[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had Samsung smart watches since the beginning (Samsung Gear). The Watch 7 is the best refinement of it. The batter life is great, I get a solid two days from it and that is wearing it when I sleep. Speaking of which, the sleep coaching has helped me with my sleep and also flagged me with potential sleep apnea. Not only does the watch help me with my notifications, but the health tracking is phenomenal. So much so, I plan on getting the Galaxy Ring in the future as they work in tandem.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I previously had The Galaxy watch 6 classic that I loved. Great aesthetics and the bezel was useful. I have AFib so the health features were nice. I upgraded to this version for the additional health features and new sensors. I was concerned that battery usage was going to be an issue however I'm guessing it's the new chip but the battery lasts longer and the health sensors and interface have improved significantly. I am extremely pleased with this watch. Samsung was very generous with the trade-in for the watch six classic and if not for that, I would not have been able to upgrade. The Galaxy AI features the watch uses for the health analysis are really impressive. Overall this watch is definitely highly recommended.
I like all of the health monitoring features, but when I have everything turned on the watch must be charged every single day. The movement prompt does not seem to sense movement, often telling me that it is time to move when I am already walking around or when I have just sat down.
One month after delivery and the dark gray sport band that was supposed to come with my watch is still not in stock. The free athleisure band is not a good color for a men's watch band. If Samsung cared about their customers, they would let people choose which free band instead of the ugly silver band I received.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the new 7! Upgraded from a watch 3 the difference is night and day. I love the galaxy Ai features. My favorite has be to all of the new health tracking abilities. Highly recommend 10 of 10.
I received the galaxy watch 7 non LTE a few weeks ago and am not very pleased. Even with the watch set so that the screen shuts off and can only turn on by tapping the screen or button I'm still needing to charge it with under 30hrs of use. And that is with regular, non "high" cardio days. I love the idea of what the galaxy watch 7 can deliver (it does have a lot), but if I have to bring the charger with me in case I can't make it home that night why bother.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thus watch has kept me in track to my healthy lifestyle. I love that as well when my phone is away I can see my messages and answer calls. Definitely gonna invest in one for my husband!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI has significantly enhanced the messaging experience on my Galaxy Watch, offering tailored reply suggestions based on the context of incoming messages. Furthermore, the Galaxy Watch 7 plays a pivotal role in my health and wellness journey by providing comprehensive insights into various health metrics, including sleep patterns, heart rate, SP02 levels, AGES index, energy levels, and more. My Galaxy watch plays a big role in my life, helping my stay fit & healthy while also keeping me connected.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my watch at work. I love how it reminds me to stand up and get my steps in when I've been sitting at the computer for too long. I wear it to the gym and it has a ton of features to track your workout precisely. It even tracks your stress levels. Very useful wouldn't ask for anything else.
