Baseline HR monitoring on this watch is questionable and inconsistent. After trying various locations on my wrist and adjusting the tightness, I cannot get this watch to reliably read my HR accurately or when I need it. The watch has been reset once, sensor cleaned and power cycled many times and the functionality is disappointing at best. A common scenario is the watch reporting HRs in the 90 's when my baseline HR is 50-60. Additionally, while monitoring exercise, it will fail to sense my HR at all. The remainder of the functionality of the UI is average at best, even with the recent upgrade. The primary reason I own this watch is for biometric monitoring and my current experience also leads me to believe that the body comp algorithm is significantly flawed and the ECG reports inconclusive greater than 90% of the time.
my 1st smartwatch i think i made the right choice its stable fast acurate looks good only one thing i'm on the largerb side i wish the sports band wat a little bit bigger
I really liked the look of the Classics. Bought both and returned both. The 42mm a good size but barely got a day out of its battery. The 46mm is just too big. I am rating the 42mm. I tried them both for a week.
The watch just can't keep up with my heart rate whenever I do HIIT workouts - it just stops showing the number when my heart rate spikes. And then it only starts displaying the number again after my heart rate comes down considerably. When I check the heart rate history afterwards, it's as if I never exercised. Not what you are looking to get out of your smartwatch.
Nice watch but the band and battery are not the greatest. Upgraded the band and the buckle (silver) does not match my watch frame (pink gold). Previous model had buckles you can swap out to match but not sure why the newer model does not. Also, the battery drains quickly!
This watch does not work very well. It does not come on when you raise your hand nor does keep the right time. The face has a photo in it but the time show in the example display shows instead of the real time. It shows 10:08 on Sunday which it is every minute of every day. If you push the upper button several times it might update to the correct time and date but this make the watch horrible.
This started after a software update. Maybe Samsung will fix this problem before I return it?
The only option is to send the watch in to be inspected. It should be under warranty, but the fine print on the return label says that it might not be, and if they decide that it isn't - then I have to pay more money to get my almost brand new watch fixed and sent back to me.
Dissatisfied with the product quality and the options given to resolve the issue.
