Samsung will not repair swim-ready Gear Fit 2 Pro - Water Damage
I had this watch for 2 months. It is nice when it works.
It supposed to be swim-ready - this is how Samsung advertise them on the website (literally: the site has a picture of the guy coming out of the pool with the title "Take the plunge").
Watch is dead now after two short trips to the swimming pool .
Samsung will not repair or replace it because it has WATER DAMAGE.
I can assure you that I was never near limits of the advertised water resistance (50meters or 5 ATM).
Samsung insists that it is my fault that I took Gear Fit 2 Pro watch into the water, even though they added a dedicated swimming workout to the watch software.
I guess I supposed to do a swimming workout outside of the pool :-)
I strongly do not recommend to buy this watch.
