Love the look and the feel of the watch. Fits great on the wrist and works better under my shirt cuff then the Watch 7. The screen is clearer and the watch faces available are clean and plentiful.

I absolutely loved my Galaxy watch up until the last update. They "improved" it so much I'm about to take it off and throw it in the trash! Features I use and need won't come up; my screen swipe functions don't work. And every time it comes on I get a screen to set up Gemini, even though I have supposedly turned it off on my phone app. I do NOT want Gemini on my watch. There is so much pushy, obnoxious bloatware! The watch I used to like so much is a piece of crap now.
