I totally love my new watch. It has all the updated health monitoring instruments and software to help keep me young. Plus, Samsung has a great old watch turn in program.
The watch is very functional and adapts to the daily life of each person. Personally, I think it is a little big for women. I gave it to my husband. Also, its measurements do not include smaller ones except 40mm, which is not much of a difference. Otherwise, it would be nice if the charge lasted a little longer.
Coming from a Galaxy watch 4 classic, there are definitely pros like the battery life and responsiveness. However the watch freezes every once in a while, which totally negates the faster experience. I also miss the hardware circular ring, the software emulate version is just not as good, and often doesn't trigger correctly. Yes I should've gotten the ultra, but that thing is so ugly. Honestly I regret not buying a watch 6 classic instead, since the hardware doesn't live up to the hype.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Watch 7. The new 3nm processor supercharges your daily routine, allowing you to quickly switch from checking the weather to tracking your workouts. Additionally, it optimizes battery life for long-lasting power, ensuring the Galaxy Watch 7 keeps up with you. We understand your concerns, especially regarding freezing and the rotating bezel feature. If the watch screen is slow to respond, frozen, or not responding at all, the issue could be caused by outdated software, a third-party app, or even the watch's physical condition. Unclean hands, optional accessories, gloves, and sharp objects can also prevent the screen from responding properly.You can also check out the link attached for options to help optimize your watch's performance. If this persists, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01003105/ smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus

Watch 7 is a nice upgrade from the 5. Didn't need to go crazy with the ultra, so this was the one to pick. Color selection on these is great. Got the green. 10/10 would recommend.
Nice watch. Battery life is not really outstanding, could've been better. The bid downgrade is if you pair it with another non Samsung phone ( I have Google Pixel 9 Pro) you won't have blood pressure monitoring and EKG but you still pay the same price... If you can find it at the good discount, buy it.
