Your Galaxy Watch5 and the Galaxy Watch4 models come with their own power saving mode.

If you only need it for half a day...

Examplebob27 . 6 months ago

Then it might be fine for you. The battery life is woeful. The watch itself was pretty annoying with all of the goal alerts you can't shut off. I thought I could get used to it, and I liked the looks, so I held out too long to return it, and now it is in the trash..

Jrome . 1 year ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

I bought the watch 5 about 9 days ago. I honestly have no complaints. The battery life is decent I charge me watch about every 22 to 36 hours just depends on what apps I use. The only thing I want to change is the band and really it's not that big of a deal. Overall I'm pleased with it. Hope this helps anyone wanting to buy it.

KemH . 1 year ago

We returned watch. Some features did not work as expected. Battery life does not long unless you turn most features off.
