SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch 6 44mm LTE , Fitness Tracker, Personalized HR Zones, Advanced Sleep Coaching, Heart Monitor, BIA Sensor for Health Wellness Insights, Big Screen, US Version, Silver (Renewed)

This is a Bluetooth only Galaxy Watch 6 Classic in 47mm size. It is the classic version so it has a rotating bezel. The one I ordered is a stainless steel silver color and has a gray silicone band. It is the third galaxy watch I have had, but the first I have purchased "renewed." Out of the box it took about 8 minutes to set up. The initial setup started as soon as I turned on the watch and my phone found it (I didn't even have to open the Galaxy Wear app, but that is probably because I already had a Galaxy Watch 4 connected.) The only hitches in the setup were with the Google tie in to the watch, I had to do two steps twice to get them to complete. The downside on the watch as received is that is had roughly a 5% charge, so getting started with updates, connection, setup, etc. without putting it on a charger would have been an issue. I put it on a charger and continued the process once I realized the battery was so low. I would recommend charging the watch first before starting the process to be safe. The watch came in a zip lock plastic bag and the only other thing in the box was a magnetic charger base that plugs into a USB A port. There were no instructions or any other items, so for a user who is new to a Galaxy watch this could be a bit of a problem. The watch looks very good, the case looks like new, the strap looks like new, the display also looks like new, only the black outer part of the back looks like it has seen some wear. I plan to give it a thorough cleaning with the disposable alcohol cleaning towelettes that I use to clean glasses once it is fully charged. Because I had already used a Galaxy watch, the setup transferred all my settings, apps, and the watch face to this watch, which probably shortens the setup time. A 47mm watch size is pretty large, so it might not be preferable for smaller wrists, but I am hopeful that the battery may last a little longer than the 43/44mm models. The watch uses the same quick release 20mm bands that most other Galaxy watches use, which I consider to be a huge advantage over custom bands. The renewed sixth generation watch cost about 43% of what a new similar seventh generation watch costs, so I thought is was worth taking the chance on a renewed watch. The watch is a little heavier than the forth gen basic version I have, but I think the larger case and rotating bezel are worth the extra weight.

Okay, so I finally caved and got the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, and honestly? I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner! I was a bit hesitant about the price tag, but after a week of wearing this thing, I can confidently say it's worth every penny.First off, it just looks fantastic. The rotating bezel is back, and it feels so satisfying to click through menus. It gives it a real classic watch vibe, which I love. The screen is super crisp and bright, even when I'm out in the sun trying to read my notifications.Setting it up was a breeze – it paired with my Samsung phone instantly. I was a little worried about the battery life after reading some reviews, but it's been surprisingly good for me. I can easily get through a full day and night, even with using the sleep tracking and some light exercise tracking. I usually just pop it on the charger while I'm getting ready in the morning, and it's good to go again.Speaking of tracking, this watch is a beast! It tracks everything – my steps, my workouts (and it automatically detects some!), my sleep quality (which is actually pretty insightful), and even my heart rate and blood oxygen. It's given me a much better picture of my overall health and has motivated me to move more.The notifications are super handy too. I can see texts, emails, and app alerts right on my wrist, so I don't have to constantly pull out my phone. I can even reply to quick messages directly from the watch, which is a lifesaver when my hands are full.Honestly, I can't think of any major downsides. Maybe the price is a bit steep for some, but for the features and the premium feel, I think it's justified. If you're looking for a smartwatch that looks great, is packed with features, and actually makes your life a little easier, the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic is a winner in my book. I'm absolutely loving it!

What I Liked:I’ve had prior experience with tech refurb work through T-Mobile, so I tend to keep my expectations in check with Amazon Renewed products, but this one genuinely impressed me. The Galaxy Watch 6 Classic I received was near mint, cosmetically flawless, and has been running perfectly after several weeks of daily use.I was expecting to see some telltale signs of refurb wear like battery drain, slow charging, or connectivity issues.. I’ve experienced none of that. Battery life is solid, the LTE and Bluetooth connections are stable, and everything works exactly as intended.The rotating bezel is easily one of the best parts of the experience—responsive, smooth, and satisfying to use. The watch is comfortable on the wrist and packed with features like HR zones, sleep tracking, and health insights that all seem to function without hiccups. I actually liked it so much I bought one for my wife too. it hasn’t left her wrist since.What Could Be Better:The OEM watch band is the weakest part of the setup. It gets the job done, but it feels cheap and lacks comfort. I'd recommend upgrading to a quality aftermarket band to really round out the experience.Bottom Line:For a renewed device, this exceeded all expectations. Near-new condition, reliable function, and all the smart features working as advertised. If you’re on the fence about buying this renewed, don’t be. Just plan to grab a better band, and you’re set.
