Thanks for the rigorous evaluation! I think it’s important that there are public scientific evaluations like this because they incentivize companies to pay more attention to the accuracy of their measurements.
Rob, your videos are always so informative and helpful. I go to your channel for any tech wear because I know your testing and explanations will be above all the rest. Thanks man.
@ntifiedScientist Is the time scale on the x-axis for spinning really in minutes:seconds? I'm looking at the woman's heart rate and it goes from about 100 to 180 and back about 4 times in less than 30 seconds? I don't understand how a heart rate can drop from almost 180 to near 100 just in a few seconds even when a person is resting. (edit. I figured it must mean time of day, rather than elapsed time so it's minutes not seconds which would make more sense)
Have you considered the possibility of also testing the accuracy of bioimpedance or electrocardiogram on watches that have this function? It would be important to know whether the results are really consistent.
Love the comprehensive review Rob! I hate that the Apple Watch is leagues beyond the Samsung Galaxy watch and other android watches as I am a Galaxy user. I really hope these videos are taken seriously by android OS watch manufacturers to make sure we get the same quality for the price we pay because its almost on par. Thanks for keeping us well informed! Much love 😁❤
I used to be a Galaxy Watch user but cared about the accuracy of the sensors so I moved to a Garmin Venu 2 a couple of years ago and am so happy I did. Though QS rates Apple better then Garmin on sleep tracking Garmin is on par with all other sensors and Garmin is Nikes ahead of Apple with what they actually do with the data. Plus the Garmin app is so much better than the Apple Health app (and Galaxy). It's not as good as Galaxy or Apple with smart features but it includes the main things you want with incredible battery life. Check it out.
I agree. The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is rubbish at sleep tracking: it typically tells me I have slept for 11 hours 15 mins when I turned the lights out at 2am and woke at 7am. So I just got an Apple Watch 8 (I have an old iPhone as well as a Galaxy). It too tells me I was asleep when I was awake, & is annoying in different ways: but still learning how to use it.
excellent as always, Rob! thanks for taking the time to do this. I suffer with panic attacks and sometimes it leads to my heart racing, so it's great to know that I can have an accurate reading on my wrist, it puts my mind at ease. Thanks again!
Can you please let me know how big is your apple health app data? I am afraid that mine will become super huge I bought it and had no idea that apple stores that data on your phone and your iCloud
This was unbelievably informative! are you by any chance going to be testing Garmin Venu 3? I've heard good things from other watch reviewers but of course no one does such extensive testing like you do. So i'm interested in the data you gather from the the Garmin Venu 3
I’m wondering if the upgrade for the health data is from the software or the hardware. It might be interesting to test those generations with latest watchOS😊
Rob, please put the Garmin Vivoactive 5 and Venu 3 on your list...these offer the best combination of Heart/Sleep/GPS accuracy along with great battery life and affordability...for the Android user.
Hi! Yes, these are on my list! Like I said, Garmin does not inform me about these watches before release, so I am much later than other reviewers unfortunately... Maybe someday!
Been a long-time Galaxy customer and was kind of up in the air about whether to switch to Apple. But your review made my decision much easier. Thank you.
Never miss any of your Videos. Loads of Relevant information.I have an Apple Watch SE2, got it based on your review.Really hope we have more reviewers like you, rather than ones reading out of Spec sheets.Cheers
Very nice review. You highlight how difficult accurate sleep tracking is, I think we should be thankful that it is as good as it is. One request: please alter the sound effect used for the star rating, as it sounds very similar to a swooping magpie and I nearly suffered a cardiac arrest on my walk here in Melbourne.
Hi Rob, I really appreciate all the information you shared-it's been incredibly helpful. I've been actively seeking insights into the accuracy and reliability of VO2 max estimations performed by the Apple Watch. Most of my running buddies use Garmin so they'd also really appreciate a comparison. I'd be amazing to see this! Thank you!
Thanks for your amazing work in helping us make informed choices in our times of marketing and consumerism. Hope to see soon some video of your tips on how to use biometrics to improve our lives
Please review the Huawei watch D 🙏 It also measures blood pressure 🤯 I know the sleep algorithm is not good in Huawei products due to your videos (thanks BTW), but I wanna see if the accurate heart measurements also apply to this new Watch
I second this since an AWSE plus Athlytic or bevel app would be a better alternative to the whoop in price and data recording. Would you have to do all the tests again or just export your recorded data ? Thanks for the research is amazing
Your videos are very informative. I want to buy a smartwatch (compatible with android) ... to help me track my sleep(mainly) and overall health. I am thinking on getting the Venu 3 or Pixel Watch 2. Will you make a review on them soon? Or do you have a better suggestion in the 400 Euro price? Thank you.
Thank you for all the videos. Must be quite time-consuming while doing your postdoctoral research. Any chance to test fitbit charge 6 or Garmin venu 3 soon ? 🙏🙏
I use SleepWatch I feel it’s more accurate and I much prefer the layout of information. I agree apple needs to focus more on how they present the health data for sure.
I have made my own little tests. I have a situation where I have to sleep for 7 hours and then wake up move spots and then I am able to sleep for another hour. Apple has a hard time tracking that one hour of sleep from 7 to 8 Fitbit however doesn’t have issues at all.
Hey Rob! I always make my purchase decisions based off of your videos when it comes to wearable tech. Great video, per usual! Could you also please test the Ultrahuman Ring Air for its bio markers?
Rob, you're my most trusted authority on these metrics so thank you. Regarding the new reference EEG device if it's confusing awake with the other sleep stages this would also contaminate the data for those stages as well right ? For example, the EEG device might be incorrectly assigning more REM sleep from awake cycles which degrades the correlation with the Apple Watch for REM ? Maybe we need a separate video comparing the new EEG device with a reference polysomnography so we can at least do some statistical adjustments.
I've noticed that you're using a nylon wristband with the AW. Couldn't it be one of the reasons the AW is so reliable? It could be interesting to see if the nylon band positively impacts, for example, the tracking of Garmin Fenix.
Nice work as ever, as an aside, when you asked Siri to set the timer for 5 minutes, my AW series 6 was listening in and set the timer faster than either of your subjects. ... go figure.
The Pixel watch 2 has 25 times more LEDs compared to pixel watch 1. It would be fantastic if you could do a review of the new watch! Thank you for your efforts.
Hey Rob, I really love this video but as a data oriented CS student i can really tell you that you need to polish the presentations(Tables, Graphs etc.[ data is outstanding ] ) in order for the understanding of general audience and for growth of your channel. what i am telling is that simplify and orient graphs towards Broad audience. if i am not in middle of my semester i would have send you the data. Love, Syam
@thequantifiedScientist Great review! Love your scientific approach to device testing and reviewing! Could you please do a review of body fat tracking devices (Aura, Dexa scan, Galaxy watchs, smart weighing balances etc) and inform us about their accuracy compared to scientific gold standards? I've been on the look out for one for a while but don't know what is a reliable device for body fat goal setting and tracking.
You probably won’t see this but I just came across your channel and I love it. I please request you to review the ultrahuman ring air. PLEASE they are the closest competitor to oura ring and they don’t have a subscription model. Which I love.
This is just awesome, excellent result tests on the series 9 Apple Watch. Thanks a lot for it. Will wait for your tests on the just announce and upcoming Polar Vantage V3 to have my personal purchase decision though.
Please post venu 3 finally, im dying waiting for this one :) also if possible, can You add little mention of forerunner 265 sleep tracking in fvenu video if You testing FR265? or will be there FR265 separate test? im just on decision between these two, and i think a lot of people have the same dilemma. Also i know venu have naps, but i care more about just overnight sleep trakcing performance, so, yes, please help lot of us between these two :)
Hi! I actually already recorded one on the FR265 a while ago, but I never had time to edit it... Not sure if it is still worth doing now. And yes, already did some testing with Venu 3, unfortunately Garmin does not inform me about watches before release, nor do they send them to me before. So I cannot plan them and they get less priority...
Eagerly waiting for Venu 3 review too. Especially, sleep test, since my Huawei is so bad at it and it doesn't seem that they will bother to fix it anytime soon.
Have you or do you use a sleep app as well? I use auto sleep and feel it better represents my awake time (Apple Watch 6 & 9) is this something you’d look at testing to see how they compare to just apple sleep? Great work as always
Hi Rob, I really appreciate the scientific approach you take to reviewing health-tracking devices. I saw that you briefly mentioned Withings. Is there any chance you'll be reviewing the new Scanwatch 2 in one of your future videos? Thanks! Great video as always.
Please do a video testing Athlytic to Oura and Whoop apps. I love my Apple Watch and hoping it is pretty accurate without buying another device. Thanks!
Hallo Rob, do you think there is a difference in sleep tracking capabilities between Apple Watch 5 and Series 9, with both having the newest WatchOS installed? Is there a difference and is its worth buying a new model? Also, which app is the best? You said in another video that the whoop and also Oura Ring apps are among the best (if I remember correctly), because what Apple offers in terms of app is only the health app which is not great. I seems that the whoop app seems the best, since you can actually track how different factors (like drinking alcohol at dinner before) change your sleep.. right? What do you think? I think only with the Apple Watch 5 I don't get very far... Whats your opinion? Or is the Apple Watch with some app a great combination? Read somewhere else that the SleepWatch app might be a good options? Thank you for all your hard work!
Hey Rob, good job as usual and appreciate your effort on making these videos! For SpO2 measurement, why don't you compare the data with a FDA-approved pluse oximeter? Also, I think if you rest your arm properly without motion, the Apple Watch will give you the most accurate SpO2 measurement. Just my two cents.
Can you share spreadsheet of best watches by every category? Would love to see one, so it can help people compare watches that they are looking to buy and choose the right one for them.
Great analysis, it seems you are an Rthusiast 😉. I too have a lot of love for the R programming language. I'd really appreciate it if you could share the analysis report (if you have it in a Quarto or Rmarkdown file), as I would love to learn from your coding steps that generate these informative graphs and statistical tests. Cheers brother.
Could you do an updated whoop strap test. Would be curious to see if they've tweaked some stuff since your last video. Sleep seems vastly different than my Apple Watch 8 so I assume based on this video that whoop is not a very accurate sleep monitor. thanks
Hi Rob, please 1 question: How much inaccurate is in your opinion AWU2 in HRV tracking? I saw your video in which you had shown that AW detects some false values. That is a problem for recovery prediction. It is not convinient to search and manually delete the false values. Do you think that Garmin HRV tracking is significantly better, especially during night while sleeping? Thanks for your answer Honza
Do you plan to make a video about oura ring competitors like Ringconn or Ultrahuman Ring air? Many people would be interested, as there is no subscription fee on those. Thanks for the great work you've been doing so far!
Well, lets see what the Google Pixel Watch #2 compares. #1 seemed to do allright, so maybe #2 will do better. Maybe not. Hopefully he'll review it soon-ish.
Testing it now :-). Unfortunately I am not on Garmin's list to get these watches early, so it always takes me much more time than the other reviewers.😅

Can you share spreadsheet of best watches by every category? Would love to see one, so it can help people compare watches that they are looking to buy and choose the right one for them.
It’s crazy just how good the Apple Watch is for weight lifting heart rate tracking vs the competition!
Great analysis, it seems you are an Rthusiast 😉. I too have a lot of love for the R programming language. I'd really appreciate it if you could share the analysis report (if you have it in a Quarto or Rmarkdown file), as I would love to learn from your coding steps that generate these informative graphs and statistical tests. Cheers brother.
Excellent job, as always!
Do you have plans to review the new Garmin Venu 3?
Yes, already did some tests on myself, it is now with Theresa :-)
@@TheQuantifiedScientistawesome! Looking forward
Could you do an updated whoop strap test. Would be curious to see if they've tweaked some stuff since your last video. Sleep seems vastly different than my Apple Watch 8 so I assume based on this video that whoop is not a very accurate sleep monitor. thanks
Hi Rob, please 1 question:
How much inaccurate is in your opinion AWU2 in HRV tracking? I saw your video in which you had shown that AW detects some false values. That is a problem for recovery prediction. It is not convinient to search and manually delete the false values.
Do you think that Garmin HRV tracking is significantly better, especially during night while sleeping?
Thanks for your answer

Do you plan to make a video about oura ring competitors like Ringconn or Ultrahuman Ring air? Many people would be interested, as there is no subscription fee on those. Thanks for the great work you've been doing so far!
Awesome videos. Been watching a few of them already and gonna go through more. Any chance you can do a review on Ultrahuman ring Air?
Fantastic video! Obvious question: how the Polar and Apple Watch difference in heart rate can be explained by refreshment rates difference?
Nice videos!
Keep up the hard work!!
it will be useful to have a comparison with others watches as far as Running concerned.
Well, lets see what the Google Pixel Watch #2 compares. #1 seemed to do allright, so maybe #2 will do better. Maybe not. Hopefully he'll review it soon-ish.
Great review! Please do garmin 3 next
Testing it now :-). Unfortunately I am not on Garmin's list to get these watches early, so it always takes me much more time than the other reviewers.😅
@@TheQuantifiedScientist no prob, looking forward to it
You are amazing! Thanks a lot!
Hey, I love your content. Will you be testing the Withings Scanwatch 2?
Mi Band 8 (Global) - please, retest. From one of the video i've seen, that on global version heart rate was more accurate
Great video as always!!!
Thanks a lot, Rob ❤️
Can you please test ( huawei Watch 4 pro )
Can you test in on like a bicep band just like how WHOOP does it.
