- Galaxy Watch 7 boasts a powerful Exynos W1000 processor whereas the Watch Series 10 has a quicker charging dual-core S10 processor.
- Both watches come with dual-band Wi-Fi 5, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.3: however, Galaxy Watch 7 has dual-frequency GPS and Apple Watch has single-frequency GPS.

- Series 10 has titanium variants available only with Wi-Fi + cellular option priced at $700 and $750 for 42/46mm models.
- Design elements for both watches are different with Galaxy Watch 7 having a circular face, while the Watch Series 10 comes in a squircle shape with a spinning crown.
- Galaxy Watch 7 and Series 10 work on separate platforms, hence their software is different, with Galaxy Watch 7 having Wear OS 5 and Series 10 featuring watchOS 11.
- Galaxy Watch 7 is compatible with Android and works best with Samsung smartphones, but most of its capabilities work with Android phones. The Series 10, on the other hand, only works with iPhones.
- Both watches have health and wellness features, activity monitoring, and can replicate smartphone notifications, store music, and handle contactless payments.
- While both watches can track heart rate, ECG, sleep, stress, and SpO2 sensors to track blood oxygen, they have unique features such as Galaxy Watch 7's BIA sensor that measures body composition that Series 10 lacks and the Apple Watch's Crash Detection feature that can identify traffic accidents and connect you to emergency services.
- Thus, for most Android users, the Galaxy Watch 7 is best as it performs well and tracks health and fitness, enables contactless payments, has a good battery life, and gets four Wear OS updates.
