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.

||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was my very first samsung watch. I love everything about it. So i cant give like great review but i had it for a year so i recommend you get a screen protector that protects the metal so it won't get scratches.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it as a step tracker and EKG measurement. Does both well. I especially like that it sends the EKG to my Samsung phone, where I can save it as a PDF to show my doctor. I haven't activated it to take calls, but it does show notifications of my phone activity. Also keeps time.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this watch! The battery last so much longer than the active 2 I just replaced. Just wish Nike and Samsung would come to some agreement so I could add the Nike app to my watch for these fitness challenges.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very disappointed with this watch and wish I would have bought another Garmin. I bought it because the specifications list ecg, BP and pulse oximetry. I was so disappointed that I cannot get the app to do ecg and BP because I don't have a Samsung phone. It didn't state in the specifications that I needed one to do it. It also only measures pulse ox at night or when you use the feature on the phone. I wanted continuous like my Garmin watch had. Also, the feature never works on my watch and tells me I am not doing it right even though I am doing exactly what I say.
