SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch (42mm), Sleep Monitor, Rose Gold (Bluetooth) (Renewed)

I recently picked up a renewed SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch (42mm), and I have to say, it's been a surprisingly good experience so far. Despite some negative feedback I've seen, my own impressions have been quite positive.Upon receiving the watch, I was pleased to find it in pristine condition, complete with a docking charger and a generic cable charger. Unlike some reports, I haven't encountered any overheating issues with the charger, and the battery life has been holding up well for me, lasting around three days with regular usage.While there have been concerns raised about the accuracy of the health tracking features, it hasn't been a major concern for me personally. The basic functions like step tracking and activity reminders have been working just fine. It's important to ensure the watch is worn correctly and paired with the Samsung Health app, as outlined in the user guide, to get the most out of these features.For those looking to optimize battery life, I recommend downloading the Samsung Wear app and customizing the settings through your phone. It seems that some users may be missing out on this step, leading to unnecessary battery drain from unused apps. Following this advice has helped me maintain solid performance without any issues.Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase, especially considering the affordability of the renewed model. If you're in the market for a smartwatch that handles texting, email notifications, and scheduling tasks effectively, this one certainly fits the bill.

Update a year and a half later. Still great! I wear it to work everyday. Very durable. I wear it everytime I go swimming.This watch has been great! I waited about 4 days so I can get some use out of it and leave an informative review. My package came with the watch and a charger. The charger is not the original, as stated, but I haven't had any issues with it. I received it much earlier than it originally said. I actually still wouldn't have it according to the estimated arrival date it gave me at the time of purchase. I may eventually buy the actual charger they normally come with because it may charge faster but honestly this one works fine. No issues at all. My phone connected right to it the moment I turned the watch on. I thought I'd need to look up a manual or something for set up but your phone and watch walk you right through everything. The step counter is great and seems right on. The leopard print watch band pictured I ordered off of Etsy. It's super easy to use. It took a couple days for the write to text and voice to text to get used to me, but it has now. I've made and received phone calls without problem on it. As the listing says, it is refurbished so there is minor scratches and scuffs on the bezel but nothing that effects the use of the watch and it still looks nice. I've been getting about 2 days off of one charge which is great! To sum things up, I would say this is a great value for what you get! I paid about 1/3 of what I would have new and it's just as functional as though I had bought it new.

This is a great watch! I’m very happy with it . I bought some thinner bands in different colors so I can change up the look. I prefer the thinner bands on the watch

To begin with this is definitely not Rose gold. As you can see from the pictures where I had it next to two items that are rose gold. One of these things is just not like the others, and it's the watch that is found lacking.In the second photo you can see two things, one, the finish is definitely wearing off on the side of the watch. I wish the photo was better quality but, I wish the watch was too. The second thing you will notice in the photo is that the band is not the one that was supposed to be coming with it. The one I was expecting is the one that had ridges or grooves. I like that one much better than the plane smooth silicone. The pink band was also very pink.Last but not least, I had this on the charger for about a day and a half. It was at 100% when I put it on just before bed last night at 10:00. It has now been 14 hours and it's already down to 68%. I was sleeping for most of that time. And I haven't been fidgeting with it or doing any exercise that it could track this morning, which leads me to assume that if I was being active today a full charge would probably last me less than 24 hours.I will be returning this. I really wanted a Samsung watch, and I guess if I want Samsung quality I am going to have to buy new and not refurbished.

The band loops were too loose, fell off, and were lost early on. The free band end had to be trimmed, very ugly. I will be buying a new band at a jewelry shop as I can't install it myself. The watch itself works perfectly, very intuitive. Other than the music symbol having a mind of it's own, appearing and disappearing, I have had no other issues, and that one isn't critical. Love that I can have a Matrix-style sports face daily that tracks my steps, then a rose gold watch face for special occasions. Fast charging, long battery life, 24 hours for me
