Changing this setting could dramatically improve your Galaxy Watch 7’s battery
  • Many users have reported issues with the battery life of the Galaxy Watch 7.
  • A Reddit user found that disabling the “Frequent Syncing” option in the Samsung Health app might help extend watch’s battery life.
  • This fix has also worked for older Galaxy Watch models.

Samsung’s recently launched Galaxy Watch 7 is impressive in a lot of ways. It boasts a clean, minimalistic design, is powered by Galaxy AI, and has a handy new Energy Score feature (which works similarly to Garmin’s Body Battery), to name a few. However, one area where the Galaxy Watch 7 has really struggled is its battery life. And this isn’t surprising, given the hardware limitations. After all, the 44mm version of the Galaxy Watch is equipped with a 425mAh battery, and the 40mm model has an even more modest 300mAh cell.

Expectedly, many users have reported issues with Galaxy Watch 7’s battery capacity, but it appears that a fix may be within reach. Reddit user wwjd4bbq shared that disabling a particular setting in the Samsung Health app could boost the battery life of the Galaxy Watch 7 substantially.
