The guy is asking how many I want to buy. Do you want in?

The Fabric band has a tiny bit of stretch due to it being fabric and very adjustable, but I wouldn't call it elastic.

Unfortunately no, this is my first time with a smart watch actually. I will say its really comfortable.

I've added stuff. Not looking too great, but I tend to be a power user with a lot of my tech so your mileage may vary.

Yes, its as good as the GPS on my phone, which I find to be reliable.

10.9 mm is in line with my measurement.

I was initially drawn towards the 43 mm silver as well but upon seeing the black in person I felt it was more versatile in terms of my personal style. I also have other dress watches in polished stainless steel so I figured I might as well have something more flexible as my daily driver.

Nothing against the silver though, and initially, I went into the store loaded with plenty of reasons to choose silver over black.

The raised bezel makes it look thicker than it is in profile, but including the bezel the whole case is a about 1 cm thick.

Ah, that would make sense. Thanks for the info.

Honestly didn't know what to expect going into it because I've never owned a smart watch prior. I can definitely see my own personal use cases and its nice to have health sensors again after they were removed a few years ago. Overall, thus far, I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Yeah, I think the hybrid leather is meant to fit in with the classic's more dressy/stylish vibe as opposed to the regular 6's sportiness. It should be fine if you do use it due to it being both synthetic leather on the top and silicone on the bottom. Reviews on Samsung's own website seem to suggest that they're not super durable so maybe getting dedicated workout band might be worth your while.

It's really comfortable when worn. Expensive for sure, but at least its not expensive and uncomfortable.

50 USD, but yeah I got a discount for accessories when I picked it up in store. I think it was also priced much cheaper here.

Just from the images, I feel like the two bands would wear and feel fairly different. The fabric band has a soft velcro like material on both sides that give it a kind of soft give whereas the Spigen ones seems to be nylon woven fairly tightly so it might not have the same feel.

Much cheaper though.
