It's cute and works just fine! Only issue I have is how it frequently disconnects from my phone when it's literally close? It's annoying but a minor issue I can handle. Other than that i like it, works just fine and is convenient for me.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great looking watch but it doesn't connect to my watch. Have the Galaxy 6 classic and had no problems. Seriously not happy. None of the suggested fixes do not work!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using my galaxy A15 for almost everyday activities is great and I get good responses on the things that I choose to use here with the A15. I have relayed on the device for complex situations and was appreciative with the results. My Samsung A15 is one phone I would like to up grade to the time is right.
The Galaxy 8 watch trumps the Galaxy 6. The 8 is way more user friendly even tho they are pretty much almost the same in design. I almost didn't buy a new watch bc I hated my Galaxy 6 so much. I liked my Galaxy 3 better than the 6!!! So if you're looking to upgrade, this is your sign!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome watch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This watch is absolutely amazing. The style is very comfy, perfect for any small wrist. My favorite part is the alarm clock. You can play music instead of a chirp sound and boy is it loud. The health options are also great. And very acurate.
