[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the new Samsung watch it is incredible. With so many new features, I love it !!!!! Sits perfectly on my hand wrist is so much thinner and looks stylish. Thank you guys 😊
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I updated from Galaxy Watch 4 to Galaxy Watch 9, the Watch 9 is great. It has more features. I am learning every day what that watch can do. I glad I made the choice to upgrade.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose watch 9 after my watch 5 finally died. Smooth startup and so far a much improved experience. Battery life is what makes a difference. Old one would never last the day.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] New beginnings since I haven’t been with Samsung in many years coming back was definitely what I needed. I chose the Galaxy watch 8 for my health. I chose me this new watch will help me along my health journey as a 53-year-old woman it will help me to be aware of my sleep happens as well as physical activity. I love the design and how lightweight it is on my wrist.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am completely obsessed with my new Samsung Watch 9! 😍⌚️ First, the fit is AMAZING. It’s so comfortable and lightweight that after a little while, I honestly forget I’m even wearing it—which is exactly what I want in a smartwatch. One of my absolute favorite features is being able to customize the watch face with my own photos. 💕 I love being able to make my watch feel completely mine instead of being stuck with a handful of generic designs. But Samsung REALLY nailed the new software and glass design. Swiping through the screens is unbelievably smooth—seriously, it feels like BUTTER. 😂 Everything feels fast, fluid, responsive and incredibly polished. The combination of the gorgeous display, updated software, smooth navigation, customization and ridiculously comfortable fit makes this easily one of my favorite Samsung upgrades. If you love customizing your tech and want a smartwatch that looks beautiful, feels fantastic on your wrist and is just plain FUN to use—this one is a winner. Samsung absolutely knocked it out of the park with this watch. Freaking AMAZING! 💖⌚️✨
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose these for its features. Mainly it's hi fidelity audio, and it's 2 different audio drivers.. Great investment.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first wearable and it wont be the last. I am happy that I chose the watch 9. I am still unlocking new features and getting used to every function
For the first few weeks I owned my Watch 9, 40mm Bluetooth version, it was great, battery life was excellent. It was comfortable to wear and battery life was as good as my Watch 8. However the last 4 days battery life has been terrible. I cant even get 12 hours out of it before the battery is almost drained. I contacted support, they were no help at all. Unfortunately I traded in my Watch 8 for this Watch 9 and already mailed it back to Samsung. Samsung says if I return my Watch 9, I cant have my Watch 8 back. Which is ridiculous, they know which one they have is mine, because they inspect it and give a report if it passed inspection or not. So now I'm stuck with a useless watch 9. They insist there is nothing wrong with it because the battery test app says its fine, but clearly its not. Also bizarre, its charging way too fast. Normally its 90 minutes to close to 2 hours to charge from 10% to 100%, but when this battery drain issue started, its also charging crazy fast. Like under 30 minutes for 10% to 100%. I dont know if there was an update in the last week, or if it just suddenly became defective, but I'm seeing people on Reddit and Samsung Members app complaining of the same issue. While Samsung pretends nothing is wrong. I've had numerous Samsung watches over the years and never had an issue with any of them. I'm extremely disappointed wit this one. Do better Samsung and stop denying there is a problem and fix it.
