[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good looking and functional watch. My only real complaint is battery life and complexity for changing the battery myself. They should make watch battery easier to change. However, lots of cool features.
Saving the world just got a whole lot easier with this bad boy! Plus, it has everything from the Galaxy phones of 10 years ago that were taken away and put on the watches.
One of the best upgrades I made this Black Friday.

Just upgraded from the Galaxy Watch 4. There are definitely a few more features that I can enjoy on this model that weren't on the previous generation. I feel more involved with the interactive tech in this watch.
I purchase this for my wife as a replacement for her Garmin whose watch band disintegrated and she had always had problems operating. Since she has a Samsung Galaxy phone I figured it would be an easy switch for her, and I was right. The only currently recognized draw back to this watch is the battery life. My wife's Garmin would last for four days on a charge. The watch 7 is lucky if it gets 2 days. It's very difficult to gauge sleep and movement when you have to constantly take your watch off to charge.
well the battery does die within a day. I have not found out why and i notice my phone battery dies sooner too now. I have not learned the watch totally yet- still trying!
