sensitive to the touch compared to older models of the Galaxy Watch series. I would strongly recommend this product.
