My wife previously had a Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2, which served her well and lasted over 4 years. However, due to age and wear, it finally was time to purchase a new watch for her. We had read the reviews on the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 which had just debuted, as well as the reviews of last year's Galaxy Watch 7 and we chose to go with the tried and true version of the 7. Our local Best Buy had that model with the cream color band which she loves! The purchase was easy, as it always is at Best Buy and the setup could not have been easier. Even though her old watch was not working anymore, the Samsung Galaxy Wear and Health apps that she had on both her old watch and her Galaxy S24 phone, had stored all of her previous information, so transferring that content to her new watch was seamless and quick. She likes the new technology, apps and features that are available on her new watch, which were not available on her older Galaxy Active 2! She also commented that the comfort of wearing her new watch with the band that it came with, makes her feel like shes not wearing anything. It's so comfortable! In short, an amazing upgrade for her and at a great price!

Wife loves it! She loves the look and very comfortable too! It linked up with her Samsung phone flawlessly and says it is so easy to use. She loves that it is more accurate counting her steps than her FitBit too.
If you have a Samsung phone, it’s the best way to go for a smartwatch. Only with the battery lasted longer.

Very easy to operate. There are many health features, one of the best is the help it offers for keeping up with healthy sleeping. This feature has been very insightful for myself as a very busy mom and professional people leader having more to do than time in the day. Also, there is a very bright flashlight feature that turns the face of the watch in to a light. It is sleek in design. Love it!

I got the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 (40mm, Cream) as a gift for my aunt, and she’s absolutely loving it! Great product for the price, especially with all the health tracking features. It’s sleek, easy to use, and it has useful gadgets. Perfect choice if you’re looking for a smartwatch that delivers great value.

I'm thrilled with my new Galaxy Watch 7! Its health monitoring features have become an invaluable part of my daily routine. The accurate heart rate tracking keeps me informed during workouts and rest periods, while the advanced sleep tracking provides insightful data to optimize my sleep patterns. The stress monitoring feature has been a lifesaver, helping me recognize and manage stress effectively.
The SpO2 measurement and blood pressure monitoring (where available) add an extra layer of health insights. The sleek design and comfortable fit make it a pleasure to wear all day long. This watch isn't just a tech accessory; it's a true health companion that empowers me to live a healthier life.

I'm just giving my review of my Watch that I just bought a few days ago and here is what I think about it.
I came to the conclusion of buying the Watch 7 for two reasons. The first is that it is one of the only watch brands that has support for LTE and that I would want to do simple things like reading messages or making payments on the watch itself in cases when I forgot to bring my phone or didn't really need to bring my phone and the Watch 7 does that really well.
What I like about the Watch 7 is the simplicity of it and having the things that I need. I like how it automatically starts to track my calories burned and the steps I make when I start walking, the data is pretty darn accurate for a lot of things and it has simple achievements that is a pro like getting 10000 steps for example.
Samsung Pay is a serious BOON to me but of course this only works if the retailers and merchants offer NFC credit card machines. Would have loved the option to use UPI app of sorts to fix this issue.
Call quality is pretty decent so I don't have too many problems there either.
What I don't like is that the watch lags a bit which is a serious bummer especially considering that this is Samsung and you would expect a smooth lag free use considering you're not going to use the watch a lot compared to the phone.
Another bummer is the battery life. I get that you can't expect the watch to last as long as your phone but the watch barely lasts a day for even the simplest things that I do on it and I even turn off the mobile data when I don't use it. Not to mention that wireless charging support is not there in this whatsoever so you're stuck with using that proprietary charger that it comes with and honestly I think I regret buying this watch over the Ultra JUST for that reason.
Because I otherwise would love to use the other features like sleep to track my sleep if it weren't for the terrible battery life. The other minor gripe I have is that certain apps have to make you use the Samsung phone inorder to get the most out of it which for setting up just for the LTE is stupid because I had to actually borrow my mom's S23 Ultra to set it up and Switch it back to my non-samsung phone.
And this is a bit of a nitpick but the straps have this button at the back which is pretty hard to take off and put back in atleast for me. I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem at hand.
The only other bummers I have is that you don't get amazon pay support in the watch but I suppose that's more on Amazon's problem and not really Samsung's fault on that.
But other than that, the watch is pretty solid overall as someone who is venturing into the Samsung watch series the first time. Hopefully the next watch or who knows maybe more updates on the Watch 7 can make me like the Samsung watches a bit more.

I upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 from the Galaxy Watch Active2, and the difference is immediately noticeable. Everything feels faster, smoother, and more responsive. Apps open quickly, scrolling is seamless, and the overall experience feels much more modern compared to the Active2.
The display is brighter and clearer, which makes a big difference when checking notifications, workouts, or the time throughout the day. Health and fitness tracking also feel more accurate and detailed, especially for workouts and sleep. I really appreciate the expanded health features and how well everything integrates with my Samsung phone.
Battery life has been solid for daily use, and charging is quick and easy. The 40mm size is perfect, and the cream color looks clean, sleek, and comfortable enough to wear all day — whether I’m working out or dressing it up a bit.
Overall, this was a great upgrade from the Active2. It feels like a big step forward in performance, features, and design, and I’m very happy with the purchase

My Fitbit Charge 6 finally died so I went with Galaxy Watch 7 which I always wanted. It seems compared to my Fitbit, that the step count is a lot less with the Galaxy. The battery life could be better. I wear my watch 24/7 so I charge it when I take a shower in the morning and again when I take a shower at night, sometimes I have to keep it on the charger another 10 minutes or so to get to 100%. Other than that, I am enjoying my watch. I really only use the workout part for the treadmill, eliptical at the gym. it was kinda pricey for me, but glad I pulled the trigger. Also, I have a small wrist, so it is a rather large face, but that seems to be "in" now...lol

I absolutely love the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 40mm! The size is perfect, sleek, lightweight, and very comfortable to wear all day, even while sleeping. The display is bright and crystal clear, and the watch itself looks modern and stylish without feeling bulky.
The performance is smooth and fast, and I really appreciate the health and fitness tracking features. From steps and workouts to heart rate and sleep tracking, everything is easy to access and accurate. Battery life has been solid, and syncing with my Samsung phone was quick and seamless.
Overall, this smartwatch delivers big performance in a compact design. If you’re looking for a stylish, reliable, and feature-packed smartwatch, this one is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

I love this smartwatch that I have had now for about six weeks. I have a small wrist, fair, thin skin and the watch band is comfortable and fits perfectly. It counts steps, activity time, and calories expended. The watch has helped motivate me to exercise much more, I now walk over more than the recommended 7,000 steps daily, The watch charges very quickly. It notifies me if an irregular heartbeat occurs. I then can take my EKG by a touch of a button. I must wear it to bed because of experiencing occasional atrial fibrillation which only happens at night. The watch charges while I am showering etc. Texts and phone calls are an added plus. The watch can do so much more that I have so far not utilized. I recommend this smartwatch.

This watch has great features such as step count, compass, weather etc. Multiple watch faces, ECG, heart rate etc. Band changes are easy and quick. The only thing that i wish was better, is battery life. However, I dont wear to bed so not so much a problem for me. Being able to answer and make calls is helpful and getting emails and texts is convenient. Also, I have a very small wrist and the 40mm works well.
