Meh
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device was an upgrade from my Galaxy Watch3. The battery life is about the same, unfortunately. The speaker isn't consistent, and the functionality is a little better

Stylish with good battery life
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 3rd different brand of smart watch. My biggest complaint to date was the inability to reliably get a full, busy day of use out of the battery. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 (40mm version) pulls its weight with at least 24 hours of runtime [rated at 30hr/40hr depending on "always on" feature--I do not have mine set to always on nor do I have wifi always on]. The battery fast charges to 8hr of charge in 8 minutes per the website. I have operated the watch mostly as a bluetooth paired device with my Android phone. The watch itself is very stylish, more so than its primary competitors, in my opinion. The band is very comfortable and easy to clasp and fits my wrist well. The screen pretty much goes right up to the edge--minimal wasted space on bezel. The screen is bright and bold and easy to read. Built-in GPS means you ditch the phone but still track your exercise when walking, hiking, cycling, etc. Although booting of the watch seems a bit sluggish, setup was easy. Essentially download the Galaxy Wearable app, turn bluetooth on on the phone, wait for the watch to give a code that you confirm over on the phone, then finish the setup and configuration on the phone. It took about 7 minutes including some time to do an update and a watch restart. The internal guts of the watch (processor, speed, storage, etc.) are all fine and fast and ample for what I need. Health, fitness and sleep are all great aspects of this watch, but here's where Samsung starts to lose me... There are too many uninstallable Samsung preloads on the watch. I live and die by Google apps and accounts and had hoped this Android driven watch would not come with too much bloatware. Even if I used a Samsung phone, I probably would still prefer my Google apps over the Samsung equivalents for health, music, photos, etc. The fact that I cannot uninstall the Samsung branded apps is frustrating, plus they appear to be always active (cannot turn off background activity on the Samsung Health Monitor app, for example, however it appears to be using 0% of the battery at the moment). At best, I can move these apps to the bottom of my app list and install my preferred equivalent apps to the top of the list. All in all, a very stylish, easy to use and read smart watch with better than average battery life but a little bloated with Samsung apps (health app being among the best) and tools that cannot be removed.

One of the best Android Smart watch!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Samsung Watch 6 is easily one of the best android smart watch in the market today. If you are new to smart watches or looking to upgrade, the Watch 6 is easily one of the best options. Look and Feel: -------------------- With a 40mm dial, its gracefully simple, beautiful, and compact – surprisingly, it looks equally great on a 12-year-old’s, ladies, and men’s wrists. For those who prefer a larger dial, there are bigger options and classic which enhances the look further. The crystal glass is super strong and seems scratch resistant. I have already seen this in Watch 5 for about a year and I am expecting this to be no different in watch 6. At just about 1 oz, the watch feels extremely light and after a while, you don’t realize you have it on. There are various band options. The default one is a “fluoroelastomer” which is a fluorocarbon-based synthetic rubber and feels light and comfortable. Watch 6 comes with a button press type band, which is so easy to remove and swap the bands around. Display: ----------- It’s a step up from Watch 5, with a much-reduced bezel. With 1.31 inch AMOLED 330 ppi display with Sapphire Crystal Glass, the display is crystal clear even in bright sunlight. Pairing and Setup: ------------------------- Pairing with an android phone is a simple process. All you need to do is install Galaxy wear app on your phone. It detects the watch automatically and the setup process is a breeze. Fitness & Health Tracker: ---------------------------------- The watch automatically detects the workout mode and it measures the duration, distance calories burned. It automatically detects different kinds of activities like running, jogging, walking, rowing, swimming etc. If something isn’t automatic, then it can be tracked manually. This also measures Heart rate, Blood-oxygen, ECG, Skin Temperature. This also features snore detection, and tracks sleep stages like Light/deep sleep. Tech Spec: --------------- With 2GB RAM and 16 GB internal memory, this watch is super fast and has no lags switching between apps / tiles. This has 5.3 Bluetooth version and supports WiFi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz It sports NFC, and the coolest feature is to tap your watch to pay using Samsung Wallet. This also has a mic and speaker, where you can even take calls if needed from the watch. Battery: ----------- With abundant features packed into this little lightweight gem, with a 300 mah capacity it manages to provide a battery life of just over 24 hours, making everyday charging a must. It sports a quick charging with a 30-minute charge provides about 50% battery. It took an hour and 5 minutes to charge from 15% to 100% OS & Watch Faces: --------------------------- This runs on Wear OS 4 and sports a huge variety of watch faces – Analog, Digital, Sporty, Simple, Basic, Minimalist, Informative with all sorts of customizations. Conclusion: ----------------- The watch is not only stylish but also extremely lightweight and comfortable to wear. I do not need to take out my phone from my pocket every time I hear a chime. With so many band options and watch faces, it just feels new every time even after months of use. This is one of the reasons why I prefer a smart watch over a regular watch. Plus, it features fitness tracking and health tracking – all added benefits. With all such amazing features, I have no hesitation to recommend a smart watch and a Samsung Galaxy watch in particular, as this is one of the best android watches available in market today.

Nice features ... poor battery life
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was a little challenging. I downloaded the Wear app and followed the instructions. It had trouble pairing and gave the same error message several times. Samsung’s help page said to hold both buttons on the watch at the same time until the watch starts rebooting (don’t just turn off). That worked and I was able to pair the watch. Then it walks you through several permissions and wants you to download several apps on your phone for additional functions. It was painful to receive error messages for almost every associated app at login. Multiple tries were required. Tip – update the software on your watch first. The watch will connect to your cellular network without your phone. The Galaxy 6 does allow for a lot of customization and has a lot of apps, including: Fitness Tracking including specific types of exercises Personalized heart rate zones and targeted intensity Sleep coaching to track your sleep stages and snoring Heart rate monitoring EKG (Samsung phones) Text Make phone calls Calendar Take photos using the watch as a controller (Samsung phones) Fall detection – will call your emergency contact Samsung Wallet Calculator, Stopwatch, etc… Call clarity was very good. And I didn’t have to hold the watch to my mouth secret agent style. The enclosed watch charger is fast charging but only has a USB-C connector and no AC adapter. I used an AC adapter to connect to the charger and it still fast charged for me. I wasn’t impressed with the battery life. Samsung Health is a great feature but it also drains the battery. My battery only lasted 19 ½ hours. I kept the display off during this time, used Samsung Health to monitor sleeping and exercise and only looked at a few emails and texts. The battery should last at least 30 hours, even if you keep the display on. Arriving at work today, the watch said I had 9 hours of battery left. It lasted about 4 hours and died. I use Outlook to store my contacts, calendar and emails. It syncs with my Google account via CompanionLink and it all connected seamlessly. The screen is bright, bold and big. Typing is a little difficult when trying to respond to a text or email message using the keyboard. Samsung Health is a great app and you can track weight, water consumption, types of activities, heart rate, stress, sleep, steps, blood oxygen, calories, etc… I keep discovering new ways to use it. I am a little concerned about sleep tracking. It doesn’t seem to track Deep Stage sleep very well. Samsung Health Monitor (a different app) will only work if you are able to download that app on your phone. It seems to only be available for Samsung phones so I wasn’t able to try this feature. You can even play music and the speaker isn’t awful. Amazon music playlists can be added in your phone to play on the watch. You can swap out straps too – Samsung offers other bands for $50 and up that can be easily changed with One-Click. I am not very fond of the rubber type strap included as it remains moist if you get water under it during hand washing. FYI – it comes with a S/M band which was fine for my wrist. Summary … I like the Galaxy Watch6. If the battery lasted twice as long and you didn’t have to have a Samsung phone to use all of the features, it may have totally won my heart. It’s fun and offers a lot of convenience at your wrist but some things I strongly prefer to do on my phone.

Love this watch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this watch. The face is 44mm so it is easy to read but still not bulky. Very light and very easy to navigate the screens. Super easy and fast to connect to my android phone. NOTE: Turn off the hard fall detection. I dropped it on the bed and the watch called 911 because the hard fall detection was turned on. I had no idea that was even a thing. The police showed up. They were very nice, but we were all confused. Then I happen to look at the watch and sure enough... it called 911. Having said all that, it is a nice safety and emergency feature that can be turned on and off depending on your level of activity. Other than that... I LOVE THIS WATCH. Battery life is decent. I have a lot of notifications turned on so the battery life is depleted much faster but it is still much better than most. I have had 3 other Galaxy watches, fossil smart watches and several fitbits. I can honestly say this is my favorite (except for that snafu with the 911 call)

Great compliment watch to your Samsung phone
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Short Summary: One of the best Sumsung accessories for your new Samsung phone that compliments and extends usability and function. It's fast and responsive over the past generations and easy to use. User interface takes some getting use to if you're not familiar with the Samsung watch OS. I'd highly recommend this for runners that do not want to carry your phone and the tech savvy people looking to say connected via watch notifications. In the box: Samsung Smart Watch 6 USB-C magnetic charging base Manuals Setup: Setting up the watch is very simple on my Samsung phone. The in watch setup was very helpful and easy and the on phone instructions made it simple to personalize the watch face to my useful widgets. Use: I got this watch to complement my new Samsung watch. I've own 2 previous generations of this watch and it just keeps getting better and better. A little bit about what I use this watch for: 1. Tracking distance, heart beat, and pace while running 2. Tracking of steps and daily stretching reminders 3. Notifications discretely while working or with company 4. Listening to music with out my phone I'm often running and it's just a hassle running with my large phone. I want to just focus on my pace and breathing and not worry about if I'm going to drop my phone. The Samsung Watch 6 is perfect for runners trying to track different metric of your run like pace, distance, and heart beat. The smart watch 6 also works as a music player. I use spotify with my watch and works perfectly. NOTE, in past generation of the watch I was able to use the onboard speaker to listen to music if I forgot my earphones but this gen doesn't seem to support playing music through the watch speaker. I'm sure its a setting I haven't figured out. I also like the that I can discretely get notifications when I'm in a work meeting or with company. I don't have to be rude and look at my phone when I can turn to glance at my watch and respond there if needed. Conclusion: I'd highly recommend this for any one looking to add functionality to your Samsung phone or simply just look stylish.

Smooth like butter!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm excited to wear the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 6. I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 to pair the watch with. I would say setup is absolutely a breeze since the wearable app is already pre-installed on the phone. The screen is gorgeous and the band is super super soft, smooth like butter as the BTS guys said. The screen is defaulted to "Always ON", as a result of this, upon wearing it on the first day, I was left with 20% battery level by 3:30pm. So, the next day, I switched it to "ON" only when I lifted my wrist or tap the screen. The result was night and day, I was left with 80% battery level by 3:30pm this time. Charging time is also uber fast. My favorite thing is how customizable the watch and the screen is just so vivid. I would encourage everyone buying this watch to install a screen protector before wearing it. After wearing it on the first day, I somehow cracked the tempered glass screen protector and I had no idea how it happened. The only thing I wish is how thick the bezel is. I wish it can be a little bit thinner.

Great watch, great tech
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had a bunch of smartwatches over the years, going as far back as the Asus Zen Watch. This is my second Samsung watch and it's way, WAY better than my previous ones. I'm glad that the 44mm exists as I do not have huge wrists and I do not really want to look like I've got a phone taped to my arm. It's big enough to use on its own. As many other brands, this watch comes with all manners of sensors and apps which are great if you like to keep track of your health, weight, workouts and so on and so forth. It's perfect to monitor your text messages and emails without having to pull out your phone. There are many watch faces to choose from and you can even go as far as making your very own. Kudos for that, Samsung. Now I'm going to touch on the battery life. I've read a bunch of reviews saying that it has a horrible battery life. My experience with the Watch6 is somewhat different. I use it all day and it can hold for around 24 hours on a full charge. It seems that most people do not realize that in order to enable the battery to fully charge and maintain the same charge every time, you need to charge it full before use. Most people seem to never charge BEFORE using any devices with a rechargeable battery. Charge time is also important. My watch takes about an hour or less to fully charge from 8% to 100% on the original charger, which I have plugged in a USB hub with a higher wattage. So if you are struggling to charge your watch, it's most likely the brick or hub you are using. Bottom line is that this is a great watch at an affordable price point. It's well made and works better than I had hoped. I absolutely recommend this watch.
