Been using mine since yesterday morning. Loving it so far, it's very fast and snappy and the battery seems to be able to last around 2 days which is more than good enough for me.
Not happy with the battery life, but love the watch! Generally recharge it in the evening when watching TV. Want the sleep tracking so to save on overnight battery usage put it in "Goodnight Mode". Looking forward to the BP Sensor update once FDA approval for US 🇺🇸
It looks so much better with the Barton band (I have the same one I used it on my GW). Ritche bands are nice too. I get my Mystic Black 45mm tomorrow and I'm waiting to see how the GW oem band looks on it. Thanks for review Jabber Tech
A very thorough and fair review. I have the first Galaxy Watch 46mm 4G and I'd definitely switch for this one if the battery performance was better. I get up to 4 and sometimes even 5 days on a single battery charge and i wouldn't like to trade that for a day and a half. But then if you want to have it all and you're a heavy user you can't really squeeze that much out of a tiny watch battery, so let's just be realistic. Anyway, it's still better that the much hyped apple watch which doesn't even get you through the whole day and night. The Samsung watches rule IMO.
Tareq Quddus isn’t not have both, Samsung’s gone too sophisticated now with less of the cool techs products. They’re a massive company and could do whatever they wanted, why not have a Bling futuristic tech division that makes things like the Gear S and original Note Edge. This is why tech has become boring of late, all looking to the past and not enough playful sci-fi.
I've got the Mystic Black 45mm GW3. I get around a day and a half with Always on Display. Mine charges pretty quickly. I put it on the charger tonight for a half hour and went from 42% to 71%.
Hey Chris, I have a question. If you were to turn off the aod, but all other features on, would you be able to charge your watch only when you shower (twice a day), and always have battery
@@AniSauceYT.My daily routine has been to put the watch on the charger for an hour before work and that usually takes it to 100. That's with AoD on and 50% brightness, which is plenty bright, even in the sun. I enable goodnight mode while I sleep.
Oh yeah, TechnoProz just posted a video on how to set up ECG and BP I did it on my GWA2. Works like a charm. Checked my ECG and it read rhythm as advertised.
It's definitely a nicer and more refined looking watch. But, I rotate befween my GW 46mm and GW Active 2 44mm every day and I don't see this as being an upgrade worth it for me. I do like the extra storage though. If Sammy was smart, they would offer me the bronze in 45mm, because I don't buy small watches, but I like different colors and looks.
Nice review. Not sure the price diff to the 46mm GW1 is worth it though. They really need to get the Tizen appstore up and running with some proper apps as well - there are way too many poor apps that don't help this watch.
I have a flawless black Gear S3 Frontier with a black stainless steel mesh band and black diamond cut bezel ring, totally unique. Samsung offered me $200.00 trade in for it plus a cyber Monday discount bringing the Watch 3 LTE down to just $219.00 plus tax. I decided to give it a try... After setting it all up (keep in mind that I don't use any of the fitness functions, I use my watch for phone calls, text messages, checking emails, getting weather and package alerts and Samsung Pay for super fast checkout) their was absolutely no different in the user interface. All the apps I use daily were the same and looked exactly the same. The Watch 3 felt lighter and cheaper (despite being nearly $500.00 retail). Even though the Watch 3 was brand new my Gear has longer battery life. But the last straw for me was when I stopped into the convenience store that I use daily on the way to work and Samsung Pay would not work. Turns out the stores card readers are old school and don't support NFC payments and the Watch 3 DOES NOT support MST payments. So, on day 2... The Watch 3... went back to Samsung and the Gear S3 Frontier went BACK ON MY WRIST.
Thx for the great review! Do you like this better than the Fenix 6? Like the smarts but fitness Is pretty important to me. Hate having two watches. What's your take?
Hi. Thanks 4 a great video. I had the galaxy watch. It came out about a year or 2 ago. It was mandatory to update the app on the phone every 2-3 weeks or it could not be used. Is that the same issue with the active 2 and the watch 3. That becames annoying after a while.
Questions : 1. My old Gear eventually died...how does one install a new battery once after years of use the battery is useless no matter trying to charge? 2. The back of my old Gear watch came off. Would this happen to this one? 3. BT vs LTE...what is the major difference between?
pity the functionality is limited on ios its a very good apple watch alternative just those ios limitations kill it.that display and watchface is 🔥looks so photo realistic
Yeah, but that's Apple's fault. No smartwatch other than Apple Watch allows you to answer calls and reply messages on iPhone. They do this in order to force their users to buy Apple Watch.
Hi Jabber how does this compare to the fenix6x pro im not happy with my watch 3 i find the tracking out and calories burned out by over half of my apple watch. I just watched your garmin fenix 6x pro review and i fancy that now lol
@@TheJabberTech thanks Whats the size comparison between the 2 any chance you can post a pic side by side ? Stumbled on your chanel and subscribed thanks for the hard work and informative vids :)
Hey Jabber Tech, I have been confused for many days as to which watch to buy on a budget of 30,000 and yes lte or bluetooth give me special advice, thank you
How is that watch holding up? I saw a video where the guy said the the paint on that aluminum rotating bezel is coming off and gets easily scratched. I want to buy that galaxy watch 3.
what features do you lose if you're not using a Samsung phone? Will you benefit from most features if say you pair this with a Pixel? Does it work with Google Assistant?
My husband is going to get me this watch. I have a Motorola phone. How do you charge it? Does it come with a wall plug in charger, if not what one do you recommend?
@@TheJabberTech ok thank you! I want to be prepared. Already have the Samsung Galaxy wear and health app installed on my phone. Any others that I should get?
i bought one and took it back. i was so dissapointed that here in the uk you cant use google pay on this device so your left with crappy samsung pay and it does not accept cards from most of the big banks such a let down i could not use my lloyds nat west or barckleys.
Not sure if it's just in USA, but I think with Samsung Pay, you can pay from any card terminal, even old school ones. If you can swipe a regular card on it then you can use Samsung Pay. That's a huge benefit. Not sure if that has changed though.
Nice review. Am torn between a garmin and samsung. Broke may garmin vivoactive hr. And havent bought any. Am a marathoner and triathlete. And wanting a change of watch.
I had the Samsung Gear S3. Loved that watch, but it finally died after 4 years. I was going to pick up the Gear Watch 3, but was disappointed with the reduced battery, and lack of other improvements over the Galaxy Watch. I ended up getting a garmin instead. While the screen isn't as nice as Sammy's oled, daytime visibility is great and amazing battery life seals the deal.
My Galaxy Watch 2 had water ingress from regular freestyle swimming for 20 minutes per session. Samsung refuse to admit their watch is not really 5 ATM water resistant and is charging me the price of a brand new watch to repair it. I'm posting this everywhere to warn potential buyers. Apologies for spamming.
Jabber Tech That’s great! So there is a Messages app for the Watch that allows you to respond? Now if Google would create a UA-cam music app for the Galaxy Watch? If Google would create a Google Messages app for the Samsung Tablet, it would almost feel like iMessage for the Android ecosystem.
Lol,google needs to create a YT music app for wearos first! Many devs aren't making apps for tizen bc they say there isn't enough money to be made and samsung isn't offering incentives to do so 🤷
For my usage as long as it lasts a day then I'm good, as I wouldn't use sleep tracking. Just slap in on the charger next to the bed and grab it in the morning.
I had a Gear S3, changed to a Fenix 5+. Mega disappointed with the F5+. It does nothing as well as my Gear S3 did apart from battery life. Personally I'd steer clear of Garmin, especially when you are looking at circa £600
Jabber Tech I own it and the gap bet the watch and the strap is so ugly. You can even see the spring bar release with the original strap. Blood oxygen accuracy is not reliable.
While i agree that this is more of a smart watch than fitness watch, Apple Watch does both really well. If you’re paying over $400 the fitness features needs to at least be on par of that of the Apple Watch if not better.
Jabber Tech you said if you’re going to do high intensity workouts you wouldn’t do them on a Samsung watch. HIIT workouts are workouts i do on the Apple Watch and the HR monitor is on point. So that right there says it’s not on par with the Apple Watch.
True but in the Android market Samsung is the best option we have for a true smart watch that also does fitness. Most people that do HIT workouts that I see, are all about that Garmin life anyway. The apple watch is not as nice looking as the galaxy watch,that's for sure .
Jabber Tech I’m an Apple Watch user but hate the Apple phone! Love the watch but I’m going back to Android. My dream smart watch would be integrating garmin with Samsung watch. I might give this watch a try and hopefully it works but I’m a bit skeptical.
You are preaching to the choir! Imagine garmin adding a speaker, microphone and an amoled panel on their next watch 🤔 #gameover for everyone! But seriously I think this is the best fitness-ish watch Samsung has made..huge strides forward in the right direction!
Almost $120 increase in price compared to the previous model, yet nothing seems new hardware-wise except for higher 8gb storage (of which half is taken up by the OS!). Battery life is a downgrade, the haptic motor is a joke compared to the active series and Apple watch. In my opinion, it even looks worse in design because of its protrusive esthetics rather than being functional and comfortable on the wrist. If I am paying that amount of money for this stupid watch it better improves on the hardware department and be an actual upgrade, not just a similar watch with stupid features that are yet to be enabled elsewhere other than Korea, e.g. ECG and SpO2, which are gimmicky inaccurate features. Samsung is playing it wrong and headed in the wrong direction with this watch, all of that just to match their prices with Apple, which are both becoming stupidly expensive and consumer-unfriendly.

Try when you're really low,about 5%..it takes a long time. Some watches are now including a quick charge feature that gets you roaring in minutes
