Good Deal?

Yes the galaxy watch has quick access to Samsung health available in oneui to measure body composition check the exercise intensity stress levels and the gw8 has antioxidant index. For me the most important are the sleep coaching and the exercise tracker šŸ‘šŸ”„

Talk to me about battery life!

Im also a 12-hour healthcare worker, switched over to Zflip 7 from my iPhone 15 Pro. I love the flip, it fits in my scrubs pockets so much better vs iPhone always trying to shimmy its way out every time I lean over or crouch down. After the initial setup, battery life is great, lasts me all day, eas

Sleep Tracking. Am I doing something wrong, or is this feature an actual joke?

I can tell you the GW8 sleep functions DO NOT WORK. Rest assured it's not you or wrist fitment/ tightness. It doesn't work. It's the software NOT the sensors for me.

Question and advice

The 7 series was the first time I got something below the top of the line because the Ultra was just so ugly. I was so excited to get the 8 classic until I saw it. I know people say it loo

Upgrading the 4. To what?

The Galaxy Watch 6 should be more than fine for you. I use my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic for simple sports tracking like jogging twice a week or basic home workouts, lots of AI stuff with Gemini, WhatsApp, Spotify, mobile payments, the heatlh functions, translations, or navigation with Google Maps… and

Akıllı Saat iƧin Ɩneri

Basit bir soru aslında. Samsung Telefon kullanıyorsan Samsung Watch önerebilirim. Huawei cihazın varsa Huawei Watch gt öneririm. Konu dediğin gibi ben saatleri Tam Akıllı Saat veya Yarım Akıllı Saat olarak ayırmayı mantıklı buluyorum. Huawei,Redmi,Xiaomi vb. saatler Yarım Akıllı saatlerken Samsung,

I understand, well for me i use the Samsung watch 8 and i will use the ring too and i will wear one or both at the same time, i guess that will make the sleep tracking more accurate too

Joined GW7 club

I love and daily my GW8 Classic, it's my favorite watch ever. However it would be false to say that OneUI 8 Watch is anywhere near Apples polish and attention to detail in watchOS. The health features between the two are close, with Samsung taking the lead in some aspects, but overall software is no
