[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought this tablet for my grandma and is easy for her to used. Reasonable product to a Reasonable price.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my watch all the time, it's just perfect for training and fitness. The side it's great and it's basically all you need, you can do anything with it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First things first, the battery life is greatly improved! If battery life was the biggest holdout for you, you’re in luck, as they’ve definitely enhanced that.
The biosensor suite is incredible; it’s super accurate and provides a plethora of useful information for you.
I’ve tried multiple workout modes and have found them all to be very accurate with their calorie and exertion estimations.
The watch seems fine. Faster than my previous Watch 4 and much more comfortable to wear, but the battery life is abysmal. It's very inconsistent with the longest its lasted being about a day and a half and the shortest being a half a day. Not even sure what's going on as I mainly wear it to notify me of work emails/calls and to track my steps, nothing more. Very disappointing. I cannot recommend this product until the battery life problem is figured out.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very disappointed. The battery is still bad. I have to charge twice a day even though I have power saving turned on and all the perks turned off. Also, it won't turn on sleep score or any of the sleep tracking factors. Rebooted, reset, deleted data, tried it all and still does not work. Really regretting this purchase.

Battery life was horrible. I was charging 3x a day. If I turned off all of the features, I still had to charge 2x a day. I am returning the watch.

Battery is horrible until you learn to turn off smart things app (samaungs version of find my app). Once this was turned off my watch easily gets 2 full days of battery with little use. Nothing else really turned off either. Before smart things was turned off even my new bud 3 pro earbuds drained like 20% in a day with no use. I think its just a huge bug or something with smart things GPS tracking. Just wasting battery left and right.
I don't use the watch for nearly everything but I enjoy having a cool watch that can buzz me to alert me to a text if my phones not nearby, while gaming, or working, and I like the customizable faces. The ultra one is the best imo. I have everything I need right on it. If I ever get a lte plan this watch will be MUCH better but honestly, it's to expensive for me since I don't have a normal carrier phone plan and they wanna charge you up the butt for watch lte plans unless you have a phone plan with the carrier. Either way, I rather have the option then never being able to use it.
The included free athleisure band is imo trash. It's very long and with me having a big wrist, this thing is huge on me even when I tighten it as much as I can. The way it's just designed is really REALLY bad. The end of the band basically wraps all around my wrist and back to the watch. The directions tell you can stuff it back into the band underneath, which honestly is just not easy or doable with one hand, and not good long term for the material even if you managed too. This thing is literally trash. I wish they would of given me an option for the cheap fabric one cause that one could of been mildly more useful and maybe even comfortable. This one just slides around my hand no matter how tight I set it unless it's super tight and hurts my wrist. The other band that I received is superior in every other way and I don't think I'll ever touch this piece of trash again.
All in all, for a first time watch user, this was pleasant and I hope to get mildly good use out of this thing. I slapped a spigen glass screen protector on this and it was SUPER EASY. Highly recommend you buy one if you're concerned over scratching like I was due to work environment
