Kellen, noticed the whoop. What additional information does it give you that your Garmin watch cannot? I have a fenix 6 Sapphire that can track sleep and body battery, which seem similar to what the whoop offers?
@@miguelcruz2547 All very similar stuff. The Whoop is just a lighter more comfortable band. I also like how the app only focuses on recovery and body battery. But if you have a Fenix 6 and love it, there wouldn't be much reason for you to switch to Whoop. I've just been wearing my Fenix again because I started running again.
The band is not flexing for a reason. That is instead of making it thigh on your wrist, it pushes it down for better contact. The reason is mainly those new sensors and making them more accurate like body composition and ECG which is important.
I was most interested in the Always On display feature that you mentioned. That could be a big improvement for me, as the Watch 3 and predecessors either forced you to keep the screen on always, eating battery, or it forced me to activate thru a button press or crown rotation since motion was hard to use to activate the screen. an Always on display that shows the time would help a lot.
The watch 3 and its predecessors all had an Always on Display mode. From years of wearing my Gear S3 Frontier, I know for a fact that the AOD mode was present, so not sure what you're talking about here.
@@CHSISteve What I was referring to is the AOD similar to what is on my Samsung phones, which just pins black-and-white simple figures on the screen like the time constantly, rather than having the watch screen constantly activated and eating battery in the manner that you are referring to.
Yeah both are good. Most like the bezel cuz it feels more "classy" they say. But either or they all work great 👍 👌 Also I think the touch screen one is more smooth.
I can't wait. Preordered mine on the 11th from samsung. Still waiting for it sadly. Speaking of the devil, as soon as I said this, I got an notification that it shipped.
How to watch TH-cam on this watch ? Can we set up an Audio Notification on the Watch when its fully charged at 100% or a Notification on my Fold3 the watch is fully charged ? Also, will it give a Notification on the Watch when the Phone is fully charged Thanks
I too loved my Active 2 but it started having issues this week and now I have the Watch 4. I immediately changed out the band. I'm not sure what they were thinking with that band! I'm so glad that I can use my old bands, my old charger and my screen protectors on this new one!
Man that BMI sensor is game changing.my nutritionist jas a machine I bet office, but it is huge it can weight your muscle , how much water and muscle mass. Nice video
What does this watch do without being connected to the phone? It also tends to overheat and who wants to wear a watch that does that? I just bought one with the Ultra S22 phone deal and am going to return it.
Is it possible to disable the bezel so I don't go to the menu when I turn or rotate. I want the bezel even when turning not to go to the menu, I need to stay in front of the poinsters to use the tachymeter
Pre-purchased the galaxy watch 4 the other night. It'll be my first smart watch (normally I go with a $20 Walmart cheap watch lol) I do wish it had an equestrian mode though /: (all watches I have seen tend to count the horses steps as your own...) but having it connected for calls and with a GPS will make trail riding much safer. Highly interested in seeing if 3rd party bands will work with the watch and how accurate the maps and health calculations are.
So are there any Fitbit features on this watch? At Google IO they said that Fitbit added the daily goal to Wear OS 3. Is this the case in the Samsung though?
So, what I want to know is that can this watch be great for heart problems? You know, heart speeding or over reacting,or low heart beat? Or there is a better one? I wanted to buy samsung active 2
I bet there are lots of videos on YT that can answer that question. As for Samsung, S-Fit is built in. All your data will sync if you used it prior with your Samsung account.
That charger looks like trash. My og Galaxy watch has a magnetic stand, really hope I can use it with this watch because a dot on USB cable? Really? Why didn't they just make a type c version of the stand?
I'm currently using a a8 phone which is a bit old phone and am planning to buy the galaxy watch 4 classic 46mm but i am curious would it work normally like it would on other phones? If anyone know please comment down with answers! Thank you:)!!
I have a gear s 3 and I am getting this Samsung 4. I am replacing because is free thru my cell carrier. I did not replace it before because this old S 3 was too loaded that any of the other ones Galaxies could beat it. Even Samsung decided to remove some features to this S 3 to make more interesting the new ones. I was told the Galaxies Samsung pay needs connection to work while this S3 doesn't. I hope this Galaxy 4 is better than my Gear S 3. The battery charger is much more stylish in the Gear S3 and it is a fast charger at least my watch can be charged in minutes from 0% to 100%. Even the box looks much more elegant. Once I have the Galaxy 4 I will do a review too comparing my Gear S3 to this New one. That is a nice review. Thanks
Got one today and trying to workout how to setup it like to place a image as my clock if possible If i can get watsapp an fb messages Own buds also & trying to work out how to place music to play from watch
I can connect it to my phone's data and work from there, right? Also if I order it rn when would I expect it to come in, it tells me sep 17cant wait that long someone please let me know.
From Gear s2 to Gear s3 to Galaxy watch 46mm to Galaxy watch active 2 to now this one, gonna get soon during November when my contract ends, cant wait to get this, hope this has samsung internet so that i can listen to UCl matches at early 3 AM
The band is making me think twice about cancelling my preorder for the classic, its just a band but for this price..it should have been designed better, will be forced to buy a third party band, or maybe go with the galaxy watch 4 instead.
Tbh I think non-classic band is better. I just played with both models in the store, and I like the way you tuck the end of the band inside (like, beneath the bracelet) on the Watch4. I’m definitely going with the non-classic but you do you!
@@eirschu8973 Thanks for the info, as you have seen both in store, do you mind answering a few questions? I cancelled my preorder for the classic earlier as I'm really not sure which to go for, the rotating bezel is very tempting. How is the size compared to the classic? did you test the 40mm of the watch 4 or 44mm? Im leaning towards the 44mm, also how responsive is the screen compared to the rotating bezel on the classic?
Having issues with my new Watch 4 Classic. Previously has the Galaxy S3 Frontier and loved it. First; cannot link with Wear OS app, it just searches and never finds. It linked no problem with the Galaxy Wear app. Bluetooth is connected and watch works great. Second; I have a Facer account and cannot get the companion app on the phone since it wont connect with the Wear OS app. I've deleted the Wear OS and reinstalled it and no help. I have a couple watch faces that I've purchased and they wont transfer over since I can't get the companion app. I do know how to find the companion app and how to access the watch faces by changing the watch face and scrolling till I find the Facer logo and then select it but I am not able to get that far. Any help from anyone would be appreciated.
@ Droid Life: what is your wrist size and can you give the size of the watch in height ? I mean lug to lug? I'm worrying about the gape you're mentioning..
Just pre-ordered the classic 46mm with LTE. My first smart watch I've ever bought. I'm excited
Price?
@@YUTfan2 449 from best buy
Non classic is best I think ...becoz that classic is look like g-shock 🤗
@@YUTfan2 $430 on samsung with $50 instore credit
U have made right choice
What up, people!
Also, many noticed the setup lag. I had to reset it again and the 2nd setup had none. Also, the watch runs fine. It's fine, folks.

Why don’t you use smart things?
I don't understand something. Samsung is selling sport bands on their site for $40. Doesn't the watch come w one??

Talked minutes about the rotating bezel but didn't use it once. Nice overview ;D
These android tech channels don't do androids apparel justice compare to Apple tech reviewers. Do a little research and not guess stuff.
Exactly, can't agree more
Watch flossy Carter!!

Shows off the watch classic.
Doesnt use the spinning bezel.
What for? It spins. Big whoop.
@@A_Final_Hit to show you can navigate trough the menu with it 😉
The top button is your home button. The watch just told you that! Smh......

Do update the title to reflect that this is the classic variant.
Looking forward to your review of the regular Watch 4 👍🏽
I missed these kinda vids. Thanks
Looks great, now all they need to do is add ECG for non-Samsung phones and they will sell a lot more!
Can you have all the functionality with non-samsung phone but based on android?
I think so bc of the integration of Google services.
This looks like a killer watch, but I don't like that chunky bezel. I think I like the non-classic one better.
Yeah both are good. Most like the bezel cuz it feels more "classy" they say. But either or they all work great 👍 👌

So no plastic to take off the screen & the back? I just got mine & didn't have any... Makes me think it's been previously used
That watch F'n BEAUTIFUL... the rotating bezel makes it more of a MANS watch. Mine preordered with the forest green hybrid leather band

Did your watch come wirh a plastic film on it like most new phones? Mine came completely naked no plastic at all

Good review mate, can I ask what size you're wrists are? Mine are barely 6.5, i have the watch on preorder but worried that it may be too big.
How does the 4g(lte) work?
how's the setup on a Non samsung, preferably a pixel...

Thank you for saying about lugs of the watch. Now I know it's not for me. Have another watch like that and don't wear it because it fits crap.
may i ask which samsung phone did you use?
At the end did you mean "a lot of the stuff will only work on Samsung Phones"????? If so.. what the hell?????
Love the Video. Thanks for sharing. But since I have the Active 2 with LTE how do I transfer that phone number to the Classic 4 LTE?

My classic 46mm came unattached with the band in a separate box.
Very informative, Coach
Please, tell me if i can still use my 22mm bands on this Classic 46BT watch ?
Hey quick question. Can you watch videos on the watch ?
I have a wrist size of 160-165mm what size would you recommend for the classic ?
It's hilarious that people think this will somehow save Wear OS, or be any kind of real competition to the Apple Watch.
Galaxy Watch 3 had a feature for the always on display to stay on. I'm hoping this watch does.
Yes it does.
Wrong title. This is actually the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic
Anyone know if the straps from the Galaxy Watch 3 fit the Galaxy Watch 4 classic? I have a bunch for my 3 that's why. Thank you. Great review.
Is the watch band for the Samsung Galaxy 4 in the 44 mm size compatible with the prior two models (samsung galaxy active 2 and galaxy 3)? Thanks
Finaly a Reviewer with the 42mm Version. Could you please do a Batterielife Test.
Can you post the link to that strap your using?
