Hi guys. I have a Samsung galaxy note 7 and am thinking of getting a smartwatch. Any suggestions?
As far as I know, the GW 5 Pro has wonderful battery life (or that’s what I’ve heard), maybe someone could confirm or deny it. I have the Galaxy Watch 4 and it’s great, but it lags a little and the battery life after 1 year and 2 months more or less seems noticeably shorter than before (although I’ve got the overheated warning twice, so that may have affected it.), so I’d recommend getting a newer one.
Walked into Samsung store last week. Currently have a 5 Pro, and was looking at the trade in value for the watch. One of their product specialists was honest with me and said the 5 Pro is better, and to wait for another “Pro” model for trade in.
Better battery life, titanium body (which the 6 isnt), otherwise everything the Classic “6” has, the 5 Pro has as well (minus the physical rotating bezel).
The Gear S3 Frontier is still the best watch Samsung has made haha.
5 pro if you want amazing battery life and are ok with a chunky watch and no rotating bezel. I easily get 2.5 days on my 5 pro but could stretch it to 3.5. Get the 6 classic if you want decent battery, better design, thinner, and a rotating bezel. Honestly get the 6 classic.
Nothing will ever be better then then the classic 4 wheel.
I personally was not a big fan of the rotating bezels (owned an active 2) until I got a classic 4 (free with my phone). The watch looks a bit less like a sport device and doesn’t look weird when dressing a bit more formally (I’m a man).
I recently upgraded to the watch 6 classic 47mm because I wasn’t happy of the too small battery of the 4 classic (42mm). Only for this reason.
But I do think that the 5 pro is a very nice watch (purely personal taste), and some people seem to be saying that battery life is greater than on the watch 6 (large models).
Mixed bag - GW5Pro is epic in many ways - it’s titatnium, it has amazing battery and it looks pretty darn nice.
The GW6 Classic has a bigger screen and has the rotating bezel which makes navigation so much nicer - I also appeciate the raised section in the middle of the buttons to stop them getting whacked - but battery sucks imo and i’d prefer titatium as it’s stronger.
For me the ideal would be GW6 made of titatium and with a battery compariable or better than GW5Pro
Neither my GW6Classing or GW5Pro have lagged in anyway both are fluid (I find them more fluid than Apple Watches which I used previously before switching to android)
I’ve only started using samsung watches from GW5Pro so not sure how GW4 range was like.
I’ve had the 5 Pro with LTE for about 7 weeks now and it’s pretty damn amazing. I wear it most nights for sleep tracking and wear it on days I know I’ll be working out, which is usually circuit training, walking, hiking, and running. I can usually go three days on a charge, but like anything the more you use it the faster it will drain. I’ve gone on 8 mile hikes where it’s checking my heart rate near constantly and that with the GPS will take a toll. But I love the build and the materials, the sapphire crystal and titanium body mean I don’t need to baby it. I like the ability to measure body composition and I think the Samsung Health app is pretty amazing. It also charges surprisingly fast.
if you don’t have problem with money, i would go with the Serie 5 Pro, more battery, nice materials
If you have problem with money, Watch 4 Classic, ok battery, bezel and have the same features of all other watches
Watch 6 is the Watch 4 with nicer materials and a slightly better cpu and ram, slightly.
Battery life on the series 4 is meh but I got it for like 90 bucks on Amazon so I can’t really complain
