What makes the Samsung Galaxy Watch so good, apart from its performance, is the fact that it actually looks like a watch!


A real watch

The Galaxy watch gives a feeling of authenticity thanks to a round face, watch hand shadowing and even the sound of ticking. If you like the look of a real watch, with added smart technology, this is for you.


Customise your watch

What makes the Samsung Galaxy Watch such a standout device is the ability for you to customise it to suit your lifestyle. Bluetooth or standalone LTE models are available, as well as a variety of body sizes and watch faces.


A strapping good watch

As for straps, go with the silicone selection, which comes with the watch, or use one of your own. The Galaxy Watch is compatible with 20mm and 22mm straps, depending on the size you choose.


Always On

Why press a button or turn the bezel on when you don't need to? Simply set the S-AMOLED display so you can see the time at all hours.


More fitness focused

The Samsung Galaxy watch more than holds its own against similar fitness tracking devices, with extra sensors and a revamped Samsung Health app. It auto-detects six of 39 exercises, and pushes you along when you need to up the pace. Sleep, an important part of any health regime, is monitored by an improved tracker.


Staying connected

The Galaxy watch gives you the potential to take calls and messages on the go, and tune into your favourite sounds on the run.

samsung galaxy watch 46mm

I have had to reset the watch twice, it also freezes up every now & then. When buying this watch, I was under the impression it would work well with my IPhone, in hind sight I should have bought an apple watch.

The Galaxy Watch is Samsung's most fleshed-out smartwatch yet, and the company's fans won't find a better wearable. With that said, the new things Samsung added to its smartwatch formula -- Bixby and stress tracking especially -- fell short of their potential.

Samsung Galaxy Smartwatch 46mm - Silver with Black Band

Excellent watch, longest battery life by far. I went with this larger model because I wanted the extra battery life and it's worth it. Only downsides are the lack of MST for Samsung Pay and Bixby voice (mis)recognition.
