Review on SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch (46Mm by Li Mei ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

In general, it's pretty good, an equal number of pros and cons.

I am a long time fan of the Samsung company, I have been using their equipment for a long time. The watch left a controversial impression, everything is well conceived, the implementation of course is lame. I would not recommend them for purchase, too many "buts". The most important "but" is reliability, due to freezes and lags, I missed important calls several times, and then they stopped working altogether. Now I'm looking at Garmin.

Pros
  • 1. Universal design, suitable for any style of clothing. 2. A lot of fitness modes, I didn’t even use all of them. 3. Own memory, which is convenient for listening to music with bluetooth headphones without using your phone. 4. The built-in microphone helped out when it was necessary to urgently answer the call, and the hands were busy. 5. Water protection is real, swam with them in the pool several times. 6. I liked the work of the heart rate monitor, it monitors sleep very accurately, specially noted the time when I fell asleep and woke up, the clock has an error of 3-5 minutes.
Cons
  • 1. The main disadvantage is the unreliability of the watch. In the first 3 months of use, there were some freezes when scrolling through widgets. Six months later, the watch stopped activating the screen when raising the wrist, I had to constantly press the button, and also stopped measuring the pulse. I contacted Samsung under warranty - they replaced the motherboard. Everything seems to be working fine, a couple of times there were some kind of freezes and jamming of the interface. After another 7 months after replacing the board, the watch itself turned off at 22% of the charge and it was not possible to turn it on anymore, they try to boot - the galaxy watch inscription is displayed and goes out. When the charging station is connected, the charge level is displayed, after that the clock goes out and that's it. 2. Controversial autonomy. The manufacturer claims to work up to 7 days from a single charge, in fact 3 days, while not using any training modes. Even when I turned off everything that was possible, they worked for 4.5 days, in fact, in notification and clock mode. 3. Watch app store. Yes, there are a lot of applications and watch faces, but they are all stupid. 90% of the dials are full of slag. Third-party applications work through some kind of crutches, some do not work at all, constant crashes.
