Fit3 Silver, Imported Version - Not UK Certified

Superb value for money given that this is genuine Samsung watch. Stylish and comfortable, the band will fit all wrist sizes. You will need to pair it with your phone to get the functionality you want but that was a doddle. As with all of these items, you can't do everything on the watch but we only bother pairing this up when changes are needed. The Samsung Apps are good and seem to work well or as good as you can expect. There's a range of colours and the white one looks pleasant. One thing to note is that this requires a different USB cable for charging than the standard ones. We got a non-branded one as a spare just in case.

Great Smart Watch. Battery life is very good as it lasts for 7 days or so. Also recharging can be done with connecting to Samsung phone, so very easy to do. Very pleased with the watch.

I chose this fit bit as all my other devices are also from Samsung therefore it was very easy to set up. The design is very nice, not too big and the strap very comfortable. Half the time I don't know I'm wearing it. For a fit bit it has everything I need, the only grumble is the step counter as it counts my arm movements too (which is logical as it sits on the wrist). Apart from that it's a very good device and at a very affordable price.

I wanted something to count the steps, heart beat, SPO2 (blood oxygen %), monitor sleep and do the usual things like telling the time, date etc. This watch does all that and so much more, and in my opinion is an amazing amount of tech for the money. It also looks good. I was a little concerned that some of the reviewers had issues with accuracy for such as steps and being unable to get the blood oxygen to work, but thought that for the money (and the warranty) it was worth a try. With regards to the steps, we have compared it to my wife's Fitbit and it is almost identical, so maybe those people who had trouble got a faulty watch. The blood oxygen was a little tricky at first but now I've got it weighed up it works fine, and having compared it with my pulse oximeter (that on it's own cost almost as much as this watch), it is accurate. With regards to battery life it will depend on how you have the display settings. I've set it so that it isn't on all the time and from fully charged it is now showing 50% after three days. Obviously it will run down faster if you have the display on the time. With regards to charging, that is the one source of irritation with this item. As usual Samsung send their kit out with a USB C charger, so you need to buy a USB male to USB C female adaptor to be able to charge it in the billions of normal USB outlets. Why Samsung do this is beyond me, but don't let it stop you buying this watch because a pack of two adaptors from Amazon is less than £3 (SNESH 2Pack USB-C Female to USB Male Adapter, USB C to USB A Adapter). It did come charged to around 65% so it wasn't a problem, but unless you already have an adaptor I would recommend ordering one at the same time as ordering the watch. Just to be clear, the charging part that connects to the watch is a bespoke design (similar to the Fitbit charging cable) that clicks in place by magnetism, so please don't think that you can just plug the USB end in to the watch, the USB C end is the end that you have to plug into a USB power source, hence the need for the adaptor. It doesn't have GPS, which isn't an issue for me, but when connected to your Samsung Phone, that does, and the vast majority of people have their phone with them at all times. If you have a Samsung phone, it has the 'Wear' app and the 'Health' app and you need to connect to that to get the best out of the watch. In fact, I may be wrong, but I can't see how you could set it up without connecting to the Wear app. Not sure how it work with none Samsung phones, I imagine that you would have download the apps. It has loads of features and they are all subscription free. You can check your sleep patterns and so many other things that are far too many to list here. I haven't used hardly any of the features, but there are loads of fitness work outs, and you can set targets and alarms to prompt you get up and do something. You can also personalise the displays via the app, which has lots of alternatives, and you can even set the background to a picture of your dog if you want. My wife's Fitbit is about five years old and compared to this is like a 1980's car compared to a Tesla, so having seen how good mine is, we ordered one for her and she loves it. We both think that this is an amazing watch, not just for the money, but because it is just so good. Especially when you don't need a subscription to get all the features and records.

Its rare for me to get so excited about a piece of tech, but here goes. I have had a series of Fitbits, most recently a Charge6, and I bought this Fit3 to replace that. For me, it is a brilliant product. There are a couple of downsides so I'll put them first 1. It is only for Android watch users. If you use a iPhone, there is no point in reading further 2. It does not have its own gps, that will only function by linking with the gps on your phone. So, if you are a runner, who wants to track his runs and leave the phone behind, this won't do it If that doesn't put you off, the upsides are (and I am comparing mostly to the Charge 6 here) 1. A bigger, clearer screen than the Charge 6 which also shows more data. Compared to the Charge 6 its a step nearer to a smartwatch and away from a 'band' . For me thats a bit of a shame but it totally pays off and I think it looks good. 2. Much easier to use side button + easier to get the screen to light-up just by moving your wrist 3. SOS alarm and fall detector included. I'm hoping I never find out how practical they are 4. Advanced Sleep tracking and other features that are subscription only on FitBit are free with Samsung 5. Blood oxygen levels can be measured - its hard to say how accurate they are 6. Many exercise /work out features included. Its hard for me to compare them to FitBit but they seem comprehensive 7. Battery life is stunning. Not nearly empty after seven days. 11 days seems a likely rule of thumb The most stunning thing is the value. The list price forthe Fit 3 seems to be £59 but there are discounts around and I paid £40! (Maybe a Fit4 is just around the corner?) Meanwhile the Charge6 is for sale at anywhere between £98 and £138, depending on the package / subscription etc. OK, if you use an iPhone or really need gps this is not the answer but, for me anyway, this still looks like the tech bargain of the year Oh, there is one other downside. Like almost all tech products this comes with almost zero instructions. Worse than that, it is hard to find a really good online user-guide. Maybe I have looked in the wrong places but so far its been a question of figure it out for yourself. Otherwise - totally excellent!

Watch is brilliant but DHL which amazon chose to use via its VOC program was not! They allowed my neighbour to take the watches in and didn't ask for them to sign for them! They lied and said i signed for them when in fact I was out and my partner was waiting around for them to show up!! Good job pur neighbours are honest people. Watch is very comfortable and screen is a lovely size and its not heavy... Very compatible with my phone and accuracy seems fantastic...

I use this for activity tracking, step tracking and water tracking and also for getting notifications when I am not active enough during the day and I need a prompt to move. It also alerts me when I am meeting my activity goals for the day. Setting this up was easy, you just downlaod the Samsung Wearable App, charge the watch, turn it on, then turn on the mobile phone Bluetooth and sync the watch to the Samsung Wearable App. When your phone Bluetooth is turned on, it will find the Samsung watch by its name after scanning for devices nearby. Once it is connected you can choose which wrist you want to wear the watch on and it then adjusts the watch face for you. I don't have the option for 'Always On Display' which is in regards to the watch face light being on all day. I also have adaptive brightness on. I always lower the brightness for the watch down to just under half too. Having these options on increases the battery power usage. I turn the phone's Bluetooth on a few times a day to sync the watch data to the phone. I get about 6 to 7 days without having to charge my watch. I let it get down to 10% power as well until I charge it as it stills records data. I have a Samsung fast charge plug and connect this to the charging wire enclosed with the watch, no plug is included with this watch. It also tracks your stress, sleep, blood oxygen, and heart rate under the Health option on the watch which you can link in with the Samsung Health App on your Samsung phone and also control from there. Another point to note is that in the morning when you first turn the watch on, I notice that your steps will not show up on the watch face. But as soon as you synced the watch to the Health App/ Wearable App, the steps will start showing up on the watch. Overall, it met my expectations. It records the data I wanted it to record. It makes it easy to track your steps if that is a key part of your daily logging, it allows you to set reminders for drinking water and to get moving. It also syncs data to Samsung Health app which then allows you to track your behaviour with nice charts and change it as required.

I'll start with a caution - the watch has to use a smart phone app but the instructions for the watch are very vague about which app to use. I am nearly 70 so I got my son (an I.T. engineer with more than 20 years of experience to set it up and even he found it confusing. He did eventually manage it! The watch was reduced in price because it was 'used' but I don't believe it was actually used. I suspect the previous owner simply returned it because he/she couldn't get the b****y thing to work! Right, having got that off my chest, I am pleased with it. Although the strap only barely fits my wrist (I have particularly big wrists - over 9" around) it does sit comfortably and the contacts on the back are always touching my skin. The display is very bright but can be turned down and the battery seems to last a very long time. I am still getting used to it and discovering more and more features so as long as you've PLENTY of patience (or have a friendly I.T. engineer who's willing to spend at least an hour to set it up) I think it's good value.
