Samsung's Galaxy Watch has an arguably superior design to Apple's Watch Series 4. Battery life is good
It's fully waterproof and you can get hundreds of watch faces for it. Samsung has improved its software and enhanced its fitness tracking. Spotify prem

Feels really solid
A good looking circular smartwatch

Amazing battery life
A bigger smartwatch for folks who like big watches

The editors didn't like
The Bixby voice-assistant could be better. Samsung has quashed some bugs but not all. To achieve Samsung's battery life numbers
You have to institute battery-saving measures
Bixby underwhelming
Lacks third-party software support
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

Attractive Design, Durable And Water Resistant, Highly Customizable, Buttery Smooth Performance
Somewhat Pricey, Some Minor Software Hiccups, A Little Thick
We really like Samsung's new Galaxy Watch. Samsung has improved upon or refined almost every aspect of the device versus its previous-gen wearables. Our experience using the Galaxy Watch daily was pleasurable, overall. The device offers excellent battery...
Lasts up to five days on a single charge, Crisp AMOLED screen, Rotating bezel, Accurate heart rate monitor, Resistant to dust and water,
Expensive, 46mm version is chunky, Fitness tracking accuracy not up to par in testing

Comfortable fit with standard strap, Buttons and dial are easy (and fun) to use, Classic yet current look and feel, Automatic activity tracking is simple and helpful, Tizen is smooth and ready for prime-time
Doesn't come in all-black, Needs 4 apps to connect to non-Samsung Android, Limited functionality with iPhone, No MST for Samsung Pay (uses NFC instead)
The Samsung Galaxy Watch is an extremely capable piece of hardware, and a pretty great companion for my phone. This is the first smartwatch with which I've not gotten annoyed at for its less-than-intuitive user interface, or its lack of usable apps. Here...

Handsome water-resistant design Great battery life Excellent OLED screen Mostly accurate sleep tracking
Bixby is a lousy assistant, Workout tracking can be finicky, S Health companion app needs work
The Galaxy Watch is Samsung's most fleshed-out smartwatch yet, and the company's fans won't find a better wearable. With that said, the new things Samsung added to its smartwatch formula -- Bixby and stress tracking especially -- fell short of their poten...
Available in Bluetooth and 4G LTE variants, Two sizes available, Almost four-day battery life, Interchangeable watch straps, Samsung Pay, Outstanding OLED display
Bixby is still meh, No MST for Samsung Pay, only NFC, Not very comfortable to wear at night
The Galaxy Watch is a very compelling wearable; it seems to effectively check every box out there. From price and functionality to battery life and even product and service compatibility. The Galaxy Watch is compatible with all Android smartphones running...
Elegant, classy design, Vibrant display, Solid metal construction, Packed with features, Good fitness/sleep tracker, Samsung Pay support is awesome, Tizen is sleek and intuitive, Bluetooth/LTE connectivity, Wireless charging
Bixis unreliable, Very little internal storage
The Galaxy Watch tries to be a smartwatch that does a little bit of everything. Samsung's execution isn't flawless, but it balances the act of being a fitness tracker and smartwatch in one package extremely well...

Stylish design, Long battery life, Good fitness features, Built-in music storage
Few apps for Tizen, Bixby far less capable than Google Assistant
For its battery life alone, the Samsung Galaxy Watch is the best smartwatch for Android users. Being able to go four days without a recharge is reason enough to pick up this device. We also really like the Tizen interface, which is intuitive and easy to n...
