[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned this watch for a few weeks, and the Galxy AI features alone make it worth the upgrade. I feel like the health app is more accurate and provides more information compared to my watch 6. I also enjoy the fact that this generation comes in my favorite color, green.
If you don't use your smart watch to it's full potential, the upgrade from the 6 to the 7 might not be worth it, but for someone like me who tracks sleep, health, fitness, etc. This was a worthwhile upgrade.
Poor battery life and sometimes the touchscreen doesn't read when it's touched even though it's not on water mode

We appreciate the outreach, Kyler. It's always great to hear from our valued customers. We noticed that you contacted us regarding your experience with the Galaxy Watch7. If the watch screen is slow to respond, frozen, or not responding at all, the issue could be caused by outdated software, a third-party app, or the watch's physical condition. Unclean hands, optional accessories, gloves, and sharp objects can also prevent the screen from responding properly. Please click on the link attached for troubleshooting options. Regarding the battery, it's highly recommended that you check and ensure that you are running the latest software version available for your Watch7. If any of this persists, please reach out to us at Samsung Support so that we can further assist you. -Kelvin https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01003105/#:~:text=If%20the%20watch%20screen%20is,the%20screen%20from%20responding%20properly.

A little disappointed
on November 30, 2025
Posted by: Old lady
from NY, NY
I like my watch overall but just realized that if I take off my watch before getting out of bed, I lose the entire night's sleep data and analysis. BUMMER. I bought the watch mainly for health monitoring and it's still a learning experience.

I upgraded from a 4, so I had some expectations that there would be some noticeable improvements. I typically use the health features, as well as general notifications and watch features. I don't use the assistant or browser or many 3rd party apps.
So, mostly I don't notice a difference. The battery life is pretty meh, maybe a little improved(still have to disable most everything to get more than a day of life). The apps are all pretty much identical.
On the downside, there's currently some bugs in the new ui that are really very silly, such as being unable to disable notifications for some really obnoxious apps. No real new features that I've noticed.
I got a good deal with trade in, so for the little that cost me I'm happy. I'd never pay retail on it, though.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So cool and hip! It's very comfortable works just as expected. It connects automatically to my phone. I'm still learning all its features so may update later.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Comfortable and reliable
on July 27, 2024
Posted by: Prolithe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a couple of different samsung devices in our home and have had a amazing experience with each of them. The phones are amazing and the galaxy Ai is just a added bonus. From calling my family back home when on deployment to the smart TV entertaining my younger kids with all their favorite shows... our samsung devices have given us far better experiences than similar devices.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not much improvement over watch6. Lost the ability to wirelessly charge from Samsung phone using the reverse wireless power share feature. Galaxy AI features are not useful at all.
