My take on this review. Some tests were not scientific and some were even unnecessary. For ex:- No one is going to use the watch to measure temp of a soda can. This may be unintentional, but the review seemed very pessimistic. Would be then good to include what did you expect from the watch? Also the reviewer seems tired.
If the temp sensor is infrared, then it won't be precise on shiny surfaces. That's why it's closer to the other thermometer on non reflective surfaces.
@@Fabbyyybecause it gathers the data in a different way.. a thermometer is cheap but it doesn't fit in a watch. You compromise functionality of anything when shrinking size and form
Um isn't that a skin temperature sensor so wouldn't it be recording ur body temp not the temp of the surrounding. The water maybe be 59 degrees but the watch is telling ur body temp is 71 not the water
I wish that you had tested the water temperature measurement against the Apple Watch Ultra, which advertises that it can measure water temperature, mainly for swimming.
Apple only really advertises the temperature measurement for diving, not swimming tho. At least based on Apples (and Samsungs) reputation with their accuracy with their sensors, I kinda would bet that Apple does a much better job here... But yeah, would've been nice to see a comparison.
True. Even their advertising isn't always cut and dry when you read the details and find it's hyper specific movements under equally unique conditions lol.
The verge not biased at all... I use both Apple and Samsung and if you're going to compare the two, you have to at least be fair and thorough with your tests.
I like this format. 9 minutes to get through the point for consumers and not use half the time to read through specs and how great it is on paper. I noticed the scrolling and navigation on the watch has a slight lag and not very responsive. Hopefully, updates will address this.
It probably obably takes a few minutes to adjust to a major temp change to accurately tell you ambient temp...other watches with this feature are the same (Tissot, etc)
If you place any thermometer into the place it needs to measure, it needs some time to measure that temperature. Don't expect it to work in 2 seconds 😅
This is more like a rant than a review tbh. I'm halfway through it and I don't even know what it can do, like how the notification works or looks, how long does the battery last, how does it feel wearing it, how's the sleep tracking, etc. The first half is about how it is mildly inconvenience to use with other Android phones and how the temperature sensor is not accurate (although I think they did it wrong, like people said, reflective surfaces and all. And that's why the book temperature and coffee temperature is close enough).
I just upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy watch 46mm and loved the battery life on it and hopefully I get a close to the battery life I still get with it after 4 years
My Galaxy watch 5 is paired to my Pixel 7 and it has the Google Camera App installed and works well. Can capture picture and video, start - stop - zoom, etc. Not sure if the Samsung Camera App feature that is said to work solely with Samsung phones.. but suffice to say there is a wear os camera app that works for Google Pixels paired to Galaxy Watches with Wear OS.
I upgraded from my Watchb4 Classic mainly for charging speeds! I wanted the Watch 5 Pro, but they lost me when it didn't have the rotating bezel. It just took me an hour to charge my Watch 6 Classic! I got it last night in the mail and it was at 44% battery? I slept with it, and even went to my doctor's office and I still had 20%! Huge improvement right off the bat for me! Watch 4 Classic, I had to charge for 2-3 hours everyday
Snap. Same I had the watch 4 got the watch 6 classic from watch 4. The watch is useful for the most part. Battery was awful on the first day and appears to be lasting longer.
Enjoyable review but too much focus on that silly temp sensor which trivialized the watch and missed a few improvements this year incl 2k nits brightness for outdoor viewing
The GW6 should have been last year's watch. They literally lost a whole year wasting time on the sleep tracking and temp sensor that don't even work. I'm personally waiting for next years to come out because this watch isn't it. If next year's watch is a bust, I'm switching to Apple
It is not good enough for me to replace the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro . The rotation bezel is cool and so a more brighter screen but the downgraded battery life and resilience is a no go to me. Will wait for a possible Galaxy Watch 7 Pro .
I got my GW6 classic in the mail Monday. I can’t stop looking at it. It’s the most beautiful smart watch I have ever had. I have an Apple Watch also and there is no comparisons. The GW6 Classic is amazing. The health features are great.
@@cosemdesiatsedemi have both and while the sensors on the apple watch are a tad bit more accurate, I still prefer the galaxy watches for the looks and the software. So it's just a personal preference!
I have the watch 5 pro and watch 6 classic. I can tell you that yes you can get three days out of the watch 5 pro but the 6 classic is gorgeous. So I am going to keep the 6 and get rid of the 5 pro. Very hard decision.
Is the watch supposed to be able to measure the temperature of a soda, probably not. So I dont see the relevance in having 2 minutes of this video talking about doing something it's not supposed to do, maybe stay to measuring body temp.
This review is more biased and silly which is not upto the verge standard, this is misleading. Such a poor writing and spits pure hatred towards Android wearables.
I do not know what is wrong with sound , I do not know it's my headset is bad or loud music is the reason or your mic , but sound is not clear for me 🤷♂
People be sure to never over charge yoir battery above 70% and dont let it go below 30% this increases your battery cycle span enormous. I still have my Samsung galaxy 2 watch up and running smoothly after 6 or so years. Amd the battery life is still amazing
Great review, as always The verge doesn't disappoint me. From other reviews done by scientific specialist it turns out that sleep and other metrics are still no good on the Watch 6 May be an update could improve or resolve how the sensors are used but for the price I'm still not comfortable to buy it.
Maybe it's because I don't use fitness tracking at all but I've never had my Galaxy Watch 4 Classic end the day with less than 50% battery and I use the always on screen. I don't really see the point in upgrading when this watch looks basically the same but with better battery life but I don't need better battery life.
Since the Galaxy watch is not 100% compatible with Android phones, it is not 100% compatible with me. Thanks for that in the review. It seems as though there is no satisfaction in the Wear OS arena. I kinda wish I liked Apple. But I don't.
very good review. I just went from a Watch 4 to 6. On the positive....not too different. We will see in the coming months. Also moved from a s22 Ultra to Fold 5. I am second guessing going with hte fold....but it is what it is...
@@lenacheney, It feels too fragile for me. I rather have the s23 Ultra. I will probably go back the S2X - Ultra line again. the fold was a bit of a novelty for me. It was worth a shot...Maybe I can give it to my wife....
I have a OnePlus phone and wanted to get a smartwatch. I was thinking of getting the OnePlus Watch 2 but since Samsung announced Galaxy Watch 7, the Galaxy Watch 6 is now almost the same price as the OnePlus Watch 2. So, which one would be better, OnePlus Watch 2 or Galaxy Watch 6? Or should I spend a few bucks more and get a Pixel Watch instead? Thanks in advance.
I liked your review. So many of them are fast talkers - can't keep up - and don't address a casual user (me). Does this watch have Fall Detection? I just returned a new Garmin Venu Sq2 because their idea of safety and mine are two different things. The ER call contacts does not work if you're inside house or just gardening. It only works for specific activities that you choose ... sigh. If I fall over my cat it will not do anything. Thanks for the video.
I'm still angry at Samsung since my Galaxy Watch 4 got bricked because of their broken software update, and they refuse to fix the watch saying it's out of warranty.
Made the I've been using iPhone & apple watch since their release. Now using s23 ultra. I'm looking for a samsung watch. Looking at both 6 classic and the 5 pro. Any advice? Realistically will the 6 last a full day & night?
Doesn't it measure the temperature of your skin? Instead of the environment, which you did to falsely discredit its feature? Edit: who thought of that skit?
I haven't had one since the Mystic Bronze stuff. 😅 And that one tries to tellme my bpm is 200+ when it is off my arm and in my pocket. So I am REALLY hoping that the new ones fix that becuase I genuinely have heart and sleep issues and think the tracking would be helpful. 😅
HI DEAR, BUT AT FIRST WHEN YOU PUT UR HAND TO THE WATER THE WATCH IS ON YOUR WRIST!.. WATCH ALSO RECEIVES YOUR SKIN TEMPERATURE IN THE SAME TIME SO PLEASE WEAR OUT IT AND TRAY AGAIN! :) GREETINGS
How did you think it would not measure your skin temp amd the water temp together. Take the watch off and measure the water by pointing the sensor at the water surface. 🙄
I think it's funny how much you disregard the updates between the 5 and the 6 and make it sound like the apple watch changes oh-so-much every generation. Ridiculous
Love your video great job on testing the features on the watch I really enjoyed watching your video and it's great to finally know there is someone else out there who also wears 2 watches at the same time I also wear a Samsung and Apple watch at the same time also sometimes switch out the Samsung for a Pixel Watch 😊
While everyone seems intent on pointing out the temperature testing section -- which even if it was done incorrectly doesn't really matter as I doubt anyone actually uses it -- I can't get over how many apps are required for these watches and the fact that you can't get full functionality from it unless you have a Samsung phone. For all the talk about "choice" amongst Android fans who scoff at Apple's walled garden, the Galaxy watches don't have a problem forcing you to buy a Samsung phone in order to use all of its bells and whistles.
I'm looking for something to replace my Fitbit Versa2. I purchased the Versa 4 and was so disappointed with the obvious downgrade of a supposedly upgraded watch. I have been a loyal customer of Fitbit for years, but their lack of commitment to customer satisfaction is driving me, and others, away. Can someone tell me if it is worth switching over to a Samsung watch. And if so, what do you recommend?I am a Samsung phone and tablet user. Thanks.
It' takes 3 days for the 6 classic to get use to how you use it plus if you don't need everything switched on then you'll get as i am about 2 half days before charging again your welcome😅
@@chris993cross can't really say battery life is bad until they had the device on them for a few days! the battery life and usage also changes person to person, and I got the 43mm 6 classic which is only 300 mAh and it's lasted pretty long for me and my use cases!
Same! That year, the US didn't release the black model when it first came out and so I bought a black one from Singapore and maybe it was the Exynos processor that year, but that phone had 0 lag! Even when I got the Note10+ 5G, I still had a little lag! And maybe again it was Exynos, but my LTE data was significantly faster than previous phones! Note9 was great
This feels like a video made JUST to complain. The temperature thing is designed to check your temperature, not the temperature of anything you press it up against.
Should have used the temperature sensor to measure your skin temperature instead of random things, because you know... that's what it was designed to do.
A huge disappointment. They are far from being accurate, let's say in hr and sleep track, and if your hr isn't accurate, all the other features' results won't be as accurate. I've been waiting for 2 years for a decent Galaxy watch, something good, if not better than the Apple watch, which is one of THE best with hr. I've read a few stories about the Apple watch saving lives. No one can trust the Galaxy watch to save one's life, I don't get why Samsung can't up their game, compare to its competitors if not up their competitors. I was counting on the 47mm watch. I'm with Samsung since its first Galaxy S1. I love Samsung but with their watches, it feels like they fool its costumers and it's a huge huge huge disappointment. Here's to yet another year of waiting for a GOOD watch.
When I get my vitals checked at the doctor's, my HR is usually always the same as the finger reader they hook up to me, sometimes just one or two numbers off.
The watch just came out. They might come out with some updates later that could improve some of the problems. Some, but not all. That's why never buy new tech day 1. I just wait for the reviews and shop around.
I have the Watch4 classic and other than better battery and that useless thermometer I don't see any reason to upgrade. I was planning to upgrade but after watching this seems pointless.
Sooo, does that thermo sensor get you hot and bothered, or just bothered?
Neither.
Also, I don't use google Wallet. Never have all your eggs in one basket.
I guess it could tell you if you have a fever or not 😅
My take on this review. Some tests were not scientific and some were even unnecessary. For ex:- No one is going to use the watch to measure temp of a soda can.
This may be unintentional, but the review seemed very pessimistic. Would be then good to include what did you expect from the watch?

Very bothered. Very gimmicky and a complete waste. Skin temperature would have made more sense.
If the temp sensor is infrared, then it won't be precise on shiny surfaces. That's why it's closer to the other thermometer on non reflective surfaces.
The Verge's reviews lack quality. The tests in the video were pointless especially the temperature one. It wasn't done properly
The temp is also on gw5
An aluminum soda can will have lower emissivity, that's why the sensor gave a lower temperature.
Really? That's not how thermometers work. They don't tell temperature immediately.
A cheap 6 dollar thermometer from Amazon can measure the temp in 2 seconds. Why can't the watch?
@@Fabbyyybecause it gathers the data in a different way.. a thermometer is cheap but it doesn't fit in a watch. You compromise functionality of anything when shrinking size and form

It seems like it pains her to do this review
noticing that, she seems really snarky. Kind of negative.
Echo that! ummm, Is the temperature sensor not meant to measure your body temperature?
The temperature test is not correct and misrepresents the watch - this is coming from a diehard Apple Watch user with no intention to switch
Why do you have to say you are an Apple Watch user to put your point across? 😂😂😂.
Probably means you are lying!🤥

Turn off all the system vibrations and change the animation speed to 0.5. The battery lasts longer and becomes so smooth and fast

The watch just came out. They might come out with some updates later that could improve some of the problems. Some, but not all. That's why never buy new tech day 1. I just wait for the reviews and shop around.
whats the size of your 6 Classic?
2:58 ECG not EKG
They are the exact same thing EKG is from German spelling, ECG is English spelling
@@yoonkung got it
Actually I don't mind that much about the tem sensor...
I have the Watch4 classic and other than better battery and that useless thermometer I don't see any reason to upgrade. I was planning to upgrade but after watching this seems pointless.
If the temperature sensor is actually acute its got a use if you have kids check the temperature of a bath / food well enything really 😊
