So many people calling for battery life, but they buy watches that don't last a day (see you, Apple). Be smart, get Garmin.

    I purchased the Galaxy Frontier in 2018 as a "play with it and then send it back".
    The first couple days, NOT having to pull out my phone, to see who is texting, calling, emailing was enough for me to keep it. (I've worn a watch since the early 70's). Then I noticed it can track heart rate, sleeping etc. I started to notice at night, my heart rate would jump in the 90 per minute rate, WHILE SLEEPING. Next time I was at a routine doctor visit, I mentioned this to my doctor. I had a sleep study done, and have been on a CPAP ever since. Currently using the Galaxy Watch 4.
    Extended the battery life by turning off the tap to wake & rotate your wrist to wake.
    I keep bluetooth on, wifi off, heart rate check every 10 minutes. 18 hours a day use (turned off from around 5:30pm til bedtime around 10pm. 3 & 1/2 days battery life typical.
