I traded my 5 in for the 7. The battery duration made it worth the trade. The 7 is more responsive than the 5. I also got the Athliesure band which I do not reccomend. It was bulky and hard to fasten. I do like the way Samsung bands are easily changeable with a push of a button.
Battery is awful. This new one won't last a day. I put it on at 7 am and it dies by 8 pm. If you want something that it die before your day is over, get this. The features are great.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This new upgrade is amazing. Battery health improved a lot and almost getting 2 days of regular usage with 1 full charge. Even the screen size is bigger compared to galaxy 4. Very happy with my upgrade.
I love this watch. Such an upgrade from my watch5. I do wish they made them for smaller wrist like mine as this tends to look a little bulky on me. Love all the features of the watch 7. Now all the apps need to be capable!
For about the same price as a Fitbit Charge, this watch offers a whole lot more features. I love being able to preview what the camera 'sees' with the remote shutter.
