    Would buy again at any time / addendum no longer buy

    Addendum:
    Unfortunately, poor software support.
    I had been using the watch with a Huawei P8. Now I have a Huawei P20 and the software for the watch (Gear) does not work. The problem has been known for weeks now and Samsung     seems to be in no hurry, just leaves customers hanging.
    The watch is so unusable. Dis watch only recommended if your Hany is on the compatibility list.

    Still one of the best smart watches.

    APPs:
    The most important apps are pre-installed and the number of installable apps is huge. In particular, there are all kinds of watch faces. It is possible to individually set which APPs are allowed to display information on the watch (is set via APP on the mobile phone).

    Social media:
    Display of messages such as Whatsapp or e-mail also work without any problems. However, only the last message is displayed; scrolling is not possible.

    Calendar:
    Never miss an appointment again. Really great. In contrast to the social media, you can scroll through the calendar here.

    Training:
    If the training function is started like running, the GPS is automatically activated and the running route is recorded on a GoogleMap map. At the same time, pulse, altitude and speed are "measured". Only the GPS data is reasonably accurate. The altitude measurements as well as the pulse measurements are often very strange.

    Music:
    Music can be loaded onto the watch, but the built-in speaker is not suitable for direct music playback. More interesting is the player control of the mobile phone via the watch or the coupling of the watch with Bluetueh headphones or a combination of both.

    Phone calls:
    Similar to music. Not really useful via the watch.
    However, it is still useful and one of the most popular functions. The mobile phone can safely be set to silent, the vibration on the wrist and the discreet glance at the watch to see if the call has to be answered ;-)

    A toy, not a serious smartwatch. Unusable for sporting activities.

    This watch is more of a toy than a serious smartwatch. Heart rate measurement not usable, GPS measures whatever, just not the distance. Calorie consumption is also unusable. Every cheap watch can do that better. Conclusion: Apart from the fact that it can display notifications from the mobile phone, no function actually works seriously - definitely not to be used as a sports tracker.

    Beautiful, round and smart watch :)

    I am very satisfied with the watch so far. Since the latest update it has a lot of new options but also eats up a lot of battery, now I have to charge it 3 times a week instead of 1-2 times. I find the round design very good and beautiful, but it's not so great for the browser app, it looks strange.

    Contra
