Battery life is subpar. I returned the watch as in the 24 hours I owned it I had to charge it 3 separate times with default settings and only factory installed apps installed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your honest review, Twan. We appreciate you sharing your experience with the Watch7. Get to know your body better than ever with our state-of-the-art health sensor.

From your phone, open the Galaxy Wearable app. Depending on your watch, you will either tap Watch settings or tap SETTINGS tab. Then, tap About watch, and then tap Update watch software. Or, tap About Gear, and then tap Update Gear software. If this persists after updating, please reach out to us at Samsung Support for additional assistance. -Kelvin https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01003232/ (optimize battery life) smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus
Just like a computer, most judge the quality based on the output of the software and what you see. Sometimes, that is dependent on the screen or monitor connected to the computer. Same goes for a watch. Is the software functional and do I like the way I get to view the results? With my 44mm Watch7, I can say that the "screen", or the face of my watch is not as protected as all of my prior versions. It seems to all be a part of the upgrade game now. Want a watch with a metal bezel face? Well, pay twice the price as a normal Galaxy watch. It's a shameful marketing ploy by Samsung.
Love my new galaxy watch 7. Very handsome and comfortable to wear however I don't see much difference from my galaxy watch 4 classic. The interface is almost exactly the same.
