SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch 5 40mm Bluetooth Smartwatch w/Body, Health, Fitness and Sleep Tracker, Improved Battery, Sapphire Crystal Glass, Enhanced GPS Tracking, US Version, Gray (Renewed)

It takes a few days for downloads and updates so be patient however it will be worth the wait. Watch works great and looks great. Needed a quick you tube tutorial for the operating system quirks but once past that and the numerous updates you will be set!

After wearing the Galaxy 3 for the last 3 years, the 5 seem small. And, I thought the battery could be better. There seemed to be a big drop in battery when I was first adding apps. However, the battery lasted the evening...with a few hours to spare. I decided to keep this watch because I like the dressy appearance. All apps seem to work great.

I am in love w/my new watch! Bought refurbished at a nice price, so that's always a gamble, but the watch is pristine & working perfectly. 40mm fits my small wrist well. I bought mainly for the sleep monitor, bpm (to measure while I'm mowing my massive lawn), and the hard fall SOS feature. I love the texting feature & Dick Tracy-like calling feature! Love being able to change up watch faces and straps. The only disappointment is the fact that the blood pressure feature is not available in the US. I read that this is due to FDA restrictions, but doesn't make a lot of sense. All of the other health features have disclaimers to the effect that these readings vary in their accuracy and should not be relied on as 'end all, be all', so the same could've been said for the BP monitor, I say.

I recently purchased the SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch 5 (40mm Bluetooth Smartwatch), and overall, I’m quite impressed. Here are the things I love about it:Intuitive Setup: Getting started was straightforward, from installing apps to connecting and creating accounts. Everything synced seamlessly.Tracking: While my primary goal was to track physical activity, I was pleasantly surprised by its sleep monitoring feature. It not only tracks my sleep patterns but also offers tips to improve consistency, which is incredibly helpful.Personalization: It’s easy to change watch faces or swap out bands, making it adaptable to any style or situation.Automatic Activity Recognition: The watch impressively tracks my activities automatically, even when I forget to set up a workout. Whether I’m walking, rowing, following a workout video, or simply tidying up around the house, it picks up my movements accurately without manual input.Convenient Alarm Syncing: I also love how it syncs with my phone alarm. As autumn settles in here in Illinois, mornings can be dark, and alarms are easy to miss. The watch vibrates along with my phone alarm, making it harder to ignore and ensuring I get up on time.What Could Be Improved:Blood Pressure Tracking: While this isn’t Samsung’s fault, I wish the US allowed blood pressure monitoring on this device. I have another watch from Temu with this feature, and it’s incredibly useful for seeing trends and understanding how different events impact my stress levels. It encourages me to manage stress more effectively rather than compartmentalize it.Battery Life: The battery longevity is a bit disappointing. I primarily use the watch for fitness, sleep tracking, and basic functions like stress measurement. Given my moderate usage, I expected the battery to last longer between charges, but I find myself needing to recharge it at least daily - as frequently as my phone.Final Thoughts: Despite these minor drawbacks, the Galaxy Watch 5 is well worth the investment. It’s reliable, versatile, and convenient, and I believe it will last a long time. I would definitely buy it again.

Ordered 2 for the wife and I. It's a lot faster than expected, and the health features work better than the galaxy watch 4 (more accurate and faster readings). They were refurbished (i already knew), and only 1 came with a charger and cable (not a problem for me, I had several already). I would highly recommend changing the band immediately to something that's breathable. No complaints and very satisfied

Looks and works like new, mint condition! No issue with battery life (lasts 2 days). Could be better but I knew what to expect. Came with original charger and wristbands.
