So far, so good

I've only had the watch for about 3 weeks now and I love it! It's very lightweight and responsive. Some apps load a little slow but the main ones (Mail, Calendar, Weather) are great! I also like how it tries to keep me active as I have an office job and probably don't move enough in a standard day. At least, until I got this watch because the reminders keep me moving!
I have also downloaded Galaxy Watch Studio and made my own watch face. There was a small learning curve but it was overall pretty simple and now my watch looks great!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this watch

I have used it for about a month and it works really well, the controls are easy to manage and are intuitive (I really like the touch bezel). The auto-recognition of workouts and sleep tracker works well and the watch works well with my phone. I LOVE the redundant audio controls, AND it has a "find my phone" app that is very useful. Also, I find the watch strap quite comfortable, this is my third smartwatch (Peeble Time [RIP] and Fitbit Versa [meh]). I have small wrists so the long strap always gets caught on my sleeves. This is the first one where the strap is not held down by a ring or loop but goes under the other strap. It's a small design detail but it means the strap is out of the way.
The app store is fine, there are a lot of good free watch faces and apps.
The only negative thing I have to say about it is the battery lasts about a day and a half, which isn't great, but since it doesn't take that long to charge I don't mind.

Calories Burned Wrong!
on March 7, 2021

The design is great. The microphone and speaker work well. Battery life is not bad, it should be better. However, the calculated burned calories in exercise applications are totally wrong! Doing aerobics is also ignored in exercise applications. Not a good watch for sporty people. I DONT RECOMMEND IT!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Burned calories calculated by the watch is wrong! Don't count on it. Also, the aerobics application is missing! I don't recommend it!

Nice watch, but it can't count.

Bought this because of the health features I thought it had. I thought it had stress tracking. It does not, not at the moment anyway. I called Samsung and they have no idea when that feature will be enabled. It seems they've been trying for a couple years now to get it approved. No EKG, not yet and probably will have to wait forever for that to work as well. Heart rate monitor seems accurate. Step counter is terrible. One day I spent most watching tv, lazy day. It counted I did more than 8000 steps. It also counts steps while you are driving, not constantly, just when it wants. So looking at that step counter is pointless. Phone part works well and the mic and speaker seem clear and loud enough. So it gets points for that. It can hold around 2 gigs of music. You can control the music on ur phone with the watch. I tried having headphones connected and playing music on my phone thru the watch but couldn't get it to play thru the headphones. (I use a Samsung Galaxy 9plus)
Overall not a terrible watch with the exception of the step tracking and lack of features that most other brands have such as stress tracking. C'mon Samsung, you've lacked that feature for years now while ever other brand under the sun has it. I'm returning this watch and looking for another brand that has the stess feature enabled.

Great watch For what you pay!

Fitbit has been my to-go watch, in the smartwatch department for the longest time. Switching over to this has been wonderful, being able to reply to a text from my phone, how responsive it is, how It just integrates with everything I do, the auto detect for workouts. It doesn't have gimmicks but all the things it does is done right, the battery says 2 days but usually a day in im always sitting at 60-70% (I dont use gps or any extra features) Very satisfied, I'll update if it craps on me within a year but if not, I think it did its job right!
