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 summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Love my Galaxy Watch5. The smartwatch integrates well with my Note 20 phone and it's great for notifications as well as answering a call when the phone is not right next to you. This is an upgrade to my earlier Samsung smart watch, and I like that I was able to get my history, settings, etc. easily installed.

    I bought this watch for my wife. She absolutely loves the design and color of the band. This is a short-term review, but so far so good. The watch has a good battery life. It is comfortable to wear even while sleeping as it comes with a sleep monitoring feature. I feel it has more accurate steps tracking than previous versions.

    After watching several You Tubes I got it set up for my wife. It was a Christmas present. She likes it just taking time to get use to it. Only thing I didn't like was the short cord for charging it. It did connect quickly to her Samsung A52 and she likes being able to know she has texts. Trying to get use to the health side of it.
