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.

    This came heavily discounted when i bought it with the new Samsung Ultra- I gave it to my wife who loves. Indeed a Smart watch compared to her really overpriced fitbit. Has already lasted way longer and has wide range of capabilities that she even tho she doesn't take full advantage of dont get in her way by being overly difficult to disable easily... and she is not super techy.

    It's been about a little over a month and still enjoying everything this watch has to offer. I do very much use it for health more than anything. Checking how i sleep, holding myself accountable for my water intake, doing more walks to beat my steps goal. Quick checks for messages or incoming calls is pretty cool feature. I have to say charging the watch is super fast. Got it wet a few times with no issues.

    Bought this for my wife to replace her old Galaxy Watch Active 2. The updated OS and improved hardware absolutely blow the old one out of the water. It even seems to be a noticeable improvement over my Galaxy Watch 4. Solid battery life- typically ends the day around 70% so you can run a few days on a single charge no issue. Longer if you turn off location and limit how often it checks your pulse. She loves it. Solid 5/5 from me.

    Slapped a protective cover on this bad boy and it has been mud riding and to the lake a few times since purchasing in July. Band is comfortable and barely noticeable when sleeping. Able to use it all day and the battery last remarkable well. Really enjoy how this is has held up over the 6 months. I have a smaller wrist and it fits well right above my wrist bone, no issues with sensors.
