[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had the watch 4 classic before this and was needing an upgrade. The battery didn't last as long and it was becoming really slow. I'm glad I got it. It's a great upgrade that is a bigger screen. Bigger battery and overall, just a great unit.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the blood pressure capability. It appears to be fairly accurate when comparing to a cuff monitor. The heart rate and other health monitoring features are also great.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade my old watch 5 with watch 9. The looks are slightly different, hopefully it is as good as 5.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since the original Galaxy Watch, I have been upgrading every two to three generations. I was waiting for a full circular design to come back but my GW6's battery has been draining more quickly than before, so I pre-ordered GW9 on the very first day. As usual, I chose the 44mm with black everything.
Despite my initial hesitation on the squircle design, once it was on my wrist, I actually did not mind at all! The new straps are way more comfortable too. Everything is very responsive and snappy and charging speed as well as battery life are significantly better.
After using it for a little over a week, what I really like the best is the health tracking features with improved sensors for sleep tracking. I wear my GW all the time except for when it's charging and I notice more consistent sleep tracking. Additional health trackers like blood pressure measurement and sleep apnea detection are great too. I don't need to worry about these yet, but once calibrated, the blood pressure measurement was pretty much identical to the one measured by a cuff blood pressure monitor.
All in all, the new GW9 is the perfect watch for those in the Galaxy ecosystem. I honestly don't see any room for improvements now, but I'm eager to see how Samsung improves upon with the following generations.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade to the Galaxy watch 9 from the Galaxy watch 6, confident that I was making an investment to monitor my health and also as additional motivation for my fitness goals and let me say, I have NOT been disappointed! I love the updates, its faster and its everything I was looking for! Im beyond happy with my watch!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using thr Samsung Watch 4 for years. I chose to finally upgrade my watch based on the new Health features available and better battery life. I am definitely able to use my watch longer, overnight, and without battery anxiety. I was a little concerned about the new design on my tiny wrist, as the watch I had previously was a simple circle, but I quickly got used to it, and don't think it looks too large. I'm happy for the band that is completely adjustable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the watch 9 as a replacement for my Samsung watch 5. What an amazing difference! The battery life is good and the watch transferred over to my s26 with no issues at all. Samsung did a great job with this new product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Superb quality you expect from Samsung. Extremely light weight, and very comfortable to wear all day long. The only complain that I have, is that currently, I have the OnePlus 15 phone and a lot of the features available only to Galaxy phones, are not available to me right now. I truly wish I could find an app that can connect some of the features I'm missing right now. Nonetheless, I truly believe these are the best Watches in the market 👍🏻
