@@ChigzTech Wondering what was in the intro. You shouldn't - in my opinion - succumb to opinions of others so easily. We're (mostly) Samsung fans and we can take genuine critique. And if we cannot, do it anyway. Stay genuine!
@ChigzTech a review is a review. As a consumer I prefer hard facts, not touchy Feely walking on egg shells reviews. The people that cried about your intro are the problem with this country. They want speech controlled, for their hurt feelings....
No smartwatch brand has ever claimed medical grade accuracy. For some-one with heart trouble, you really need to get an oximeter with medical grade accuracy. You cannot rely on ANY smartwatch to be honest. But if you insist on doing this, I recommend Apple Watch or Galaxy Watch in terms of accuracy.
The Best UA-cam Review for the Samsung Watch 7 Honest opinion. Galaxy Watch7 is a well-rounded smartwatch with a sleek design, vibrant AMOLED display, and comprehensive health and fitness tracking features. Its performance is smooth, powered by the Exynos 1000 chipset, and it integrates seamlessly with the Samsung ecosystem. While its battery life is decent, lasting 1.5 to 2 days with moderate use, it may require more frequent charging with intensive use. This is a fantastic review of the Galaxy Watch7. Your honest, fair, and accurate assessment, along with the detailed comparison to the Galaxy Watch Ultra, was incredibly helpful. Your thorough analysis of the design, performance, health tracking features, and battery life provided valuable insights that will surely assist many viewers in making an informed decision. Keep up the excellent work
Exynos 1000. And you called this a good fitness function test? Thirty seconds with a medical pulse oximeter without any fitness activity? Really, the best review?
1.5 to 2 days??? Which watch did you test??? I can't get more than 12 HOURS after full reset and stock settings with Wifi DISABLED. Many Watch 7 users has the same issue.
If you have WiFi enabled it will already only actually connect to a WiFi network when needed, that is when downloading things. If you're only receiving some WhatsApp messages, the Bluetooth connection to your phone will carry that data. If you start downloading apps from the Play Store or are perhaps loading a video that someone sent you, it will automatically switch to WiFi to achieve higher speeds. In daily use I don't think anyone truly needs WiFi to be enabled at all, but since it only connects when needed, and otherwise doesn't do anything, I still leave it enabled for those few times every now and then when I update apps for example. It (might) also speed up backups, not sure about that though.
Haven't comment in a long time since you started but every time I want to upgrade my watch I come to you glad you still add it and wow you have grown congrats man.
Hi, I want to buy this watch for my mom to primarily monitor her SpO2 level and her sleep apnea. Can you confirm if these two features can be tracked automatically at all times? I would really appreciate it if you can let me know. Thanks.
I'm actually trading in my Watch 6 Classic for the Watch 7 44mm. I know I'm the minority but I really don't like the rotating bezel. I never used it. I guess i'm just used to swiping. Plus the bezel sits a little high making the watch look like a little stadium ....lol. I love how the 7 looks, and with the upgraded sensors it was a no brainer for me.
I went from a GW4 to GW7 so I didn't even know what people were talking about until I went to Best Buy and saw it. It's not a big deal for me as well and I don't mind swiping lol.
You mentioned the fall detection but does it work? On previous versions it was worthless. Ref the blood pressure, does it keep a history so I can show my doctor?
If I don’t have the LTE model, can I still receive notifications on the watch like WhatsApp, emails etc while only on WiFi or Bluetooth? This will be my first smart watch.
That's what I upgraded from. I was getting maybe 12-18h battery, so it was time to switch. I ended up getting the 7 Ultra and get about 48h battery and couldn't be happier. The improvements from the 4 are worth it IMO.
I have both: Advantages: Sapphire screen instead of Gorilla Glass, more responsive (due to CPU and RAM), lighter, more advanced sensors. Disadvantage: You lose the rotating bezel, this is really all you can miss. The 4 Classic is still a beautiful and perfectly fine watch, though.
The only difference from gw4 is that useless body temperature sensor. Everything else is the same. Better screen of course, but I can't say gw4 work slowly. May be I missed what the new sensor can do, but I don't see any new features coming from the new hardware. I would not upgrade. I upgraded from gw4 to gw5 pro because it's now 110 usd and battery life is amazing, and there's no difference with gw7.
Excellent review! I couldn't make my mind up on a new smartwatch but the coverage on this review is fab! As a longtime user of the Galaxy S Series; it's a no brainer! TY!
I've had my 40mm watch 7 Bluetooth version for a week now and the battery has not gotten any better. If I have Bluetooth connected I lose 10% per hour.. once I disconnect from Bluetooth the battery will last forever. But that defeats the point of a smartwatch for me as I mostly use it for notifications.. was going to return it and get another one and see if it has the same issue. Anyone else in this boat?
Good day, can you please provide some clarification in regards to the features if i purchase this watch in Belgium or South Africa. I get info on sites that this watch comes with Sapphire glass in Belgium, but here in SA, it comes with a Gorilla glass. Thank you.
I have the watch7 US version and step tracking is terrible. Sometimes it overcounts and lets say I take a 100 steps, it does not even register the watch at times. Have you faced the same issue?
Not really worth the upgrade, your not missing much and some of the new features are coming to GW6 via firmware update. I would wait for series 8 before upgrading.
I’m glad I saw this video, I was initially torn between which watch to get between the 7 and the Ultra and now I’m pretty certain I’m going with the Watch 7 44mm. Do you use AOD on yours? My main concern is how the battery life is with AOD turned on as I use that a lot. With medium use if it can get me a day and a half I’m happy.
I ordered the 7 44 mm variant. I'm currently training for the NYC Marathon and decided to upgrade from my watch 6. Battery has been suspect. I have to charge it to make it through training days, which include 10-13 mile run and between 90 -120 minutes the gps tracker. Battery frequently goes down to under 50%. Hopefully, it'll improve as the watch learns my habits. Great content.I appreciate such a thorough review and, as a result, feel more confident in my decision to skip the "Ultra."
@@Vatsal-lx2ko The battery life has improved significantly. I did a half marathon last Saturday. It took 2:01 the battery only drained from 100% to 72%. I've read that the watch "learns" your habits and adjusts the battery accordingly, kinda like phones. The GPS and heart rate are much better as well. The watch accurately recorded my distance, and the heart rate monitor voice commands let me know which zone I was in so I could determine whether to push harder or ease up. I'm pleased with the 7 and don't regret my decision to skip the Ultra. I find the 7 more versatile. It looks as nice with a suit as it does with a tank top, while the Ultra seems to post-apocalyptic IMO.
@@Vatsal-lx2ko I bought the LTE version but haven't activated it. It's about $20/month and I don't ever really do anything without my phone so I couldn't justify the extra expense
I bought this today thanks to this review. Checked out the Series 6 Classic but the bezel did'nt do enough for me to warrant getting that jnstead. It smy first smart watch by the way so i did not own any previous versions or smart watches. Best and most comprehensive detailed and honest review i have come across on UA-cam by the way. Good job Chigz!
Regarding calls, if you're using Bluetooth headphones connected to your phone, can you answer the call by pressing button on the watch but the audio / mic of the headset will do its thing? Or if you answer incoming call on watch while headset is connected to your phone will the audio of the call come out of the watch itself?
Great review! However I wish reviewers (and all of them do this) would test the voice to text option. Thing is, they all have data or wifi on when they test it and of course it works. But my thing is if the device can do it without any network connection. I know the GW7 cannot do voice to text without a network connection. I don't have data, so this is very important for me, considering my phone does do voice to text (its an older S8) and it still can do it yet samsung has not made the watch do it. Even if it could do the processing via the Samsung phone then it would be great. I see this on every review, but it's obviously not an in-depth review.
I have the Galaxy watch 5 and I don't get much more than 24 hours on that one. I charge mine every night before going to bed so I can keep track of my O2 during the night. I'm glad I didn't buy the Ultra as I would be mad for paying more and not getting more. Looks great and I don't need that rotating dial as the 5 was my first Samsung watch.
Excellent in-depth review. Probably wouldn't bother with the gestures either. Ordered the Galaxy Watch 7 after watching this review, thank you. Ultra = SUPER OVER-PRICED!
Thank you for your honest review and the walkthrough! I’d been searching for a review like this but I couldn’t seem to find one. Now I can decide more easily if I should buy it or not.
Great review, yes the 7 is the go i wear a 3 atm , need an update. Can't justify the price for the Ultra. Can't be any worse in battery to the 3 , big step up .. Cheers.
Chigzs, if that truly is your nickname, I subscribed for the brutally honest foul language ladden opinions. I can relate to not having my leg pissed on and told it's raining. A heart would be nice , but an ice cream cone even better for its hot n muggy today. I traded in a $69 GW4 to get the GW7 for $79. I can't let the bezel go. It's the only thing I really enjoy in a watch. ( info is info , but bezel is boss!)
Okay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the kislux book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations
Love the honest review but the Ultra titanium is much stronger than Aluminum. Even though it's much bigger it weighs similar to the galaxy 6 classic which shows they went aggressive with the titanium. It’s to my understanding the speaker and mics are better on the Ultra, the screen is 3k nits rather than 2k. Ultra has more battery and in several test it has shown to be more reliable in GPS and heart sensor. Wish they would of made the regular 7 of titanium. Aluminum makes it look cheap.
Woah this watch is really sooo coollll!!!! Animated clocks, folders, temperature, everything is just wow!!!! Thanq for discovering all the new things and telling the secrets to us I really wonder how much time u sped finding these things u r soo cool!!! And kind too dude since u reply to the comments after being so famous!!! Lots of heartsss to you btw did u see new one UI 6 emojis?
I've got one question and that is. Will it be ok when i go take the watch under the water will it effect the watch. Like it will start stopping the sport and like that. I am asking only because I had some watch that you cannot take under the water because the water was effecting them and stopping the sport. (sorry for my english I'm not from country that has english as main language.
Depends on how you wanna use it. For example I like the lte version since I often wanna go running with my hearbuds connected to the watch while using spotify with data. If you want to leave your phone home and go out with only your watch it's really usefull. If you plan to always take your phone with you anyway go with the bluetooth version and you'll save money and battery life
i have a poco x5 phone and i want to buy a smartwatch. Im between galaxy watch 6 classic and galaxy watch 7. Which watch is better for a non samsung user and which watch is better? Thanks
Tried the GW4 back in 2021 and I was really impressed by the ui but the battery was not that good. Not until I tried Venu 2 and Watch Fit (Gen 1), only then did i realize that GW4's batt life was sh*t. I still remember having to charge the watch every 10 to 12 hours.
Hi, I 'm looking to upgrade from my GW4 which is totally unsuitable for my needs. My main question is: how does it perform under hours of training (jogging, cycling, etc in hot weather conditions? The GW4 would simply overheat and switch off, making it useless. Anyone? thx
I traded in my GW4 for GW7 and I just got it delivered yesterday so I'm looking forward to seeing how it is. I'm going to say looking at reviews and reactions, it's an upgrade for sure and even some are saying better than 6 itself
Yes pixel Watch 3 is rubbish, it’s too thick. Heavy and let down by the Fitbit software. Don’t buy pixel’s smartwatches until they can change the OS. Major let down. GW7 is the best.
Fantastic review ❤👍👍👍 2 qns 1. Is ECG feature available in India? 2. I thgt Apple watch is better in ECH and Fall Detection & Alert.... I think Fall Detection is not available in Watch 7 Thank you
Have you noticed any issue with automatic workouts not registering in the Samsung Health app? It may just be my device, but I have a Galaxy Fit3 (and a Samsung phone) and if I have auto detect workouts on, it registers them on the watch, but not on the phone.
i'd be careful of the 6. Had to take it back. 85-90 bpm while on treadmill and 132 bpm on the couch. Checked loose, mid, and very tight. horrible. Others were getting similar results. Will check some other reviews.
Does anyone know how compatible Sony phones are with Samsung watches? I'm considering buying this watch, and i have an Sony Xperia 1 IV. Am i gonna run into any major problems? or many smaller problems?
Thats funny regarding swimming. My watch 6 just dies after 1 year and 1 month (when warranty has expired) because of water damage, all I did it is sometimes occasionally swam in the ocean, not deep, for a little time and washed dishes. My old galaxy watch 4 are still alive for years and working great after a lot of swimming during years. The only issue was the battery life dramatically reduced. Also my husbands galaxy 4 classic battery is still way better than it was on this watch 6.
Is it worth it going from GW6 to GW7? Or should I rather wait for the GW8 or even 9? Maybe it's just since the watch is 60 Hz and I'm used to 120/165 screens, but my GW6 feels so laggy.
Excellent review. I have been thinking of buying a galaxy watch for the past 6 months. I was waiting for watch 7 instead of going for the past versions. I don't own a samsung phone but I'm planning to buy s25 next year after the launch which will probably happen on February. Now after watching ur video I'm slightly confused whether to buy this watch or not. Is it ok to buy the watch now and buy a samsung phone after 6 months of time. Please let me know ur thoughts!!!
Always on screen will drain the hell out of these watches. I've been holding onto my Galaxy Watch 4 forever and just bought a 7 today. Battery life being a big reason behind finally switching. I'm tired of only getting like 12 hours out of my 4 before I have to charge it again.
Sorry Chigz I did get the ultra only because Tmobile had a promo going on, and I got it on contract for half the price. I love the regular 7 though. Just couldn’t pass up the deal. I had to get back to Samsung. 😊
After careful consideration, I have decided to cut the harsh intro. The people have spoken and I apologise if I offended anyone. Thank you for the love and support. ❤
I wish I heard it. Taking away the bezel and the "scam" of the ultra gets too me too.

It's business. People will be paying $300 more for the "tough" rugged look of the Ultra. Just like people buy the Mercedes G-Class for 150k+

If we compare model classic 6 and model 7, which one is faster and has fewer lags?
7 is faster
7 due to the new chipset.

Is there a 5g version that can stand alone from the phone?
Love the honest review but the Ultra titanium is much stronger than Aluminum. Even though it's much bigger it weighs similar to the galaxy 6 classic which shows they went aggressive with the titanium. It’s to my understanding the speaker and mics are better on the Ultra, the screen is 3k nits rather than 2k. Ultra has more battery and in several test it has shown to be more reliable in GPS and heart sensor. Wish they would of made the regular 7 of titanium. Aluminum makes it look cheap.
Woah this watch is really sooo coollll!!!! Animated clocks, folders, temperature, everything is just wow!!!! Thanq for discovering all the new things and telling the secrets to us I really wonder how much time u sped finding these things u r soo cool!!! And kind too dude since u reply to the comments after being so famous!!! Lots of heartsss to you btw did u see new one UI 6 emojis?
Thanks for watching ❤️
@@ChigzTech welcome i appreciate you keep it up
I've got one question and that is. Will it be ok when i go take the watch under the water will it effect the watch. Like it will start stopping the sport and like that. I am asking only because I had some watch that you cannot take under the water because the water was effecting them and stopping the sport. (sorry for my english I'm not from country that has english as main language.
Would it work for someone whodoes dirty manual work ?
Does it support Google Family Link?
does this watch count flights of stairs correctly? I have the version 1 and 3 both of them cannnot count flights of stairs properly.
Is the LTE worth it or can you do fine with the BT version (can you download maos in the BT version?)
Depends on how you wanna use it. For example I like the lte version since I often wanna go running with my hearbuds connected to the watch while using spotify with data. If you want to leave your phone home and go out with only your watch it's really usefull. If you plan to always take your phone with you anyway go with the bluetooth version and you'll save money and battery life
i have a poco x5 phone and i want to buy a smartwatch. Im between galaxy watch 6 classic and galaxy watch 7. Which watch is better for a non samsung user and which watch is better?
Thanks
Can it be use with iPhone 📲
Tried the GW4 back in 2021 and I was really impressed by the ui but the battery was not that good. Not until I tried Venu 2 and Watch Fit (Gen 1), only then did i realize that GW4's batt life was sh*t. I still remember having to charge the watch every 10 to 12 hours.
Excellent chart of ranking for comparison
Best review for the watch 7! Subscribed!
Hi, I 'm looking to upgrade from my GW4 which is totally unsuitable for my needs. My main question is: how does it perform under hours of training (jogging, cycling, etc in hot weather conditions? The GW4 would simply overheat and switch off, making it useless. Anyone? thx
The watch 5 is fantastic and I imagine this to be better. Just ordered a 7 today and traded in my watch 5.
I traded in my GW4 for GW7 and I just got it delivered yesterday so I'm looking forward to seeing how it is. I'm going to say looking at reviews and reactions, it's an upgrade for sure and even some are saying better than 6 itself
Good video! Can you compare this to the new pixel watch 3?
Yes pixel Watch 3 is rubbish, it’s too thick. Heavy and let down by the Fitbit software. Don’t buy pixel’s smartwatches until they can change the OS. Major let down. GW7 is the best.
So i cant measure bp or make an ecg without a samsung phone? And whenni thought i found a suitable watch for me
Fantastic review ❤👍👍👍
2 qns
1. Is ECG feature available in India?
2. I thgt Apple watch is better in ECH and Fall Detection & Alert....
I think Fall Detection is not available in Watch 7
Thank you
Awesome, thorough review! I'm sold, thanks Chigz
Have you noticed any issue with automatic workouts not registering in the Samsung Health app? It may just be my device, but I have a Galaxy Fit3 (and a Samsung phone) and if I have auto detect workouts on, it registers them on the watch, but not on the phone.
Sleep Apnea Feature?? It doesn't work in UK and Europe ?
Enyoyed your review. I just ordered the watch for my right hand as i am loyal to samsung while i have the garmin fr965 on my left.
Difference bw 6classic and 7....plz guide..thinking of buying one of them
i'd be careful of the 6. Had to take it back. 85-90 bpm while on treadmill and 132 bpm on the couch. Checked loose, mid, and very tight. horrible. Others were getting similar results. Will check some other reviews.
How accurate these readings are of blood pressure and sugar and ecg are questioned?😅
Does anyone know how compatible Sony phones are with Samsung watches?
I'm considering buying this watch, and i have an Sony Xperia 1 IV. Am i gonna run into any major problems? or many smaller problems?
how to get notification of whats apps call ? my GW7 (44mm) not receiving my call when i test to call paired phone
is it only can do if my phone is samsung ?
Thats funny regarding swimming. My watch 6 just dies after 1 year and 1 month (when warranty has expired) because of water damage, all I did it is sometimes occasionally swam in the ocean, not deep, for a little time and washed dishes. My old galaxy watch 4 are still alive for years and working great after a lot of swimming during years. The only issue was the battery life dramatically reduced.
Also my husbands galaxy 4 classic battery is still way better than it was on this watch 6.
Is it worth it going from GW6 to GW7? Or should I rather wait for the GW8 or even 9?
Maybe it's just since the watch is 60 Hz and I'm used to 120/165 screens, but my GW6 feels so laggy.
i think its only because your eyes are used to 120/165 hz. checked the watch and it is pretty smooth in my opinion
Excellent review. I have been thinking of buying a galaxy watch for the past 6 months. I was waiting for watch 7 instead of going for the past versions. I don't own a samsung phone but I'm planning to buy s25 next year after the launch which will probably happen on February. Now after watching ur video I'm slightly confused whether to buy this watch or not. Is it ok to buy the watch now and buy a samsung phone after 6 months of time. Please let me know ur thoughts!!!
Always on screen will drain the hell out of these watches. I've been holding onto my Galaxy Watch 4 forever and just bought a 7 today. Battery life being a big reason behind finally switching. I'm tired of only getting like 12 hours out of my 4 before I have to charge it again.
What’s that soundtrack you used when showcasing the watch faces?
Love the honesty and delivery!
Give me some tips for better battery life on this device.
Sorry Chigz I did get the ultra only because Tmobile had a promo going on, and I got it on contract for half the price. I love the regular 7 though. Just couldn’t pass up the deal. I had to get back to Samsung. 😊
The ultra is a seriously beautiful watch. ❤
Wifi of and notifications on? Why? That can also happen????
