[@BogdanM116]

I was always an analog watch fan until about a year ago when I got a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic with my S21 Fe. I got used to it and I love the rotating bezel. It makes it much easier to navigate and it gives the watch a stylish look imo. I'm really sad that the Watch 5s don't have this bezel and once this thing dies I'll probably revert to a good old classic watch.

[@kcgunesq]

The next gen is rumored to bring back the bezel. if it gets good reviews, I will upgrade from my 1st Gen.

[@MrMega200]

I use Amazfit because they have good support and the battery lasts 6-7 days with all of the bells and whistles enabled. I'm done with using smartwatches that have to be charged daily because after a year or more of that, the internal battery is useless and super low on the capacity, which makes the use experience worthless for tracking work outs or even use as a regular watch for that matter.

[@Riccorbypro]

I was eyeing the watch 4 for a while, but the watch 5 was really close to launch when I eventually wanted to buy one. Once I discovered the watch 5 wouldn't have a classic variant, that basically sold me on the 46mm watch 4 classic. The mechanical bezel really is the best part of the watch - navigation around the UI is just so much easier with it.

[@MrMega200]

@@Riccorbypro hmmm I used to use a Gear 2 until the battery died fully. Will give credit to Samsung for making the ring durable as I have accidentally got used motor oil leaked onto it without thinking when I was doing the oil change in the first year. With a little use it got back to rotating freely. Unfortunately I had to retire it when I found out that the battery in my AT&T version was made with a different cable than the replacement, which had the same part number... That and other things I experienced with a Samsung phone that I have gone through 4 replacements has made me give up on them.

[@quattro_vp]

haha yeahh, I was thinking of upgrading from my Gear S3 but the Watch 5 has no rotating bezel. If the other comments are to believed and the next gen is to have a bezel, I think that is when I will upgrade

[@Khaostheory1980]

The Galaxy Watch 5 lasts around three days before needing a charge and if you put it in just watch mode only (so the same as an analogue) it lasts over a month.

[@An-T-onyoutube]

@@Khaostheory1980 I know, even mine lasts 3 days easy. but my Analogs last months to years, and I need a watch daily (out of habit) to tell the time whenever I look at my wrist, so yeah.. It's not even a competition as to what a "watch" is in my case. 😇

I've read that some Chinese citizens are more into appearances than functionality, so I can see why these watches exist. We're talking about the same country that builds Range Rover knock-offs that have nice interiors, but all of the refinement of an abused 10 year old Hyundai

[@minatheengineer]

It seems that fake electronics, especially ones with fairly consistent form factors, are usually previous generation tech repacked into a new body and forced to run newer or knockoff software. Kind of like with the AliExpress graphics cards that are 660s coerced to say they're 2060s. I'd be interested to see a comparison of the guts of these to one of the early Apple watches to see if someone just didn't get a bunch of old watch guts and stick them in a new case.

[@whynot9694]

I reside in China and have used the watches. First off it’s so simple to get out the app (stopwatch) 😅😅 you just slide on the screen and you’ll be out of the app. No need to let the battery run out ( 30days waiting😂😂😂😂😂) 7:37 so technically the watch can be deemed “useless” for a person not residing on mainland but it’s pretty useful , even with the Wearfit app data synchronization is actually pretty decent. Considering you can even do sports(laps,run) with people in your province. Maps works etc . Not hating btw just sharing

[@cheesethesylv]

[@dreibel]

Do these knockoffs of Apple Watches even claim to have the Health function of real ones? Like how well does it track physical activity, can it measure heartbeat, blood oxygen? I use my Watch 6 for keeping track of my walking and heart rate, in fact when I had my heart attack two years ago I was able to keep track of my heart rate while I was waiting in emergency, and it will warn you if your heartbeat is erratic or accelerated. I would never trust one of these with my well-being, they,re really there to act as arm candy. Glad you did this video.

[@cheesethesylv]

Pretty much if you do a bit of research then yeah they do exist. I own H10 Pro which is a Series replica. Does it job well enough for me and for the low price of $25 it does have an real heart rate sensor.

[@BellaBankes]

I have an iphone, and a few cheapie smartwatches that I use to track steps, runs, and conveniently receive messages without having to get my phone out at work. When compared to the Apple Health app the smartwatch data is very close! The functions are nearly identical to an Apple watch. And I only have to charge them every 4 days. refuse to spend the money on another Apple device - phone and iPad pro have given them plenty of my cash haha.

Question: how long do y'all's smart watch battery last? I heard 1-2 days is the norm is that true? I have 2 Xiaomi watches one lasts 14 days and the other for over a month

[@rustler08]

Usually about a day, the Ultra can last a second day if you don't use it excessively. If you forget to charge them, you're going to have a dead watch sometime during the next day in most cases. It's kind of amusing, I bought a stainless steel Series 4 the day the Series 5 came out for a massive discount (specifically because I wanted the sapphire to prevent scratches). It took a couple months before I basically stopped wearing it. I still have it, and it still works just fine, but I just don't care enough to use it due to the negatives. The main problem is that it's just not useful enough for me to have a second device that I need to charge every day. I will probably start looking at them seriously when we get an Apple Watch with a minimum of 72 hours of battery life.

[@xxxxtripxxxxOSG]

I went with a Garmin watch because I didn't want to have to worry about charging yet another device every day. It is a Forerunner and it lasts 7 days or more. Granted, it does not have near the "smart watch" capabilities that some have, but I can answer calls, read texts, send quick replies, and control audio. But it has a lot more fitness capabilities, which is my main reason for having one anyway.

I find it funny when peopple buy something for 80% less than the real thing (so in this case, like $50 for a knock-off of something that costs $500+ from Apple) and then complain because it doesn't work as well as the more expensive one.
