Even though battery life is the common complaint in smart watches you really have to look at the big picture. These things have higher specs than home desktop computers had in the early 2000s. The fact that they can even go up to two days without a charge is genuinely impressive especially considering I have to charge my cellphone about every one to two days.

It's crazy to me that a watch has more RAM than a vast majority of Home Computers had in the early 2000's.

Good review, thanks! I actually love the battery life on my watch 4 Classic. I run always on display and tilt to wake, and it lasts a full day with like 20% to spare at the end of the night. That's with a 4 mile run at the start of the day. So that's good enough for me. I can use it to its fullest. I charge it every night like my phone, no big deal for me. Never tried to do multiple days, though!

Best fitness tracker

Love this watch so far - I have had it for a week now. It detects my physical exertion while cleaning the yard and garage and counts it as "other workout" including heart rate and calories, which is helpful in counting all of my daily strenuous activity, even if it is not technically "exercise".

I have been thinking about getting this to go with my fold3, missed out on the new offer of a free watch4 when you buy the fold3, I did get £200 cashback which was nice. I think I will pick on of these watches up after this video, very I formative man. Keep it up

Hey man, don't be afraid to be honest about these things. It shows authenticity and that you actually care. I noticed during the video, you were a bit hesitant.

Just ordered this over the watch 5 I hope I made the right choice. Your video helped.

The bezel is clutch. Make it so much easier to operate the OS.

Seriously, Samsung's watch is unmatched. I still have the Galaxy Watch 2 (2014) and it works perfectly. That was before we could use the phone independent of the phone so that's the only down side of it. I just got the 4 so I guess I will keep this for almost 10 years lol.

Thank you. I have this watch and noticed the battery and thought maybe my battery was fried, but sounds like 2 days is the standard

[Brolly]

Thank you for your hard work ! it was a real useful video for me !

[j.w.grayson]

Excellent job on the review! Thanks for posting.

[Osayasir]

I just bought this watch and i gotta say this is probably the most luxury thing i had owned

[Burgundeh]

Thank you for making an actually helpful review!

Thanks for your review. Just curious how the battery life has held up a yr later. Read some reviews that battery life reduced to 4-6 hrs. Does it currently still give you 1 to 2 days of use without charging?

Amazing review man, really helpful 👍👍

Seems like you have small wrists like me, how do you like the 46 mm ? Looks good on your wrist

ROTATING BEZEL? Everyone blogs about the wonderful rotating bezel as if it is a good thing. I was one of the first to get the new GW4 Classic. Loved the concept of the rotating bezel and the hefty look of the GW4 Classic at the time, but be aware that the bezel is a magnet for dust, soap, sweat, debris. I first noticed bezel problems from sawdust when cutting a 2x4 and then from flour baking over the holidays and also after dirt biking in the desert. When the satisfying rotating bezel stops rotating it is a game changer. I quickly went from loving the watch to hating it. One more thing to consider is that in most cases the classic bezel requires two finger operation (unless it is silky smooth which doesn't last). As you can expect, Samsung doesn't consider this issue a warranty claim and also emphasized that the bezel is NOT removable. After much disappointment I was ready to toss it in the trash. I decided I had nothing to lose so I attempted to remove the bezel to see what was causing the horrible resistance. I'm happy to say that the bezel is removable. It is a simple design. There are no wires or complicated parts that need calibration. Just clean it and put it back the way you it and clicks back into place. This process requires extreme care (small delicate parts) so only attempt at your own risk. Using a razor blade from a box cutter or a guitar pick may also work, I pried up the bezel. Underneath is a delicate plastic ring (remember what side is up when you remove the plastic ring). The plastic ring is not a complete circle...it has a break in it, but it is not broken so don't freak out. Next there are four of the smallest ball bearings you will ever see each sitting in small holes under the bezel and they are loose so prepare a good work area and don't tilt the watch if you can help it to prevent losing them. A white work surface is best to see them better. The ball bearings are the size of the head of a pin. I put the ball bearings and plastic ring in a safe place and started cleaning everything with toothpicks, Q tips rubbing alcohol and canned air (watch those ball bearings when using the canned air). There was very little obvious gunk...hardly any, but I cleaned it as if there was. reassembled it by putting the plastic ring in the bezel first then holding it over the watch and clicking it into place pressing down evenly not to lose the ball bearings. It clicking into place easily and the bezel now working again. It saved the watch from going in the trash. Still with the bezel finally rotating smoothly, It still takes two fingers to rotate (annoying to me) and I feel the bezel will likely build resistance again eventually. I decided to trade in my Classic for the GW4. There are great promotions going on now that allow me to get a new watch with a fresh battery for almost an even swap with trade-in. Sleeker design, lighter, resists crap better, fewer moving parts and one finger bezel operation is something to consider. Some may not have any issues with their bezels, but in everyday life I found it hard to avoid and I don't want to leave it at home. Just want to let you know. Still love the watch just and use it daily.
