Battery life
No rotating bezel
It's missing the rotating bezel we loved on previous Samsung watches and comes in only one size with no LTE option. The blood-pressure monitoring is half baked at best. Samsung's Health app doesn't make it easy to locate all your data
You can store music on the watch to listen to when running, or sync your Spotify playlists, Built-in heart rate monitor is simple to use and accurate, It's waterproof and can be used to track swimming, The watch gives you breathing exercises that can help
Lacks some of the most popular apps, such as Google Maps and WhatsApp, To use the Samsung Pay feature you'll need a Sasmung smartphone

Premium feel design, Tizen software has matured
No rotating bezel, Only one size
