Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 series deep dive review: Best Android smartwatch of 2021?

[@vasu033]

What a refreshingly different review comparing to standard recital of spec sheet we see everywhere these days. A little bit more effort by reviewers like this helps a lot in buying decisions and increases credibility of reviewers. Thank you.

someone we can all understand

[@LucenProject]

Right! I always enjoy little considerations that real people go through. Often watches are used by people working out. Knowing the you can't change the orientation or the tip about blocking touches on the buds can be just as important if not more important in the purchase decision how much faster the new processor is. He has good energy too.

[@beez1717]

What an amazing review. I may have to get this watch as an upgrade to my good old trusty Galaxy Watch 1!

[@stillyoung6524]

AMEN!

[@Staraptor19]

Wow, this is truly the best review of the watch, actually comparing it to professional grade equipment too! Truly wowed by a review after a long time. Kudos!

[@TshakaArmstrong]

🙏🏿

[@ChristopherBernard88]

I agree I watched about 8 review even tho I already preorder it. This one was the best review I seen. Great work💪🏿 my only question is I ordered mine through my provider in Canada, LTE version. Does the esim mirror the sim in my phone so it uses the same number. Hope that made sense. Thanks again

[@TshakaArmstrong]

@@ChristopherBernard88 makes perfect sense. Different carriers do that different ways so I can't answer it. T-mobile and Verizon in the US do something carrier side which mirrors the phones number using the esim. I talk about that in another video on my personal channels playlist.

[@ChristopherBernard88]

@@TshakaArmstrong thanks I will check out that video, I'm excited to get this watch in the mail next week. Thanks for the reply, keep up the great work.

[@ClayAnderson0313]

@@ChristopherBernard88 lol me too I'm very excited, I want to know as much as I can before it gets here

[@Ultima450]

I've looked at different reviews on this watch already but this is by FAR the best one I've seen yet! Knocked it out of the park! I especially like how in depth he was about how it works during different exercises and modes. No one else even talked about fitness usage! Very VERY well done! 👏🏽👍🏽

[@TshakaArmstrong]

And I like your Gundam avvie. I have a Wing Zero Master Grade build sitting in my office. And a Wing Zero Custom Master Grade still sitting in the box. lol

[@Destroyahx2]

Honestly this is the 3rd one and I think first one who isn't about the "it's not Apple" message. Very refreshing.

"training to beat goku" damn thats lit

The bottom of the Hoodie isn't shown but there are more words. It reads something along the lines of, "but I'll settle for Krillin." The end really sells it.

[@megasp]

Probably the best watch 4 classic review out there.

[@spyboyb321]

The best reviewer I've seen!!! Someone that actually wears watches, unlike others!

[@obidean3964]

@@TshakaArmstrong Keep up the good work man. If possible, could you compared it to the so-called "Best Smartwatch" claimed by many KZbinrs out there, the Apple Watch Series 6. Curious how they both stack up especially in the sensor measurements accuracy against the professional health devices that you used in this video because many reviewers seems to benchmark Apple Watch as the most accurate but haven't seen any one reviews that could justify this extremely lofty claim. And I also think many also feeling the same as mine too. Thx ...

[@blackmanscoop313]

Wow this was a fantastic review, love this guy's approach. Can't wait to see more of his content

[@AlanAl187]

Finally a good galaxy watch 4 review that really goes into detail on the watch usage and features, good job thanks

[@PenultimatePenPen]

Only halfway through but already really impressed by this review. Well done!

[@GarettWaters]

This is the best review for the Watch 4 I've seen. As a Gear S3 owner I appreciated the comparison to previous models. Review of the watch health metrics in this video has been the most comprehensive. Comparing stats with a gym sensor, a smart scale, chest strap, and finger tip pulse reader was much more informative than what I've seen in other reviews.

[@futureitshere]

This is the type of review I've been looking forward to. The fact that it's coming from Android Central is mind blowing. Great review! Is there a way to connect the polar h10 to the SGW4?

[@Veon1]

Best review I've seen of this watch so far, thank you. It looks great, I'm almost ready to pull the trigger but I'm still waiting for Google Assistant support.

[@TshakaArmstrong]

🙏🏿

[@DanielBader]

Agreed!

[@xvbd6067]

Very professional, very thumbs-up up

[@DeadmanInc336]

Same. I'll hold off just a little while longer and hang on to my third gen Moto 360. Hopefully Google Assistant support comes soon.

[@edxlee]

went on Samsung chat support today and asked if Google Assistant was confirmed for a future update, and the rep told me "Yes it will be added with the next software update it’s just a small delay." Have the conversation history saved! Hopefully he wasn't talking out of his ass.. lol

[@fgcchevy]

This is a review I've been looking for, great job on the video!

[@FlorisBos]

Already ordered it! Comming this friday!! Realy exited as this will be my first smartwatch!!!!!

[@ohnoitsalec]

Phenomenal review. I felt like I mostly knew what I was getting when I pre-ordered but this takes it to another level. Liked and subbed!

This is how review videos should be. Every day use and comparisons to pro devices. I'm impressed! Subscribed

[@nmrizig]

This review is literally perfect. I pre-ordered the 46 mm LTE classic model and I've been searching for more comprehensive reviews since then and no one that I came across had yet made one. I was hoping someone would compare the BIA sensor to a professional grade sensor like those found at gyms (and I had LA Fitness in mind lol) so to come across this video that literally covered everything I was curious about has truly made my day. You definitely have a new subscriber in me!

[@CyberDraco]

I so clicked like and subscribe when he ran up the steps, one of the best minute intros ever my guy.

[@prashanthpradhan]

More reviews like this, and kudos to the reviewer Mr.Armstrong.

[@statgirl2]

You are literally the only one that did a deep dive on the BIA sensor I was most curious about. Thank you for testing this, I use Samsung Health a lot and got excited to hear about that new feature. Good to know the sensors for the most part are accurate, outside of the interval heart rate lag. Thanks, definitely subscribing!!!

[@TshakaArmstrong]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching.

[@ChrisGrosvenor]

Amazing review! I can agree with the others best watch review that I've seen. Came out of it so much more knowledgeable of the pros and cons for the galaxy watch.

[@AnthonyHarris-fe6zo]

An outstanding and comprehensive review! Your review style is a refreshing change, and I look forward to trying out some of the watch features you've discussed here.

[@TshakaArmstrong]

Thank you!

[@deathofthemagi]

Thank you for the review. I'm glad you mentioned the blood pressure not being approved yet. I was watching a last couple reviews before ordering it and you just saved me the money and disappointment. I really like my fitbit sense and was only moving away from it because of the blood pressure monitor.

[@TenshiR]

I get asked questions about smart watches all the time. This video is perfect. Whenever someone asks I'm sending them to this video. Brilliant!

What is the lug-to-lug measurement of the Watch 4 Classic 46mm? For example, my 2018 Samsung Galaxy Watch 46mm lug-to-lug measurement is 56mm.

[@TshakaArmstrong]

I'm order to test this properly, I believe I need some calipers which I don't own.🤔Yet.

[@tejas1090]

@@TshakaArmstrong Calipers are not mandatory for the measurement. You can take a millimeter scale, remove the bands from the watch, place one lug at zero mm, and then see where the other lug ends.

[@JoJo-oo7zt]

Hope they fix that HR latency because it makes a big deal when working out.

[@woldoorsockbat5087]

The latency seems to be only in the beggining of the exercise. I found someone who compared side by side 2 watches and a polar chest HR sensor and only the beggining is slow like 20 seconds

[@PsychoGoldVideos]

Dude this review is amazing. Best one I've seen by far and frankly the presenter is a big part of that. Loved the knowledge he had and thank you for comparing the watch to other sensors to finally see how accurate it is against professional equipment. Subscribing to see from this man.

[@achebeterence6908]

Wow a review that isn't negative out of the gate and isn't constantly saying how the apple watch is the best thing ever. Looking at you the verge.

[@kevinjones1259]

Great review... I am thoroughly enjoying my 46mm Classic. I had a S3 Frontier and it suddenly stopped working about a month before the release of Samsung's latest. I found that an interesting coincidence nonetheless. Looking forward to your next review.... Hopefully it will be on the next Samsung Note... Fingers crossed

[@TonyLenz316]

Literally, one of the best reviews I've seen in a LONG time. Tshaka is a new favorite. Keep reviews like this coming.

[@whyuneedtoknow]

Thanks for the great review! This is my first smartwatch and I am glad I held off on the Watch 3. I heard this was around the corner so I cancelled the 3. I pre-ordered my Watch 4 Classic, 46mm, and can't wait to get it...this Friday!
