First Thoughts on the Galaxy Watch 7

I took my time opening this one. I only have this because the deal when I bought the S25 was too good to pass. I didn’t need it, but I like it so far.

This is my first Android wearable. I’ve had Apple Watches going back to the AW 4 up to now with the Ultra (I typically upgrade every 2-3 years). This was a heavily discounted pickup with the Galaxy S25 Ultra purchase and was too good of a price to pass up even if I only use occasionally.

I will try to wear and compare it more thoroughly, but I'm not quite ready to let go of the Apple stuff yet. 

This purchase begs the question of whether I would like to use Android more. Or is it just because it's new right now? 

I am also interested in the classic model because I like the aesthetic of it. If there's any updated version this year I could see me looking to trade in for that one. Its even the type of watch I’d get to use without a smart phone, but I think that’s kind of crazy talk because a traditional watch that is in the same price range is likely a much more sound investment, will last longer and not need to be charged everyday.

Otherwise I think it has most of the same basic functions as the AW, with some slight differences to the health features.
