One thing I'll never understand as a user of the first Galaxy Watch Classic with its 7 day battery life is how for generations and generation of Samsung watch upgrades the battery life can only really last about a day. That crap is super annoying, especially when they want to charge such a massive premium when other companies are already using better battery technology and more efficient software to keep the watches going. This has been my frustration for years.
I wore my galaxy watch for 3 years climbing with no protection on it and while it got some scratches, it never really got anything on the screen and nothing cracked, it's a pretty durable piece of hardware.
The only time it really got in the way of climbing was on the occasional very large sloper where you get an arm on the hold and on crack climbs.
I don't wear it anymore because I no longer enjoy smart watches in general, but it was a pretty solid piece of tech in terms of durability.
