Love my Gear Fit!
on September 19, 2015

This is the second one I have purchased. I was disappointed when the first one I bought died after a few short months. I had purchased it refurbished, which I will not do again. The only thing two things I struggle with are that the heart rate monitor doesn't always work, particularly when I sweat (which is one of the reasons I bought it to begin with...to track my target heart rate) and the mileage is not always accurate (I have measured my running routes with both MapMyRun and my car).
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I received countless compliments daily on the look of my watch. It is the perfect size, shape, and contour to any wrist. It is also extremely durable, it has taken many drops and hits without showing signs of wear. The battery life is phenomenal, it typical last me 3 to 4 days before it requires a charge and I use it constantly. It is quick and easy to access information instead of always looking at my phone, so I can pay attention to what is going on around me and enjoy life.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, battery built to last
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointing Performance but the Time is Accurate
on September 15, 2015

I've had this watch now for 9 months and put it through a lot of paces.
Hard core fitness folks will be disappointed in the reliability of the fitness performance of this device. Tied to my Samsung phone, the path mapping is inconsistent. The calorie calculation is poor. The steps are probably somewhat accurate and gives a decent reference to mileage.
Still don't know how the sleep measurement correlates to whether you slept well. It's based upon movement while you sleep. I can be wide awake, not moving and it shows 100% rest.
The "wake" function of lifting the arm works sometimes and doesn't work sometimes.
There are a lot of functions, but the hiking and cycling only works if you have your phone and you have some level of service.
I do like the connection to the phone where I can quickly see who is calling/texting me without pulling out my phone.
Really not sure it is worth the money.
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, poor accuracy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Works Well, Doesn't Age Well
on September 14, 2015

The GearFit is definitely an upgrade from my FitBit Flex since I have alarms, text message, call notices, along with workout tracking. I got mine in November 2014 and have worn it daily for the last 10 months. It's great for step & workout tracking (walking, skating, weight training) and it doesn't look out of place with my corporate suits and dresses.
Unfortunately, the silver detail around the screen has started to flake off in spots (have less than 50% left). Please make sure the next version is a bit more robust.
The main reason I got the GearFit is that it's at a great price point and doesn't look oddly oversized for my wrist. Thanks Samsung for designing a slim streamlined smartwatch.

Cons: silver trim deteriorates < 10 months

Gear Fit
on September 14, 2015

In an environment where fitness is becoming a priority, this device is working out great for me. I am a beginner when it comes to working out. This device is easy to use and shows me everything that I want to see without picking up my phone. If I want to see more, I can send the message to my phone with the touch of a button. I am a fan of checking my messages and phone calls from my watch. There are a few apps that work well with an overall easy to use interface.
Within the first week I had a perfect understanding of how to use this device and everything that I could do with it. Many of my friends use the Fitbit trackers and this one does everything that the Fitbit does and way more all for a similar cost.

This is a good intermediate between a Fitness tracker and smart watch. I love mine!

Very nice product

With the understanding that this item can only sync with Samsung phones I purchased it. I have thoroughly enjoyed using the Gear Fit. The text and phone call notifications are very useful. Many of the tracking features such as, sleep, cycling, pedometer, heart rate are really great. It has been a topic of conversation among my family and friends. Very nice product.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

It Is Great!

I love my Gear Fit. It is easy to use and I like all the information it gives me. I have a small wrist and it fits me perfectly. I need to keep track of my steps as I am trying to get stronger. I like that it shows me my heart rate. It is nice to be able to see who has sent me an e-mail. It is easy to see at all times. The battery lasts long and it quickly recharges.
Pros: Inexpensive, Bright display, Lightweight, easy to use., good battery, quick recharge
Cons: no con
I would recommend this to a friend!
