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.

    Bought this a year ago when my fitbit went out. I like how it connects to my phone and tracks activties. However I have notice the battery loses charge faster than a year ago

    I really like this watch. I had a fitbit that was good. But, this watch is so much better. I like all the things it's capable of. And the ease of being able to understand the reading of the data. I like the way it wears, it's comfortable.

    Samsung Galaxy watches are so much better than the Fitbits we used to have. We like all the health monitoring it does, esp the stages of sleep. Battery life isn't the best, have to charge twice a day at times. Have to set the settings on low to preserve the battery to get thru the day.

    Great watch. Had fitbits for yrs but the last one my versa 2 did not sync well with my phone. Finally got the samsung watch and its perfect with my phone. Didnt think i would love the round design but i do. Everything about this watch is fantastic. You wont be disappointed.

    I love it. Great job tracking my sleep patterns, eating, can get phone calls and texts on watch. I have found it has become a part of my life within a week. The only thing that could be better is battery life.

    After having a Fitbit Charge 3 for 4-5 years I bought the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 and it is a huge upgrade. It is pretty much a smart phone on your wrist. Still haven't used it to its full potential, but it almost has as many features as a smart phone. Really glad I upgraded.

    Affordable, my boyfriend loves his watch, he originally purchased a way cheaper watch from Amazon and couldn’t do anything with it, with this one, he can text and answer calls, most importantly, he uses it to track his sleep and health

    It's a nice watch. Everything but the ECG feature works with my Pixel phone (you'll need to explicitly download / update Google Assistant in the play store on the watch). You'll need to decide if this watch is worth the premium over the Galaxy Watch 4, since there aren't too many differences.

    LOVE THIS WATCH!!! I don't have any issues with it besides sometimes it doesn't want to stay connected from a bit of a distance but that really isn't that big of a deal. Have really helped me keep track of my steps and how my sleep is.

    One of the best watches I've owned. Wish the battery would go for at least 36 hours but overall really good. Solid day and a half watch

    Works great and is very stylish but feel like the battery life on the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 4 that I had previously was a bit longer. And the charging cable provided has to plug in to the phone which is just terrible design. Definitely need a USB plug charger or a different wireless charger.

    I bought this for my wife to replace a previous model. She loves it! It has many more features than her previous model. She tracks her activity levels during workouts and uses it to keep her vitals within recommended limits.
