[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had a few other smart watches. Switched to 7 watch due to the AI health features; energy score, compare your workouts, Ai heart rate tracker, messaging, and sleep apnea. The AI helped me discover I have sleep apnea, and irregular heart rhythm. Did a sleep test & the test results showed have severe sleep apnea. In addition, seen a cardiologist and my heart rhythm is off seeing the specialist to treat it. This watch is a life saver.
This is the second galaxy 7 watch I've had in 2 weeks... the battery life sucks... turned off stuff and it still doesn't last thru the day... usually about 11am it gets hot and then loses 50% battery life... doesn't track all my steps, definitely don't like this watch.. features are good, battery sucks.. I'm taking it back for the third time and want another watch not this kind... would not recommend...

Thank you for sharing your feedback about the Galaxy Watch 7. We're hate to hear that your experience with battery life and step tracking did not meet your expectations. The new 3nm processor enhances your daily routine, allowing you to quickly switch from checking the weather to tracking your workouts. Additionally, it optimizes battery life for long-lasting power, ensuring that the Galaxy Watch 7 keeps pace with your activities. The Galaxy Watch 7 is designed to provide a variety of features that support a connected lifestyle, so it's disappointing when those features do not perform as expected. We recommend ensuring that your watch is up to date with the latest software version available. If your watch is paired with a Samsung phone you can use Samsung Members to perform a diagnostic on your watch battery. If it passes the test, you'll know the battery is in good condition.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Originally, I had the Galaxy Watch6. Thanks to the awesome discounts and wonderful trade-in value, I was upgraded to the Galaxy Watch7 for $0! Thanks Samsung!
It's fine a fine smart watch for the price. Pros: 1) Nice Screen 2) Fast and responsive 3) Intuitive and easy to use 4) Plenty of customization options
Cons: 1) Battery is very mediocre 2) Sensors no more accurate than the Watch 5 Pro 3) No official band options that look professional 4) No lifted bezzle to protect screen 5) The 'sleep' mode does not disable the wrist raise to wake, which is absolutely a huge issue. Samsung, please fix. If I want the screen, I will press the button like my Watch5 Pro.
Overall, if you've got a Watch5 Pro, then I'd suggest keeping on with that. I just was tired of how slow that watch was, but I am disappointed.
I would recommend this to a friend!
