Galaxy Watch 7 (40mm)

Does anyone have experience with this specific watch and could they let me know if it was a good experience and if the watch is worth purchasing as a 15 year old looking for their first smart watch for everyday use?

It is a good watch - you could also consider the Galaxy Fit3 smart watch as it's significantly cheaper (£70 RRP but can be found on Amazon for around £42) does lots of the main fitness tracking, notifications etc

My 12 year old has one and will be getting one for my other son too. I'd be concerned about a teen breaking, losing or having a more expensive watch stolen....

But it's a good watch!

Hi there 👋
I have 44mm one, and so far no complaints apart from few things sometimes sleep tracking and fitness tracking is hit or miss and I'm still not convinced enough let's say go swimming with the watch on or jump in the shower with watch on it does say its water resistant but I'm still skeptical about that part as I take care of my devices and leave as far from water as possible 😁

Sometimes find that inaccuracy in tracking is related due to watch being too tight or too lose on my wrist so it moves from perfect spot and stops properly tracking but I guess it's my fault, apart from that does everything you would want smart watch to do, beautiful screen, lots of features, great battery life if im wearing it it lasts around 1.5-2 days.

Now i have to agree with @GusB as it's for 15 year old there's other cheaper alternatives like Fit3 whitch won't break a bank and does most of the things as watch 7, but if you're budget allows it then yes it's a perfect watch. Well at least from my personal experience.

Thank you so much!! I'll consider both. Especially since you've mentioned that the Fit3 is cheaper and has good fitness features!

Thank you so much, this has definately helped me make a decision on buying one!
