My first real smartwatch was the Watch3, bought refurb, and worked great. But when the 6 came out, and the rotating bezel returned, I traded in the 3. The Watch6 Classic is exactly 2mm wider, and the actual screen is bigger. It has more processing power, and feels snappier. The silver version looks great with my silver/black metal link band, the OEM black faux leather band looks good, but chafes. I get the same battery life I had on the previous version. I wear it from 10pm nightly to 8pm the next day, then charge from 8-10pm. I'm usually down to 55% by 8pm. I consider that excellent, as nightly charging is an easy habit. I really love the Watch6, and of course it helps to have a Samsung S23 phone.

i see all the bad reviews completing about battery drain. I turned off AOD and raise wrist to wake watch. i set the display on adaptive. be careful which watch face you pick too bright or too much live movement will drain the battery. I get 2 full days and 3 full nights. I set up DND and sleep mode for overnight. Saves power and doesn't wake you up. i went from the watch 5 pro. it was a little thick and heavy. Battery life was a half day better, but the sensors were not as good. So complained about lag. i have never experienced lag the watch is super responsive
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've own this watch for almost 3 months. Watch 6 classic 47mm. Out of the box , it worked great minus the poor battery life. I was only getting about a day of battery life. After turning off always on display and a few other features , it went up to 2-2 1/2 days. Fast forward 2-3 months the battery life has gone down to 1- 1/2 days with no changes to the watch. The watch has the latest update. Other issue has started now, my watch no longer allows me to see my sleep data on the watch. Rather disappointed with samsung. They either don't want to fix the ongoing issues with the watch or they just don't care.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Significant issues so far. It overheats when charging almost immediately. It did not come with a charger! I am using my old OEM samsung charger from my other watch. Samsung got "cute" with the watch Lugs and they are angled instead of the standard straight lugs that support good bands. The band that can=me with the watch is quite uncomfortable. The blood pressure monitoring is not functional in the US. This watch looks cheap, but I bought it instead of just having the battery on my Gear S3 watch replaced. Also, the watch came charged at 85% and was down to 35% in just 9 hours. My 7 year old watch, with the degraded battery goes almost as long on a charge. I have ordered a new charger, but if I can't even get it to charge, I will have to return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice watch. I just bought it and I'm satisfied so far with all it has to offer. The 1 thing that makes me impatient is the fact that it charges slow. But that's just a me thing. The watch does everything as advertised and if necessary I'll come back in a few weeks if there are any noteworthy comments good or bad.
