Same here, was not a fan of smartwatch until I actually used one. Now it's the perfect daily companion, recording the steps I've taken and other workout activities really help in tracking my fitness goals. Nice!
Traditional watches for special occasions, and smartwatch for daily use.

She wasn't standing there. She was sitting.
I love my series 6. Have had it for several years and it's still going strong.
Beside all the cool integrations with the iPhone, I love how well it integrates with the Mac. You can unlock it and bypass lots of password prompts if you have the watch on your wrist. Highly recommended.
You can add some location based shorts on your phone that will start a certain workout when you enter the gym, leave the house for a walk or pass a certain point while riding your bike to work. I use the same to stop workout. Most of the time we do the same things over and over again, just automate it 🙌🏻
Drisha repeatedly miming a conversation whilst you are just talking to the camera is hillarious, hope you didn’t have to do too many retakes haha

Smartwatches are still not a style thing. Analog watches are still the luxury
@@shahan1465 Yup. Analog watches are timeless. You can't pass on a smartwatch to someone that will it wear it 70 years into the future or even 10 or 20 years into the future. Analog watches will always be cool.
and Samsung did most of his highlights in their watch, 7 years ago
Beautifully made video. The fun skits and active camera motions take this to another level! Props for the direction!
Congratulations on 18 million subs, as a subscriber who's been here for years, am genuinely happy for you, your videos are always entertaining and educative at the same time, from Zimbabwe, maita basa 🙏

Wow you are using the same strap I've been using and loving for over a year now, 😅 gives me so much validation and satisfaction to see it loved by you 😊😊
I admire the coherence and creativity of this video. It's really impressive
The part where the Dhrisha is just moving her hands and just saying whatever took me away😂😂😂
It makes the videos so much funnier 💀
the amount of things you do just for it be a 2 second B roll is insane
I know right. 💀
After watching this video twice and sitting on the information from it for a while, I took the dive and bought myself a pixel watch. I've had it for less than a week and it's already paying off. I look at my phone less and I'm able to stay focused on tasks. Also a nice way to encourage me to be active even more ❤
Thanks Arun!
I m not buying bcz it will distract me more. Although I like tech too much. Already using iphone.
Great informative video!!
But also major props on the video itself!! Great flow and visual to it
Around 1:35 where it shows a game, (GTA) it must have been so awkward filming that in public
2024... People are used to see other people do crazy stuff. Especially in big cities. So not a big deal 😅
I did cringe a little at that...
you don’t care when you do this being a multi millionaire
In terms of #3 Build you should check out the Stainless Steel version of the Apple Watch. I frequently get given compliments and questions about my watch because it is so shiny. Especially if I use the silver Milanese Loop 😊😊
I bought the ace pro last year, would be great to see you release a full review of it. Good product.
Exactly why I love my galaxy watch. Automatic workout detection is a lifesaver. And competing with my brother who lives a thousand miles away is awesome.
How is the galaxy watch? I'm a Samsung user and was thinking of getting a smart watch for the longest time but like MWTB here, I always thought, "Nah." The apple watch sounds amazing but I have a Samsung. So how the Samsung watch compare to the apple watch?
one thing: GW bad HR sensor that will bonkers all of your fitness data
@@Psydankit's great
@Psydank Honestly, it has been pretty good. Feature parity is full on the newer models, body composition can help a bit and it supports a surprisingly large array of workouts.
Notification filtering wasn't reliable in the past but with and update it got fixed.
I have used the original galaxy watch, watch4 classis, watch 6
It's good. @@Psydank
I use it mostly fitness related but other features are good as well.
Cons would be bad HR, it's not bad for get an idea but counting complex things like VO2 Max etc is not accurate. So if you can ignore that. I would say most people don't even know things like VO2 Max.
Anyway good watch, get the classic one if you can becuz you'll love the bezel. Idk what else, ask me if you have any questions.
The ring animation is absolutely hilarious when you break a record. I walked nearly 12 miles in a day. The ring spun so many times around.
My brother gifted mine to me and it really is a great tool. I love it, all the little things add up to create something I now can't live without.
good job making it to 18M subs. Keep up the great work man 👍
9:43 “The wedding music”🎉❤
The workout modes are Automatic on Galaxy Watch.
I had the same issue with my Mi Fit Bands, when I switched to Galaxy I was delighted to see the watch monitors your movements as normal but if it detects heightened strain for more than a few minutes it switches to a workout and logs everything you did so far while it's at it.
It's super nice
I love that especially for walks and hikes, if you look into the exercise options it's crazy detailed like curls it can track your reps
@@mikehurt3290 it's crazy good, nothing against the apple watch at all, it's also very good but the Galaxy watch is just a step ahead in my opinion
Mi Bands Detect Workout Activity Too
@thenightmare6032 the newest one maybe, I had a 4, 5 & 6, they didn't and if they where meant to it didn't work
The Apple Watch does it too, it always asks me if I want to record my cycling when I’m riding my electric scooter lol.
I just got an Apple watch SE (1st Gen) off the used market. I love your videos and am a huge fan! This video inspired me to set up my watch to be less distracting.
The guy literally discovered America in 2024
I do a lot of driving for work, being able to see important notifications by just glancing at my wrist that's already in front of me on the steering wheel is perfect. I'm a Pixel Watch 2 user.
What a vibe! New Delhi in January winters
The pollution 💀
@@hastytarsier6270 I am curious. do you drink or smoke?
@TheRealGigaCat idont smoke
@@TheRealGigaCat he breathes Delhi air, that's way worse
@@untangled44 there was low pollution for the first 10 days of February with aqi around 100
Notifications are the main reason I want/need to get a new watch. Knowing I will, guaranteed, see the notification makes it very easy to leave the phone in a bag or in another room. Sure, I might glance at the watch all the time to make sure I haven't missed anything, but it is still better then constantly grabbing my phone .
An excellent functionality is that if you take your Watch along let's say gym where it connect to the wifi meanwhile your phone is at home, you can still makes calls or message from your Watch while in term routes the call from the phone via the internet which can be really helpful. (Yes I'm talking about GPS only versions as well).
How perfect! I'm on the lookout for a new smartwatch! :)

It is amazing 👏

Umm wacky ........... mind me asking why youre here , i guess you like your gadgets👍love the videos btw.
The gta part with your wife is funny bro😭😭😭Too clean
At 14:36 you explain how it is really not a device itself, but that’s really not the case. I have a cellular Apple Watch connected with a eSIM from ATT which I use as my calling and messaging device without a phone.
Your editing shows when you do these outside videos with lower production level. Still look great!
Fall detection is a big motivator for those of us who are in our senior years. I bought one for my husband after he agreed to wearing it and we both feel much safer when I’m not home. Many of my older friends who have lost their spouse wear them because they live alone and are afraid of falling. I recommend them as gifts for your elderly parents.
another amazing feature you didn't mention is Remote Camera--being able to take a photo or video on your phone from a distance and have a viewfinder is incredible. I mainly use it when taking a night sky photo--I set Night Mode to 30 seconds, lie my phone on the ground, and take the photo using my watch.
yea i use my S Pen for this
Agreed, I use it every time!
Love that the lumos shortcut works on the watch. And the fact that you can now reverse the crown if you accidentally hit it due to your wrist structure.
Wow.. your editing is amazing, I wish I had your talent, great review
The bits with Dhrisa were hilarious 😂
Really insightful on how a piece of tech can seamlessly integrate into life and motivate healthy behaviors. Maybe it's time to give smartwatches a chance! Your point on ecosystem lock is absolutely valid and a significant factor to consider before diving into the smartwatch world.
Change your mindset and you can do without it, this is useless sh*t
You can all the stuff like message, take calls autonom with the cellular model (might cost extra for the eSIM depending on your provider). The battery of the ultra / ultra 2 lasts (for me, wearing it also at night to sleep track) about 3 days if you won't have to charge every day.
I went budget and got the AmazFit Bip 5 last December for sixty-five US dollars. It obviously lacks many of the features of an Apple or Galaxy watch, but does have all the health, workout and sleep tracking features, plus GPS and Alexa. Also, a full charge lasts a few weeks even with all the tracking features enabled. Well worth the money.
9:23 Drisha is a very good actress. She worked i mean acted better than Arun at some point😂. I mean she is talking but without making sound. 😂 Great work Drisha ❤
Agreed!!
I really like the Galaxy Watch specifically because of the customization off the bat without downloading a watch face. you can customize the background by adding pictures and GIFs, the way the time is actually displayed, and the peripherals that it shows at any given time, so timers, calories burned, emails, etc.. can be displayed in the 4 "corners" of the watch for example. You can also get images from texts and watch videos on the watch itself which is also very nice bonus.
also when i finally broke down and got a smart watch i actually found I'd been spending way more time not looking at screens. I can now quickly check messages and emails without having to open my phone and get distracted with something else trying to grab my attention. I look at a message respond and move on with my day
It's not at all surprising to me that an Android watch would have better customisation than an Apple watch.
It's not at all surprising to me that an Android watch would have better customisation than an Apple watch.
You can even watch UA-cam with the internet bowser which the Apple watch can do neither
But cannot play music using the Apple watch!!
Which you can on a Galaxy watch!! 😁
I think you should try the Galaxy Watch Classic too - just to be fair!!
Never thought I'd be a smartwatch fan, but this video completely changed my perspective.BTW, that Ace Pro caught my eye during the end-roll integration - any chance we could see a detailed review soon?
Bot
i love mine!! i didnt know i would like it so much but it looks good and has some reallyyy useful features. also gets me up cuz my phone alarm in the morning isnt as effective LOL
Just got a smart watch recently, getting the galaxy watch 6 classic and I can highly recommend a smart watch. So great for keeping you off your phone and keeping you accountable. One of the other perks is using a calendar system that alerts you when you have tasks and events its been great!
Most of the Samsung watches have cellular antenna, some can even function without a phone at all
Impeccable timing with the insta360
Yesterday I was researching what action camera I should buy, but I hadn't ordered the insta 360 ace pro. Now I got it at a discount
Great coverage. Using modern sheets need exploration and an open mind too get the most from.
The Apple watch was very helpful for me in reversing diabetes.
Sorry from that i love the voice input (to dos, timers...), listening to audible books, podcssts, music.
Notification reduction and only what you want is great. I mostly used my Apple watch with my android phone for a few years. However, I've just switched from Android to iOS for my main phone and love the focus modes that I can bring my watch into.
When i need a phone that will last me ten days without charging I use my Amazfit watch.
1:41 SUCH a missed opportunity to say “game changer”. 🤦🏽♂️
IK THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING 😭
The way the Apple Watch seamlessly integrates into daily life is truly impressive. I might just have to give smartwatches a chance now!
Bro your everywhere
It’s an Apple Watch 🤨

Nah. Something that you have to charge daily is not a smart watch. If Garmin can make their watches last almost a month on one charge, I don't see why Apple can't.
I just got one for Christmas, wear it every day.
1:22 , couple dream goals , gta NPC sketch 😂
I just got my smart watch in December. I agree with you about being life-changing. My husband and I both have them watches now and we make sure to walk together. And stand. Now that I am recovering from Covid, I wish I would stop getting those notifications to do Fitness.
I like that my watch looks like a smart watch. I paid almost $400 for it and I want it to look like a smart watch. I got a very nice band for, but it didn’t look like a Apple watch anymore, I took it off .
I really like the screen protector that I got and it stayed on for. I think it’s been several months. No problem.
9:18 Drisha is playing never gonna give you up with sign languange
i wouldn't be surprised at this point 😂
I wasn't much of a watch person either but as a mechanic who often finds his hands covered in oil and such, I decided to get a watch just for reading notifications and to control my music without having to reach into pocket all the time.
Got a xiaomi watch in '22 for $80aud and it's still going strong. Replaced the bands twice and the screen is scratched up a fair bit but still very usable. Being a mechanic, they will get beaten up A LOT! I disabled a lot of the stuff I don't use and set a slideshow background with my important pics. I'm glad I bought it.
I wear it every day and Charge it once a month and it's never lagged or frozen on me to my surprise.
😂 loved the game reference,Guess I'm getting a smart watch! 🙏🏾
Good for you. I am open to receiving alms or donations 🙏🏽
As always, you make some great points. I only really want the exercise features, but I didn't think you'd still need your phone on you to stream music to your headphones while exercising so I'm not sure it's doing enough for me. If I connect to my gym's wifi, can I then stream music directly from my watch?
1:37 the gta sketch of the watch on the top right was amazing design
Love my Galaxy Watch 4. I never use the keyboard tho, I use the voice recorder. The gestures to answer the phone/hang up/ignore are awesome.
Yeah, do tell how often it hangs itself xD been using that garbage within Samsung "ecosystem" never again.
Can you use the watch to receive calls without WIFI or Bluetooth connectionto your Samsung device?
@@irokpe6977Yes, you just need to get the LTE version.😊
I have a Garmin foreunner 955 which is much more of a fitness watch but it has insane mapping that works without internet and the watch is overall very independent from my phone (you only loose out on things such as notifications when out of range as it can do many of the key features on device)
Arun, the video is great and you really touch on the most important positives of the smart watch experience, but something has been buggin me ever since you started wearing the apple watch is... It is supposed to sit right behind the wrist bones if you want to measure HR accurately(as much as the watch can at least) :D
Anyway, besides my little OCD rant, good job and keep up the good work! Nowadays anything that pushes us even a little to be a bit more active is an achievement, I know wearing a smart watch helped me immensely since I started my fitness journey!
I've been using the Galaxy Watch 4 classic for about a year, and it changed my life. ❤⌚️
That rotating ring is really nice isnt it👌
I got frustrated with mine.
- had to reset it and start from scratch to be able to connect it to the phone after not using it for a while. (I broke my wrist)
- battery life is short.
- notifications arrived on it very late, defeating the point of it.
- after a few days it suddenly disconnects again, and having tried everything, I realise I probably have to reset it again.
- I go online and see that since January 2024 a lot of people are having connection problems.
- I've turned it off, and I've put it in a drawer.
- I've since bought a simple Xiaomi Redmi 4 watch, which for me personally does enough of what I need in a smart watch, and it has a great battery life to boot.
@@vince7245I just bought a regular watch 4 and I haven't had any issues since. I actually get the notification earlier than my phone does.
Same, but for me I don’t like it anymore. The ring is really cool and it has many great features but I don’t use any of them, so it doesn’t make sense for me. I will use it to listen to music when at the gym, so that would be great.
@@vince7245That sucks. Although i can only agree on the battery life in my personal experience.
Mine also stopped working completely once, but the warranty handled that.
Hey arun!
Just a small correction the samsung watch image
You have shown in the video is actually a "Samsung galaxy watch active 2" which is in deed compatible with iphones when you download samsung wearable app from the appstore. Its from the samsung watch 4 with wear Os when samsung watches stopped working with iphones. Anyway it was a great video😊😊
How did the battery life work out for you?
Im currently planing to buy my first smartwatch and don‘t know if i should get the steel series 9 or the ultra 2.
The price is the same but the ultra 2 is really big and i‘m just thinking about it because i‘m afraid the series 9 battery life not being good enough if i want to do sleep tracking.
And i can‘t really find information on the battery life of the series 9 (i would turn off always on display).
If that brings me comfortably through a day i would go with the series 9.
That looking to your watch to check notifications during a conversation really had the people talking thought I am in a rush or am impatient and looking at the time.

I never even considered getting one, but a Galaxy Watch 6 came "free" with my S23 Ultra and i must say it is quite the nifty piece of tech.
It was not free buddy ha ha

This is an amazing review. Loved it❤
I got the "free watch" deal with my S23 Ultra just to take the sting out of the already hefty price but I have to confess I actually really love having it now for a lot of the reasons mentioned in this video 😅
*The wedding music ...* that is the key to the BIG ONE!!!
That’s what she said
Interesting video. Like you I have found that buying a smartwatch (the Garmin Venu 3 in my case) changed my life. It sounds corny but since I got the watch I've been walking a lot more to get my steps challange each day. I now take the stairs in work to get my floors climbed challenge whereas before I used to always take the lift going up. Being able to monitor my sleep has been so useful too.
I've also found that I'm spending a lot less time on my phone. Because I can see the notifications on my wrist I can ignore them if they are not important. Previously if I pulled out my phone to check I probably would have spent 10-15 mins doomscrolling. I can also pay for things, set a timer, check the weather and use a flashlight without taking out my phone.
As for the watch itself: the 7-9 day battery life is great. I just wish there was better integration with Android and more 3rd party apps.
Venu 3s is my watch of choice. I'm still figuring out how to get Voice assistant working with my Galaxy S24
I recently picked up my Apple Watch SE for fitness. Definitely super useful for fitness. But I think that the Shortcuts app is going to be key to making this a real multi-tool that is useful outside fitness.
Certainly not Excel flexible, but being able to store variables, run basic conditionals and calcs, and output results, I can build out an array of tools on my wrist for lab work (such as conversions and titrations).
the wedding music. SWEET❤
I love these videos from you because there is ALWAYS some great research behind them.
Could you please do a video on event technology and examples of how the industry is changing or what's the worst to best
oh man, thats some sigma move ad there at the end. using the dji mic in the insta360 ad? wow, thats bonkers!
Such a great video. Some funny Easter eggs aswell. The way the people looked at you in the npc sketch😂
I have been loving my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic since I got it in late summer last year. It works super well with my phone, and I love all the cool stuff it does.
does it work with iphone ?
@velialpyavuz3411 Sadly, it doesn't it can do more than the apple watch its possible to watch youtube on it
Me too! I got my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic (47 mm) for Christmas. Loving it with my Galaxy phone as well!
My Pebble 301RD set a high benchmark for me. The functionalities, the display and the battery life. I want that back (:
i was looking at smart watches today. i lost my old one and i was debating between the apple watch 9 and the fitbit sense 2. ended up going for the sense 2 since i prefer batteries for more than one day to track my sleep over all the extras with apple.
i definitely recommend a fit bit tho
I’ve noticed the watch on your wrist for the past few videos and was looking forward to this A LOT.
Exactly the same thought I had after having purchased a smart watch for the first time (also an Apple Watch Series 9). Especially the notification thing... I was afraid too that I would get distracted from that, but the exact opposite happened for the same reasons you mentioned. Also the whole fitness thing has been great for me as well as all the other little things here and there that I found so useful during my day
Yeah, welcome to the club. I'm lost without mine for a lot of the reasons you've listed.
I'm on the wearOS side of the fence but am just about ready to put up with an iPhone again to have fitness challenges (I'm the only one in my group who is on a galaxy watch).
Feel the same way but got the ultra and love it. Track sleep don’t have to charge as much
9:37 NPC moment 😂
10:24 that was a direct attack man
This guys uploaded the video on the same day when i was thinking of buying one and know i am more into it.
I bought a Series 9 immediately after watching this video and have been super satisfied in the week following. I haven't used a smart watch since the Series 1 Apple Watch. On that note, am I the only one who has zero issues with the gestures working? It's been smooth and helpful since I unboxed it
Good video. A couple of things:
1. If you get the stainless steel watch, it comes a graphite crystal glass that doesn't scratch. After having an aluminum watch that got scratched too often and too easily, I gave that a try, and not a single scratch in 2 years. I'm using a series 7 that is in perfect condition (except for battery degradation).
2. Much of the notification settings you mentioned has been available for a long time, and is why I actually use the watch. It means I don't have to look at my phone anywhere near as often as I used to, and once I dismiss the notification on my watch, it is dismissed on my phone too.
What's the battery health?
5:27 “I think other companies like Samsung and huawei have actually made something more aesthetically pleasing” I 100% agree. One of the things that was gonna get me to switch to Samsung from iPhone was the galaxy watch just because I think that it looks so much better and more so like an an actual watch. The apple watch sometimes honestly looks like a toy.
Use both of them, I can guarantee you that you will change your mind.
How in the world did you get that scratch?! I'm a project manager in construction, and even though I don't swing a hammer, I still help my guys unload material (such as tile, lumber, rebar, and others) and my series 7 has handled a LOT without any damage! Anyways, great video!
8:50 did bro just say "full sized keyboard"???
He said " Even though it's better than a full sized keyboard "
Go back a bit to re-watch that part
