  • Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 7 is on sale in its green Bluetooth version, pairing with Android 11 or later phones and adding Galaxy AI features such as Energy Score and Wellness Tips.
  • Health tracking is the main draw: the watch measures heart rate, blood oxygen, body composition, stress, sleep stages and AGEs, a skin-based metric linked to long-term metabolic health.
  • A 1.5-inch AMOLED display reaches 2,000 nits for outdoor visibility, while the 44mm aluminum case uses sapphire crystal and includes two physical buttons plus bezel navigation.
  • Battery life runs about 40 hours with the always-on display off, or 30 hours with it on, and fast charging brings it close to full in roughly 30 minutes.
  • Running Wear OS 5 with Samsung’s One UI 6 Watch, the device also supports Google Wallet, Samsung Pay and offline music storage, positioning it as a feature-rich Android smartwatch.
