Buying this Gear Fit2 Pro is the best decision I've made. I returned a Fitbit because it just seemed to be lacking. The online website offered very little. I know the Fitbit is rated high but the Gear Fit2 offers so much more. It has a beautiful, large, amoled touch screen. The step counter is much more accurate than the Fitbit. When I slept at night the former smart band counted thousands of steps ...come on now! With the Gear Fit2 pro it adds maybe a couple hundred. It comes with enough memory to download 500 songs to listen to offline. It's water resistant to 50 meters and has fitness apps for water exercises and swimming. Samsung has a good sized app store to download to your band. There is a library of beautiful watch faces. I have the main face they show in the description. It shows the time, the date with day of week, the temperature with link to AccuWeather, and lists steps, stairs, bpm and calories burned. Also, double click the home button and you're taken to a page with all the apps you have on your band. It also had a back button. The buttons are on the right side as opposed to Fitbit whose home button is on the left side which makes no sense to me. Slide the display to the left and you can read the first line of emails and texts. There are short replies you can use.
Another thing I didn't like on the Fitbit was that the display was on for a very short time with no way to change it. The Gear Fit2 Pro gives you the option to keep the display on all the time or options for how many seconds you want it on.
The only negatives I've found are that the stair app isn't very accurate and that the battery life isn't great. Of course this band is so cool I'm on it all the time which might account for the battery life 😁
So, outside of being a great fitness watch (band) it's really fun to use along with being very beautiful. The stand alone music app is really cool too.

A Minimalistic Multi-Function Watch
After several years of using a fitness watch (ie. Motorola Motorokr S9) especially while running, I love the idea of not needing to carry my phone to track mileage and listen to music. When Motorola stopped updating the firmware / software, I started looking for a good alternative. Gear Fit2 Pro is light and I hardly feel it on my wrist. I love how slick and minimalistic the watch look since I have a small wrist (about 7").Pair it with a bluetooth headset (no audio plug for your wired earphone), I am able to listen to my 180 BPM playlist during training runs and marathons without wires and devices being a distraction. It did cause me to convert from Runkeeper to MapMyRun app for tracking purposes, but that wasn't a deal breaker. The battery is usually down to 50% by the end of the day and would charge it to 100% overnight if I know I will be using it on a run the next day. Otherwise, if I am just wearing it to tell time, keep abreast of my calendar (synced with my Google Calendar), and monitor my sleep cycle, I only need to charge it every other day.In order for the watch to work, you do need to install the Samsung Gear app on your phone to do basic setup (eg. get clock faces, install secondary apps, transfer music from phone to watch, etc.) via Bluetooth. After that, just make sure to turn on the GPS on the watch to use it independently of the phone/app.Last but not least, if you commute alot, make sure to have the watch charger handy. That's the only way to charge your watch and you will need a charging head for plugging the USB cable into a wall outlet. That would be something I wish Samsung would include with the watch. Else, just make sure you can find a USB outlet. Thankfully I use a Samsung phone and have the needed charging head.
