Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is completely satisfied, performs its functions.

I got this to replace my Watch3, whose battery had entirely expired after only three years of use. There were no issues with the program stuffing, despite the many nasty evaluations that were published. It would appear that WearOS has been completed, as a result, everything was immediately connected, activated (using the phone - Samsung S21 Ultra), all notifications are received, the connection does not break, etc. The control is virtually identical to that of Tizen, and there is once again no pain. Although it's true that for some reason the buttons were switched, this is complete and utter nonsensical. Here comes the awful news. The horrible strap was only missed by those who were too sluggish to look. It has an inexpensive appearance, does not work at all with such a watch, and is difficult to replace because, for some inexplicable reason, the distance between the lugs was altered. Watch3 had a diameter of 22 millimeters, while Watch4 was supposed to be 20 millimeters but was actually closer to 19 millimeters. Because of this, no metal bands with a width of 20 millimeters will fit there, and I will have to get rid of the fashionable bracelet from Watch3. The only solution is to use specialized adapters, which can be purchased on AliExpress for one penny each. The lengthy charging period is another deterrent, taking approximately three hours to go from 10 to 100 percent capacity. It's true that in contrast to the Watch3, these may all be charged from a single wireless charger at the same time. Yet, there are no specific queries concerning the cost, and two days are deducted from the total. The biometric sensors have their own independent existence. If the pulse sensor in the Watch3 just stopped working, then this is where it blatantly lingers, inaccurately calculating the heart rate by 20–40 beats (there is a suspicion that the light hits the sensor again due to an unsuccessful strap, the back wall does not fit well to the arm). It is not necessary to discuss the electrocardiogram or blood pressure at this time. It was a letdown to see the bezel become "bare" and seem significantly less attractive than it did on Watch3. Nonetheless, it fits more securely and functions more clearly. And it was discovered that WearOS only offers a limited selection of watch faces that are worth looking at. The information-packed face is something I'm used to seeing, but WearOS doesn't have anything comparable. Moreover, it is now difficult to pay for paid dials. We will have to hold off until they release fresh versions.

Pros
  • In spite of the concerns, WearOS operates without any problems, and the battery life can last for several days. The bezel around the glass provides additional security for the sturdy case.
Cons
  • Horrible strap. When it comes to lying, biometric sensors are the worst. The "bald" bezel appears even more unattractive than it did on the Watch3.
