I can't believe they removed the rotating bezel. Pretty much the only reason I was a loyal Galaxy Watch user in the first place, as you can still use it in wet situations that would make it impossible to use the touchscreen.

In the 90s, everything was "Turbo". In the 2000s, everything was "HD". In the 2010s, everything was "smart" and today, everything is "Pro" haha

Tbh there's only so many times you can innovate what a watch looks like. Though as a Galaxy Watch 4 user, the rotating bezel is both a useful feature and adds to the look of the watch, shame they got rid of that

[SkazzyYT]

The lack of rotating bezel was a big dealbreaker for me. Probably one of the best features on the Watch4 Classic. If anything, now that it's being discounted that might be the model to get for someone who doesn't have either. They do share the same processor.

I'm sure other commentors have pointed some of this out, but as an owner, I had a couple of comments . . . 1st: when I Get the clasp set up the way I like it, it's set it and forget it (and quite comfy), but I do not like that it gets in the way of charging sometimes (I get around this by inverting it)

2nd: it does actually have a new sensor vs the previous gen, which is a temperature sensor. It doesn't do anything yet though, to be fair, but I'm sure it will. 🙂

Seeing Jake in forefront of a video where he is not at linus's new house is refreshing...

[dirtiestharry]

Seeing him how he struggled to figure out how deployment clasp works was kinda painful

[JamesABloomfield]

I've never seen someone screw up putting on a watch band so badly. Like no shade but you almost did it backwards 😆

[kadenk.]

Fun fact: In the truck word, the Ford F-150 Lightning Pro is the cheapest trim because it's actually for professionals (work truck with no fancy amenities).

[theredkoolaid]

You can really tell he’s never worn a traditional watch before

[RooseveltTheDog]

"They look the same as the old ones" says someone using an Apple Watch.

[myrolas]

I upgraded from the galaxy watch 1 42mm to the 5 pro and I honestly don't miss the rotating bezel as it always got gunked up with dirt and pulling off the bezel to clean wasn't too bad but it's hard to keep track of all the little balls.

[LaidBackDeveloper]

The battery life upgrade ALONE is worth the upgrade. over 3-4 DAYS of battery life in a single charge WITHOUT a battery saver enabled! Also we have upgraded materials TITANIUM casing on the 5 pro and sapphire crystal covering the display in both watch 5 and 5 pro. Also the watch 5 / 5pro now feature a temperature sensor which is nice.

[CaptainTShirt]

Just like any other tech product, never upgrade unless something broke on your previous device. The real smart move is to keep things going - repair them, service them. Marketing will always try to sway you to spend money unnecessarily.

[DanielGyimesi]

Still think that my galaxy watch 4 classic is way better than any of these for one simple reason: the rotating bezel is mechanical, and not just software and vibrations.

[igame]

I love how the end of the gateway to the sponsor is the most replayed section

[lehatanpc]

that's the type of clasp that's used on luxury watches like Omega. not sure if it would be the same quality but I'm impressed by the design of the band

[raxcentalruthenta]

I absolutely love my Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. It's by far the best watch I've ever used. Also, that band is the most convenient band there is really. It's not as much of a problem as you're trying to make it out to be.

[habitatLP]

I just bought a Watch 4 classic as a replacement for my Gear S3 (that still works fine after 4 years btw.) I didn't bother with the 5 because the rotating bezel is gone. This feature is so good. It feels great to interact with the watch using the lunette plus you don't smear all over the screen all the time and you can interact with it while wearing gloves. Round watches look great with the round screen and the lunette was THE killerfeature to buy one from Samsung imho. I hope they are going to add it again in the future

[spazzer]

I actually love the new watch band for the pro. I like the look and how easy it is to put on once sized. The magnetic piece at the bottom does not bother me at all. The battery is great on the pro. It lasts two nights and three days where my watch 4 did not even last the full day.
