Customers are saying

Customers regard the Galaxy Watch5 Aluminum Smartwatch 40mm BT favorably for its ease of use, numerous features, and stylish design, with many appreciating its comfortable size. However, a significant drawback reported by users is the battery life, which is considered insufficient by many. Other less frequently cited concerns include the absence of a rotating bezel from previous models and limitations with the ECG functionality for non-Samsung phone users. The watch's sleep and step tracking capabilities also receive positive feedback.

    I like this watch a lot. It gives great information all around, like sleep and exercise. I give it 4/5 because the watch can't detect anything about health or sleep through tattoo ink, which sucks since i wear it on my wrist that has a tattoo on it and cannot wear it on the other side.

    It's good, but battery life sucks!

    It seems to be good, wish there was more of an owner's manual to get all the features from this watch. I feel like I was googling so much for the first several weeks and it was just basic stuff. Most days I can't make 24 hours on a single charge, which sucks! Now wondering if I should have gotten the larger 44mm with a bigger battery and possibly long battery life - but I just didn't want the big size of the 44 mm. Hoping to love it more as time goes on.

    This is my first major smart watch purchase and I absolutely love this watch. I used to only have a budget fitness tracker I ordered from Amazon that was pretty inaccurate, but this watch has been everything I hoped for and more. I hear a lot of people complain about battery life, but I get throughout the day on a full charge and still have at least 15%. Fantastic buy!

    So far I love it. I upgraded to this from my Galaxy watch Active 2 and am still discovering the differences. I like the fit better than my older one (they're both the 40mm) which is nice because I have thin wrists and the 2 felt bulky and I don't even notice I have the 5 on. Battery life is good. The only thing I'm irritated with is having to buy a seperate adapter. I just ordered one and am using my charging dock from the 2 at the moment. Otherwise I'm happy so far.

    I bought this as a gift for my daughter who's a college track runner. She love the watch because of its sports design and it feels light on her wrist. She says that the watch makes it easy to run on a track with the Samsung health track workout function which times her from stat to the finish of her race.

    I've had this watch about a month now....I definitely don't use all features...I was upgrading from my previous Samsung watch...which this has been better. It's nice & sleek...more vibrant in.coloring & grahpics. I can't get the band off to change out the colors though. I will say the battery life is worse than my last watch - I can only get about a full day with this one.

    This watch ended up being the perfect size for my wrist (and that's hard to find in my case) and has the features I was looking for in a smartwatch. It pairs easily with my Samsung Galaxy phone and has been a real trooper for battery life! The watch gained a small nick in the edge of the glass from colliding with a stone countertop on day 2, but it's not really noticeable. I've been unable to get a good EKG reading off the watch, but all other functions work perfectly.

    I absolutely love my Samsung watch. I have to first say I love the color! Purple is my favorite and I knew I had to have it. I love everything about this watch. From all the apps i can add to being able just to talk from my watch. My watch charges pretty quickly and the battery life is amazing.
