[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy ai feature is phenomenal at monitoring your activity and health throughout the day. If you want to just get a better insight on your health without paying an arm and a leg this is the device you want.

Excellent watch ... I was concerned about the battery, but it only requires recharging every other day.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can't get important features to work
on January 22, 2026
Posted by: Cmf1
I bought this watch to use features such as heart rate BPM and checking on sleep apnea .I still can't get sleep apnea to work even though I've got the watch on super tight and the phone plugged in .I've had it over a month and I still can't figure out how to do almost everything .very confusing for a first time user of Smartwatch maybe I should have got a cheaper one. I also have to charge the battery once a day to keep up with it .the display also won't print big enough letters so I can read it without cheaters .if there was a way you could show me how to use these features correctly it would greatly be appreciated signed disappointed

I love the style of the round face; this is my second watch from Samsung, and I love it.

Great but one thing

Great watch, does everything I need, however Samsung inists on having their wallet preinstalled and active on the watch and you are not able to uninstall it. This is absolutely unacceptable. Samsung, do NOT place apps that you cannot uninstall your devices and think that this is just going to force people to use them. Didn't Microsoft get in trouble for the same thing? Next update, this and all other apps to be able to be uninstalled if the wearer so chooses.
