Interesting review, congratulations! The improvement of the heart monitoring sensor seems to be great news. Consider that someone on XDA has been releasing versions of Samsung Health that unlock all the features, allowing it to be used on any smartphone, not necessarily Samsung. A question: assuming I deactivate AOD and leave only the sensor active for detecting abnormal heart rhythm or sleep apnea or abnormal glucose levels, how many days does the battery last?"
I thought Samsung said your android only needs the Samsung health app to work? Plus you can't shame Samsung without shaming Apple. Full watch function only with I phone.
I'm going to buy a pre-owned watch 5 pro ($250 trade-in credit) and trade it I'm + the $50 presale credit and student discount, it'll be $0. So I'll technically buy the GW7 for $100
@@efrenr81 hey, so when I did a trade in with Samsung on 2021, I got the new device first and a box to return my old device all in 1 package, with packing instructions for the old device. So no, you wait to get your new device first so you can transfer your stuff, pack up old device, and ship that out
thanks for your review. Is it possible to pair the smartwatch an external HRM (such as garmin/polar ones) to have the heart rate monitored by the external HRM displayed on the smartphone? (maybe something in the settings). Does watch 7 monitor also the VO2Max?
Well considering Samsung never had this issue why would you do it now. At least Apple were consistent from the start and because they make the OS and phone you can understand the fencing. Samsung runs on android. There's no need to put up a fence 7 years later.
@@GK-qc5ry even so, it is not completely barred off from other OS users. apple was sued for that type of monopoly earlier this year by the Justice Department in the US.
What do you mean "shame on you Samsung"? Those are features of Samsung Health and NOT the watch. Samsung health of course only works on Samsung phones 😀
Good review. However, about the comment about shamig Samsung for keeping some features excluvive to their phones. My comment and opinion is that all top tech companies love to keep certain features exclusive. We all know this I don't know why this keeps coming up on many reviews. I think is because people want to be able to keep whatever brand they still have and still be able to use fully all of the features of other brands for free. But lets be real, from the business stand point that is not how the world works. Tech companies would always prefer customers to stay all in with them for obvious reason (MONEY!!!). There is no incentive for you to buy their product if you can just use it with other brands of phones. Apple do it in all their products, same with Samsung and others. To me this comments makes no sence even bring it up. Tech companies across the board do it all the time.
It's anti competitive. Apple is facing increasing difficulty in the EU (rightly so). This single fact has just put me off buying the Galaxy Watch 7 today! I don't have a Samsung phone, nor would I buy one.
@@lakis1605 I 100% agree. There is no reason not to have it on the Watch 7. The hardware is basically the same. But they are limiting features because the Watch 7 sells for a lower price. This is something that camera manufacturers are notorious for doing. Using the exact same hardware in almost all their camera bodies, but trimming features because it sells at a lower price point. It's really shady economics.
Samsung missed the bus designing the same band attachments to its watch 7 models as the watch ultra. The current band attachments are outdated in watches 4, 5, 6, 7. If it is a technique to encourage people to buy Ultra at a higher price, it may not happen. They may have to price it closer to 7.
Agreed. The Ultra has a face design that is well, for a select audience (I think it's pretty ugly). The bands definitely appear to be much better than the standard one that came with my Watch 4, which had that massive gap issue where the band connected to the watch itself.
Bought one... immediately regretted it. Wont charge properly, overheats, and too many updates that don't actually improve performance. Don't waste your money.
I went to the store today to place a pre order, I checked it out, it is grey when you look at the first sight, but if you really really have a closer look you can see a greenish tint as well, take my word sir this color looks stunning on the hand, Just say no to other cream and silver color options
You are wrong about galaxy 6. It is much better then 4, and 5. I have them all. Also to really see battery performance you need to weare wath few days to let watch learn your usage habits. After few days battery will last longer then in first few days. Now on watvh 6 i get 2 full days on usage, while in first few days it lasted less then 1 day
How do you get that much battery life from the 6? I use mine for running a lot, with health, while listening to youtube music, with LTE, I get like 4-6 hrs from full charge. I love the watch my battery has died mid run a couple times though which kind of bothers me. I am still a fan of he product and will buy more in the future.
@michaelandreasen993 Indeed, as you itrolls would suggest, this is the most childish comment on TH-cam. Despite your ignorance about technology and merely pursuing the logo, it's important to note that Samsung manufactures Apple parts, a fact that all Apple users acknowledge. Of course, anyone who possesses the opportunity to increase their profits would do so if they were to spam Apple and begin discontinuing their products due to its removal of certain features. We wouldn't have to face the consequences without your intervention, given your self-proclaimed "bubble" and "green bubble" rhetoric. Thanks to you itrolls out there.
I still see OS lag and as of right now I don't see any indication of better battery life. Wonder if you can get 3 to 4 days of battery life when correctly optimized like with the watch6 classic?
The os lag is because it is pre release software the stable os is buttery smooth. Also you can't expect 4 days battery life on these things it just won't happen(unless you get an ultra)
@@Abdul-dw2rp I get three to four days of battery life with the watch6 classic as I have it optimized for battery life. Do the same with the watch seven with battery optimization it should get 3 to 4 days out of it. I'm pretty sure with the 7 Ultra you can get 5 days of battery life out of it just like you can with the watch5 when it's optimized for battery life. Now if you use any of the health features on these smartwatches, then of course your battery life is reduced to the typical 1 to 2 days.
Samsung ima odlične satove ali su im baterije teško sranje... bar do sada bile. Par dana ako izdrži to je odlično!!! Pa me zanima koliko sad na 7-ici traje baterija???
lol shamen om Samsung 🤣 the most ridiculous thing ive heard all day.. you think i can use an apple watch on a Galaxy phone? or any apple product on a non-apple phone.. ofc not
@@SilverLine84 I think they just completely fcked up at launch and will make it available very soon ;) It's not even available in 99% of the world yet.
@@SilverLine84 Yeah I wouldn't believe those samsung support guys, it's not your phone's fault.. They are so full of themselves that they haven't even checked :D
Please test buds connection quality while running. On my 4 the quality of the connection is locked to the right earbud and there's intermmitent connection drops on the left bud. I'd also love to see it with a different strap color since the green is polarizing to some.
Shame on Samsung that since the Watch 4 the are still the same bezels there. Apple has esge to egde screen. I'm waiting for the quantified scientist on youtube to shame this watch further with the atrocious sleep tracking and sensors in general. Multi billionaire samsung cannot have a decent watch.
Dont forget..with LTE all watches will consume battery faster. Because it is consistently searching for 4G signal. Better without..most people have phone's on them.

Great? It inherits the same major issues: worst battery (vs the rivals), overheating in the LTE version, removal of the digital rotation and the lack of physical nor a rotating ring/button; and finally it got uglier, instead of prettier. The only real upgrade is the more powerful chipset and more AI, as well as some extra health indicators.

So the display is smaller than the Watch 6? The 7 looks like it has bigger bezels.
Hi, you know the battery life? 24 48 72h??
Is this 40mm or 44mm?
Would be nice to know exactly how many hours you get out of the watch. Pretty big deal if it's 2 days or 4
This needed the SD W5+ chipset. Garmin, Huawei and others give better battery life.
Watch 6 classic is gem at this point. Getting mine over this
Watch 6 classic is garbage.
Stop the denial and cap. My 6 lags and this is supposed to be 370% faster.
best watch7 video on TH-cam ✌️😊🚀
Can you Change The Band (Strap) on Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and Wearing a watch belt 6
Excellent video.....thank you.
Not enough for me to upgrade unless it will check blood pressure and blood glucose I will not upgrade from the galaxy watch 5 pro
The watch need time to read the way you use it and then, you gonna have the real battery life.
Hi thanks for the video..Does it have the multi sport mode like the Galaxy Watch Ultra?
It should, since that's just a software thing, and the Ultra doesn't have any different software functionalities (other than the quick button).
No, that is exclusive to the Ultra. I shouldn't be, but that Price Gating for you.
