Our review: Galaxy Watch 9 pros and cons

Read the full review

On a Samsung phone, the Watch 9 is comfortable and packed with health features, and the screen looks great outside. But the battery is the weak link, so only buy it if you're fine charging every day.

Thumbs up

  • Very comfortable, day and night
  • Bright screen that handles sunlight
  • Useful sleep scores when the battery lasts
  • GPS and heart rate in line with good watches
  • IP68 and 50m water resistance

Thumbs down

  • About a day of battery
  • Missed nights of sleep data
  • Key health features need a Samsung phone
  • Auto workout detection misses
  • Case scratches easily

Where it shines

  1. Health

    Health coaching built on Samsung Health's core health pillars.

  2. Fitness

    Cardio load and activity tracking guide your training.

  3. AI assistant

    Speak to Gemini on your wrist and get the answer right there, without reaching for your phone.
