[@JustLookHowDusty]

I really appreciate all the hard work you put into your investigations! Your dedication and thoroughness are truly impressive. Thanks for sharing this with us! 🙌

[@deagingguru]

Could you do a battery test on the 40mm as well?

[@No_Hookshot]

Thanks so much for the great review. As a recent Galaxy 6 Classic purchaser that decided to skip out on the 7's pre-release, I'm kind of glad I did. Apart from the larger sensor (which may or may not be leaps and bounds more accurate than the 6) and a slightly snappier processor, I just see no need for the extra money on the 7. Especially when the 6 does pretty much everything that the 7 does. I get great battery life on my 6 classic and can last 2 full days without a charge, though I charge anyways since it's quick and I don't wear my watch to sleep.

[@enfeeyano]

same thing watch 5 owners said when 6 was launched

[@No_Hookshot]

@@enfeeyano True. I only got the 6 classic because it's my first real fitness watch and I was late to the game. It was right at the time Samsung had the buy 1 get 1 free so ended up paying around $160 for my 6 classic. Then the regular 6 for my dad for Father's Day. I do like that Samsung has a nice trade-in program, so if I ever want to upgrade in the future, they give nice credit for watches in good condition.

[@My.MusicChannel]

can't wait for your Buds 3 Pro review!! it would be so good if you compare them to the original Buds Pro, it's a rare comparison and I can't find anything about it as someone who wants to upgrade from the original Buds Pro. I'm especially curious about the sound quality.

[@michaelggriffiths]

Thanks for the video. The problem with the Galaxy Watches are the intrusive Alerts. I've had many Galaxy Watches as I am a die hard Samsung user. I need the watch to help me with my ADHD, it's really helpful in finding my phone, and giving me important reminders of things I am highly likely to forget. I recently suffered a health issue meaning that I need to monitor my health, and the GW is perfect for this. BUT, what I find is that Samsung Health keeps alerting me to things I already know, like 'You've been walking for 10 minutes". Or "You've stopped walking", or "You've walked 5000 steps" 0 I do not need these alerts as they very much distract me. As someone who suffers with ADHD, I find the alerts annoying, as I think I'm receiving an important message, so I look at my watch, only to be greeted with the foolishness mentioned earlier! Also, I'm always running late for things, so I grab my watch as I'm rushing out the door, and try to see what time it is, and if i have any missed alerts, but as soon as I take it off the cradle, I get an obnoxious smiley face telling me that the watch is at 100% - that evil smiling face stares at me for about 5 seconds as I'm desperately trying to see what time it is! Then, when the face disappears, I get an awful heart shaped animation with rings inside it talking about Health Goals for the day - I have to wait another 5 seconds until that is gone to finally see the time, and use the 'find my phone' function to locate my phone (I almost _always_ loose it), and then get of to my meeting/work. As I'm rushing to my appointment, I then get a vibration on my watch, which I always assume is an email, or something important about my work - so I slow down to look at the watch, but all I see is a notification that I've been walking for 10 minutes!! I dont want to turn notifications OFF, as I need to monitor my heartrate and overall health, so I'm stuck with these constant annoying health notifications!

[@RyansTechMedia]

I appreciate you sharing this. I hope I can address at least a couple of these points in an upcoming video.

[@katerinamichael-kk1ts]

Had 6 for a yr waiting for my watch 7.

[@MonkeyPunchZPoker]

I read somewhere because of the shape of the glass and new sensors other chargers will be slower and hotter.

[@SPISheste]

Nothing compares to the bulge on Apple Watches, I’m on my third watch and I almost have a permanent imprint on my arm lol

[@Robbe1984]

I would really like to know what the battery life is without AOD. I use my watch primarily for notifications, heart rate and music control so I always turn off GPS, NFC and everything else I don't need. Get around 3-3,5 days of battery with my Ticwatch 3 pro ultra and I wonder what similar usage would get me with this watch

[@jaydawg3031]

My galaxy watch 5 last around 2 days.

[@Robbe1984]

@@jaydawg3031 Thanks mate! So they say this new exynos chip is 3x faster that watch 6's which means it should have better battery life

[@TheHummingBirdJaiye]

I have the watch 6 classic 47mm. I like it but its definitely too bulky and in the way during sleeping. My settings allow me to wear it or have it off the charge for two to three days. But i always charge it when showering or anything that doesnt require me to wear it. I use it for basic needs. Nobody needs a watch that lasts seven days unless you do a lot of traveling without tech.

[@Texa8]

30 minutes off is a pretty big red flag imo Waiting for quantified scientist to review it

[@fredyfrancisthekomban]

Me too

[@MrTagoe-xw8yg]

I remember his video on the GW4. got one and whatever he said didn't apply. sleep and nap tracking worked, HR was accurate and so was BP readings so YMMV

[@alorro93]

Hows the battery life?

[@Zach-rw6jf]

Full 24 hours with 20% in the bank with always on display sounds like there's no worry of battery life lasting all day. I'd definitely be worried with the smaller 40mm battery though...

[@djjt100]

Let me know how you test the batteries during an all-day training with the location turned on, e.g. a trip to the mountains thanks

[@SWACBUZZ]

It looks like the bezels are bigger on the Watch 7. I have a Watch 6 and went to the store to look at the 7 and it looked like it had bigger bezels. I pre-ordered but I'm thinking about canceling.

[@RoamingThePNW]

I hope you didn't, the 7 is a huge upgrade. Finally it's fast and responsive! Took this long but hot damn finally!

[@nycprodigy485]

I just subed snd likef I'm looking forward to the full review

[@BfSkinnerPunk]

Heart rate accurate?...if not, those other health gimmick "scores" mean nothing.

[@blueocelotsrt4684]

I have measured my heart rate via watch and treadmill heart rate monitor and they were accurate by 1-2 bpm. They are accurate!

[@Carlitos_66]

This is like the 20th watch that they've made, why would the heart rate not be accurate?

[@MrSahlensguy]

​@@Carlitos_66Because...watches 1-19 were not

[@aryan-rj8ic]

Just checked using my BP machine and yes it's mad accurate

[@jaydawg3031]

​@@MrSahlensguy you saying that on the internet does not mean it's true.

[@djmute0155]

Beware! Went from 5 Pro to new 7 watch and now l'm completely unable to turn off health app related notifications. The options that used to be available to adjust are now completely missing so I'm forced to be distracted with annoying alerts such as Daily Activities Set etc. I can't turn DND on as I' miss the alerts I actually want. How are we going backwards Samsung!?

[@robotoxthepaperimagination]

so its praxticaly watch 6 44mm in difrent colors with better hardware and extra year of updates. i think il stay with my 6 still :D

[@user-ij8no5zw6u-]

Maybe HRV score is other standard, not RMSSD but SDNN? Then it shows bigger number. Could this be it? Most reviewers get the big number as well...

[@ronyahmed2234]

Subscribed❤

[@sebassebas1374]

Can you follow gpx routes in the 7 or is it still an exclusive feature of the Ultra?

[@19JustMike83]

What about battery life???? I hope it will stand for at least 2 days using smartwatch

[@bkakus]

Blood Pressure measure is available? The US model or other regions?

[@gelopza]

check the total burnt calories. I compared my samsung watch 5 to my previous fitbit and polar devices and total burnt calories was under reported by the watch 5 by atleast 30%.

[@RyansTechMedia]

Yep, working on this for an upcoming video.

[@brendanfogel4573]

I think the watch 7 looks better than the ultra

[@stephmorales146]

Hi Ryan! Love the video! I own a Watch 4 and the case seems to be the same style and size for this one. any idea if it'll fit they are definitely cheaper if I get a 4 case

[@JaziX5]

I'm not seeing any definitive reason to upgrade from my 6 Classic. I'll wait for next year's Watch 8 Classic.

[@CustodioMagaiza]

heart rate and music control so I always turn off GPS, NFC and everything else I don't need

[@9csvt9]

My Galaxy watch 4 has the same problem with sleep tracking.

[@jamesm568]

It's not bad as if you disable all that gimmicky health features on it as it will help extend the battery life. Should be able to get 3 days out of it.

[@Zach-rw6jf]

Samsung says it requires 7 nights wearing it to calibrate to you. Did you wear this for 7 nights or just 1 night for the review?

[@dehman6836]

Which one do you use?

[@KitPogi]

Wait, BP is available now here in the US?

[@mkFF4693]

when I was sleeping... at 00.00 my heart rate system suddenly became continuous... even though I had set it every 10 minutes... gws 6 classic 47mm...

[@jgkling855]

They should be identical. Maybe you compared it to the smaller watch size which has larger bezels in ratio to its screen size?

[@Adromijar]

wich one face you using i cant find my face library

[@bryanvincentlourenceebarvi5439]

Does the display have an adaptive refresh rate?

[@yasin6904]

What size did you get? 40 or 44mm

[@migxt2003]

Does the watch come with a preinstaled screen protector?

[@jaydub198422]

No

[@elenalomeli4364]

Hello, I am garmin lover but use galaxy watch for the voice memo features. I see you do to. Do you know if garmin is planning to add voice recording direclty with our a phone in any of its models? Battery life of galaxy watch frustrates me, when compared to the venu 3.

[@RyansTechMedia]

I'd be surprised if they did, but hypothetically if they did, it would be on a Venu series like Venu 4.

[@thewesvideo]

What is your "other watch" you mentioned?

[@RyansTechMedia]

Garmin Venu 2 Plus

[@Kampfpopcorn]

Is there a way to use Spotify on the watch itself? So is it possible to just connect the watch with my earbuds and go for a run without my phone? That would be crazy.. If not, is there any other watch that can do that?

[@Drishti-v2t]

It can do that

[@peterhogstrom1636]

Can you buy or install ''Watch faces'' on this like the Galaxy watch 47mm?

[@calm1047]

Ofcourse!

[@bora3.14]

Ryan , we do not have silver option for 40mm ? right

[@RyansTechMedia]

Correct, but the cream with the silver band looks like a good combo.

[@scottmac3539]

This worth upgrading from Watch 6 Classic to 7 Ultra?

[@marchewaSB]

i would choose the regular 7 because its basically the same but if you want to then do it its smoother

[@LokeshGyanchandani]

Do you recommend upgrading from watch 4?

[@RyansTechMedia]

I wouldn't have a problem with this choice. it makes sense.

[@LokeshGyanchandani]

@@RyansTechMedia Thanks for your reply! Most likely I am going for it

[@wolfgangtraxl812]

Is there a night mode in red colour on Watch7 ?

[@ishansharma5289]

Only in ultra model

[@sankalpbansal4]

should've tried gestures as well

[@lukastemberger]

@@jonathanngo7452 If you use it to trade it in with Samsung, you'll get the 7 for $89 and you'll get an extra free strap.

In the community most people have a charging routine, either early morning or evening for 15-20 minutes. And I never let it go under 20%.

@@r1pperuk It's easier to just put the watch on a charger for 15min every day while you shower or something. Instead of waiting 7 days for it to drain. It doesn't create a routine...
