Review on 💪 Experience Advanced Health and Fitness Tracking with Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic 42mm Smartwatch - GPS, ECG Monitor, Sleep Cycles, Fall Detection, and Bluetooth - Black US Version by Quay Phim Quang Cng ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

You should not take it, it does not meet any standards.

I switched from the first version of the Galaxy Watch, I compare it. There are really more applications for wearos, but there are no necessary companions for whatsapp or a telegram (it seems there is a viber in the market, I haven’t tried it). Right off the bat, the watch is less convenient than with Taizen, because some convenient widgets (tiles for wearos) are missing, for example, a calendar sheet for a month. For some reason, the Samsung calendar on wearos was not made such a widget, look for a replacement in the market by downloading it blindly. The clock refused to charge from charging from the first version, after 10 seconds they write "charging paused", this is a vile piggy of course. From a Samsung external battery (with a wireless platform), they agreed at least. The charging magnet is weak, in the bag the watch will fall off the pad Strap fastening 20mm (collect again as all large watches use 22mm). The original strap is nothing like that, not as rough as that of some mi band, but the material of the strap from the first version of the galaxy was more pleasant to the touch, more elastic. Also, the horns of the original strap at the attachment point prevent it from turning and fitting to the hand without a tubercle. Installing applications from the google play market is inconvenient. Even after switching from the selection for wearos, you still need to remember to switch the device to the watch, otherwise it will put the phone version. After clicking on "install", it says that the application will be installed later. Whether it is downloading or waiting for the approval of the CIA / FSB is not clear, but at some point the application is installed. Replaced circular controls with regular grids: 1. I liked the application menu more in a circle, it fit better under the bezel. The new one is more comfortable under the finger. It is not clear why in a watch with GB of RAM and ROM, a monstrous OS, a multi-core processor and a bunch of Google services, there was no place for styling the main menu. 2. Entering a PIN, it would be possible to make the 3x4 grid larger, and it’s easier to hit even with a finger in the old round version. Now, after entering the numbers, you need to click OK, which is not very convenient. Change past versions - definitely not!

Pros
  • Nicer on the hand than the first version (there is matte plastic on the wall) Samsung pay works (also worked on Taizen) How does the headset work well so far (!) (Tizen also worked well for the first year, then it became stupid and in 2/3 cases did not turn on the microphone with the speaker) The watch began to connect to the phone via Wi-Fi (it didn’t work for me on Taizen)
Cons
  • There are no advantages of wearos (in the vile version) over tizen for the user, there was little software, there was little, but something else. The preinstalled calendar got worse. There are fewer useful widgets/tiles. The life time is not the worst (2 days with a drop after the first full charge), but much worse than the first version of the watch The most annoying thing: incompatibility with third-party chargers, and even with the vile charger from the first version of the galaxy watch ! All changes associated with the strap relative to previous versions are for the worse. The Play market for installing applications is worse than the galaxy store (which, however, was dumb on my Taizen and after switching to the 5th version, it stopped displaying key applications) For some reason, they left a stupid animation / delay in displaying the contents of the notification. 1-2 seconds between showing a notification with the push title and the body text. Honor / Mi bands display instantly, and smart watches marinate the user.
