I work in the medical field, and I think accurate blood pressure monitoring is difficult to achieve through smartwatches. You have to have proper tightness on the band and also needs to be placed at specific pulse points to read the blood pressure right. That's why no smart watches yet are able to do it on their own. You have to have specific equipment for this type of stuff. I think they should stop promising us those stuff.

Keep your fingers crossed for the Fitbit acquisition! They've acquired Fossil's smartwatch tech, whatever that means. It could be they are going to take Fossil's hardware technology to make a Google branded one. They are trying to acquire Fitbit, because of the software. Wear os, for me, is fine. But I'd be lying if I said it was a fitness watch. Taking a hr reading every 20 mins, barely, isn't something to be proud of. And with that being all you get with wear os health wise, aside from step counting, you need help. Thankfully they decided to acquire Fitbit to finally understand the health/software side of things. It hasn't gone through yet, and it's been almost a year. But like I said, keep your fingers crossed!

@@magellan124 I don't understand how apple watch gen 1 addresses anything I've just wrote about what I would expect from smartwatch. You've just described the very problem of every smartwatch. It works only in the very specific setting for very specific set of users who can find charging spots anywhere they turn around. Any scenario where electricity supply is limited aka camping, long travel, remote place visits and necessity to prioritise battery level of your phone turns your smartwatch into a dead weight. And I'm sorry to say that but unlike iPhone, apple's watches are just plain ugly. I would rather go with regular watch and old iPod.

Truth - While we can fit plenty of technology in a small 1 x 0.25 inch watchface... Just as a smartphone is not capable of exceeding a full gaming laptop/desktop PC, smartwatches have significant limitation. Combine the hardware limitations with the fact that most consumers are obsessed with phones because of KZbin or Social Media... A small screen on a watch, despite portability, will not surpass the phone until they come up something like a powerful projector onto your clothes, wall, etc. or holographic imaging (which we are likely a decade away from individual user technology). The best thing about smartwatches are the fitness features, the ability to play music without your phone, and the ability to pay digitally by touch. It will never surpass a phone until more features are available. Presently, I've been waiting to buy a smartwatch that can be enabled as a mobile hotspot so I can use it for a tablet/laptop without an LTE chipset. A truly mobile hotspot capability. It would kill the battery quickly, but that's what wireless charging and portable chargers are for. I thought the Galaxy Watch 3 had this capability, but considering I've seen zero mention of it anywhere - I'm not going to trust the random posts on forums. On that note, any of you actually have the Watch 3 that can confirm a mobile hotspot setting?

Takes about 5 minutes. Blood Pressure feature needs to calibrated with a standard monitor and is custom to you and your particular wrist.

@@sagunmdr tell me about it man. I hate how slow this phone is, I can feel my beard growing as it's trying to load or process stuff. The volume is to quiet, the cameras suck, the screen is pretty trash, 1 thing I like about this phone is the 5000 ma-h battery, I wish my s10+ battery was bigger. Over than that, this phone can do one when I get my flagship back.

Just bought active 2, if you don't mind having a rotating bezel and 4gb storage, active 2 is the best bet, on a corporate discount of samsung website you will be getting the LTE version for 23.5k and can add an extra leather strap for 400Rs. If you are looking for Active 2 lte with steel the price is at 25k along with the strap offer. The prices which I stated here are with 10% cashback on HDFC card.

Important factors to consider, the only difference between active 2 and watch 3 is 1) Internal storage. 2) Rotating bezel. 3) Spo2 sensor on watch 3. 4) LTE version of active 2 has more Ram than the Watch 3 RAM. 5) Both of them comes with same Exynos processor. So for me Active 2 at a decent price is more sensible, as I can further customize it with 20mm straps and various accessories.

I totally agree, there's no significant difference between the two smartwatches (almost the Same features, that don't justify the price difference anyway). I bought the Active 2 roughly one week ago, but I was not aware about the SpO2 sensor. How can it be activated on the device? Thank you

Got my galaxy watch 3 for $240 the other day (with trade in plus the sale) and so far it's awesome! I actually disagree with the lack of apps bit, though my purposes are probably different than a lot of people's. I installed a bunch of fun games including a Gameboy advanced emulator, a file manager, and a video player (with like 5 whole episodes of star trek currently on my watch). I'm just having fun tinkering with it and using it basically, and I don't think I have any complaints considering how low of a price I got it for

I wondering when the blood pressure app is going to be out? Some of the apps only have heart readers and how many miles you walking and that's it. This is a wonderful watch in my opinion and has so many things it can and will do. There are so much this watch could offer and I believe this watch could be one fantastic part of the next future device we will definitely use like unlocking car doors, turning on lights in your home.

“They promised us ECG one month ago” - Meanwhile European customers still waiting for it for more than a year since they bought their GWA2.

Complaining about "only" 8 GB of internal storage in 2020 was pure whining. I don't think there were pretty much any smartwatches with more than 8 GB of storage except maybe the newest Apple watch. Absolute majority of people never fills even 4 GB on their watch, manufacturers know very well how people use their products and there was simply no need for more storage. It's just like with phone memory, in 2019 the S10+ shipped with up to 1TB internal + 1TB microSD storage, but people didn't even use it which is why in 2020 and forward Samsung ditched enormously large internal storage and sticked to 256 GB internal memory in flagships.
