Solid upgrade
on July 30, 2024
Posted by: SammyFan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was initially hesitant to upgrade to the Watch7 from my old Watch5 Pro because of the battery. The 5 Pro had a much larger battery but it was also 2 years old. I was hopeful that the newer 7 with updated chips and fresh battery would be close in battery life. I've not been disappointed so. After a week of use, it seems to pretty effectively run 2 full days on a charge. This includes sleep tracking every night. It's not quite as long as my old 5 Pro, which could make almost 3 days, but it's acceptable to me given the thinner profile and lighter weight. I also didn't think I would like the silver band (it was all that was available) but I actually do. I only wish they still had the magnetic D-band clasp.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I saw the generous pre-order trade in offer for my Galaxy Watch 5 I decided that I didn't want to wait another year for the Galaxy Watch 8. I'm glad that I decided to go ahead with the upgrade. My new 40mm Watch 7 is noticeably more responsive and integrates well with Samsung Health on my Galaxy S24+ phone making it easy to track my workouts. I also had been using a third party watch face on my Galaxy 5 watch which offered a number of custom complications, but discovered Samsung's new Ultra Info Board watch face for the Galaxy 7 that offers up to seven such complications so I don't need a third party watch face anymore. I really like the new watch face. I've set it up so that at a glance I can see my heartbeat, step count, weather and the battery charge level and with one tap I can start my timer, stopwatch or begin a Samsung Health walking workout. Aesthetically, I would have moved the time on the watch face down more towards the center of the face but that's really a nitpick. The only reason that I didn't give this watch 5 stars is that the color selection is not great. The 40mm version only comes in green and cream. The best choice for me was a green watch and sport band. It actually has a lot of gray in it and looks better than I thought it would but it's still not great. These colors remind me of a cheap watch from a discount store. My old black Watch 5 with its black band simply looked a lot classier. Samsung needs to bring back the black color choice.
Doesn't keep track of my sleep. For the past week it says I have not had more than 3 1\2 hours of sleep a night when I know I'm sleeping more than that.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Galaxy 7 Watch
on July 30, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Currently using it to replace Galaxy 6 watch. Product is similar to previous Galaxy 6 iteration, but seems more secure due to the sports strap being ridged. Overall plus. New energy score addition seems like a neat feature, but can affect mentality for better or worse.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from a 5 Pro and so far I'm incredibly impressed with it. It looks beautiful, runs beautifully, the band is beautiful and every feature so far is running flawlessly. I love the integration of Galaxy AI and the implementation of Google Assistant, it makes my life so much easier. The only issue I have is my 5 Pro could last almost 5 days on one charge and so far the 7 is only 2 and a half days. I'm hoping to be able to figure out ways to increase it or maybe bug fixes will help.
Overall it's a beautiful and very well made watch and I love it. You guys are doing beautifully!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I traded the watch 5pro for the watch 7. Huge mistake!!! This watch doesn't hold a charge. I'm lucky to get 8hrs out of it. I also deleted a lot of apps feom the watch. I am not impressed at all. I wish I still had my old watch 5pro. Being able to add my pictures is cool, but the 5pro could do that too, and the battery stayed charged for a couple of days....

The battery life of this watch is really not good. I'm still learning the watch but have changed all the settings that usually suck battery life. Also the tracker is difficult to use compared to my old watch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
