More than a year later, still going without charging for days!
By Sabrina on Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2020
I love my Samsung Galaxy Watch! When I was looking for smart watches, I was tempted to buy the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active which was just launched back then. However, that one didn't had all the features that makes this one a great smartwatch. I love being able to pick up a call and talk through the watch, people hear me perfectly and I hear them very well. In addition, when I'm home I connect to WiFi rather than bluetooth, it gives me a greater range and watch does not disconnect when I leave the phone in another room. Pros: -Amazing battery time, can last over a week depending on use. (For example, only connecting BT when not home). -Tracks my stress levels several times a day, it is accurate. Has a relaxation feature with breathing exercises. LOVE IT. -Tracks my BPM, accurate but you need to stay still. -Samsung Health is a good app. I track my bike rides and it syncs with the phone app without any issues. I have yet to use Strava. -Alarms! But also, alarms set on the phone only will also go off on the watch. So no need to have alarms set on watch and phone. BT or WiFi needs to be connected for this. -SmartThings: can control my Samsung Smart TV from my watch (WiFi connected) -Can control Spotify -Find my phone and find my watch functions. Basic functions: -Step counter, not incredible accurate but then again I haven't tried any other device for this. -Calories burned during exercise. -Actual watch, wide range of faces to choose from. Analog, digital, combined, there is a watch face for every taste. Things I have not tried: -Sleep tracking. I mean, the watch is comfortable and all, but I cannot sleep with any accessory on. Some cons, not a big deal for me: -GPS seems to be a little unrealiable. -Sometimes when measuring BPM or stress (which is measure based on BPM) the watch would give an error and ask you to clean the sensor. -That same sensor, will go off when you are not wearing the watch, presumably for the automatic BPM and stress measures, but it should have a way to tell you are not wearing it and not try again and again. But the cons are not a deal breaker for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong or not using it as I should. Anyway, completely recommend this smartwatch even after there is a newer version out there. I don't think the newer ones have this amazing battery life and versatility this one has. That is all, hope this helps. Oh, remember to pair with a Samsung phone to enjoy ALL the features. 😁

Im not sure anymore. Not sure whats up with google maps..

I love the notification and calling features on this watch. I dont have to pull out my phone to answer a text or to make a call i can see and answer them from my watch. I can also make calls from the watch. I have only used the watch for running so far and the metrics look good and I can control the music from my watch. The 42mm watch is large for my very tiny wrists but still comfortable. I really like the rotating bezel to find apps etc. My garmin 735xt was out for repair so i ordered this for the calling features but my first impression is that garmin is still better for tracking sports. Also I like to do sprint tris and the samsung galaxy wont track a tri. I also love that my 735xt battery lasts for 7 days or so. The galaxy seems like I will need to charge it every night. Its a much more attractive watch than the 735xt and i like the barometer and altimeter. I was considering the fenix 5s plus because it has maps and music but it is very pricey. This watch has maps, but they come loaded with only a Korean gps location and so far I cant get it to load my location. I was hoping to use this feature while biking and running but Im not sure this is possible. I swapped the band already because I really didnt like the one it came with. This watch comes in a 4g lte version. I considered this so I could run without my phone, but decided against it since you need to pay another fee to your cellular provider to use it without your phone to make and receive calls. I havent tried loading music on the phone yet but have used the watch to forward and pause tracks while running with i heart radio. I also loaded the navigation app that goes with Google maps. That works so when you set a use google maps on your phone your watch navigates your route Update:. 9/12/18 One of the main reasons i decided on this watch is because I could answer calls on it while working without pulling out my phone. This worked great until the last update, now my watch only buzzes and doesnt tell me who is calling and gives no options for answering. Also I tried to use the find my car app and it doesnt seem to work. The touch screen is lagging sometimes. Also while working out it doesnt seem to read my hear rate. Also I tried to reset the watch and I cant even do that. I am seriously considering returning it even though I loved it for the first 2 weeks.
