Upgraded from Galaxy Watch6 seeking improved battery life (even though most reviews simply omitted any comment at all on improved battery life). Installed software upgrade to fix initial battery problems. So far, battery life compared to Galaxy Watch6 is just meh. Some of the other features are better, like sleep, but really, does any of it matter without a battery life that lasts more than a day? Maybe someday... I'll keep trying the upgrade game because I use Samsung phone and THAT integration between phone and watch is really nice. I remain frustrated w/ battery life.
Battery drains so fast even if we keep brightness low

Watch battery life sucked until after the update. I barely got one day of use now its closer to two. The sleep fearure is nice and the measurments are more accurate. I was wanting the ultra but thus watch takes care of my needs. I am so happy i got it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been hesitant to get a smart watch for a couple years as I felt it wouldn't add any additional benefit that my phone didn't already provide. I was wrong, the galaxy watch7 adds tons of features to my everyday life, my favorite being the sleep tracking.
