    This watch is great. I opted for the one without cell service and just Bluetooth connectivity and i am quite pleased. I can go atleast 48hrs without charging and even more depending on usage. I collects my steps for my employers medical incentive program. Easy to che k my calendar and stay up to date with current events

    This was a gift for my son. He is very happy with this watch. It looks nice and screen /face is a great size. No problem pairing with his LG. Can’t comment on durability or longevity because too new. But great battery life

    Coming from the Watch4, there really isn't a lot that is different between that model and this one - but that isn't a bad thing since I loved the 4. WearOS is further implemented here, and while the battery life isn't the best, it charges SUPER fast with the included USB-C charing puck. The display is a definite upgrade with its seriously tough and strong sapphire glass, a huge step up from the Gorilla Glass that previous models used, and it is great that sapphire is also on this standard model in addition to the more expensive Pro model. I also use Bixby as I love the Galaxy ecosystem, and I hope future generations will allow Bixby to access and use voice commands and dictation for Google Messages since that has been the default now in Galaxy phones over the native Samsung Messages app. Bixby here still requires use of the Samsung messages app... its not a huge deal, but it are small things like this that add up to a great user experience. Overall, a great watch with accurate health readings and step counting. Highly recommended!

    Overall Brilliant Smartwatch

    It is a brilliant watch, I love this watch where it automatically tracks, and the battery life is overall good, where I get it for like 36 hours. The call features are good where it makes our life easier when answering calls during driving or when our hands are busy. As it is Samsung product, it has Samsung flavor where we will not get the google standalone even though it has Wear OS. Replying to the messages is easier. It would have been better if have the feature to accept DUO notifications like we can do it on the Apple Watch, but we cannot do it in the current Wear OS where we were able to do in the older versions of the Wear OS as per the internet resources. Overall it is a brilliant smart watch with all the tracking of multiple sports mode, but there is lag in the google maps, and few google apps lack the stability which might improve overtime I guess. If people have not purchased it yet and have thoughts on purchasing it, I would suggest you to wait, i think the Samsung watch 6 is around.

    The Samsung - Galaxy Watch 5 is the perfect companion to my S21 Ultra. It charges much quicker than my Galaxy Watch 4 and the charge lasts much longer. I use it for everything it can be used for when my phone isn't necessary.

    Love this watch. Big screen makes it easy to use on the go and it's more accurate than previous versions. The best quality by far is the better battery life!

    This device convinced me to upgrade to the 5 Pro instead, only because of the larger battery life and more rugged construction. This time piece is very beautiful and feels great on the wrist with the included band. The amount of data and metrics that this device provides convinced me in only a few days that I was going to switch from the Fitbit device that was used for 3 years and not pick the updated Charge 6 that was also tried. I'm looking forward to seeing how the battery life holds up over time and I'm hopeful that because it's studying my use it would only get better and understand my routines.

    I love my new watch. I upgraded from the active watch 2 so there are so many new features on this watch. I can go at least 3 days without charging it. I am so glad i made this choice.

    Smart watches are something I have put off getting for several years now. I just didn't understand the appeal of them instead of grabbing your phone. When I decided to go the gym and workout more though I now see the value in smart watches greatly. Fitness tracking, sleep tracking, water intake, food calories if you like, etc are all so much easier than using the fingerprint scanner on your phone. I am converted and the Galaxy Watch 5 goes great with my Samsung Galaxy S9+. No disconnect issues at all. I love this!

    This watch so far has been great so far. Very light weight, to the point that forget that I m wearing it. The battery life has been decent for me. It works great with my Samsung phone. The only issue I have is that it does feel fragile ( not cheap ), fragile, so I would suggest some sort of case.

    Simple and functional watch. I use it at work, when I go for walks, or work out. Helps me keep track of my activity level, and water intake which is what I need since I often forget to drink more water. Love it, very easy to change straps, too. Honestly, battery life is pretty okay, lasts me 2 days if not connected to phone, though I had a galaxy watch 1 and the battery lasted me or almost a week if it's not connected to my phone. But not really complaining you just slap it to the magnetic charger and bam!

    This watch works really well for the most part. I have 2 Galaxy Watches, 1 with a nice metal band that I wear for work, and then this one with the rubber band which I wear around the house and to sleep. It's a very light watch and with the right band you barely notice it. My main challenge with the Galaxy Watch series is their heart monitor isn't always responsive. There are times when I expert energy and I want to check my heart rate and it's "hung up" at 85 (or so) then after fiddling with the watch to wake it up, a minute or so later it will say 130... but that's after I've had time to rest. I'd really like to see what it is initially when I wake the watch up.
