  • Bixis unreliable
  • Very little internal storage
  • Tizen has an almost total lack of apps. Watch faces are a little better
  • But you're still not going to have as many options as Wear OS

  • Bixby is still meh
  • No MST for Samsung Pay
  • Only NFC
  • Not very comfortable to wear at night

  • 46mm version is chunky
  • Fitness tracking accuracy not up to par in testing
  • Always-on watch face kills the battery
  • Charges too slowly
  • Masculine design narrows appeal
  • Third-party apps are generally horrible
  • The Bixby voice-assistant could be better. Samsung has quashed some bugs but not all. To achieve Samsung's battery life numbers

  • Feels really solid, A good looking circular smartwatch, Great rotational controls that work well with touchscreen, Amazing battery life, A bigger smartwatch for folks who like big watches, Works on both iOS and Android
  • Technically a minor evolution compared to the two year old Gear S3, Tizen feels underused, and there aren't enough apps available for it, Samsung ditched its magnetic payment technology (MST) in Samsung Pay in this watch
  • With a battery that goes for days, Samsung has built a modern smartwatch for people who love extending their notifications to their wrist, though it's one with a catch: the Galaxy Watch doesn't feel as smart as it probably should.You can call it a problem...

  • For starters, its Bluetooth range seems pretty inadequate. It often disconnects from my phone, whether its my personal phone, or the Note 9 supplied with the review unit. For another, it rarely wants to connect over WiFi despite setting it up many times...

  • Great battery life, Solid interface
  • Bixby underwhelming, Lacks third-party software support
  • Still, if you're the kind of user who digs where non-Apple smartwatches are at, you'll probably get a lot out of the Galaxy Watch. It's got every smartwatch feature you could want and some of the best battery life out there. Unfortunately, a tendency to p...

  • Superb battery life, Great display, Good price
  • Bulky, Few new features
  • Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Watch improves on the Gear S3 in every conceivable way. Battery life, in particular, is stellar and the watch also fills adds the only significant hole in the Gear S3's feature set – swim tracking. Bar a few annoying bugs, ther...
