Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between bluetooth and LTE?(3 answers)
A: AnswerAloha, thanks for taking the available time out of your busy day to ask us your question about the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic. That's a very interesting but good question! Bluetooth enabled devices or watches in this case require communication between their paired smartphones within short distances to make and/or receive calls and/or text messages. They rely on the Bluetooth connection in order to be fully functional devices. LTE enabled devices are ones that utilize a cellular network to access the internet, to make and/or receive calls and/or messages without the need of being paired to a smartphone. LTE watches can leave their counterparts behind and still remain connected to the world! Hope that helps answer your question! Let us know if you have any additional questions for us by contacting Samsung Support at your leisure. Thank you for being a steadfast Samsung customer. - DebraAnswered by Samsung

Actually I'm very impressed
I am actually very happy with this watch. It does not register workouts automatically. You have to activate it to start recording your workouts, but it will register if you walk longer than 10 minutes and start tracking. I get about one and a half days out of a full charge with just about everything turned on. Definitely not Fitbit battery life, but then again, it has a lot more features. Heart rate monitor seems to be doing much better than the Fitbit also. Mine is a 43mm classic which only comes with a small strap. I was concerned that it might be too tight because I have a medium sized wrist. Still got a few holes left and a nice comfortable fit . I only wish that the United States would permit the blood pressure monitor to be on this watch, then I would say this would be the ultimate watch.

Very Functional Watch
The Classic watch is great! Very functional. Easy to pair to my Samsung phone. I agree with others that when you don't need to use bluetooth or wifi, turn it off and you can save battery power. For the price you pay, you shouldn't have to do that, but I just had to had the bevel (makes it easier and quicker to get to screens I want.) I get about 2.5 to 3 days but it is still fairly new. As a trscker it is better than my Fitbit Versas. Cant just necessarily shake that arm and expect to clock points, which is better. Wish the bands came in better colors.
