I've been contemplating getting a galaxy watch, but I was waiting for Samsung to get it right.

Consider a Garmin smart watch. I love mine and the battery lasts over 8 days even with an OLED display

I can actually get one as part of my company healthplan. Which model do you have? I was leaning towards the Venu 3 over the Forerunner.

I splurged and bought an Epix since I like the design and the OLED display but I've seen the venu 3 and it's really nice too.

It's been super trusty, the flashlight feature is absolutely amazing and I use it on a daily basis, it's brighter than my phone's flashlight too which is crazy.

No problem! I do a ton of research on these so if you have any questions feel free to ask

They're great hardware but the software is bad.
