Samsung Galaxy Watch 46mm SM-R800
What makes the Samsung Galaxy Watch so good, apart from its performance, is the fact that it actually looks like a watch!
A real watch
The Galaxy watch gives a feeling of authenticity thanks to a round face, watch hand shadowing and even the sound of ticking. If you like the look of a real watch, with added smart technology, this is for you.
Customise your watch
What makes the Samsung Galaxy Watch such a standout device is the ability for you to customise it to suit your lifestyle. Bluetooth or standalone LTE models are available, as well as a variety of body sizes and watch faces.
A strapping good watch
As for straps, go with the silicone selection, which comes with the watch, or use one of your own. The Galaxy Watch is compatible with 20mm and 22mm straps, depending on the size you choose.
Always On
Why press a button or turn the bezel on when you don't need to? Simply set the S-AMOLED display so you can see the time at all hours.
More fitness focused
The Samsung Galaxy watch more than holds its own against similar fitness tracking devices, with extra sensors and a revamped Samsung Health app. It auto-detects six of 39 exercises, and pushes you along when you need to up the pace. Sleep, an important part of any health regime, is monitored by an improved tracker.
Staying connected
The Galaxy watch gives you the potential to take calls and messages on the go, and tune into your favourite sounds on the run.

I bought this watch on pre-order so have had it now 6 months now. So the good points: It looks good It's not weighty Plenty of customisable watch faces Plenty of straps available I like the notifications (email/text/whatsapp/facebook) Telephone calls The bad points: sleep monitoring only seems to...
Works great with iPhone too!
I've always had an Apple watch and iPhone; with the new galaxy watch coming out I was sceptical on wether the compatibility would be there; but boy was I impressed. Sure it dosnt have reply functions or Siri; and I can use all the things that I never used on the Apple Watch but for a smart watch...
Do not buy this watch if you plan to swim with it.
Do not buy this watch if you plan to swim with it. Even though it has a swim mode, the warranty does not cover water damage. Mine went into an infinite reboot loop while I was swimming with it. Samsung confirmed it was still in the warranty period and instructed me to send it in for repair.
After going on line and checking all the reviews I decided to purchase the Samsung Galaxy watch. I was replacing a Fossil Q 3rd gen smartwatch that was having battery issues. Well first off I find that I cannot access my Google email account because the watch is not compatible with my Moto G phone.
Happy husband! He loves it.
I got one for my husband after he admired our son's watch. I was doubtful that he would wear it daily and charge it as needed. So far, so good! Lots of nice features. He likes to answer his phone on it. My only disappointment was that part of one of the two chargers were missing.
