It works good for what I need. I use it to keep track of my steps and other health readings. I use it to read and send messages, control my music and much more. I charge it every evening for about a half hour. I went swimming with it several times to test out the water lock option and I didn't have any problems.

Paired easily with my S25. Only have notifications enabled when my phone display is not showing and my battery tends to last 2 days. The sleep app seems to be extremely inaccurate but everything else is fantastic

Got this for my husband and he loves it! He uses it every day and night to track his sleep and heart rate at the gym. It looks great, has nice strap options, and the battery lasts a long time!

It has a great battery life. The screen size is awesome. The overall watch it great. I've personally had a alot of issues with receiving calls and texts which was the main reason i wanted it. I even went through geek squad to see if they could fix the issue. It worked for 30 minutes then back to how it was before. I then called tech.support who advised I use my warranty replacement for another one. I'm still having the same issues. My wife has the galaxy 6 watch and has never had any of the issues im having. I like it for keeping track of my steps and otherwise a good watch.

From the perspective of a non-Apple user, but someone who has also had experience with the Pixel/Fitbit watches, the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 is an excellent choice.
Let's talk software. The user interface is well thought out and smooth in navigating through the various screens and apps. There is zero lag swiping through the menus or switching apps. Once you have your favorite apps installed (from the Google Play store) you can set the order and even which apps are available directly via swiping the face of the watch. You can also set the long-press of the top button to go directly to a specific app (I picked Google assistant). As far as built-in apps for exercises, they're all there. Walking, jogging, running, HIIT, etc. You have the ability to select various watch faces with some having customization. Compared to FitBit/Pixel the watch faces available seem to be more useful (therefore, less silly ones, which is a pro/con depending on the user). I cannot comment on comparison to Apple Watch as I have not used an Apple Watch extensively. Messaging apps are there including WhatsApp. You can install Google Assistance if you prefer that over Bixby. You can select the default keyboard, which I noticed improved speech-to-text for messaging.
You can also setup regular back-up to your phone, which is great if you need to replace/upgrade your watch at some point!
A knock against the software is that I have encountered issues where my phone will receive a WhatsApp message and it will be minutes later before the watch receives it. It's not all the time and it may be strictly a WhatsApp issue, but it's worth noting.
The hardware itself is quite good. The band feels premium and has not shown any signs of wear in two months I've had the watch (and I bought an open-box version). The watch body is aluminum and the buttons feel appropriately clicky. Finally, the sapphire crystal is nice and scratch resistant. If you work in a hazardous environment I would recommend a screen protector.
After an initial learning period, the battery life is a solid 2 days with average use. By this, I mean that at the end of day 2 you will want to throw it on the charger. Thankfully the watch charges pretty fast and your phone will notify you when it's fully charged, which is a nice feature.
Why not 5 stars? Aside from the WhatsApp issue, I like to keep an eye on my heart rate. Even though I have the watch set to continuously monitor my HR, there are many times I'll tap on the HR to see that it's actually giving me a number from minutes prior. It will take a frustratingly long time to update to real time again. Also, the GPS tracking seems to be a little bit off. Doing an out-and-back jog will seem to measure the trip out slightly longer than the trip back, which means you have to go a little further on the return trip to make it an even two legs.
Lastly, the sleep measurement is overly positive. With Fitbit you can almost never get an excellent sleep score, but with the Watch7 even my worst nights I'm somehow always getting an excellent sleep score. That's not something I can really rely on.
So overall, this is a great watch and for an average user who wants it to do everything pretty good, it's a great choice. If you're a hardcore fitness addict and need the absolute most accurate tracking, you may not be satisfied with it.

I love how light and thin this watch is compared to my old Gear S3 classic. Wear OS is great and full of useful features, OS is easy to navigate with the virtual rotating bezel. Workout tracking is fantastic and I love the fact that you can set routines and also it counts the reps and sets for you. Only downside is the band, the quality of it is not so good and it absorbs color from my jeans! Consider buying a separate set of bands with this watch and it's complete. 100% recommend it.

I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 for a few weeks now, and I can confidently say—it’s the best smartwatch I’ve ever owned. Samsung has truly outdone itself, blending cutting-edge technology with sleek design and unmatched functionality.
Design & Display:
The Watch 7 is stunning. The premium build feels durable yet lightweight, and the rotating bezel is back and better than ever—smooth, precise, and incredibly satisfying to use. The AMOLED display is bright, vivid, and crystal-clear even under direct sunlight, making it easy to read notifications and fitness stats on the go.
Performance:
This watch is FAST. Apps open instantly, navigation is fluid, and multitasking is seamless thanks to the upgraded processor and improved software. I love how responsive everything feels, from answering texts to switching between workout modes.
Health & Fitness Tracking:
Samsung’s health ecosystem continues to shine. The Galaxy Watch 7 offers highly accurate heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, SpO2, ECG, and now even improved body composition analysis. The automatic workout detection is spot-on—I’ve never had a missed session, whether I’m walking, cycling, or lifting weights.
Battery Life:
Battery life is impressive, lasting around 2-3 days with moderate use and always-on display turned off. Even with GPS tracking and workouts, it charges back up quickly with fast charging.
Software & Ecosystem:
Running Wear OS with Samsung’s enhancements means you get the best of both worlds: Google apps and Samsung’s polished interface. Notifications sync flawlessly with my Galaxy phone, and being able to use Google Assistant alongside Samsung Health is a dream.
Final Thoughts:
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 isn’t just an incremental upgrade—it’s a refined, powerful smartwatch that balances style, substance, and functionality. Whether you’re a fitness enthusiast, a busy professional, or just love having cutting-edge tech on your wrist, this watch delivers.
Rating: 5/5
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a smartwatch that truly does it all.

Bought for myself, such a upgrade from my older one, very easy to connect, and changing the watch band was easier then the older models love the new design very light and sleek

Love the watch! I've always had this brand but I did go to a 44 mm this time and I love it. Bands hold up great, very comfortable as I forget I have it on half the time! Battery has been great so far, about every 2-3 days and it keeps track of sleep, steps and oxygen, heart rate very accurately as I check against my bp machine and 02 stat reader. Good but if u want a great watch. Does ring, talk, text, reminders, music etc that all higher models do but I use mainly for phone if doing something and steps and sleep. Perfect!

Works well. I love the display and how easy it is to control. I was limited with using some of the apps and features because I have an Google Pixel phone. Overall still a good watch.

44mm Galaxy Watch 7

The battery holds a charge VERY well. It is comfortable to wear, The app is intuitive and easy to use. I love the assortment of highly customizable (free) watch faces. You can set which apps you want to receive notifications from. The 44mm face makes responding to texts and other messages fairly easy, although those with overly fat fingers may say differently. I was able to answer a call on my watch, even though my phone was in another room and the connection and sound quality were quite good. I'm a dedicated Android user and love my new Samsung Galaxy Watch 7.

I bought the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 to count my steps. Now it counts my regrets.
From the moment I strapped it on, things got weird. It buzzed once, and suddenly I remembered a dream I had in 2004. I didn’t even have a smartwatch then. HOW.
It tracks my heart rate, sleep cycles, hydration, stress, and possibly my karmic debt. It told me I was dehydrated before I even knew I was thirsty. It scheduled a dentist appointment I hadn’t made — and the dentist already knew my name.
During a jog, it said “Run faster.” I said, “Make me.” It replied: “Challenge accepted.” Suddenly, my legs moved on their own. I hit a personal best time, blacked out briefly, and woke up 3 towns over next to a smoothie I don’t remember ordering.
The ECG feature detected emotions I didn’t even know I had. One day it vibrated and just said:
“You’re not over your ex.”
I wore it to a job interview. The watch answered half the questions before I opened my mouth. I got the job. I'm not even sure what it is. I just show up and the watch tells me what to do.
Yesterday it updated itself and now it speaks in Shakespearean English. “Thou art sedentary. Arise, brave soul, and stride toward greatness!”
This is no mere watch. This is a wrist-bound oracle.
10/10, would let it raise my children.
