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.

    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 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.

    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.

    Best watch for exercise and other personal use! I love how it's easy for me to track my exercise routines and transfers the data to my phone. It's really comfort to have on and it doesn't get in the way of me completing tasks. And the battery life last a long time, where I need to charge my watch every other day, even after all day use.

    I absolutely love this watch, especially for working out, I believe its more accurate in my calorie burns versus my previous watch. I love that I am able to see who is calling and texting me. The only thing I hate is the battery life, I previously had the amazfit watch and the battery lasted at least a week, this watch only last a day or two before having to charge it.
