      It's lasted me about 72 hours as of now, and I've been using battery saver mode. Hadn't taken a call or text off it. Have 13% battery left.
      Use the sleep tracker, tracks my steps and what not. All the basic stuff.
      I'd say it's good. Wayyyy better than Apples battery life.

      Lol, I was so confused.. The title says 5 but they are talking about 4....i just got the 5, fully charged it yesterday late afternoon and it's already down to 43% 😞
      I know nothing about sleep tracker.... There's sooo much to this watch lol, it's my first "smart watch", it was a bday gift from my son and his dad.... But being soooo close to Christmas, I just haven't had the time to learn everything about it.... I mostly wanted it for work, to listen to music and be able to text if needed without getting a hassle for "being on my phone" and I looove watches.
      I was thinking I'd charge it while I hop in the shower (not sure if it's waterproof yet, I think it is when I was looking into what one was best for me), that'll give it an hour to charge from start to finish when I'm getting ready.
      The only thing I was thinking was I find fast charge on my Galaxy S22 Ultra also means fast dying, so I changed it to slow charge and find I get more put of my battery that way. I wonder if I can turn off the fast charge. The pro for me was too big, I have small wrists and the 5 fits it perfectly, if not a tiny tiny big.... And I have to look into this sleep track thing lol

      i had awful battery life with the LTE version of the watch 4, and truly didn't understand what people were talking about like your comment. I switched to an iPhone and the apple watch series 7 LTE with much better life. Thing is, I happened across a lightly used watch 4 some time later without LTE for cheap and tried it out just for kicks. Battery life was great. There were other issues with the LTE version, where charging would cause it to overheat ridiculously quickly, even with the Samsung stock wireless charger. On LTE calls, the watch would overheat in under 8 minutes. None of these issues exist on the non-LTE version. Curious to see if people point out the differences in this generation. I've pre-ordered the watch 5 pro so we'll see!

    Just as a minor thing, RISC is not reduced in terms of "only core things" just like CISC isn't only "complex things". The idea is in RISC each instruction is simpler so you need different combinations of many combinations to do the same thing that CISC can do maybe one or two instructions. However RISC allows for more optimization because of how tightly any "work" can be packed by CPU vs CISC will always have longer and more CPU cycle instructions.

      Well, that’s not exactly correct. The difference is that in CISC the chip does a great deal of the complex work, and the compiler is fairly simple. With RISC, it’s the opposite. The compiler is complex and reduces the operations the chip needs to do, so the chip can be simple.

    Actually the Watch 4 has an option to warn you to get up and walk a little after a while sitting or not moving. It is a good reminder to make a break on work, take a coffee.
    If you can't go, you can select: "Not now" and will remember you a few minutes later or you can simply dismiss the message. If you stand up and walk a little, the watch 4 will pop up a beauty message like "Hey you did it! great" and it feels good. Even if you do a little late from the notification, it shows this message so you kinda always remember that you need to walk!

      Also, the Exynos in the watch 4/5 is more advanced than the new snapdragon w5 (and 5 plus even). Those use cortex a53 cores from 2012. Yep, 2012.
      The exynos uses a55, much better. It also has the same coprocessor as the snapdragon + chip (the cortex m5 iirc).
      Funnily enough, the pixel watch is rumoured to use an OLDER exynos :/
      And the best part is you can use pretty much every ‘Samsung exclusive’ feature on a non Samsung device, it’s android after all. (ECG and bp, plus third party camera control app…)

Furthermore, will ask you to start moving because you have been sitting/none movement for a while. Pretty easy fix actually, just silence notifications on the watch or disable tracking/gps on watch

    🤣 the standing discussion has me rolling. With my Galaxy watches I have gotten close to 2 days, but I also usually have all of my devices fairly dim. I've done this for so long that even on dim settings, the displays look bright to me. I only adjust the brightness when I'm outside or in harsh lighting conditions. This practice has helped the battery life of my watches, my Flip 4, and I now even do it with my laptop. This was a practice that I started due to a work computer giving me blinding headaches every day and I found out it was because the brightness was on 100% - I tested to see how low I could go on brightness without feeling like my eyes were straining to see.

    Perhaps a niche use case, but I'd really, really like to see Andrew's take on the Watch5 pro, particularly from the hiking and climbing perspective. As a climber and hiker myself, and also with a Garmin Venu 2, the Watch5 Pro looks like a truly compelling option and for me, Andrew seems like the guy on the team who the watch would be most targeted for, as he uses a lot of the "Garmin-esque" features such as the GPS tracking. I also agree that Wear OS watches definitely feel so much better than the Garmins, but Garmin is simply in a league of its own when it comes to activity and GPS tracking, something that I'm super excited to see Samsung have a go at toppling.
    Edit: On the Venu 2 battery life, I use my Venu 2 similarly to my previous Fossil Sport (with custom watch faces which draw more power, AOD, always on heart rate and pulse oximeter, sleep tracking, etc) and I got around 10 hours on the fossil sport. I can make it through about 2 days with the Venu 2, and if I turn off some features I can go much longer, as Andrew was saying.

I love the features but the screen wasn't better than the venu 2 plus and I needed a watch mainly for my fitness activities which have increased significantly this year. In the end, I chose the venu 2 plus because it had a speaker and could send and answer calls (once my phone is near) whilst also giving me that amazing garmin battery life that allows me to get through an entire day even when I only have 20% battery life remaining. That said, I am loyal to no brands. I would be willing to switch to the watch 5 pro if it could genuinely get me to 80hrs with 3 workouts and one 1hr run.

      I'm on the exact same boat. I have the Gear Sport and got a Watch 4 during Prime Day. I noticed it had similar battery life compared to my already old watch. I do really like the sleep tracking features and all the new stuff but was disappointed with the battery. I was able to return the watch 4 and preordered the 5. Hopefully the battery should be much better. For now I'm back to my old Gear Sport

  • @daniel1301tube

    Great discussion. Especially about the battery life. The battery life of the Watch 4 was the thing that kept me from buying it. Favourite was the Fenix 7, but they are quite expensive and less of a Smartwatch (currently have the Fenix 3 HR). Then I saw the Huawei Watch GT3 Pro, it's more a Smartwatch with a brilliant display and also proper battery life but lacked some core functions I wanted (mainly Spotify and Whatsapp). So I think I will give the Watch 5 Pro a shot.

Sure, it might be similar, but might be completely different. Our lifestyles are different, and so are our experiences with our devices.

Remember that after the first Galaxy Watch in 2017 and the two Watch Actives in 2019, the Watch3 in 2020 was the first to feature a rotating bezel. Last year was the only year Samsung announced a GW model with a digital and physical bezel in the same year. The GW4 isnt really a bad watch either so you can buy that or wait for the next maybe next year :))

    So in regards to the sitting and reminders to stand, I find its not bad because in my discussions with a chriopractor, that we all sit way too much which makes our leg muscles tight. So the advice would be to stand more however if that's not possible, the advice is just to move around once every 50 minutes to just change your posture and to alleviate some stress/pressure in your muscles that are caused due to sitting.
    On the note of the tech, the battery life being that short really sucks however I will say as someone who owns a fitbit that I rarely use the sleep tracking. Let's hope to see better battery life as I'm interested in getting a samsung watch as my next wearable.
