Samsung Galaxy Watch 4: Ultimate Health & Fitness Review

In this video I put the SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic through its paces. I tracked runs, brisk walks, bike rides, workouts, even a hike in upstate New York. And I compared it to a variety of devices, the Apple Watch Series 6 and Garmin's Forerunner 745. I also compared its Body Composition tool vs the WiThings Scale and InBody's $6000 machine. And the results may surprise you.Does Android finally have the smartwatch it deserves?

Honestly. Thank you so much for showing off the fitness stuff in such detail. No other reviewer has done it this well, subscribed.

I've never seen a review of Galaxy Watch 4 that talking about BMI sensor so in detail: a really comparison between a professional machine which cost $6000 VS a smart watch of $250 and give the same result... incredibile, and the best review ever!

1.) Spotify now supports offline downloads.
2.) Telegram has been pulled from Wear OS
3.) I’ve learned that you can customize the amount of data displayed during workouts. Start a workout and click on the gear to dive into settings

At 6:50 it's possible to turn on a "water lock" to prevent accidental touches. "Water lock" is a direct translation from my language, so don't know for sure if it's the right words on the English version.
And regarding download for offline listening on Spotify, it IS available now.

This is one of the in-depth review I have ever seen in my entire life. Thank you this review is very helpful.

@1:16 you had a lot of thoughts.
@1:12 you had a lot of abs.

Hey Michael! Just discovered you today. Was looking for a Galaxy Watch 4 review. And I must say, this is the best review out there by a huge margin. Unlike other youtubers who just walk us through the specsheet and add their opinions, it really shows in the video that you have throughly tested the device and your review is more from the user's point of view. Covers everything I wanted to know before I make a purchase. Have pre-ordered it. Let's hope it doesn't make me regret not buying Fitbit Sense which has a much better battery life I have heard and all the health features are approved here in India. On that point, none of the previous Samsung Watches got full approval here which makes me sceptical for this as well. If one takes out ECG & BP functionality, would you say there are better value for money alternatives out there? Coming from Emporio Armani Smartwatch 3 which only had heart rate tracking, this is certainly a big upgrade, but the battery life of my EA was a huge concern for me, had to charge it twice daily, which by the looks of it seems like it will be haunting me with this one as well. Great video anyways, just a small suggestion, if possible talk a more about the mechanics of certain features, like how they work, how are the insights etc.

This was the most comprehensive, easy to understand, and entertaining review I've ever seen. Fantastic!

[parminderjaura]

Damm dude, you are built 🔥🔥🔥, hands down the best fitness review for the galaxy watch 4.

[Omar-cmpb]

For being a fitness oriented review you covered almost everything in great detail while not making it overly complicated, thank you.

[jeffallinson]

That was a great unbiased review, thank you very much from North Yorkshire England. I have been a Watch 4 user for a few months now and I just love it. Using the USB charger, my phone is up and running in about an hour to an hour and a half (40mm version) it had google assistant straight out of the box, the ecg will now warn you of any issues and the blood pressure monitor is both easy to set up and darn accurate too. I love the sleep tracking and have no issues with the deep sleep monitoring whatsoever. I guess in a year the watch 4 has improved dramatically. The Watch 5 was on sale when I got mine but I could not justify the extra cost and the 4 is an absolute bargain. If anybody is in the market for a top end smartwatch, the Watch 4 is a no brainer must purchase.

These tests on the watch were really the only truly FULL review, not only for customers in Philippine but also Taiwan, and probably even for all videos on YouTube! Thank you tested on the machine InBody and compare with the watch!!

Great review. I have a Samsung Gear S3 and have been waiting to upgrade because Samsung has only made minor updates through the years. I thought this would be the year to get into a new Samsung watch, but the lackluster fitness tracking and the incredibly poor battery life convinced me to go with a Garmin Venu 2. I get 10 days of battery life and amazing fitness tracking including coaching and building your own training plans. The only thing I lost was the ability to take calls from the watch. I liked that feature, but not enough to take such a hit on battery life.

[valeriea]

Amazing review. Was really interested in the BIA featured and was shocked by how close it seems to the much, much more expensive (professional?) option.

[TheresaMarieCain]

As a die hard 10+ year Samsung user it was "hard" to accept the devices shortcomings 😟 BUT it was great to see such a detailed comparison between other devices. It's a great pair to my S22 ultra and it has all I need to fit my lifestyle. Can't wait for it to catch up to Apple Watch! Great deal at T-mobile... trade in old galaxy, get credit, purchase newer phone and get the watch free

[TheOneWhiteST]

Much appreciated! Going to purchase one today on the way home. Was a iPhone user a few months ago and had the Watch 3, wasn't too impressed. Unsure to what I'm looking to get out of this watch, but the entire package for the 46mm GW classic seems the way to my heart. Looking forward to merging my phone to it. Thanks!!

[zckom]

If you are mentioning about water touch, please also mentioning about the water lock feature.

And you can change the data field for workout to show whatever you want in one page.

[SuicidalChocolateSK]

this video was so incredibly well made and informative, good job!

[mjjucutan]

Finally! A watch review that's really all about health and fitness!!! 😍

[me_asme]

I have watched so many reviews on this watch, this is by far the most helpful! Thank you heaps. I'll probably buy one tomorrow
