Galaxy 7 just got updated. It can import routes file as well. Used it about a month with fold 6. 1,5 days battery with an hour running per day with gps on. Cant ask for more, it works and cheap. Actually what makes samsung wearable is great is samsung health app. It tracks everything, from your sleep, sport and calorie intake. It suggestion is also great! Im trying to lose weight and it helps greatly. In terms of watch, i believe there are much better option depends on your need, either sport based, design or else. But, if its about wearable ecosystem, samsung nails it! You only need 1 wearable and 1 app to solve everything. I just jumped off apple ecosystem, and i regret all those years when i found samsung health. It is best all rounder Ps: all are personal review as regular person doing regular sport

Great review! Lots of great information, thank you. Just one note going over the GPS map. While you were in the tunnels your GPS was not solidly locked on to you. It lost connection, And drew straight lines from the last recorded data point before you went in, and the first one recorded when you came out. That's why it looks smooth. 17:31

@thewearableist12 күн бұрын
Hi. Both watches have magnetic "pucks" that just attach to the back of thr watches rather than having to plug the cables into the watch. Then you connect thr other USB-C end to a charger. The bands on both can be changed to others but removing and installing on the Pixel Watch 3 can be a bit of a faff compared to the Galaxy Watch 7 (but once you've replaced it it's solid).

Hi! Galaxy Watch 7 does not have the facility to load a map for hiking onto it - it's on the Galaxy Watch Ultra. But you can still load a map on the Samsung Health App for hiking: Pick Hiking from Workouts > press 3 dots in top right corner > Routes > Import > pick your GPX or TCX route to import > then press on the imported route and you should see it now in the app. When our start hiking, press the bottom right map icon to view the map as you hike.

@thewearableist3 ай бұрын
Hi! With Google's Wear OS 5 in the Galaxy Watch Ultra, we now have one of the slickest operating systems (with probably the most smart features other than Apple's OS) for wearables in a sportswatch - previously the market was limited with Garmin, Polar and Suunto sportswatches that had their own OSs with very limited smart features but now with Wear OS 5 in Watch Ultra, there's a whole heap of smart capabilities like using apps (whatsapp, google maps, make calls using e-sim, messaging, sports apps that you'd use on your phone, etc.) in a watch that can do some multi-sports like triathlons, duathlons etc (Garmins, Polar, Suunto, etc. can't do that). Hope that helps.

i watched this review and asked myself one question: are the features in the ultra worth nearly 300 dollars in price difference between the two watches? my answer was no and on top of that I am a visual person. the watch 7 actually looks better to me. so 7 it is. Notwithstanding all of this, I do understand why someone would buy the Ultra. Particularly outdoor sport enthusiasts.

@thewearableist2 ай бұрын
@christophercarcamo4730 if you are doing multi-sport activities like Triathlon and want the 4G cellular capabilities with all the smartwatch features then it's the Galaxy Watch Ultra. But if you're not doing any triathlons, then think if the difference of 120 between them two is worth the extra day of battery life on the Galaxy Watch Ultra (plus the additional bulkiness compared to Watch 7). Me personally, if I wasn't doing triathlons, I wouldn't go for the Galaxy Watch Ultra. I'm going to post a video in a few days for the Garmin Venu 3 which has amazing battery life compared to both Galaxy Watch Ultra and Watch 7; and balances the smart and sports features well. Stay tuned 😉

Was elevation gain on galaxy watch accurate in hills?
@thewearableist3 ай бұрын
Hi! On the hike you see in the video, the Galaxy Watch Ultra's elevation gain, ascent and descent were largely similar to that on the Galaxy Watch 7 (difference of around 5-10 m on average). However, the Polar Grit X2 Pro, that I also used on this hike, the elevation gain was around 48 m higher than that on both the watches (but altitude measurements were similar) - which leads me to think that the reference points for elevation gain might be different across both brands. Hope this helps.

Galaxy watch 6 vs 7 for 100 bucks more?
@thewearableist3 ай бұрын
Hi! Saw a similar comment on my other video 😀 I've copied my thoughts below: hardware-wise the Watch 7 is similar to the Watch 6 except for 1 thing. Both have sapphire crystal glass on screen, dual band GPS antenna, IP68 water and dust resistance, 5 ATM water resistance (around 50 m water depth). The main difference (from hardware point of view) is the 3 nm process in the Watch 7 which is an upgrade over the 5 nm processor in the Watch 6 - so a bit smoother to whizz around the UI, quicker to open apps and slightly better in managing battery drain - but the 5 nm processor on the Watch 6 is still good IMO. The optical HR sensor is good on the Watch 7 - I haven't tested the Watch 6 so can't comment on it but the upgrade would not have been gigantic given 1 year difference. If you are want the best processor then Watch 7 is the one to go for but keep in mind the similarities I mentioned in hardware - still probably not worth the $100 price difference. Hope that helps 😉
