The design is what it is (yes it looks like a competitor) but that is where the simularities end. The customizing is just like previous generations, only better. The processor is snappy, the sensors appear to work well. The battery holds a very good charge (bout 2 days give or take) and is not as thick as the watch 3 i had. Overall a worthwile upgrade.
Honestly I like the shape and design of the watch. There's a couple of features I don't like one of which is when charging it seems to stay on even after hitting the off button. I really dislike the bezzle since now it touch instead of spinning it to maneuver between apps. When I touch it it's way to sensitive and at times doesn't seem to work properly. So that's something I won't be using. Also wish you'll would have added more apps availability. Like my own YouTube account ro something so I can listen to music straight from watch without comercials. I can do it if I use the website on it but it was very hard to manuever. The design tho is nice and some gesture features that were added but other than the design not much is changed. Battery seem to last just like my last one as well.
Great entry into the Ultra market, not as polished as the iWatch Ultra, but its pretty good, the batter does drain fast, get about 1.5 days on average if you use basic features, 1 day if you listen to music and record activities etc. Overall solid effort
This watch is been a huge upgrade in my daily and fitness life. My quality of life has went through the roof. I've have the OG galaxy watch original for years now and I'm so glad I waited this has rewritten the fabric of my reality. And I'm super pleased with the aesthetic. The design is flawless. I love the rich screen bezel. Seriously you guys have out done yourself and as a die hard Samsung user I will continue to enjoy everything you guys do from phone to the buds to the watch and even TV's. Outstanding work and thank you again for a 2nd to none product!!
