Expectations were not met, average quality.

I dare to suggest that a number of the shortcomings mentioned above might not have happened if I had paired Samsung with Samsung, but "alarm clock - alarm clock", "notifications - notifications", and such moments as an electronic store, lack of messages, unnecessary body movements with training - left a negative precipitate due to which perhaps it will be a fit for someone on NG on ebay.

CONCLUSION: The watch is undeniably good. But provided that this is a direct optimization of the “brand with a brand”, i. E. Samsung with Samsung. If you try to pair with Honor / Huawei / Mi / Poco and others, you will encounter 80% of the described jambs.

I described everything in more detail in the review - unpacking: 
who are interested can take a look.

I wish you all successful shopping, and don't forget about the thumbs UP 😉💪

Pros

- Microphone, speaker Compared to AW 5, it's a bit squeaky, but the volume is “behind the eyes”. You hear and the interlocutor hears. - Always Display It is activated in two clicks, more precisely from the top swipe (Control-center). For comparison in the "apple" - for this you need to climb into the settings. - IP68 Shower, bath - easy. After water procedures, water is driven out with the comments “shake me”. Respect to the developers for this, at Apple I figured it out myself. — NFC I thought there would be dancing, but in fact everything started in 5 minutes: I installed the first plugin from the Play Market and added all the cards through the Galaxy Watch application. Works! - Photo export 4GB on board. Transfer any photo from your smartphone to your watch in 10 seconds. (through the same Galaxy Watch app) — Synchronization of video-audio Any video or audio content - no delays, everything is synchronous and smooth (Volume, next / pre track, stop / pause) – Bezel It's the same ring / edging around the display. There was an experience with TicWatch - there it is static. Here I really liked it, because there is no need to poke the sensor once again. Class. - Landing on the arm, weight The plastic case in total 42mm gives a good and almost imperceptible fit on the wrist. Yes, if we take the same Apple Watch S3 as a comparison, there, due to the lack of a bezel, the screen seems larger. But here it is purely about fit, wear and comfort of use, and it is good.

Cons

- Connection stability, range There are suspicions that this is a flaw in brand optimization (matched with Poco X3). After removing from charging, be sure to make sure that the connection is established. Sometimes there are spontaneous dumps (reverse vibration on the wrist signals this). After 2-3 days, notifications (messages, messengers) stably stop coming. It is treated by rebooting the smartphone. I ated the firmware of the watch and the smartphone - it did not help. - Apps messages, pulse They are not, from the word at all. The pulse can only be measured by adding a separate widget. I don’t measure so often, but take the same Tic Watch Pro 2022 or Apple - everything is in separate applications there. - Charger Enough for a day at: in the morning 30 min. sports (-5.8%), always On Always Display, notifications (activity rings and sometimes messengers) By the evening 25-30%. There is no point in saving - by lunchtime the next day will go to 0. Charging is very long ~ 2.5 hours. There is heating on the back surface. — Galaxy Store BOTTOM. In addition to paid dials, there is no sensible software. From words at all. No Shazam, no voice recorder, no Telegram, NOTHING. If you are a fan of dials, prepare a coin: for each 35-100 — Alarm clock, timer Do not change to hours. A friend has the same ones working with S20 - says the alarm goes off. I have no. Neither reboot nor ates help (the slider in the settings is activated) - Swipe from below. Thanks to the developers for getting rid of the water, but here . There is no bottom swipe. ONLY: left/right - desktops. Top Control center. Strange but true. The bottom side button is configured for quick access to almost any application. - Voice Assistant The claim is “from the category” of the swipe from below. There is a speaker and a microphone, but there is NO assistant. — Implementation of training modes There are a lot of them and that's good. More than Apple and TicWatch combined (but I must admit a lot of stupid ones). "-" in that there is NO separate application again! There is ONLY a widget for 4 selected exercises. If you want something else: Press => Edit => Delete => Add NEW.
