The Galaxy Watch7 is a great watch. Love the sleek form factor and subtle green band with accent stitching. This watch is very responsive with the new processor. The one area I see for improvement is battery life but at least for now (while it's still new) it will get me through a day.
Great upgrade coming from a Galaxy watch 4 classic. Miss the rotating vessel, but still a great watch. I love the new features the AEG and the energy score, that is great. The battery is for sure an upgrade. Excellent smartwatch overall.
This is a great watch. I have owned a number of Galaxy watches and this one is the most impressive. I read that some people are experience battery issues but I have not noticed any issue. I expect my watch to last the day. I put it on my charger as I get ready for bed and do some reading, and then put it back on to track my sleep. The accuracy of measurements seem to have improved, especially the weight and fat percentage values. They don't fluctuate as much -- that could be the better sensors. I do like the classic with the rotating bezel, but this one feels better without the rotating bezel because it is bigger. It looks nicer with a suit.
The battery only lasts 8-10 hours with very light use. Starting fully charged in the morning the galaxy 7 goes into power saving by mid-afternoon and is dead by dinner. This is with no exercise or audio playback, just casual use - checking the time and responding to the occasional text.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Battery life is horrible. Watch is dead after 5 hours. Tried to factory reset, even try to disable all the futures, still not helping. I see many people having same issue.
