Would give 0 stars if it were an option. Battery is supposed to run for 40 hours? My husband's and mine don't even last 4! What a joke. Very difficult to set up. Also has to keep re connecting to our mobile carriers service. We have perfect service at our home and around most of our city. Don't waste your time or money! Will be returning.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I "upgraded" from the original Galaxy watch and have had this Galaxy4 Classic for a couple of weeks now...here are my thoughts. The battery is terrible. Barely get one day and one night before you have to charge it. Plan on charging every single day. This is much worse than the original galaxy watch. Even after tweaking the settings, the battery is awful. Next, the Wear OS is cumbersome and confusing compared to the original galaxy watch. You have to install on the phone and the watch to make it work. Also, MUCH less options for watch faces than the original Galaxy. Overall, I feel like a sucker for getting the latest, when in fact the original is still a better product. Save your money and stick with the one you have...all the websites saying this is great must be getting paid.

Brought this a couple of days ago and very happy with all of the new features, including the accuracy of the body fat measurement. Had the always on display on since 8:30am and its now 3pm and I'm sitting at 82%. In all honesty I find most of the negative reviews claiming only a few hours of battery and overheating to be disingenuous out favor towards another brand. They should be made to show receipts before being allowed to post a review.
I had the Galaxy2 for a few years, loved it. Got this newer 'better' version...never been so disappointed. I can't get through a full shift at work before the watch is dead. I turned on all the power saving modes; still dead within 7 hours tops, with the power saving features on. What's the point of a Smartwatch, if it does not get through a 15 hour period without having to be recharged?

I have had a few watches but this is the first one that I love the look & fit of. It looks very sleek & you can dress it up or down. My only complaint is the battery life, I have everything turned on & it lasts about a day and a half. I know I can optimize the battery life by turning some options off but what's the point of having a smart watch with all of these features if I can't readily have them all right at my finger tips.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I moved up from the original Galaxy watch, and am impressed by the performance and screen improvements, but:
Of my multiple chargers, NONE but the supplied charger work without overheating the watch and putting it into airplane mode. This really needs to be fixed.
The new OS is nice and reminiscent of Tizen, but the app drawer is as organized as a junk drawer compared to the rotating app selector. I am hoping Samsung or a 3rd party can fix this.
