Hi all 👋 

I've taken delivery of my new GW⁷ today, and I have to say I love it so far. 

I've been using a GW⁴ for some time now and to be honest, I wasn't happy with it due to it's size (40mm) but continued with it and found it really useful when I started going to the gym. 

When I was the GW⁷ being announced I was torn between the two models but ultimately made my decision. I was then torn between the colour choice, a little disappointed there were no full black options but here we are, I decided on "Green."

I chose my delivery of 03/08. I knew I'd be off work and will be available for delivery. 

To my surprise, I got the notice that my GW⁷ has been dispatched and delivery was for yesterday but thankfully, I had today booked off so re-arranged. 

Turning on, pairing and setting the GW⁷ with my S²²U was a breeze. It took just a few minutes. In fact, I'm sure my GW⁴ took longer. 

Having set up the watch and flicking through the apps, menus etc. I've found the speed to be snappy with no lag or freezes. 

The design and colour of the watch looks and feels lovely. While it is "Green" it's a nice shade and is actually quite nice tbh. 

I'm going to be testing the GW⁷ a little more, and the real test will come on gym day (probably tomorrow, or the weekend.) 

I'm sure I'll add to this thread when I've had it for a few more days - but first impressions are very good so far. 

I just need to wait for my Buds³Pro now 🙂

Here are some photos I've taken of the unboxing and comparison between the GW⁴ and GW⁷

It looks nice, looking forward to getting mine in a few days, the order status has gone to "preparing to dispatch". I had the Watch 6 40mm too and also found it a bit too small for me but lovely and light to wear. I also have the 6 Classic and love it but a bit too bulky for me for the gym/exercise. How are you finding the battery life?

Oh nice, it won't be long till you get it then hopefully 😁

The battery life is pretty decent for me. Although I am comparing to my GW4 where i had to charge everyday or turn it off when not using it so I didn't need to charge as much.

I'm finding I'm getting about 2/3 days on a full charge but that is tracking pretty much everything in the health app. I hear that they're going to release an update soon so maybe it'll extend further?

Overall I'm really happy with the GW7 and glad I bought it

Wow that's really good, I found my Watch 6 40mm had about 1.5 days battery life for me on average, but mostly had heart rate checking on continuous. Yes I heard an update is coming too thats supposed to improve it further. That's impressive! 😁
