What I’m still figuring out: Battery life
The Galaxy Watch 5 has a 13% larger battery than its predecessor— 284 mAh compared to 247 mAh on the 40mm smartwatch, and 410 mAh compared to 361 mAh on the 44mm.
So far, the battery on the Watch 5 has been comparable to the Watch 4’s, though I also turn off location tracking, and I don’t use the Google Assistant on standby. The real test will be to see how much juice I get out of one charge after tracking a long hike and constantly pinging Google for smart home controls.
