What size band does the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 - LTE · 40mm take?
20mm. Any 20mm strap fits, so you are not limited to Samsung's own bands — look for a quick-release fitting if you want to swap without tools.
How long does the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 - LTE · 40mm battery last?
Samsung rates it at 1.6 days per charge in everyday use.
Is the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 - LTE · 40mm thick for a 43mm watch?
At 9.8mm, thinner than 98% of 43mm watches, so it slides under a cuff more easily than most of its size. Thickness, not case width, is what decides whether a watch catches on a shirt cuff.
What other watches are the same size as the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 - LTE · 40mm?
Garmin Bounce 2, OnePlus Watch 3 43mm, Oppo Watch X2 Mini, Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Stainless Steel / Black Meteorite / Bracelet all sit within half a millimetre of the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 - LTE · 40mm's 43.3mm case, so they cover the same amount of wrist.
What is the lug-to-lug of the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 - LTE · 40mm?
44.4mm, against a 43.3mm case width. Lug-to-lug is the measurement that decides overhang: if it exceeds the flat width of your wrist, the lugs sit past the edge no matter how modest the case diameter looks.
