This is a fantastic watch with style and functionality. It replaced my Galaxy 5 Watch with more innovations.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great everyday tech companion

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy watch 7 is a wonderful gadget to own. It gives an all round assistant throughout the day. Starting from tracking your health stats to assisting in responding to notifications. The health tracking is so great, gives close to accurate figures, always keeping to up to date in terms of health. The Galaxy AI in this device is so smooth. The auto reply promts are so helpful that I use my usage of phones for responding has drastically reduced. I would definitely recommend this product for anyone with keen interest on tracking their workout routines and prioritizing their health goals.
Not as advertised. Battery drains quickly, even in battery saving mode. Liked notificatoin sounds from prior versions better. Wish I'd saved my money and kept my Galaxy 6 watch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The watch is very beautiful, especially the green color, and it is also light, and this is what I was suffering from in the past hour. In general, everything is beautiful and wonderful. I just hope that the battery performance will be improved so that it can keep up with the watches on the market, which are lower than them.

WORST battery life in four generations of watches!
on July 26, 2024
Posted by: TimE
I have owned four generations of this watch, and loved all of them! Today, I truly regret having "upgraded" from my Galaxy Watch 6 to the 7. The six was a much more substantial watch with rotating bezel. The 7 feels flimsy and cheap and the rotating bezel is gone. Worst of all. I can't make it through a work day on the battery. AWFUL battery life. I have to charge it mid-day and then again before bed if I want to use it at night as designed.

Hey Tim! Your feedback is greatly appreciated. It looks like you reached out to share your thoughts on the new Galaxy Watch7. We hate to see that you haven't been satisfied with your new watch so far compared to the older versions. The Galaxy Watch7 includes notable improvements like the new 3nm processor, which enhances performance and power efficiency. This should help improve speed and overall functionality, especially for multitasking and fitness tracking. Battery life is indeed important, and the Galaxy Watch7 features a 425mAh battery in the 44mm version, comparable to the Galaxy Watch6 Classic. However, if you're experiencing a faster drain of battery, it's important to ensure that you are running the latest software available on your watch. Software updates are like oil changes and tune-ups for your phone or tablet - they keep things running smoothly. They also help improve the user interface, enhance security, and remove minor bugs. Check out the link attached for additional options to help optimize your battery performance. We also noted your concerns about the lack of a rotating bezel and the feel of your watch. Again, your feedback is greatly appreciated and invaluable to us. If you are still experiencing shortened battery life after troubleshooting, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at Samsung Support so that we can further assist you. -Kelvin https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01003232/ (optimize battery life) 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
The battery barely gets 17_18 hours on a full charge. I have cut all wifi, location off. Screen wakeup set to touch only. This is my 6 day and the battery has to be charged twice daily to get 24 hours use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great smart watch, little bit complicated without the outer bezel function, battery life should be at least a week. Hopefully Samsung will release wear OS updates to optimize battery management function of apps.
