How refreshing to hear a no-nonsense, giggle-free in-depth review. A pleasure, Ma’am.

[@wearablewhisperer]

I’m so glad you enjoyed my review, Thank you for the kind words 😊

[@Panoulhs_]

This is the most analyzed review I have ever seen! Everything is explained perfectly and by using metrics. Thank you!

[@amatesinrookoro8106]

I dont typically drop comments on videos but I loved this one. It was simple, straight to the point and covered everything that a regular person would need to know. You earned a like and subscription from me.

Thank you so much for all the work you put into this. I watch a lot of review videos and this is definitely the most in depth because you took the time to actually explain your day to day use and record measurements. This video was extremely helpful!!!

Of the dozen, or so videos on smartwatches I've been watching over the last several days, yours is the first I've encountered with meaningful metrics, and observations, that doesn't immediately go off into the weeds about extreme fitness applications of the device. I really appreciate it

Great Job and thank you......very on-point and you covered it all.....the Battery Life on the Galaxy 7 and the GPS seem like the 2 most improved features.

We just ordered two of them. I actually have a need for being able to monitor suspected sleep apnea as well as Afib and the EKg app. So this is a nobrainer for me. I have been enjoying a fitbit Sense, for a while and have been hoping for all these apps. It is like having a phone on the wrist. Review is Fantastic and right to the point

[@wearablewhisperer]

So glad my review helped you. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@dr.qaziabdulbasit1490]

Appreciation for such a nice review of this watch. I just got the 40mm Green as a gift from my wife and it barely lasts a day, whereas my old initial galaxy gear sport of 2018 lasted over 3 days out of the box. Design wise and aesthetically i am loving this watch. Its so light. But your review has helped me in identifying some aditional sensors that can be turned off when nit in use and i identified areas of tweaking to improve performance. A classy review, keep doing the good work.

[@dianaweber4352]

What an incredible review and analysis! Thank you

[@bionksie]

Great video. Do you have any more comments on the BIA sensor (for skeletal muscle, body fat etc) and blood pressure?

[@scottevans1662]

I love that your review is about data not Aesthetics. Thank you for taking the time to make this video it was very informative

[@CaptainFlips]

One of the most useful reviews out there, thank you for the information. I'm really glad to see that the bands have been further proved, I'll spring for a third one at some point. I actually already ordered my Galaxy Watch 7. It felt like it was time to upgrade from the original Galaxy Watch 😂

[@wearablewhisperer]

You’re welcome. And thank you for the positive feedback. Enjoy your new watch! 😊

[@gilberto_j]

This video was awesome! A super in depth review which was exactly what I was looking for. I greatly appreciate you including a section about charging speeds as I was very curious about that. I'm in the market to replace my Fitbit and with Black Friday around the corner I'm seriously considering the Galaxy watch 7 and this thoroughly convinced me! Thank you so much!

[@pasqualesalvatore7185]

Amazing review! Thank you!

[@ashrafozil3962]

Usually I don't reply or leave a comment to a KZbin video but I really enjoyed with your video and it is really useful for me . I like the way you introduced the video and how you hit the point. My only comment is the eye contact with the camera need to be reviewed by practicing or you can use some apps to correct the eyes looking place

[@christopherhartfield4541]

Thanks very helpful. I have had mine for 1 day love it learning all features still but ones l use.. spot on

[@OpinionatedHorsewoman]

Thanks for the info on the bands. I too get a rash from the plasticy bands on other smart watches (my Polar and my WyZe) and need alternatates but everyone glosses past the band reviews

[@willsherman3527]

Very good! I got one, and my impressions are that the accuracy is very good. Better than my Garmin 55 and 165. The build quality is outstanding like the previous. The processor is noticably crisper. Personally, I don't worry about battery life. I just charge it during breakfast... That's enough. You have to charge your phone anyway. 👍

When did samsung release the 'galaxy reviewer' 1'???🤔😂 great review, ma'am 👍 just ordered one

[@guy3409]

Does sensor light leak from the sides? Would this disturb you in a very dark room? My current HR watch (a Coros) flashes enough green light to disturb me at night - I haven't tried others so don't know if this is to be expected from all HR watches. Thanks

[@jarkkok6441]

Great review. Please do a GPS accuracy test on a map, i.e. how well the GPS tracks your physical location while e.g. walking. I have problems with mine, especially around buildings. So, I've enabled the "force full GNSS measurements" in developer options and now the accuracy is better. Before the accuracy was way worse than on my Watch 6.

[@wearablewhisperer]

Thank you for the positive feedback and suggestion. My 2 outdoor biking maps have looked perfect and my 2 walks have looked pretty good. (All were starting from where I live, so I didn’t want to share the maps…) I haven’t tested around tall buildings or trees yet, but I’ll try to do so in the future and report back. Thanks again 😊

[@jiribouda3191]

In my experience, GPS track looks very nice in easy terrain, however when I took GW7 to the city together with my Garmin FR 955 and Suunto Vertical, GPS track of GW7 was zig zag and distance 10 % off (much worse than Garmin and Suunto) . On bike rides, GPS was very good and distance spot on. Where can I find developer settings? Thanks

[@jarkkok6441]

@@jiribouda3191 Seems like my previous reply got lost somewhere, so here goes again: On the watch, go to Settings -> About watch -> Software information, look for Software version tab and keep tapping it several times until you see a prompt saying Developer options enabled. Go back where you started in the settings, and under the About watch you should now see the newly enabled Developer options. Under the developer options look for Force full GNSS measurements and toggle it on. Hope this helps.

[@jarkkok6441]

I've tried to reply with exact instructions a couple of times but every time my reply is deleted (by KZbin?). Anyways, something's not working so try googling. You should easily find the information.

Thank you for your excellent review. We appreciate your feedback and can you share us the indoor cycling accuracy.

[@richwlmsheebahaba]

I'm OLD. I've been looking for one of those, "I've fallen and can't get up!" services. The gw7 has 'Fall Detection' and gps and is connected to your phone (if using bt) or direct to phone provider (if using lte). If I fall or 'push a button, I should be able to have it call any number including an "I've fallen and cgu" service. Yes?

Thanks for this great review! Q. The Wireless power sharing feature is not working on the Galaxy Watch Ultra / Watch7. A. The Galaxy Watch Ultra and Watch7 have a new rear sensor design to improve sensor accuracy over previous models. As a result, it is possible to assess health-related data points that were not previously supported as well as take more reliable measurements during prolonged or specialized exercises. However, the new sensor design required changing the shape of the back glass. The alteration increased the distance between the internal wireless charging coil of your Watch and the wireless charger, so the Wireless power sharing feature available on the previous model is no longer supported.

[@neeleshboodhun4060]

can you please tell which watch 7 you used to measure the battery life,the 44mm or the 40mm version?

[@Liguritio]

Crsip review based on personal usage data. Nice. Looks like HR is fixed this time. Sleep should also be better with SW updates being more complex analysis with sensors just on the wrist.. The downside as noticed is HR being more accurate for intensive tasks than for simple walking. With improved hardware Samsung should focus on software and algorithms to improve the scores. Finally we can expect Samsung being at par with Apple. Hope!!

[@richards2072]

Thanks for your very interesting observations. My go-to channel for sleep score and health evaluations has been the Quantified Scientist where he measures the watch against scientific instruments, as in some cases you also do. Based on his preliminary report the Galaxy Watch 7's accuracy is only mediocre. He comments that the software seems unfinished. Sadly, in his comparisons Samsung still trails Apple. Interesting that you scored them much closer. I'm a S22U and Watch 5 user but I've given up on Samsung for sleep and health tracking and use an Oura ring instead. I'll probably get a 7 for some of the other features and maybe the sleep and health software will eventually improve. Glad to have found your channel and added a subscription.

I haven’t tested the 40mm battery life yet (wearing the ultra right now…). I do plan to test it next though, so… stay tuned 😊

[@chrisandrew_tv]

@wearablewhisperer Great, thank you. People are reporting issues with stairs climbed. My guess is that Altimeter will need to be calibrated and set to auto-refresh, and the watch synced with the weather app at the shortest possible increment to work reliably. There's there's the issue of what height constitutes a floor. This would be an interesting test since it hasn't currently got great coverage and is integral to core fitness tracker features.
