According to our smartwatch expert
The Samsung Gear Sport is a smartwatch that doesn't just update you on smartphone notifications, but also measures your health and activity all day long. The screen shows different bars that tell you how close you are to achieving your fitness goals. You can also easily track your nutrition, and the watch tells you how many calories you've eaten and how many you've burned. During exercise, the GPS and heart rate sensor measure important data, such as your heart rate, speed, route, and distance. Thanks to it being fully waterproof, you can also use the smartwatch when swimming. Samsung Gear's unique feature is the rotating bezel on the round watch case that allows you to easily scroll through all functions.

Owned for 3 weeks now. Long doubted between Garmin or TomTom, but eventually opted for the Gear Sport. Beautiful watch with sturdy strap (is very easy to change), suitable for various sports but also to wear during a party, birthday because of the design but also because you can adjust the dial to your heart's content, it looks really nice. Also possible to download additional watch faces, paid but also free. In normal use, it goes approx. 2 days, on my 10 km run I use 10% of the battery, and then I have GPS and "screen always on". I use it for running and cycling and so far it does almost everything fine, GPS connection works quickly and accurately for me, I tested it with my phone (S7) with Samsung Health app and then simultaneously with both the Runkeeper and the Endomondo app . The distances did not differ much, at 10 km approx. at most 100 meters. You don't need to bring your phone for this, the watch can be done by itself, the data will still be synchronized when you get home. Works great via bluetooth with the Samsung Health app. The only downside I think is that the route animation of your round is not always synced to your phone, sometimes it does not. Furthermore, all the data you want will be sent to your phone. You can even control Philips Hue lamps with it (paid app) and Spotify. It also has an altimeter, sleep tracking (a nice widget), SVoice, a calendar clock, world clock, etc. Functions such as pedometer, walking stairs and calorie consumption do not interest me. Measuring heart rate is again a nice addition. Also possibility to add photos and music, after installation there is everything (without photos and music) approx. 1.5 GB of space left. You can also choose which messages you want to receive (via WiFi or bluetooth): Whatsapp, mail, news from e.g. Nu.nl In short, for me as an average recreational athlete and gadget freak, this is the ideal watch.

I like the Samsung Gear sport because I can monitor my daily calorie consumption and exercise well. Gives me a good idea of what I can improve on.

Owned for a while now and so real experience with it. I think it's a nice watch to look at and it fits well, not too big. After playing for a while, a number of functions remain. My different watch faces is nice. Nice to quickly read messages without having to pick up the phone. In practice I rarely use the other options. I think it's stupid that you can't force the screen to stay clear during exercise (MTBs) in my case, while always on. I don't have time to push buttons then. The heart rate measurement is also not particularly accurate, but it is a nice addition to the training. Another problem I find is the rigid attitude of Samsung with regard to software options. Other parties don't get enough access in my opinion... I would like to be able to see my ip cameras through my watch, but there aren't many options for that (or, I haven't found them yet). The battery life keeps getting used to. Charge your watch every other day and the bedside table will be full...
I'm happy with it because of design and variation in watch faces, but I don't use the really extensive smartwatch options.
