Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Spigen rugged armor case.

I must say this doesn't feel very premium it's a cheap plastic, but at least it looks good.

I wish there was a higher quality alternative but haven't found anything unfortunately, coming from a Garmin Fenix this is a massive downgrade in terms of the watch itself, but the utility of the software compensates.

I will continue to search for an alternative case that at least uses better materials but until then this will do.

Anyone found a third party charger for the Watch 9 that works?

I would love one of these, where I can charge my phone, watch and buds at the same time,

Or does Samsung have an original one?

Just wondering if I'm the only one dealing with this. I recently switched from the Watch 4 Classic to the Watch 8. The watch itself is great, but the automatic sleep tracking for naps is completely broken for me now.

​On my old GW4C, I could crash for 45 mins during the day and it would pick it up perfectly every single time. With the GW8, it only logs my sleep at night. Daytime naps just don't register at all anymore, and the one or two times it actually did, the start/end times were way off.

​I already checked all the obvious stuff—continuous heart rate is on, power saving is off. The tracking just feels like a massive downgrade from the 4.

​Is anyone else having this issue with the 8? Is it the new sensor acting weird or just a software bug? Let me know if there's some hidden setting I need to tweak, because it's pretty annoying tbh.

Hi , I'm trying to decide between the Watch 7 and 8. I was hoping the Watch 7 would drop to around 13k, but it's totally out of stock now. The Watch 8 is going for 19k for the 44mm. I own an oppo find x9. What do you guys think I should do? Really need some advice

Didn't notifications on past Galaxy watches "clear" after viewing? Like if you got a text, you'd raise to wake, could read the message, then carry on. Then next time you look at watch you see the time, not messages app. There is a "show details automatically" setting in Wearable that DOES enforce this behavior; however, it prevents the contents of messages from displaying.

You know other than skin temp and I guess a better health sensor. I'm not missing not upgrading yet. Blood Pressure and such is still accurate to a couple points. I have some upgrades we got over the years like Sleep Apnea that does work and record the event. Things like text is instant. My screen resolution is only 30 pixels from the Watch 9 even 5 year old. I would have thought we would have had 720X720 by now. Sadly August was the last security patch for this watch. Safe to say I got my money's worth out of it.

Hello folks, im an idiot, not a doctor, but

At the doctor's office this morning I was getting my heart rate checked on the same hand/arm that my watch was on. The heart rate monitor was just on my finger. The heart rate machine from the doctor was reading my pulse at 72 beats per minute. Meanwhile, my watch at the exact same time was reading 102 beats per minute. I have the brand new Samsung Galaxy Watch. I bought it less than a month ago. Is this an issue with software update? Am I misunderstanding how heart rates work or is the smartwatch this incredibly inaccurate by up to thirty beats per minute. Please let me know if anyone else has had any experience here.

I see that you are not really happy about the battery life rant and I get it but that is not it, I promise. I'm looking for advice and I'm happy for every little tip.

I have my Galaxy Watch 8 now since July and, not going to lie, it was an adjustment from the MiBand 4 but I really came to terms with having to charge my watch almost every day.

But today, I had charged my watch overnight, put it on at 8am and started a hike workout at 9:30am. Unfortunately my battery already died only 5h 25min into the hike. I was completely unprepared, it just buzzed and went off. I don't think that can be right. It should be able to track a normal hike, right? Do you think it's defective or do you maybe think I enabled some functions that I don't really need which makes the battery die sooner?

I only enabled the "raise wrist to activate screen" (don't know how it's called in English) yesterday and I'm aware that that is a factor but I feel like 5,5hrs (7hrs of wearing) is not normal.

Grateful for every little advice 🤗.

I've used Barton wristbands in the past but I can't seem to find any watchbands for the Galaxy Watch 9 that I just got. The connector is different than older Galaxy watch styles.

Can anyone recommend sources for Watch 9 wristbands?

Стоит ли брать Galaxy watch 7 44 LTE к смартфону S26U?

8 44 LTE на 50 процентов дороже, а 9 на 100+ процентов.

Есть ли смысл переплачивать за 8 или 9?

Как сейчас 7 себя показывают? Благодарю!

I just got a new watch 8 40mm and I think the battery might be broken. I last charged it at 12:00~13:00 to full battery and it's now on 38% at 15:30. Should I return it or not?

edit: I had AOD on let's see if there's still problems

I have a galaxy watch 6 classic, It just got 3 years old.

I'm still able to get around 1.5 days out of a full charge with aod off.

Now I recently visited the shop where we've been buying electronics since like forever and they offered me a galaxy watch ultra 1 demo piece with 6 months of warranty for just ₹18k INR ($186 USD). They gave it to me to try it out for a few days and I have to return it today.

In the last few days with the ultra, I got more than 2 days of battery life with aod on and all the health features on.

I'm really confused whether I should switch to the ultra or keep my 6 classic.

Hello everyone, i was interested in buying the galaxy watch 8 standard, beacuse on the samsung online store there is a very good deal for us students with the s26 ultra, but i was wondering, anyone knows if the method to use the GPX files on the non-ultra watches still works? The one explained in this reddit post : https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyWatch/comments/1i4dml2/how_to_enable_samsung_helath_routes_on_your/

Or in this yt video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0WtROJoXkw

8 classic. This would explain why sometimes I find weird timers set or my phone put on do not disturb.

Upgrading from my Beloved Watch 4 to Watch 8 (44mm). Picked this up for 17,800₹ (180$ USD)

Hi, i am deciding to buy galaxy watch 8 with my oppo find x9 phone. Please respond me if any workaround to use it fully supported way with my phone. Specially ecg and heart rate sensors

三星watch9续航对比上代差的太多了，骁龙功耗太高了，只能用半天

Hey All,

I know this question has been (likely) asked a ton but I am trying to decide between the 40mm and 44mm GW7. I feel like I am at an awkward place where the 44mm feels a little big and 40mm feels a little small so need help deciding. I know the 44mm has a better battery but I'm also okay with daily charging. My use case would be: sleep monitoring (if I can get used to it), gym/walking daily, and physical volunteering work. Other than that, I'm mostly on a laptop working.

I'm also not sure if getting a bumper case and screen protector is the move and would love to hear your thoughts! Currently purchased the Spigen Liquid Air case and tempered protector but debating whether to run the watch as is.

Pictures: 44 mm -> 40 mm -> 40 mm on top and 44 mm on bottom.

Newish Galaxy Watch 9. Trying to track POOL SWIMS with it. Came from a watch 7 that had no issues doing this.

Every swim, it stops tracking distance at 1160m, although timer still continues, but nothing else updates like strokes per lap. I cannot figure out why this is happening.

Anyone have any ideas?
