The Galaxy Watch 6 Classic is a stylish and functional smartwatch. The rotating bezel is back, and it's fantastic for navigating the interface. The display is bright and crisp, and the build quality feels premium. Health tracking is comprehensive, with accurate heart rate monitoring and sleep analysis. 1 Wear OS feels smooth and responsive, and the app selection is solid. Battery life is decent, lasting a full day with moderate use. If you want a classic-looking smartwatch with top-notch features, the Watch 6 Classic is a great choice.

I replaced my Galaxy Watch 5 Pro with this 6 Classic. The only difference I can tell in performance from the 5 pro is the battery life. Not even a big deal at all though. These watches charge up quick and with that itself. Battery life is not even considered an issue to me. I usually upgrade on every watch as soon as a new one comes out and this is the first watch I actually keep the screen always on option on. The large screen is percect and the preset watch faces it comes with catch everyones attention. Ive replaced the original watch bands with a spigen watch "case" and it makes it look much more tactical. The performance is great. Seems snappier than the 5 pro and the rotating bezel makes such a big difference coming from the 5 pro.

The face of this watch is huge! I like the bezel feature because it’s easy to scan through the apps fast and with moving through the contents of the apps. I’ve added a glass cover and bumper around the sides to protect my investment in this watch. The battery lasts at least 5 days for me.

Has Exceeded My Expectations Since Day One

I purchased the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic (47 mm, stainless steel, black) as an open-box item and couldn’t be happier with my purchase. I opted for in-store pickup, and the process was quick and easy.
The watch was exactly as advertised—in excellent, like-new condition, factory-reset, with all original packaging, and accessories.
I’ve had it for a couple of years now, and it still works flawlessly. It’s durable, with a wide range of useful functions, including fitness tracking, receiving and responding to phone notifications, and even taking or transferring calls directly on the watch when needed.
Its large display and sleek, professional design make it a definite conversation starter, especially when utilizing the tap-to-pay feature. In addition, the extensive customization options are the cherry on top of an already well-made device.
If you’re considering purchasing open-box or are unsure about the Galaxy Watch6 Classic in general, I highly recommend it. This watch has held up incredibly well and has far exceeded my expectations.

I recently bought the galaxy watch 6 classic to replace my galaxy watch 4. Design: The Design feels premium and sturdy with the stainless steel chassis. The rotating bazel is useful and the screen is bright and responsive. Software: The software has improved over the last 2 generations and has gotten better at sleep tracking, heart rate count, step count and exercise tracking. Battery life: The battery life is miles ahead of my galaxy watch 4 and last 2 days on a single charge. Overall this is a great smartwatch for someone who wants a classic and premium design with reliable health tracking.

I love the color and style. I was worried that it would look too big on my wrist because it's the larger one but the size does not look bad at all. Only thing, it is a bit heavier than my older galaxy active 2 i had. Although i don't like sleeping with my watch on, i do like the sleep feature. Battery life has been about 2 full days with regular use. I don't keep keep the screen on.

The watch 6 classic brings back the famous rotating bezel and with more screen real estate too.
The design is gorgeous especially in the silver color it stands out a lot and the weight is heavy but the good kind of heavy.
The overall interface is really nice with wear os 4 and one ui skin on top. It's great for texting, phone calls, notifications throughout the day. I haven't tested any fitness activities as I don't use watch for that but other than that everything is pretty solid. The 47mm I got is such a big size but not in a bad way. I have slim wrist and takes up my whole wrist haha.

You know, it's like stepping into a little film of my own tech journey—where every moment with these watches feels like a scene crafted just for me. I've had the pleasure of rocking a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, picked up online at Best Buy, along with a Galaxy Watch Ultra that came bundled with my S25Ultra from Verizon. Both act as standout stars in a production where my two Pixel Watch 2’s simply can’t hold a candle—the contrast is as striking as comparing apples to avocados.
When you're on the fence, trust me on this: let Samsung take the spotlight. Even though I can find charming details to admire about the Pixel line, Samsung consistently delivers a performance that's hard to beat. There’s only one minor intermission in this otherwise stellar show: since the introduction of Wear OS 5, both Samsung’s Series 7 and the Pixel’s Series 3 have lost that sweet compatibility with my beloved Facer app. But in the grand finale, the Samsung watches still steal the show.

I love everything about this watch including the large 47mm face which is great for easy reading. I'm still learning all of its capabilities. The battery lasts more than a day on one charge and the bevel makes moving through screens easy. All in all, very happy with this purchase.

Looks and feels like a classic timepiece. It has a sleek and stylish design with a rotating bezel that makes it easy to navigate apps. The watch has a 20% larger screen than its predecessor, thanks to a thinner bezel, and is made of durable crystal glass that protects it from bumps and scratches. The Galaxy Watch6 Classic is available in two sizes, 43mm and 47mm, and is made of stainless steel, which gives it a shiny and durable finish. It has an IP68 rating, which means it is water-resistant and dust-resistant. The watch has a range of features, including sleep coaching, irregular heart rate notification, body composition, cycle tracking, infrared temperature sensor, GPS route tracking, and fall detection. The battery life is fast charging and can last up to 361mAh. The Galaxy Watch6 Classic is a powerful smartwatch that is perfect for anyone who wants a classic look with modern features. Love it!

Everything works. Battery life seems to be as described in reviews, about 40 hours. I don't have a Samaung phone so some of the medical features were not immediately avalable to me but there are work-arounds so I have the EKG and blood pressure capabilities working now on my watch with my One Plus phone. And they seem to work well. The step counting and sleep features seem more effective that I've found on cheaper watches. Overall, I'm very pleased.

Love the 47mm size. Dial selection makes a lot easier instead of using buttons on side to bring up. Multiple app selection based upon how you choose to use. Pretty accurate on health monitors but could use some improvement. Great watch for day to day use. Looks much better with metal band.

First foray into the Smartwatch world, and very pleased so far. Still learning all the features, but the set up and the basics were easy. Purchased an alternate watch band for more breathability and more secure hold (original band came undone while I was sleeping). Love that you can change watch faces. Also, the 47 mm size is perfect for me. Rotating bezel is great. I was slow to give up traditional watches, but I can't see going back now. Pricey - but advanced tech is going to cost.

This is a great watch. I purchased it to replace a much older model Samsung Galaxy Watch Classic. I appreciate the larger display and thinner design. I purchased my own metal band with a clasp immediately. I recommend you buy a band you like, as the included band is just rubber.

I was a little naive when purchasing a "smartwatch" I was not sure of the Samsung smartwatch 6 capabilities! I figure being in the medical field it be best to use. Boy was I right! The large face 47 mm on this gorgeous sleek watch not only matches my scrubs but it super easy to use! I am currently still getting used to it. But I am in love! Great watch and get this... purchasing at Best Buy qill give you the best deal on it!

It's everything I want in a watch. It's got a big face and it's very bright. The rotating bezel is amazing. The battery life is surprisingly very well done. I can get 3 days and two nights out of it before it needs to be charged. I love the customization and everything that I need and I watch. The build quality is amazing and call quality is great and functionality is amazing with Google Assistant.
