Samsung's Galaxy Watch 5 doesn't break new ground in the world of smartwatches, but it is the best Android watch you can buy right now. It has a bigger battery compared to last year's models, a more durable design and a new temperature sensor -- but you can't use it yet. It looks and feels much the same as last year's Galaxy Watch 4, so it's definitely an iterative update rather than a major overhaul. This year's watch comes in two variants: the $279 Galaxy Watch 5 and a slightly larger, more rugged $450 Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, which I have also reviewed. Apart from the construction, sports modes and battery capacity, they share most of the same features. If you own a Galaxy Watch 4, there's no compelling reason to upgrade unless you want a bigger watch in the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, or slightly better battery life from both new variants. The software is largely unchanged from last year and, perhaps more importantly, you lose the fan-favorite rotating bezel present on the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic.
