Galaxy Watch 6: Tips and Hidden Features

[@sanskrutitoley3119]

I am getting one today in a few hours and i am just so excited !!!!!

[@heystevehere]

Genuinely useful video, and the presenter was efficient in providing the information and tips. Great job Cnet.

[@a.e.1502]

This is great! I traded my years old GalaxyWatch for the 6 and love it! These tips actually suprised me by how useful they are.

[@nickrachjames]

Can you change the analog clock to digital one?

[@a.e.1502]

@nickrachjames Yes! There's tons of unique designs, and then if you find one you like, there are often options to customize it.

[@runnergirl777]

How's your battery life? I'm between buying this one or Garmin Venu 3❤ Thanks

[@a.e.1502]

@runnergirl777 It's definitely not as good as I'd like. I do have the health sensors running continuously instead of periodically, and it'll last almost 2 days. The great thing is that it charges super fast! I was actually surprised how fast it charges. I wear mine at night to track my sleep, so I'll usually charge it while I'm making dinner or taking a shower.

[@meancheeto]

​@@runnergirl777grab the Venu 3. Battery lasts 7 days, for me, better gps and heart rate accuracy, and can talk and text as well

[@hbron112]

Thank you! I just got the 6 and you are my first video. Very helpful!

[@bahez511]

How is the battery life for daily usags after nearly 12 months?, is it true they say galaxy smart watchs lasts after 2 - 3 years?

[@willo300]

Great video! I got one of these for free with my S24 Ultra, I was already loving my old Galaxy Watch 46, but the Wear OS on the Watch 6 has so many cool features!

[@queenzinfinity492]

Ill be the rest of my senior life trying to figure these tips out🤣

[@TWJP99]

Shout out to lexy. Hands down my favorite cnet host!

[@bjarias]

... can information be transferred from a Garmin watch to Samsung Galaxy6 (ie-step-walking-history)..??

[@FromDesertTown]

Lexy is the best. These tips are very useful. Encore!

[@mechellemiles6847]

Thank you. Can't wait to learn more from you

[@Jasondranoff]

Great tips there was one of two I didn't know and I consider myself pretty experienced!!!

[@aylorpaul39]

Thanks for doing , some good tips. Quick question . In terms of your orange stretched watch face . Bottom app configuration / complication looks like you have a download button on the no 6 dial ? Or is it something else and how did you add?

[@felixmitchell7888]

what size strap is included in watch 6 40mm small or large?

[@camatthaeus]

Is there an app for blood pressure monitoring?

[@SuzielaJamil-zh2ok]

Yes

[@mgratk]

Love my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. Fantastic watch.

[@eaglemovieclips4472]

How is the battery?

[@mgratk]

@@eaglemovieclips4472 Easily can get a full day out of it. I usually charge mine before bed so I can track my sleep, and that carries me through to the next evening.

[@vhol93]

voice input is awesome tip!

[@lorettacali10370]

Just got a watch.... great sale...free. love your video...i can follow and pause! Please make more bc there's so little that I'll do with it otherwise and that would be such a waste

[@jejunamja]

Hey thanks for all the tips and I didn't know I could make Gboard my default on the phone. That's great!

[@greggsweet1972]

Thank you, this is awesome!

[@christinaj.2867]

When working out. Is there a way for my audio to not be interrupted after 30 minutes to tell me ive been working out for 30 minutes and it tells me the heart rate and calories burned?

[@athenalorraine]

Very useful information. Thanks for a concise video.

[@winsomezinckebrooks4936]

Hi I downloaded Microsoft outlook on my watch6...and added Yahoo-Mail..i see my emails but i don't see where i can send an email.. Can you assist?

[@tammysparacino1710]

Great tips do you have full list

[@amirfyzool5282]

Can you change the app display?

[@janezarnowski1674]

Great video! Love the orange analog watch face on the video what's the name/developer?

[@joankaiser3527]

Thanks for the tips. My biggest problem with this watch6 is the battery ... can't get it to last as long as my original watch4. Any tips? Thanks

[@lindsayjimenez8530]

Love this but how do I add my Gboard I downloaded the app and tried every step you took but it's not coming up

[@julieprince77]

I'm getting mine tomorrow, cannot wait

[@Nature_vibes-vidz]

Thanks for discovering all the new things and telling the secrets to us I really wonder how much time u sped finding these things u r so cool!!!

[@colonelangus3157]

It can help you take x-ray pictures, it sees through clothes. ❤ that feature!

[@petermccavington8232]

Do I need to pay monthly service for this watch?

[@editor3210]

Grat video. I have Galaxy Watch 6 and I did not know these things. I am going to use some of them.

[@BTinHD]

How do I get this watch face 3:58 ?

[@jwdesselle]

I am looking for it too.

[@maria-larisahohan9502]

Can i see photos on it from the phone 😊or read pdf? Thank you!

[@irishnz_9558]

Yes, and you can have them as a watch face background. I'm not sure what pdf is, though.

[@MeganVielleux]

Do you know if there is a quick way to lock the screen while wearing?

[@josephbennett3482]

If the security pin for mobile payments is set up the only way to lock the watch is by removing it from your wrist because as long as you're wearing it it's going to stay unlocked.

[@ianmh64]

Where is the watch face from?

[@granniediva2559]

My watch keeps me from answering my phone on my phone...I hate that...how can I switch it back Thanks in advance!!!

[@NetITGeeks]

For some reason Samsung Canada decided to gift me a Samsung Watch 6 44mm out of nowhere by shipping it to me. Yes, I did check my order history and it is in fact a gift and they did not charge me anything. But I am wondering if I should gift this to someone as my Watch 4 40mm is more than enough for me. Samsung Canada didn't even give me a choice on sizes when they randomly send it to me.

[@rickathey2990]

How can I add Blood Pressure monitoring to my Galaxy 6 in the US?

[@josephbennett3482]

The Samsung Health Monitoring app.

[@donfullbright8468]

Thanks for the information

[@KoseogluMurat]

Thank you great tips, love them.

[@carolbryant9062]

Question, I can not get my peloton calories to sync with watch 6, even though the watch is the heart monitor??

[@Buharialtinee]

Thanks for sharing

[@sreejithekarunakaran5673]

Great work 👏

[@chazdk1]

Awesome video. More tips, please!❤

[@SmartyP89]

Does this watch work with both iOS and android?

[@lorenzococco8054]

no, only android

[@josephbennett3482]

None of the Samsung watches work with iPhones , you will need to buy an apple watch in order to have a smart watch to use with your iPhone. Samsungs watches only work with their phones and a few other android models.

[@MuchkinMarc]

Where can i get the temperature

[@AliKazi]

Great tips ❤ I want to know more please 😊

[@vpnconsult]

Why the battery lasts only 2 days in stead of 2 weeks or more? ⌚

[@PrabhablyAGoodYouTuber]

because there are a lot of sensors and features

[@superiortoall22]

Because it’s a smart watch not just a fitness tracker like a Garmin

[@mrniceone17]

It's because it's a *REAL* smartwatch that connects and gives you notifications without pulling out your phone. It's also compatible on majority of Android Apps. And I'm pretty sure you're talking about Huawei Watch GT 4 46mm because it says "2 week battery life". BUUUUT; 1. reviews says it's inaccurate and it can only last 12 days with ALL major features OFF. So basically, it's just a watch. And, 2. Huawei watch doesn't have the majority support of all Android Apps because it's running HarmonyOS which is *different* with WearOS. And even Apple can't pass more than 2 days. So yeah, there's no REAL smartwatch that can last weeks.

[@mrniceone17]

​​@@QuentinAnthonyAndersonI think he's talking about the Huawei Watch GT 4. But I still don't know if it's acceptable to call that as a smartwatch. Yes, it has the bells & whistles on the fitness part. The notification & app support part isn't available or robust than WearOS or even WatchOS of Apple because it uses HarmonyOS with low app support. Though it can last a full week with some features turned on, and if all features are off, it can last 12 days.

[@candlepeace]

​@@QuentinAnthonyAndersongt3 last 2 weeks !

[@apithonor]

Thank you SO MUCH for the accent fixer!

[@johnbennett4505]

Great tips thanks

[@carriewhite2378]

When i tried downloading the Gboard on my watch i can't find it on my watch.

[@kfamadventuresfl]

I have an Active2.. is it worth the upgrade?

[@josephbennett3482]

Absolutely because Samsung is discontinuing the support for their Active line , but if you don't want to fork out the money for the watch 6 you can always just get the 5 because it's the same exact watch the only difference is that the 6's screen is slightly bigger though the 6 as of right now is pretty terrible the battery life is quite bad from what most people have said which isn't looking very good for Samsung since they have a very good reputation in high quality devices.

[@214beauti]

Thanks for the tips😊

[@JohnCeena-ek1kz]

Can I send messages from watch(from messenger)?

[@jimpaton7]

Thank you!!!

[@lauriemcdougall3194]

Please send more tips

[@cubinn149]

Tryed both watches using the classic its awesome

[@NRHTX1]

This is great and everything. But please share with us how to get the ECG to work with other phones like the Pixel 6 and 8 pro.

[@Arnavbawa23]

It doesn't work

[@Arnavbawa23]

You need a Samsung phone

[@josephbennett3482]

That feature is only available if you have a Samsung phone unfortunately , sorry.

[@Hwlkbuddy]

Please review LTE version

[@TimDC202]

Awesome tips

[@Kishberry]

Does anyone else have the issue where whatsapp messages keep pinging on the watch even though my phone is unlocked? (I have also turned the setting to off)

[@lindarabideau]

How do I connect ear buds and do they have to be Samsung?

[@josephbennett3482]

If the earbuds are Samsungs wireless buds then all you have to do is put the buds into pairing mode and then go into the watch settings to Bluetooth and select the buds when they show up.

[@Drrck11]

I have a Galaxy Watch 4, but I pretend it's a 6 😄

[@RajKumar-nw8lq]

Please help me. My galaxy 6 lte battery doesn't even last a day 😢

[@runnergirl777]

Has it improved? Just wondering before purchasing. Thanks ☺️

[@estn5545]

The watch is learning your usage in the first 3 days which uses more battery after 3 days u should get good battery

[@RajKumar-nw8lq]

Not yet. Still the same

[@darshansrinivasan]

Any updated? Has the battery improved?

[@nathanjcabrera]

It was in sale and they're giving me a $100 credit for a gear3 so should be a major upgrade for me

[@AnthonyChew]

A watch that tells me the temperature of the my coffee? So ADD TO CART!

[@eaglechas]

I'd be afraid of dropping my watch in the coffee

[@K.114.]

Is there a way to move the Emergency Call right next to the Power Off button????

[@dannybigz7359]

3:55 *screen burn has entered the chat*

[@RockinRose]

I just ordered the watch 6 regular 40mm and am trading in my watch 5. Not really sure the differences but for 55 bucks after trade in and discounts for Black Friday it was worth it. Husband will trade in his 5 pro for the 6 classic for 80 bucks.

[@JustLookHowDusty]

I am only getting about 12 hours of battery life with mine. I just reset it and just have the included bears watch face with lift to raise enabled. It''s really bad battery life.

[@albertroydelrosario7142]

I like the watch face. Do you mind sharing the name of that watch face?

[@tammysparacino1710]

I would also love watch face

[@KidSillyFresh]

Another cool feature these devices have is when you want to know the exact time of day, it will tell you what it is.

[@MichaelChalupa]

CAN THE WATCH SAY THE TIME USING VOICE

[@josephbennett3482]

No not on it's own , you'll need to ask Bixby or Google assistant what time it is if you want to hear the time.

[@kissmyaxe74]

My time in bed on my watch is always about an hour later than the actual time. I've tried every setting, reset it, etc. I cannot find a calibrate setting to fix it

[@6c2jz]

Yes and me

[@LutherBuilds]

I'd like to know the watch faces she's using in the intro. One of them looks like R2D2.

[@josephbennett3482]

Th blue and white ringed one is called: Stretched Time.

[@amigatommy7]

Have a five and a one. First one still has best battery life by a bit.

[@nathanielnapier73]

Probably due to the lack of sensors and/or other features that use more power.

[@Janie-cy1kc]

Why does my sleep not recorded the whole night. It skips recording during the night??

[@cubinn149]

U dont sound like you have much of accent i think their is uk English voice activate aswell might be a download

[@agariya1]

I using watch 6, performance not good 5/3, don't by exynos chip watch, my first or last galaxy watch

[@jasjas1966]

It lags the move to android or was a poor choice should've stuck to tizen

[@EPICService-dx5rh]

If only it worked correctly. The gestures after one year, still doesn't work seamlessly.

[@carolbryant9062]

More tips

[@stefanbrons]

The gps does not work well at all on the samsung smartwatch 6 if you compare this to the polar pacer which is a lot cheaper. The samsung smartwatch is really tremendously bad with the gps. I would never recommend this watch to runners. You can't even set the best satellite combination for the gps. This is really a super bad and samsung does nothing about it. You should also mention in your video. But probably you got the watch.

[@technodrone313]

stopped buying samsung products after they briked my gw4 with an update and refused to help me.

[@josephbennett3482]

They're streamlining their line of devices to make room for new ones , it's normal for older devices to become unsupported after a while because the software in the devices become uncompatible with new apps and software updates and since manufacturers and developers don't want customers complaining about not having the latest apps and software they just stop the old devices from being able to run on their app.
