Nice video. A couple of more tips. 1. You can create folders on the app screen. 2. You can add the GBoard. I do this because right on the main keyboard, you have a voice button. That's much easier than typing.

[@nicholasroberts8422]

Most helpful suggestions.

[@user-jb7cj6zq3p]

So helpful! I buy tech then sometimes don't set up because there's so many features. This video clearly helped me do all the important first steps. Fantastic!

[@SportsBoss999]

Really good tips and tricks. I've only had my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic a few days and I love it. But for me it takes awhile to figure out what features it has. Loved the tip on putting Google Assistant on my watch. Its a cool feature when I wanna show off what my watch can do!

As a newbie to smart watches I didn't know where to start with all the features - this was so helpful! Also appreciate that you spoke clearly and at a good pace! Just subscribed!

[@hobbitpsi]

Pro tip. Go into Advanced settings. Under gestures you'll see a wrist flick gesture option. Use the third option and you can set up the gesture as if you have a third custom button. I have mine set up to open Google Wallet. It's pretty nice.

[@Druezy]

Great tips! I have a watch 6 44mm coming tomorrow, first watch since the original moto 360 in 2014.

Ordered the fold 5 and two watch 6 classic. Thought i got the 47mm but ended up woth the 44mm or 43mm cant remember which one. Worried about the battery life. I have the watch 5 40mm and 44mm and the batter on the smaller one was a little short for me. Hoepfully it last atleast 2 days

[@kwalletje99]

Geezz, are you rich or some?

[@woodzy883]

@kwalletje99 not in the slightest. Used two trade ins phone and watch, which gave me 1250 off the top, military discount was another 270 or 300 off, rakuten gave me 12% back which I get that back in amex MR points for travel, plus the Credit Card I used had a deal for samsung which gave me another 150 back off any ssung purchase over 500. So in total out of pocket I spent around 500-600 and that's with a value of 1cent per point for the amex points when I generally get a return on those of around 2.5 cent per point. It's called stacking deals.

[@wookrep4k]

So helpful!

[@Princeton_James]

Got the 6 classic and love it. Was so worried about the battery life but it is very good. I really don't see a difference compared to the 5 pro. I also ordered a 6 because it feels much lighter. This will be perfect to switch out when I'm exercising. The 6 classic is too nice to wear to the gym.

[@Gadgetonomy]

I like Bixby. You know it might not be the best at answering simple questions, but it's incredibly powerful when it comes to routines and device control. I don't think people bother to take the time to get to know it.

[@hobbitpsi]

I had plenty of time to get to know it. And by far as far an assistant goes, it's worse than siri. For what you said you like it for, yeh it does those but that's mainly because it's a samsung tool designed for the samsung phone so yeh it's going to be good at device control. Sure answering simple questions is ok, but majority of people who use the assistant use it for more and Bixby just can't hack all that yet. Besides.... The watch is using WearOS by Google...Using an assistant that isn't native to the OS isn't natural.

[@innocent208]

Bixby is good but you know this American don't appreciate nothing outside there country 🙄. Its actually sad
