Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro 45mm R920N GPS (Renewed)

Got this renewed and was a little skeptical at first. Band that came with it showed a small amount of wear, but other than that it runs flawlessly. Great battery life and the watch face/body looks new. Just grab a UB Pro band as well and a screen protector and youre good to go!

So I ended up buying this watch about a week before the 7 series dropped. I haven't kept up on watches, had the original Samsung watch, loved the looks, but was worthless to me because I couldn't even make it through a work day without charging. My fitbit died, so I went looking, saw reviews talking about battery and saw the price and went for it. Then the 7 came out and I felt like I made a mistake. I certainly did not. This thing is a beast on the battery. I get a ton of notifications, reply to them, play around on it, and easily get more than 2 days of use. I typically just charge it in the mornings as I get ready for work. Yes, I wear it as I sleep for tracking. The 'renewed' or whatever this is, is great. Not a scratch on it, looks absolutely brand new. The charger they send with sucks. Sucks really bad. Order yourself an OEM charger and toss the one that comes with it right away, or else you'll be charging an hour a day... With the OEM you do not need to do that. It's big, it's light on the wrist with the titanium, I'm extremely rough on watches, each Fitbit I owned was scratched up within days, after a couple of weeks, this still doesn't have a mark on it. Was concerned about buying renewed, but was extremely surprised and happy about the condition of my watch.

I bought this watch because my over $200 Fitbit Sense 2 stopped working after a year. I have friends who have earlier model Samsung watches that have been wearing them for years with no issues. The watch arrived on time, and in good condition. There were minor scratches on the bezel, but that's no big deal for saving over $200 versus a new Samsung watch. The screen and the band looked brand new and it functions properly. I would highly recommend this purchase.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is a powerful smartwatch with Wear OS 4 operating system that turns it into an Android phone on your wrist. If you want to know its characteristics, I encourage you to search for them on the internet. Here I will mention information that I consider very important: 1) Since I bought this 5 Pro on Amazon Refurbished, its physical condition was not optimal. This unit came to me with a new strap and charger similar to the originals but they are Chinese copies. Its quality is acceptable. The smartwatch was purchased under the name "Refurbished - Excellent" but I consider that it should have been classified as "Refurbished - Acceptable" since the Titanium casing had several marks (scratches and nicks) quite visible (for this reason I should have rated the seller barely 3 star). However, its performance and battery life are quite good. With the use I give it, its battery lasts between 50 and 60 hours. 2) I almost returned the 5 Pro because I had serious pairing problems with my phone (a Redmi 11S). It paired on the first day and then randomly lost connection. To link it again, it was necessary to reset it to factory settings. I had to do a lot of research on the internet and I found the solution. For the love of humanity, I share it with you right here: a) You must approve absolutely all permissions on your mobile for the Galaxy Wear and Samsung Health Apps by browsing Settings / Applications / Permissions. Among others, you must activate the Automatic Start in Background option. b) Go to Battery Optimization settings and enable “Auto Start” for each Samsung Galaxy Watch related app. c) Disable battery optimization for those same apps. d) This is the most important step (the one that no one tells you about): Go to Settings > System App Settings > Security > Boost Speed ​​> Lock Apps > Select Galaxy Watch Plugin + Samsung Accessory Service (on my Redmi Note 11S it is on Settings / Apps / System app settings / Security / Speed ​​boost / Lock apps). Only then did the 5 Pro stop disengaging and start working well. This procedure saved him from being returned to Amazon. In conclusion: The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is worth it today (July 2024). If you buy it on Amazon Renovated, you should know that you will not receive a unit in perfect aesthetic condition (even if they indicate that its condition is Excellent) and you will get accessories of medium or low quality. The best smartwatches with Wear OS have a battery life of 2 or 3 days maximum. If you agree with these features, you can get an excellent smartwatch for an average cost (not as low as it should be).

It looks like new, doesn't have any scratches and comes with its own charger. Very pleased.

This arrived in excellent condition! Every thing appears to work just fine. The price was decent. Delivery was quick.

Great watch for the price looks totally brand new.

Worked for less than 2 months. It was great for a month, then I spent a month with it constantly losing connection to my phone (4-10 times a day), and then it just died one day. Won't turn on, won't charge. It was fully charged when it died, I had only been wearing it about 15 minutes. It started vibrating wildly, then turned black. Won't turn on, won't charge, can't be detected by my phone. It lasted just past the return window so I'm just out of luck. Can't even contact the seller since the return window closed. Expensive lesson.
