While every other big creators are only doing vids on Apple watch ultra to gain attention...good to see that u took time & reviewed a Samsung watch 5 series in your style... Thanks for always being yourself mate.. Cheers!
Credit for the Bulgarian Split squats. My legs were burning watching you. Those moves are hellish. I love the Samsung galaxy watch 5. Very practical small with great strap. Like the minimum rotation on the screen.
Love the pixel 2 wallpaper! 🙂 Thanks for your work, really enjoy your videos!
Thank you for this review, I always enjoy them. Gonna wait though for your eventual review of the new Pixel watch. Gotta say, it looks pretty nice!
Nice video, btw hope that you hit 1 million subs soon😀.
Nice review David 👌. The watch is Fantastic
I recently purchased the Galaxy W5 44mm, how are you having a whooping 3days battery life? Amazing! I'm just getting day and a half!
This Is the best review I seen so far.
My Watch 5 has been great. I easily get two days of active use, using the sleep tracker. But I turn off the always on display.
Here to give you props on your kettlebell squat form!
Awesome video as always! I got a Pro and have been liking it so far !
Enjoy the watch David!
Very thorough, as always! Thanks.
Thank you!
FYI gw5pro scratches more then my ages old gears3 frontier which died last week. and first day with gw5pro and there's a deep scratch on the edge. but still loving it for the features it gives at the price point, would have op-ed for steel version in pro one if it was made.
Thanks for another fun and informative review, Mr. Sensitive Hedgehog 😉😁😂🤣
I have the rout feature on my GW4C but it's hidden on the Samsung health app on my phone you just have to click on excercises and then hiking and you'll get the option
I love it thanks always for doing this for us David and I hope you do Apple watch ⌚ too -be happy waiting for 1 millon subscribe video you deserve it 🖤🕊️
Thank you and doing Apple Watches too soon 🙏
You missed the target settings in workout...the watch counts your reps and sets for you... Like lunges, it will count for you... It helped me a lot in my workout
No "coffee...check" threw me off. Excellent video as usual.
Did you have to put on power saving to achieve the 4 days you got on that trip you forgot your charger? I have found previous versions of the Samsung watches to last no more than a day and have to charge my watch daily. Because of that, I never got to wear it to track my sleep. When I do achieve more than a day’s battery, it is very often because I put it to power saving mode that would have most sensors and notifications turned off.
When my hands are sweaty, can i use the digital bezel like i would use the bezel on the watch 4 classic? Can it be used under water like the bezel on the watch 4 classic? This is what i want to know, cause if it does, i'd buy the 5 pro.
Hello, do you intend to review the new galaxy watch 6? It would be very nice to have your analysis and if possible could you compare the results of gps and health data with the apple watch?
The watch 5 pro battery is amazing. Awesome review as always. I have the watch ultra for when I’m using my iPhone 14 pm and it’s pretty awesome too I just wish it was offered in a gun metal or black color as well.
My watch pro 5 ⏱️ Love it ❤ Great vlog Mr hairy 👱♂️
Interesting quirk regarding the blocked features, at least on the Galaxy Watch 4.
Since they swapped from Tizen to WearOS, you can sideload the apk for it onto the watch and unsupported phone to get the blocked features. Not ideal because you need to do some ADB stuff, but it's been working well with my Galaxy Watch 4 Classic and Surface Duo 2.
So you can actually get Route feature on GW4? Search on the internet didn't lead anywhere for the APK in question.
@@edgars53 Not sure about the "route" feature - haven't used it. The health features though, like blood pressure monitoring, have been working great. If the route feature is a sub feature of something else, it should be do-able with a similar process as the health features of you can find the apk for it.
@@Frostbain Thanks for clarification!
Great content. I have the watch4 44mm. I went from the active2, and what a difference. On a single charge I've been getting 40 hour's. I think that's great. I have a case protector and a glass screen protector on it so worries about beating it up. I'm also using a 5pro strap on it. Looks nice.
Which protector do you use?
Bro from where did you bought watch 5 pro strap
Are you going to tell me how I do a workout on my Galaxy watch 5 and able to see the workout on the watch when I'm done and transpose it to my phone I'm apparently having a problem in doing that can you help.... No videos seemed to actually discuss this process
Nice flex on that backyard bro! 😂
Nice Vlog David
Thanks for watching the video!
Thanks for that. I recently received my watch 5, and yes, all of the above are great. I really got it to replace my dying old ipod shuffle, and so I can use bluetooth buds instead of wired ones. I listen to audiobooks most of every day, cycling to work, shopping, housework etc, as well as at the gym. I am disappointed to find that I only get about 5 hours of battery time using this. I'm also disappointed that the charger plugs into my phone, using a significant amount of the phone's battery. Even using power saving mode, this doesn't improve much. Otherwise, it's great.
Light roast coffee? Not bad, good timing..
Bro. Nice haircut. 👏👏
Just got my 5. Out the box 70% went the day and turned stuff off etc. Went bed at 50% it was switched off when woke and had 11% when switched on. Hope it improves after a full charge
Did it get any better?
You should do a real world review of the Ember Mug 2 since you are a coffee lover lol. I really want one but cant pull the trigger on a $149 mug
How long does the battery last with GPS on (track recording)? Non pro 5 version.
Dont all Galaxy Watch 5s ship with WearOS 3.5 Vs 3 tho? Doesn't matter. Nice review! Great format.
Hi, nice video! Will you do a review regarding to the new Samsung galaxy watch 6 classic? Would love to see a video regarding to this watch 😊
Yep! Working on it soon!
I have that same umbrella, has LED lights in it.
I am really looking forward to more videos on laptops, tablets, chrome books. I am tired of phone review talks😂😂
I just bought a 5 my watch5 battery barely last one work day which is 13 hours. Can't wear at night due to having to charge it every night. It died at some point yesterday at work. Charged all night, up at 5:20 at 7:20 it already at 83%. It sucks!
Does anyone know if the watch will save the gps route of my runs without having to bring along my phone?
Hi sir.. How to find workout history on this watch?
I wait for your iP 14 pro review, David!
Coming next!
@@TheUnlockr it comes a real world test?! Awesome!🤩
The Samsung Galaxy watch 5 LTE does not support standalone Google maps. I took my bike for a ride without my phone and when I tried to connect to Google maps it asked me to connect to my phone. Defeats the purpose of an LTE. I returned it and I'm glad I did
You are brave! At present UA-cam is filled with series 8 or watch ultra vids and you are making Samsung galaxy watch vid. Good work. Brave work.
Both great watches If I may add 👍🏼.
The comments sound like this was a review of a watch. I’m still reviewing the gym scenes. 👀
Nice 👍
I jus ordered one for sale does it sync with an iPhone?
I love my blue watch 5! I got it for the battery improvments, faster charging, and due to the trade in deals in the US. One thing that I really hate salt this watch is the screen protectors. No matter if it's a perfect application, they start bubbling up within a month of use. You are better off with a slim case that goes around the watch.
Did you try the spigen screen protectors?
@@56462 that’s what I got
@@bigmaxcc they make good stuff imo
@@bigmaxcc does the same happen to ur screen protector
How long does it take for full charge?
Whats ur opinion about sepphire colour?
I've Samsung active 2 , one of the things always bugging me was my watch would start to recognize any exercises after 10 to 15 minutes of doing exercises so hopefully, Samsung new watch fixed that...I really like his review style..cool.
Question, with a LTE (4g) watch 5, would you need to be connected to your phone in order to make / receive call etc???
No
Morning
Looks good but lacks the GPS or health indicators accuracy of Apple watches.
I can understand why Galaxy watch owners like the rotating bezel, but I've had my Active 2 watch for a while now and I it's not a big deal to me.
Have you tried to go in the sauna with the watch? I wonder if it takes some heat?
Heat will damage it.
What is your wrist size sir ?
Undoubtedly, the square, rectangular format is the most suitable for a smartwatch, sincerely, I miss the era of the Galaxy Gear.
Do a video on galaxy watch 4 as well...
Search the channel next time: ua-cam.com/video/sLbLPLP-0aY/v-deo.html
Where can I find your Montblanc Summit 3 content? I'm unable to see it on this channel
They never sent one. I only got to see it briefly in person at an event. I might do a quick Instagram Reel on it on my instagram soon if you’re curious. instagram.com/theunlockr
@@TheUnlockr ahh dang
I really hoped I could get a proper run through of the wear OS 3 'AOSP' software before the pixel watch embargo lifted
Dam you and your quality video's making me want to upgrade my GW4
*shakes fist at sky
What’s the sleep and heart rate tracking like on this? I read it’s not that great?
It's actually pretty good.
❤❤❤
compare it with apple series 8
Are calories burned more accurate vs the apple watch?
Totally bummed that Samsung have killed the Classic line 😭
Also didn't realise the ECG feature will only work if paired with a Samsung phone! I currently have a Pixel 6, so that rules that feature out! Plus, the Pixel Watch doesn't appeal to me either! Oh the dilemma!
Thanks David for a thorough RWT. Cheers! 😎
Ps. You mean you were able to film this entire episode without a truck/train/car/bike/kids/dog/bird/wind/tram/laughter/coughing interrupting you?? 🤣😂
I use p6p and was able to find alternate apps to use ecg feature and it's pretty cool.
After seeing your sleeping status, it is confirmed that I will NEVER buy a smartwatch that can track my sleeping. Probably this is why you dislike noise, same here...
One thing that doesn’t work on my 4 is the camera app on the watch with any other phone than Samsung. With a Samsung you can use the watch as a viewfinder for the phone camera but you can’t do that with another phone. At least a pixel 6 in my use.
Well is because it's using the Samsung camera directly
@@footballtalk4857 Correct. I was just mentioning what is another thing that doesn’t work on android phone but does in Samsung
i have the watch 4 classic and the pixel 6 and the camera app works just fine for me, no problems
@@user-ez3my1nu2z you can use the watch as a viewfinder for the pixel camera?
@@lmondragon88 yes I'm able to use the watch 4 classic as a viewfinder with my pixel 6, have you installed the watches lastest updates? I can't understand why it's not working for you? I have to open the pixel camera first, then the watch camera connects. If you just try to connect through the watch only it will not connect. Give that a try!
The GPX file import works on the Pro because it's the 'Pro'. That's one of the 'Pro' features.
As always, great video. Somehow i missed some videos and came here to see a comparison or something with the Pixel Watch, not bad but I still feel these devices should be way cheaper and maybe less functions or a way to get the ones you really are going to use.
Liked as always Sir
There is cheaper options, just do some reading
@@gordobeck1845 thanks for your recommendation, and yes i know about several other devices from brandless smartwatches to big brands, but still having the same feeling because i have have about 5 or 6 different brands and models and ended up using few functions and many are even annoying, also smartwatches evolve so quick that became e-waste quicker than many other tech devices.
@Chemy. which ones have you used? Am looking myself, any recommendations?
@@gordobeck1845 from Umidigi I basically got all uwatch until the version 3s and GT, i liked the simple and useful functions but the quality was not good, i used the Apple watch 4 but it wasn't compatible with Android and was so expensive for what it offers, then the Samsung Galaxy Watch but again too pricey and several functions i didn't use and now i have the Ticwatch E3 which i got on sale for around 115 USD but several workout functions are still annoying because i use it to have notifications and reply to some, use it to pay, control media player, keep an eye on the health monitoring and having timers, i never use the assistant or the sport tracking that keep draining my battery and giving me useless notifications extremely often.
That's why I would like one which i can select what to have enabled and pay only for that (right now the E3 is around 150 USD which is for me, expensive), giving it more battery life (the E3 last for 1.5 days max), so if i can pay 80 USD max and getting just the functions I want, like Google Pay, media controls, se and reply to the notifications, HRM oxygen and other simple health monitor, having a battery that last a week at least, and finally it being waterproof and good to handle outdoors activities, i will be happy, but right now you have 40 or less bucks devices which are pretty cheap on price, features, support from the manufacturer and quality, and from that you jump to devices from 150
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!!
But, perhaps mine is Faulty, í sometimes have to çharge to full 100% up to 3 times a day? ( Galaxy watch 5, not Pro)
Do you have GPS/location turned of if so then that is the reason why you have to charge it so often , the GPS drains the battery a lot so it's better to turn it off if you're not using any tracking.
The other thing you can do is not use the Always-on Display because having the Display constantly on it will drain your battery too.
Forgot your signatory much loved comment? Coffee check! 👊👍😎😂
😂
Your title says swartwatch
Thumbnail says “swartwatch” 🙂
Now we know. They gave me 6 months of Fitbit with my pixel watch. I won't renew that's for sure...
I might be the only person who didn't liked the rotating bezel. Samsung should make them again, that touchy replacement isn't doing it for those rotational freaks 😄
If apple health app collect the data from Samsung watch 5?
Of course not
My watch 4 automatically track my workout .
Dainty wrist pride!
Where the iPhone 14 pro max video?
Battery Battery Battery need 48hrs with Heavy usage
Galaxy Watch 4 Classic does not last 14hrs :(
Will wait for Watch 6 to see if it has a bigger Battery 🔋
any one know how can I get it free
When you will make a real-world test with iPhone 14 Pro Max ?
IPhone 14 Pro coming today then Max shortly after
@@TheUnlockr Great news! I am checking your page everyday to see your real-day test. iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max are really controversial when we are talking about battery life. Many youtubers said that it is the same or nearly the same, but many said it is even worst than last year. You will make the final conclusion.
I got nothing
Dude, you are wearing your watch too low on your watch to get optimal readings. 2 fingers should to your watch
Does it connect with iOS?
Even if it can this is really for Android phones.
Too bad we could not make this the #1 comment as all potential buyers should be aware: ECG will only work if paired with a Samsung phone! It's the reason why I won't be buying the Galaxy 5 watch after doing the research today.
I say this in the video
I bet you that Samsung is tracking literally EVERYTHING we do in our lives! They know when we sleep, where we work, where we hang out, even when we go to the bathroom! Kinda scary and makes me question about getting one in the first place! Of course they probably already do with our smartphones but with this smartwatch, they know us intimately like our heart rate, weight, health, etc...
Sick thought indeed
What would they do with that information…?
I think you’re overthinking it.
I’m disappointed…. No background noise section? 😂
And so many people I've seen wear their watches they don't go past the carpal bone on the they wear it low there is no real accurate measurement when wearing like this
I keep my Apple Watch Ultra 🤓 Thank you for the test!
Thanks for watching!
Whatever.
I have both and I prefer the galaxy watch 5 pro for my workouts and health tracking and bmi tracker which is amazing. Both are great if you are using their respective phones to go with for all of the features.
Taking the shower with the watch is the best time to sanitize it...
Still no Google Assistant then?
Yes there is Google Assistant out the box the 4 series also has it
Already available.
Why can Garmin make a watch that lasts for months and years but apple and Samsung can't make one that last more than a day?
Simple... Wear os and processor
Garmin is also more of a fitness tracker with smart features
The Galaxy watch 5Pro is the most expensive Samsung watch I've ever purchased. To tell you the truth I've never dislike a wearable more that the watch 5pro. No rotating Bezel and it's not as classy looking as the watch 4 classic.
Mine's battery drops to 0 in one night without use
☕☑️
still looks like an over price not as good looking watch. The phone stays my watch. ;)
I own the Galaxy 4 watch. First thing I have to say is (GARBAGE)! Don't waste your money all these nice features that you can not use because battery life SUCKS. For you to make it through the day you have to turn everything off. Yesterday I went for a 6 hour bike ride using my ear bud's and the watch was Dead. For a sport watch don't waste your money . If you go for a swim in the pool and the watch doesn't work samsung will not warranty the watch. Check all the complaints on swimming 🏊 issues. Good Luck
