[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love this watch due to that it's main purpose is to keep progressing with new upcoming software updates for future reference and I really like the smooth, modern, yet very elegant body piece of this galaxy 9 model. Also, my favorite improved feature of this galaxy 9 watch is the battery performance which this has a much reduced charging time, including the super fast charge capability, I'm highly satisfied that it doesn't take too much time to charge up to 100% and that's a plus for me.

Overall it's a great smart watch. Especially when paired with a Galaxy phone. As long as you don't mind charging it everyday or two. Pros: Great screen display. Some apps work on phone and watch together. Can snooze phone alarms from watch. GPS picks up signal quick. Samsung Health metrics are nice- accuracy is mixed. Comfortable to wear all day. Locks when you take it off. Post workout metric summary is nice, gps run will show on a map. All the apps you could want available. Tap to pay works well. Cons: The battery is terrible out of the box. Wore it for 2 months with it not even making it through the day. After a forced reboot(not a restart) it seems to have fixed it and will now last 30-40hrs. The Samsung health fitness index metrics are not accurate, might be good for someone just getting into fitness, anyone already fit will see the errors. The strength metric is a complete guess, it has no way of knowing if you bench press 150lbs or 300lbs making it highly inaccurate. Same with the flexibility metric, it has no way of knowing your flexibility, just an inaccurate guess. GPS pace sensor is not instant, def has a lag but it's not to bad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade my watch7 to the new watch9 because I have loved my watch7 for 2 years. So far I have to say I miss my 7. The silver addition added around the watch face makes the watch look much bigger and is very ugly in my opinion. The battery is not great. I barely get one full day and I only use my watch to read text messages. My old galaxy watch was getting two and a half days. The 9 is lighter feeling. I love reading text messages on my watch so it is good at that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy this watch and all of its features. I transferred my setting from the Watch 7. However, this battery is not lasting as long as the 7. I am not sure why as it should be better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this watch and you should too. It has so many features that I probably will never be able to learn how to use them.

Excellent watch. Very reliably accurate on its health readings, and it syncs with the Samsung Health app flawlessly. Surprisingly long battery life with a crisp display.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the galaxy watch 9 40 mm for my wife. The screen is much brighter and lasts significantly longer than her galaxy watch 7.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you want a reliable phone or watch or tablet, then stick with Samsung. I choose Samsung for the win any day!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this gadget. I purchased the watch to monitor my heart rate as I have an extremely high heart rate. It helps keep me aware of what is happening so I know when to slow down and take a breather. I am also enjoying being able to talk through it when my phone isn't near to answer when I receive a call.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted to update my Ultra, so I traded it in for the Watch 9; I did not have it for 10 days, and I was unhappy with the battery life. To me, battery life is a big thing, and I wanted to start tracking my sleep with the new Watch 9, but that could not happen because, after a day at work, I would come home and the watch would be under 40%.
