[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy watch9 because it was a perfect pair with my new S26 ultra and has not disappointed! When life is always on the move, it makes things easier not having to pull my phone out everytime I hear a ding or feel my phone vibrate, im able to just look at my wrist quickly and keep things moving. Loaded with features, bright and responsive display, and works as its only phone if my phone dies or if left at home. 10/10 recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, what a wonderful watch. I'm glad I chose to upgrade from my old Galaxy Watch 7 to this newest version. And in addition to all the fun it was super easy to transfer all settings including the watch faces from old to new. Yeah! Happy customer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I pre booked the Galaxy watch 9. I've worn galaxy watches for a long time and now just very used to them. They integrate seamlessly with the Samsung phones and the health insights are something I rely on frequently. I chose the Watch 9 for the design and features it offers. Being hands free is the best thing when your watch is able to do almost all necessary functions like call, text and even voice commands.

I have had Fitbits since 2020. Thru didn't do much, but suited my needs. I felt the battery wasn't laying very long any more so I decided to move into a real watch.I am enjoying all the bells and whistles on this. The problem is fun comes with a cost. I feel the battery life is trash. I guess I should have looked into battery life a little more. I'm sad to have to reboot it every day. And it takes almost 2 hours to charge. I have turned off several of the features, but isn't that why you buy this product? So many things are battery hogs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this over the ultra because the ultra tends to be a bit more pricey for not all that relevant features. Trading up from my watch 7 was pretty worth it. The quality is pretty good, I am a bit sore about the change in strap type as I like to use custom straps and my old ones are pretty much useless now.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 as I have been using Galaxy Watches since Series 3, they never dissappoint, and this one was no exception. I absolutely love it's redesign, not only is it unique, but has that classic look as well. The balance they struck between the traditional and modern looks is kind of incredible. Also the operation is exceptionally smooth, the screen is brighter and the transition glides from one screen to the next. My expectation is this watch is the best digital watch out there, bar none.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Galaxy watches since the Gear and most recently had the Galaxy Watch 7 44mm and decided to upgrade to the Galaxy Watch 9 44mm. I'm honestly not very satisfied with it and feel the 7 was better for the following reasons: 1. In my opinion the Watch 7 had better wrist straps than the 9. 2. I'm not liking the squircle design as much and find the rounded design to be better. 3. The Watch 9 does not lay flat to charge on the the Samsung dual wireless charger. This is a miss on Samsung's part. Only way to use the dual charger is to fold the wrist straps in opposite direction and loop them, which is annoying. Otherwise it's not much different from than the 7 on how it functions. As for the battery after 12 hrs of usage its down to 65%. The responsive seems fine with no noticeable lag. I'm interested to see what improvement the Watch 10 will bring.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always owned a Samsung watch since they came out. I loved the very first one and I know I'll always have one. I am a lady and a smaller one being 5 foot tall so my wrists are pretty petite. I traded in my 7 for the 9 knowing the design has changed and it's going to look larger. I told myself I'd try it. I absolutely hate this larger, bulky watch face. Perhaps, this design is good for men but even my mother who has a 7 said she hates it. It's too masculine looking for me and just looks weird. It's like this huge watch face on my wrist and that's all I see. I prefer the round design or even just a square. This is like a person thought it would be a good idea to combine both. And it's not. Pick a shape Samsung! If you insist on continuing with this horrible shape there needs to be a smaller version, smaller than the 40mm, available for women. If you have the 7 ladies, keep it! I wish I'd have not traded mine in and forced myself to wear this hideous thing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im very health conscious and wanted the latest and greatest that Samsung had. I chose this watch because it had all the latest features. Well I have found that with all these new features you give up battery life. The watch has no battery life at ALL. I have to charge it daily. I will go to bed at 100% and wake up with it between 75 - 80% battery life. When i go to the battery settings its shows that the battery life is 1d 11h. I previously had the watch 7 and it easily lasted 4 days or 5 if i shut down the features. I guess with all the new features and the AI its just not worth it at this time. Im disappointed as i had such high hopes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this watch because I had a bigger battery. Man was I wrong about it lasting longer. The battery lasts at best 8 hours if you're using any of the health features and the AOD. I don't know if Samsung was oblivious to this or if they thought people had time to charge their watch two or three times a day, especially considering it takes about 2 hours to charge. That's 25% of the day just to get your watch running the other 75% of the day. What a joke.
