It might be worthwhile for you (and other people commenting) to take a look past Mr Horst’s results at other published Galaxy watch studies ( of which there are many), which typically involve far more participants. And as regards heart rate accuracy, I also have two chest worn HRM’s and found a much closer agreement between them and my Watch 5, than demonstrated in the video. A quick online search got me to the following four studies (the titles are in quotation marks). Galaxy Watch 4 Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) measurement showed a 97-98% correlation with the two reference devices. "Next-generation smart watches to estimate whole-body composition using bioimpedance analysis: accuracy and precision in a diverse, multiethnic sample - The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition" Galaxy Watch 5 ranked 2nd out of 11 consumer sleep trackers "Accuracy of 11 Wearable, Nearable, and Airable Consumer Sleep Trackers: Prospective Multicenter Validation Study - PubMed (nih.gov)" Study characterizing the performance of the Galaxy Watch 4 when measuring the estimated SpO2 during sleep. The accuracy of the GW4 complies with the FDA and ISO standards. "Performance evaluation of a wrist-worn reflectance pulse oximeter during sleep - Sleep Health: Journal of the National Sleep Foundation (sleephealthjournal.org)" The Samsung smartwatch provides acceptable HR, time-domain HRV, LF, and HF parameters during sleep time. In contrast, during the awake time, AVNN and HR show satisfactory accuracy, and the other HRV parameters have high errors.

I know some of these stats seem to be a bit inaccurate, but look at how accurtae they are as a whole. I mean if your like most runners and run 3-5 miles, a few times week, the distance will be within 0.1 miles of your milage ran, pretty great. Same for the HR tracking, most people use HR when doing steady state Zone 2 cardio, trying to stay within a certian area, these watches will achieve that.

This chart makes me think the galaxy watch is doing too much averaging in software. That would help explain the delay compared to the H10 and the fact that it misses short HR dips. The good news is that can be resolved in software updates. Then again, your correlation charts indicate why they're using so much software averaging. The GPS data is certainly interesting considering the phones share the same hardware so you would think the only difference might be some layout changes. I wouldn't think you would see this much of it difference in GPS performance. This makes me think the 7 is making some GPS compromises in software to improve battery life. It would be pretty unfortunate to find out the 7 derates performance in software just to make the Ultra stand out as the better device.

Also, on the sensor testing I would definitely redo this comparison in like 2 months to see what things look like with fully ironed out software. 🤷 Products like these are absolutely NOTORIOUS for coming in hot on the software development front right at the inital launch before ironing out the missed major issues with the first couple major software updates. But if things are still just as inconsistent a few months from now, then we sadly have ourselves something of a very legitimate problem. Although the fact that it already CAN function accurately & consistently outdoors (aka the hardest conditions for a light based sensor) that means the new sensor hardware itself IS good enough and it should be able to be fixed to work just as well indoors simply with software updates. 🤷

@@TheQuantifiedScientist Considering the outdoors during peak summer sun results (again, by FAAAAAAAR the hardest environment for any visible/IR light based sensor!), I'm more than fairly confident than the GW7/Ultra's brand new sensor suite legitimately does have the horses for courses on a hardware level. The inconsistencies only being found when indoors really just seem to just be a software optimization issue, not a deficient hardware capabilities one. 🤷 That said, how long it takes Samsung to actually fix these software optimization problems with the new sensor via updates though is a whole different kettle of fish. Here's hoping it's sooner rather than later! If they can fix these sensor inconsistencies though, Samsung will have a MASSIVE winner on their hands with just how INSANELY FAST & FAR AHEAD OF THE COMPETITION (even Apple!!!) the new 3nm Exynos W1000 is in therms of smartwatch SOC performance! ESPECIALLY when you consider the fact that it (Exynos W1000) &/or slightly tweaked derivatives of it (think GW6's slightly higher clocked W930 vs the GW4/5's OG W920) are likely to be used in the next ≈2-3x generations of Galaxy Watch, meaning NOW is the time to upgrade for peak longevity!

The notority and media presence of the Galaxy Watch Ultra (not to mention its absolutely HUUUUUUUGE profit margins) has helped SIGNIFICANTLY with Samsung actually putting in the post-launch legwork for this generation of WearOS hardware, when as you bring up they very much haven't always done so.

Oh yes, been waiting for this! The new BioActive sensor didn't seem to improve the results... A disappointment. As for the Ultra being better for GPS, I'm wondering if its larger battery means programming has been tuned to poll more frequently? The body impedance measurement... if true [it's not], 2.9%, you'd have very low testosterone levels, and over time become depressive, probably. I usually take 5 or 10 measurements in a row and calculate an average because they vary somewhat. They seem to be very sensitive to how the fingers are placed on the two button sensors, also tightening the strap, and placing the watch a bit higher up on the arm. When you do gym testing, please consider testing the rep counting, too. I wish Samsung released access to this for external apps. It used to be part of all Wear OS watches in Google Fit, until Samsung entered the scene. Unless there's review data out there, I believe Samsung will rest on their laurels for this particular feature in terms of where they allocate their development resources. Looking forward to the follow up.

Great video. Disappointed with the results for the two watches. What I look for in a watch is: 1. Android (not an Apple user) 2. 7 to 10-day battery life (so even if I was an Apple user, I wouldn't like to use Apple watches) 3. Great heart rate measurement and sleep tracking (don't care about GPS) 4. Form factor of a regular watch (round screen, big enough for my wrist - don't like smart bands or rings). It seems to me that, as of today, there are no options available in the market that fit all 4 criteria. Garmin Venu 3 is the closest, but even that is a bit too far from the top of sleep trackers for my taste.

So you just want a fitness tracker, no watch with WearOS is going to give you 7-10 days of battery life.

I'm 70 years old and heavily invested in the Samsung ecosystem (Galaxy Watch Ultra, S23 Ultra and Buds 3 Pro). I'm more concerned these days with monitoring my vitals than training for my next biathlon. This is a great video to let me know the accuracy of the Watch Ultra. Well done!

@TheQuantifiedScientist I own and use at the moment: 1. Apple Watch SE (2022). 2. Fitbit Sense 2. I want to buy a replacement watch for Fitbit Sense 2 to connect to my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. What choices I have ? I was thinking for Polar Ignite 3 or Google Pixel or Samsung Watch 7 ?

Welp, I guess I'm not regretting buying a used Watch 7 for 130EUR and a used iPhone XR for 105EUR half a year ago (and turned out I'm getting the new OS, too). Using it solely as a health tracker, don't care about the iPhone nor the smart watch features. Keeping the watch completely offline (other than when I want to check my data on the phone - then Bluetooth on for synching), raise for display on also turned off - still have to charge daily (battery health at 85%), but got used to. iPhone itself is extremely restrictive, can't block apps from WiFi use even with jailbreak, no firewalls available. Battery health is 82%, I keep it on airplane mode and battery saving, yet it discharges a couple days quicker than a 2014 Sony Xperia E3 (that's been running daily since 2014 with no battery changes) with 2G on and receiving a couple SMS daily. Battery life on iPhone is ridiculous - and I can't even delete system apps like on rooted Android to fix the background battery hogs. And I thought IPhone's more efficient programming language will beat Android's Java in efficiency - no such luck. Good thing I never planned to actually use it for anything other than health apps.

Hello, thank you for the video. That is certainly an accurate (and true) tech review. I am curious if it would be possible for you to compare the results of the GW7/GW7U against the previous generations (Watch4 series and 5 series) in the full review - with the results from the previous reviews, of course! Thank you in advance!

Wow, so disappointing. I own a PW1 which has performed brilliantly but I wanted a 2nd device. The previous time I tried a GW was the 5-series and that went back in under a week because the GPS accuracy was so incredibly bad. I thought for sure this would be the one but apparently not. Thanks for getting this out as quickly as you did, Rob.

Thanks a lot for this @Rob! It's still sad to see other watches like the Google Pixel Watch 2 and Huawei watches doing much better than the Galaxy watches even with an updated sensor. I hope this changes as the watch adapts to your workouts when the full review comes out or through updates. So far I'm sticking to my watch6 because I'm not convinced of that it's worth the upgrade. Cheers and grateful for your reviews 🙏🏽

I strictly use the watch 7 (previously 5) for sleep tracking and this makes me wonder if it's a software issue. Which although not good, suggests it could be improved on without new hardware.

Thanks for your super review. I'm quite sure the firmware is not mature yet. Till we don't see any update on the software, it is difficult to apprehend the results of new sensors with an unadapted software. So let's see in the future. Regarding body composition, I've a galaxy watch pro 5 that I compare with an inbody scale with their own BIA sensors and the watch consistently over estimate my body fat compared to the 8 electrodes scale (about 2 to 3 points more on the watch). Look forward to seeing more of your tests ! Vielen danke!
