How to change the band on your Samsung smart watch

Different bands for Galaxy Watch4

If you're bored of wearing the same band day after day, we have good news. Samsung watch bands are easily replaceable. All you need to do is make sure the new band is the correct width for your watch model. Once you have one that matches your style, you can swap them out in just a few quick steps to further customize your look.

Note: The leather band may make a squeaking sound where it connects with the Galaxy Watch3 due to characteristics of the material. This is normal and you can address this issue by applying leather care products to the band at the connection point. Metal bands may cause interference with the Galaxy Watch4. You may experience dropped calls, GPS inaccuracy, and deviations in body composition measurements.

Although Samsung watches come in different shapes and sizes, many of them use the same band width. As long as you have the proper width, you can alternate the bands however you want. Whenever you’re itching for a new look, there is a wide selection of replacement bands on our website and online.
