Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great features and straightforward to use, battery life is impressive and looks good with an updated strap.

I needed a watch. I have a lot of Samsung items and I figured this one would be good. It's not only good, it's great. I can take phone calls, I can check on health status, and everything. It's easy to read, with a big screen. The only thing I could wish for would be a way to change the dial to something pretty. I've changed out the band to a gorgeous after-market bling, and that band was easy to change. It would be easy to change the screen if there was a link to the website or to an aftermarket site where we could pick up a new face for the watch and install it on the watch. But, other than that, the watch is fabulous, and it's Samsung so it's great stuff.

I mainly bought the watch for the health and sleep tracking which has been excellent. The larger 44mm was my pick for better battery life and it is a little oversized on my 6" wrist, but not terribly. Switching the band to a silicone magnetic third party one definitely improves the fit. The official band that comes with the watch is too thick and rigid and leaves larger gaps around the wrist. Battery life has been great. I have the always on display switched on with continuous health monitoring, and it easily lasts me 24 hours with a short charge while I shower. At end of the day when I charge it, I have about 70% battery still. I don't use it to answer calls or messages, I prefer just using my phone. Very lightweight and comfortable to wear all day even with the larger size. Classic metal watches are definitely more heavy. It integrated seamlessly with my Samsung phone. Would highly recommend!

I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy Watch from Best Buy, and overall I’m really happy with it. The setup was quick and easy, and it synced seamlessly with my phone right away. One of my favorite features is the health tracking—especially the heart rate monitor and sleep tracking. It really helps me stay more aware of my daily habits. The display is bright, clear, and easy to navigate, which makes using it throughout the day super convenient. Battery life has been solid for me, lasting about a full day with regular use. I also like how customizable the watch faces are, so I can switch things up depending on my mood or what I need quick access to. If I had to point out one thing, it would be that I wish the battery lasted just a little longer, especially when using multiple features throughout the day. Overall, I think it’s a great purchase and definitely worth it if you’re looking for a smartwatch that combines style, functionality, and health tracking.

I got this as a means of tracking my heart rate because I have POTS. So I have it set to track constantly. With the way I have it set up, I typically get about 52 hours of battery time from it, which Im happy with. I took away one star because of the fact that there are times the watch cannot keep up with my heart rate changes, which is when I want it to track the most. It will just blink the last number over and over and not register. Ive found that when that happens, I can go to the ecg app and that will register the true current heart rate. So I can at least see it there. But sometimes, even after that, the heart rate still wont load and will continue loading. Kind of defeats my purposes for purchase. One thing that is really nice for someone with POTS, though, is that it comes with an emergency setting that will call for help if it feels a fall. So if you are someone thats a faint risk, it definitely will help you feel more secure by having it set to call someone you trust when you faint. Or even 911 if youd like. I even have mine set that if i fall, it notices, but wont call automatically. I have to swipe for it to call (i just dont want it calling my husband every time it thinks ive fainted, but it's nice to have a way to call easily for help if i do need. And on my wrist. Dont have to track down my phone).

First off, the battery life. Using the watch at minimal settings I am getting 3 days use. Turning a lot of options on it is about 2 days. This is impressive. I like that it detects and pays attention to my bike rides independently. I find that it handles most of the digital interactions i do on a day to day basis flawlessly so i spend less time distracted by my phone, thus increasing my general productivity in life.

Perfect design. Awesome gestures and features. 10/10

Massive upgrade over my previous Watch 5; battery life, processor, screen brightness, speaker, just the whole experience itself is enhanced and measurably better. I had to upgrade due to lagging performance and battery life after 4 years with my previous watch, and this one has delivered!

Very happy with my purchase. Watch has nearly Al the feature as the watch 8 with a much better price and I prefer the traditional look verse the square look of the newest model. Battery life is about 1.5 days with always on turned off. Very comfortable to wear all day and at night to track sleep patterns.

The watch is a very good addition to my phone. The abilities are endless with this watch from apps to controlling functions on your phone. The watch feels comfortable for the size and doesnt hurt or bother you while you sleep. I wish the battery life was longer but I work it around usage for charging. Overall I feel this is a great all around watch and highly recommend. You wont be disappointed.

[Employee of bestbuy] Samsung has released another galaxy watch! This time with a refreshed battery, a brighter screen, and some new cool health overview features that combine its different sensors and the latest "AI" buzzwords to give you a daily energy score. The cool thing is, it does it all well, and it lasts as long as I need a smart watch to. I turned off always on display and left all the other sensors on default. I still have the watch wake automatically when I look at it, and I have the blood oxygen, heart rate, and skin temp on continuous monitoring overnight as I track my sleep apnea with this watch. With all this said, I consistently get about 28 hours of battery with this guy. I charge it before bed while I'm at my desk, I wear it to sleep, and I can juuuust barely wear it the next night to sleep before it needs charging in the morning. This works well for me, and I don't know why people expect more from a smart watch. The screen is easy to see in daylight, and it's been fast and responsive so far. Overall I'm happy with it, but if you own last years model, it's not going to suprise you. This is an upgrade every 3-4 years kind of item.

Looked great out of the box!4 months later and no problems and looks great easy to switch out the band and works perfect holds a charge for almost 2 days. Perfect tool for my job in aviation

The Samsung Galaxy Watch series continues to set the standard for Android smartwatches. With its sharp AMOLED display, premium build, and smooth Wear OS integration, it delivers both style and performance. Health features are robust—ranging from ECG and blood pressure monitoring to body composition analysis and advanced sleep tracking. Fitness users will also appreciate the accurate GPS and wide workout support. Smartwatch functions are equally strong: notifications are seamless, calls can be handled directly from the wrist, and contactless payments are supported. The biggest drawback remains battery life (especially on smaller models), though Pro versions extend this significantly. Compatibility is best with Samsung phones, where all features unlock fully. In short, the Galaxy Watch is one of the most well-rounded smartwatches available today—ideal for Android users who want a balance of fitness, health, and productivity in a stylish package.

I hac a really hard time getting notifications to my watch. You have to grant permission for everything one by one. Doesn't have as many faces as my S3 Frontier. It's ok. Doesn't have the namd for the extra band on it itbgoes inder the wrist band and thats not comfortable. Hard to change tje notification sound.

I absolutely love all of the Samsung watches. I've had each one as early at l as the Samsung 2. They really stepped it up with the galaxy watch 7. The watch itself is beautiful and runs fast. I love the health app and just how long the battery life is. I can go a couple of days without a single charge.

I bought it to replace my watch 6 and it's a significant upgrade way faster with way better battery life

I had an old Samsung g2 that finally started to have problems after almost 8 years and tons of abuse. I got it's latest and greatest, the G7. I love it. I thought the old one worked fine but they actually upgraded it and it works better and much improved functionality and newer options. The battery life is also excellent

Great watch the size is perfect for what I wanted the battery life is great I can go 5 days on it so happy with this purchase

I am currently wearing it while writing this review. Firstly the green is extremely beautiful and it looks so cool. I've become more health conscious and it has made me move around a bit more than I used to. It also seamlessly pairs with my phone (I use a Samsung S24+). I really enjoy this watch tbh. I strongly recommend it! I recommend turning off the always on display though. Saves battery and it's a little annoying when it's always illuminated especially at night.

Even though this watch does not allow texting or talking, only notifications, it has all of the other amazing features of a health specific watch. It keeps you motivated, engaged and confident about your health. Workouts, walking, heart conscious and more. The band is flexible and comfortable. Truly love my new Garmin Vivoactive 5. ❤️ User friendly that surpasses my expectations for a smart watch. Thank you Garmin.
