L O V E ! And I've tried many many watches....
I absolutely love this Samsung Galaxy Watch. It paired seamlessly with my new Galaxy Note 9. Setup too no time. As soon as I turned the watch on, my phone lit up saying it detected a watch needing setup.
I have used many smart watches and fitness trackers. I currently have a FitBit Versa and Charge HR, and an Apple Watch Series 3 + Cellular. This Galaxy Watch takes the cake. It does everything the rest do, and then some. The model I have is not cellular, however within bluetooth range you can make calls and text through it. The battery life lasts DAYS, which is a MAJOR difference between this and my Apple Watch which was my old favorite. The Apple Watch lasts a day and a half at best, which becomes irritating having to charge so frequently.
Something else this does that the Apple Watch and FitBit do not, is a altimeter and barometer. This little touch is fun to play with, and could be especially useful when on a hike.
The Samsung Health app that pairs with the Galaxy Watch is one of the best fitness and health apps I've used. It aggregates all of the information into one easy to read location. It will show you your steps, your average heart rate, and your minutes active. If you wear it to sleep it will track your sleep patterns and break it down into sleep time and break it down into light sleep, deep sleep and time awake, which is extremely handy.
It also supports Samsung Pay, so you can leave your wallet in the car or at home and stop somewhere to pick up a snack/drink while out and about. I find this useful when I go on a jog, so I don't have to take anything extra with me.
I highly recommend this watch. It's stylish, and offers far more features than the competition!
