[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.

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 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 the galaxy watch 9 40 mm for my wife. The screen is much brighter and lasts significantly longer than her galaxy watch 7.

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.] 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.] Recently, I chose to upgrade from the watch 8 to the watch 9. Samsung continues to provide meaningful and useful upgrades to the Galaxy Watch series. The upgrade was seamless with the new watch running as well or better than it's predecessor. The watch is a go to all day long, monitoring my health indicators, alerting for incoming emails, texts, and messages, and providing other handy info... even radar data through an added app. I am quite happy with my newest watch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy watch 9 44mm for the size and I do not regret it. The graphics and performance are smooth and clear across all of the applications. I am able to use my watch to manage my day even without my phone. I am extremely happy with this upgrade and love the new shape!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Superb quality you expect from Samsung. Extremely light weight, and very comfortable to wear all day long. The only complain that I have, is that currently, I have the OnePlus 15 phone and a lot of the features available only to Galaxy phones, are not available to me right now. I truly wish I could find an app that can connect some of the features I'm missing right now. Nonetheless, I truly believe these are the best Watches in the market 👍🏻
