I love everything about my watch except the battery life. I did figure out if I made it only turn on when I hit the button the battery life went from less than 24hrs to about 2.5 days. So this is how I am using it now.
Very nice watch, does seem faster than the 6. But the battery life is a lot worse, even when i turn off everything, it drains faster than the 6.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Wireless Charging by using Samsung phone
on October 5, 2024

I love my new watch, galaxy 7, however I just discovered that I can not charge by using the wireless option on my Samsung phone. I came across a tutorial stating it is due to the design of this watch. Is that true or has anybody been able to charge it wireless by just placing in on the back of your phone? If that is the case why Samsung would you do this? Design oops?
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor battery life

I bought this around two months ago thinking it would be an upgrade from my watch 5 pro. The improvements are minimal. The bezel is slightly better. The thickness is barely different. The battery is terrible. I wish I hadn't traded in my old watch and its too late to return it. I may have had better luck with the the 7pro but I didn't feel like it presented enough of a value and I hated the rpund/square shape.

Thanks for reaching out and expressing your candid feedback, FrJoel. All feedback we get from our customers is invaluable. We see that you reached out regarding the Galaxy Watch7. Making sure you receive the correct amount of sleep each night is easy when you use the AI sleep analysis features on the Galaxy Watch7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra. Simply wear your watch when it’s time to turn in for the night and allow it to monitor and calculate your sleep data, such as your blood oxygen and skin temperature. Your watch can also detect sleep-related breathing disorders, such as sleep apnea. Samsung Health can track your sleep through a connected Wearable, such as a Galaxy Watch. If you have a connected watch, but believe your sleep data is inaccurate or not recording, try the steps in the guide in the link provided. If this persists, please reach out to us at Samsung Support so that we can further assist you with this. -Kelvin https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshoot/TSG10003901/ 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
