Before I committed to purchase this watch I Was promised this watch would pair with my Samsung tablet. It will not so Samsung help lied to me. The watch is not really that user friendly. Battery could be better. What since does it make to not allow your watch to pair with your tablet. Poor engineering .
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The upgrade from my previous Galaxy Watch4 has been spectacular. I love the look of this watch and the performance is fantastic. Operation is smooth and responsive. The sensors are always spot on with measurement of all my activity. The new gestures are useful and I am happy with the new band design and backward compatibility with all of my old bands. This is a great watch that I highly recommend for anyone who wants a quality watch at an accessible price point.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm not sure why people complain about the battery. If you leave it to where the display is always on then of course it's going to drain the battery lol. Also, putting it into battery saving mode helps! For example: I put the watch on once I left for work at 8am, it is now a little after 8pm and it's at 78% so, I think that's pretty good. Battery is a vast improvement. I upgraded from my 4 which was a 40mm and wanted to get the ultra but 47mm is too big for my wrist, 44mm is just right. Overall, I'm happy about all the other features but my main concerns were a longer battery and slightly bigger screen. I would definitely recommend
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 is sleek, stylish, and packed with useful features. Its fitness tracking and health monitoring are accurate, and the battery life lasts for days. The watch pairs seamlessly with my phone, making it perfect for staying connected on the go. Highly recommend for both fitness enthusiasts and casual users!
At first I had troubles with changing watches, couldn't restore from my backup to the new watch, then the backup showed up as non-existent. I finally succumbed to the idea of not having those watch faces etc on the new watch due to the change in operating systems etc. After finally getting over that and getting the connection set up to my OnePlus phone I worked on making it work for me. I've had it for almost a month now, still learning things it does that I didn't know about, figuring out some of the depth of details it has that the 3 just didn't. Overall it's a huge upgrade, if I had a Samsung phone there are other health details I would have that I don't, but still it gives me reams more info than I had before. So I'm satisfied with it, had to modify my expectations a bit so I could learn how the new system works, but overall I'm very happy with the watch and the info that I'm getting from it. BTW, I had thought to change over to my old watch band from the Galaxy 3, but found that wasn't such a good idea. The band that comes with it works pretty well so I won't change that out.
Previously had the original Galaxy watch, the galaxy 4, and now the 7. The I can't speak for generational changes but it definitely has a great feel and feature set. Very satisfied with the upgrade.
The watch does most of what we bought it for. Tracks sleep, exercise , steps etc. The one thing it will not do is track climbing stairs. Not a big deal but it should do it if they make the claim.
So, I upgraded from a Galaxy5 expecting the battery life to be better and longer. I was getting about a day and a half on a full charge and using just as an al day watch, no music or phone calls. The 7 appears to have the same issue, the battery life doesn't appear to be much better, I would expect the battery to last 3 to 4 days when not being used for other applications, I might be getting 2 days on a full charge now.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
