Samsung Galaxy Watch9 review: light body, Snapdragon Wear Elite, weak battery

The 44mm Samsung Galaxy Watch9 weighs 34g without a strap and is 8.6mm thick, priced at S$568 in Singapore. It swaps Exynos for Qualcomm's Snapdragon Wear Elite with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage, plus a 1.47-inch Super AMOLED display at 3,000 nits. The 445mAh battery is rated for 40 hours, but in practice the watch needs daily charging.
