Lots of testing and research went into making this video. Before anyone gets upset in the comments, I want to add two disclaimers. First, I only showed the Watch6 and Watch7 in the HR & GPS test. That is because the 7 & Ultra have the same hardware, and the 6 & 6 Classic have the same hardware. Also, I wanted to ensure the highest degree of accuracy possible. Wearing two watches per wrist would risk significant error. Secondly, I am fully aware that the default workout start page modifications were already updated for the older watches. I meant to say that, but it just came out wrong in the video. Thanks for watching!

Debris like sand, dirt etc get stuck under it over time and it becomes crunchy and feels awful to use. Probably that's why, for durability. But if you don't really go out much or to places with a lot of dirt, sand etc that's not much of an issue I suppose.

@neonkapawn That's exactly right! And it's also in the maintenance. Me and wife both worked in a warehouse. She hardly ever cleaned the damn thing and I would wipe mine off and clean out regularly. After about 2 years with the watch 3, she could barely twist it. Mine moved just fine. Have the watch 6 now. No problems.

For those that arent familiar with the "FE" term, when it comes to Samsung(and some other brands), FE is Fan Edition. Basically, it's the same as the cheaper re-hash of older hardware in a newer body. Apple does the same thing with SE, but Samsung does it cheaper lol. Take requests from fan favorite features and place it in the new body type which is usually cheaper and lighter in weight. Sometimes current generation, non-flagship, Camera configuration.

I have the Tab S9 FE+ and I absolutely love it! My mom wants a tablet now, a year after I bought mine. She has a S10 phone, so after some research, we found this is still the best Samsung tablet for the value. I had bought the FE buds too, and they're great. But I don't get the same feeling from the watch. After looking at the specs, it seems way inferior to the 7. I didn't do much research into the buds, but the tablets are very similar in performance from the specs, especially if you choose the FE model with more RAM. I was kind of expecting that from the watch, but at least the 6 is still available so it's okay.

I regret to inform you that you might be underestimating the Galaxy 5 Pro, which is the best competitor and has a comparable battery life to the less appealing Ultra, despite the claim of two years of software updates. In my view, a practical lifespan for any smartwatch is around 2 to 3 years. Additionally, it's disappointing that Samsung still limits support for their smartwatches to only 4 years. Furthermore, restricting features like ECG and blood pressure monitoring to Samsung mobile users is regrettable and feels monopolistic. Regarding aesthetics, I find the Ultra quite unattractive. The regular Watch 7 is more visually appealing, and if battery life is a concern, the Galaxy 5 Pro is a better option. Lastly, for those who prefer a refined look, the Watch 6 Classic is an excellent choice.

The rotating bezel is a stand-out feature unique to this line of Samsung watches. These watches are very durable and have never let me down. I wear them to work and they can withstand a lot of abuse.

I see many criticisms of Samsung copying Apple, square case, orange strap balh blah blah. The square case watch design has been around for many years, before Apple ever existed... Catier, Seiko and even Rolex. Samsung uses a cushion case style for the Ultra, they didn't steel that from Apple. It's quite an old design. Orange strap? Doxa, Seiko and countless others have them. Neither Apple nor Samsung designs are original as far as case style or strap color.

Several important, in my opinion, tests were not done: 1. Test of the charging speed of the watches. With unremarkable autonomy (including pro and ultra variants) - this is a very important parameter. 2. LTE test. This function has been present in Samsung watches for a long time, but it is almost impossible to use it on older models in summer - the watch almost immediately goes into overheating. The question - whether there are changes in this directions - remains open.

Great content. As for bezel or lack of it. If you never had the bezel, you won't miss it. I had the watch4 44mm. And I love the watch 7ultra. The case reminds me of the Panerai luminor chronograph. As for bands, I already ordered 5 new bands. And putting the band on it wasn't that hard. Put it's super secure. As for the price, if you get it through a carrier, it will cost 27 dollars a month. Much more palatable. As for charging. You can charge from your phone using the charging puck plug it into your phone.

I have the GW6 and GW7. I ran multiple laps with both watches around a footpath through trees and open space. The GW7 was mostly a solid line, on the aerial path, with a typical difference around +/- 1m to 2m. A lot of the time the GW6 was +/- 5m or greater in several spots. This video is a bit misleading only showing one loop and the GW7 (and Ultra) is a big step up in GPS accuracy. EDIT: If you buy the GW7 through Samsung, make sure you get the dark gray band not the green one. It looks a lot better and should be the standard band on the darker GW7.

Just upgraded my GW4 Classic to the GW6 Classic for 90$ with these black Friday trade in deals. Over 300 dollars off listing price. Insane. Love the look of the classic watches with the rotating bezel.

I find it interesting to see people that care so much about reverse wireless charging their watch. I for the live of me wasn't able to make it work consistently and hated it. You had to remove your phone case, align your watch PERFECTLY and turn off notifications on both devices because the sensor against the back of the phone was basically two super slippery surfaces and EVERYTHING, even the most minor movement made the watch misalign and miss charging. There's no way it ain't easier to just plug your watch in its charger and that's it.

I have the Ultra after getting a 20% discount and trade in, it was affordable. Many years ago I had the Frontier with the rotating bezel, but found grit would get in there and you could hear it grinding when turned. So I don't miss that. I really like the Ultra. I mainly bought it for sports tracking. Also now for sleep tracking as it's somehow more comfortable than my Watch 5 Pro, even though it's bigger.

This is without a doubt the best comparison out there for a smart watch for people who have Samsung phones. It hits all of the pros and cons that matter. The Watch 5 Pro is in the ring for me too due to the battery life. When you travel and live abroad, your phone and being able to charge your watch off your the back of your phone makes sense instead of the hockey puck, and if you have a problem with it, it gets lost or stolen with your luggage, you are SOL. I'd even be good if it had a USB-C port. You cannot just buy something off Amazon if you are not a citizen, and when you can, it can take 2 to 6 weeks to get it, which means you can't be mobile during that period. I learned with my Note 20 Ultra that if you don't have long battery life, you also don't get a ride home because you can't call an UBER, so you have to watch the phone and turn it off and on to manage the battery. I don't want to deal with that with a watch now. I now have the S24 Ultra and I can go for days, and if necessary, do it twice more from a small 10,000 mah power, brick which can give me two more charges.

My Watch 6 Classic just got the Wear OS 5 update so that narrows the gap even further. The battery life improved dramatically. I used to wear it all day and did sleep tracking at night with AOD turned off. In the morning i would often be in single digits % remaining. Now i have 50-60% remaining. I will be turning AOD back on and trying that for a while. The charging also seems faster somehow but i havent timed it.

I am an older lady on social security, So I don't have a lot of money. Both of my so called smartwatches have just gone to pot. I won't be working out or running miles and miles like you do, But I do need to know my oxygen level and my heart rate, steps, And whether i'm having A-fib or not... plus my sleep. I hate the fact That my old smart watch would give me "steps" when I was out fishing and cranking my lure in! Yipes! Nice video! I have a Samsung Z Flip 5 And I love Samsung. I have samsung tablets too. I need a smart watch, But the faces of the watches nowadays are practically bigger than my wrist, but I suppose that just has to be? What would your advice to me be, please? God bless you!

I'm planning to buy a new smartwatch soon. And I have doubts between choosing the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic or the OnePlus Watch 2, if I have the S24 Ultra and Buds 2 Pro, am I missing out on a lot by choosing the OnePlus? And also, I have a relatively small wrist, does choosing 43 mm take away much in terms of battery?

I was I'm the same boat - have a S24U, Buds2Pro and diving in to my first smartwatch. I REALLY like the watch6 classic and was going to get this as it can be customised to look like a real watch and match my suits, but with it being 16gb, less accurate gps and features, I went with Galaxy watch 7. I will probably end up trading it towards their next classic variant, and with it being newer, will get more trade in credit

For a small wrist, the 40mm version of the Samsung Watch 7 is a good fit. Compared to other watches, you get a widget to control headphones, an information widget about the battery status of Samsung devices, search for Samsung devices from the watch, functions for measuring body parameters, including cardiogram and blood pressure, native integration with a pretty good Samsung Health program, accurate sensors, fast performance with a plan for the future and the function of advanced fast responses to messages based on AI, which can be very useful. About the battery life, it's not particularly good, but it's not a disaster either. You just need to get in the habit of charging them during your morning shower and breakfast, and in the evening at dinner or watching a movie. You can even place the charger somewhere around the table - you eat and the watch eats). Then it's all good, the watch can be used to its full potential, with the screen and all sensors always on. IMHO, for a small wrist, it's the best buy paired with the c24 ultra. And, by the way, you also get LTE, which can sometimes come in handy in case you forgot your smartphone somewhere or decided to go for a walk without it.

Btw, here's a quick info why Qi Wireless charging isn't available on the Watch 7/ultra: The new BioActive sensor somehow is bigger than the previous generation that pushes the charging coil further by about a few millimetre or something. This is just a guess but yup. Not a big blow to me cause my phone battery ain't enough and too slow to charge the Watch 7. (I have owned it and it's quite awesome, faster charging than Watch 6/6 Classic and prev gens.)

Guys, I want to buy my first Galaxy Watch and I always see people just talking about the upgrade. Which one should I buy: 5, 6 or 7? There's some info below to give more context. 1. I'm only looking for 40mm. 2. Not interested in the classic/ultra version. Maybe the pro, but never checked it to be sure. 3. I really like the black color. I'm disappointed with the lack of black option in the 7, but if the 6 straps are compatible with the 7, I'm willing to buy it. Black colored bezel is more important for me than the strap color though.

No rotating bezel is great for a watch that can take more hits, athletic exposure to elements, less cleaning, less breakage, less mechanical error. The touch rotation works great. You get use to it. If you want all the advantages above than a non rotating bezel is better.

As the battery life on the watch 6 classic let me down on occasion, I thought it was worth it (alongside with the better accuracy). Most of the software updates are coming to the 6
