Better than Expected

I bought this product on-line, so never got to see it in person. When I did get it, it fit extremely well and is so comfortable that I can forget it is on. Still getting used to all the features, that may take me a few more days plus. My priority requirements were met very well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

ECG is a useless feature that cost it extra money , it's not working appropriately and is not available with in Samsung health !
You need to install several applications which present the junior technical team on behind!

Honestly not impressive

I would give it more of a 2.5 stars, but 3 is too much.
For those that are sitting on the fence wondering if the price is worth it, it really isn't. I will start off with the good things I noted however:
-Feels really nice to wear, very comfortable. In my case I almost forget it is there, so good!
-Screen is responsive and clear

The not so good
- A few things. Some of the "health features" are pretty bogus. Antioxidant index for example is hardly accurate. You'll find stories and friends who get low scores, some deserving of low scores, some health nuts that do nothing but load on foods for antioxidants getting the same low score. It measures orange tint in your skin apparently, so who knows. I call bogus. Blood pressure is done via external means, which you don't need on your watch. Just go to the store, or buy any other blood pressure machine and take note. The watch itself doesn't do this for anyone who thinks it could. So it's hardly a feature to bump up the crazy price of this thing.
-Screen is responsive, but almost too touchy. Could be my larger index finger, but sometimes I find myself going back when I dont want to, or zipping around missing things. Skill issue maybe, but just doesn't feel great. I suppose better than not getting any response out of it, still a not great thing to me.

The bad
-What is this battery life? This isn't 1999, do better. A day and a half with all power saving settings is honestly a joke. Constantly having to charge this thing is a chore, and there are other options out there where the battery can last at least a few days to over a week with sensors on. Not impressed.

-The price - Not really sure where people are getting the value from. Once you toss aside the little extras (BP / Antioxidant nonsense/ (insert something else that you dont care for).. it's just another smart watch that can text (which others can do fine), give you notifications (again, cheaper options can do fine) and whatever else. Taking it back today cause I just can't get over feeling like I have been ripped off by something that will be abandoned once the Galaxy watch 9 comes out, and I am a huge galaxy phone fan as well. Samsung can do better than this.
Overall - I can't recomment this product based on my experience. The only thing it seems to be good for is saying you have it to your friends, but what you are actually getting doesn't feel good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
