Disappointed
on February 6, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
I just upgraded from the gear sport watch as I wanted the newer health monitoring features. There was definitely a learning curve switching from something that "old" to this. Despite adjusting to some of the differences, I have not been able to adjust to the battery life. I could go about 1.5 - 2 days on a single charge with my gear sport. With the galaxy watch 4, my battery life is barely 12 hours.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Really like my Galaxy Watch
on February 1, 2022
Posted by: AngelM

Expertise:Expert
I got the 40mm watch because it is the right size, I also got the hybrid band. Both combined looks great. I like several things from my watch, from heart rate, sleep mode to know how well I slept. Stress, ecg, and bpm are useful. I have used it to run, walk, do yoga, workout and I am really enjoying it. The LTE version is a plus since I do not need to carry my phone around to do things, like do samsung pay, play music, directions.
There are a lot of features I like and most of them are the sport side since I like to be active, and I had a watch that almost did everything this one did except the stand alone such as make phone calls.
I would like improvements; I use the NRC Nike app to go running and I cannot use this app on my watch or even link it somehow. The battery does not last more than one day when I am active, when I am not it lasts up to two days.
Overall, it is a good watch,

I traded my Active 2 for the Watch4 Classic. I wish I would have kept my Active 2 The battery life sucks and tih band is to short. The watch faces I loved on the Active 2 are much better and versatile. I am totally disappointed with this one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Battery life is pretty poor
on January 29, 2022
Posted by: Brit
from Tampa, Florida
Expertise:Intermediate
For the most part I love this watch. I love that it doesn't look like a fitness tracker. I love the different options for watch faces and the different apps. I love that I get an alert if I leave the house without my phone. The major issue for me is the battery life. I had read other reviews about the battery and that many users had to charge the watch daily. I could cope with that; I just put it on charge every evening while I shower. But often, the battery doesn't even last 24 hours. It really should come with a second charger, that can be kept in the car, or office, for when the battery dies randomly in the afternoon.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Battery life is an absolute joke
on January 25, 2022

I've owned several Samsung watches over the years, the s2, gear s3, active watch 2 and this one is by far the worst. I normally get the larger 44m watches and tried the watch 4 44m. I love how thin it is but found that it's too tall/long for my wrist and protrudes too much at the top/bottom, so i got the lte 40mm. I will be returning an dtsicking with my active watch 2 which comfortably gets me at leats 2.5 days. I can charge in the morning and by the next night still be at at least 30%. The new watch 4 drained 25% within the first 45min of wear while downloading a few apps PLUS the only app I found that even has any useful advantage over the active 2 is google messages. Google notes and maps are finicky on the watch and wouldn't even trust how little this watch would last while actually only using lte. I would stay away from this one at all costs until maybe the next samsung google watch that might fix these issues!
