Samsung Galaxy Watch4 Classic Bluetooth(4.2 cm, Black, Compatible with Android Only)

Definitely buy it for the looks as there isn’t a smart watch that looks better than this.
UI and pairing with Samsung smartphone is a breeze. Calling is very clear and loud enough via watch. Plethora of watch faces, especially with the facer app.
Pretty good in workout tracking, battery could have been better, gives about a day on full charge, although only LTE mode battery is 5, 6 hours tops although I haven’t tested it much in that configuration, watch does heat up in North Indian summers(37°C) in LTE mode even after 5, 10 mins of a phone call thus going into cooldown mode.
I am fully satisfied with my purchase even though it did cost me good chunk.

I loved this watch. There are a lot of pros and cons to this watch. But over all, it’s a good one and probably a better buy until galaxy watch 5 comes down to better pricing.

Pros :
1 software : what a smooth UI. What an experience. It feels so smooth and responsive to the touch, and there is an option to increase touch sensitivity too if needed. Really good and cohesive UI especially with samsung phones, this will go well. It is compatible with other android phones too. The animations and gestures are fast and don’t feel bad. There’s a touch sensitive bezel, like the classic galaxy watch has a rotating bezel. I haven’t tried the classic watch so I can’t say how this feature is in comparison to that. But I mostly don’t use the bezel scroll,as it is not so intuitive to me. Depends from person to person. The other side to this is that the touch and response is so good on the screen you don’t mind using it more.
2 Display : it has a very bright and sharp display. A delight to look at. Under bright sunlight also everything is visible properly. I sent a few photos to the watch. They’re so good. Context, they were all nature photos shot in s20 fe and on the watch they do look tiny but zooming in doesn’t distort or blurr the image. The sharpness is retained along with color quality. Over all amazing display from samsung as usual.
3 design : teh design of this watch is nothing short of premium. Everything from the materials used to the finishing to the straps all feels top notch. No doubt it is a sturdy watch. Can survive moderate to little rough usage. And the straps are user removable, you can remove them yourself. No need of any tool or taking to the shop. You can add third party straps as per your wish and style choices. All these straps have the same removable design and hence it is really good. If you don’t like the look of the watch, or bored of it, simply change the straps. The whole watch body is made of metal alloy which feels robust but is also very light.

Cons.
1 : battery. The watch battery is usually very small to begin with but other brand watches usually last around 5-7 days on a single charge. But this lasts 2 days on low usage and 1 day on heavy usage. And the bundled charger is very slow in charging it. Takes 2 hours to full.
2 workout monitoring : the heart rate tracking, sleep monitoring, stress system, even body mass composition features all of them are really good. Really really accurate too. They’re pretty close to the real world. But my only gripe (it’s nitpicking) is that there isn’t a proper workout tracking or detecting features. Walking running are detected automatically and recorded as exercise sessions. It even has GPS to get accurate distance walked or ran. The watch supports a lot of different workouts like swimming, cycling, walking and running and many many more. But it can only detect a few automatically, others you have to select yourself. I personally do more weight training and strength gym. I had to always select the particular workout I was doing and only then it could track it. Extra step is annoying but it’s personal really. This watch is so fitness oriented that it even has a swimming mode where in you can wear it for a swim and it will track your session and the screen won’t respond to touches and you have to disable it by long pressing the home button and it will eject the water in speakers with a high frequency sound. It also has sleep tracking that is really good.

Over all I would say getting it under 10k is really good. I have the Bluetooth version not LTE. LTE also needs esim to work. There really is no other smart watch in this price range that comes close to this one in every aspect. Go for it, its an all round amazing watch.

I was really concerned about its battery backup. When i buyed this watch i use to keep a lot of features on like Always on Display, WiFi… and it was not giving a good battery backup. But if you turn off its AoD the backup is of 20 to 24 hours which is very good for me even if i keep the bluetooth, gps turned on.
Happy with this product till now(1 month of use). It helps me a lot to monitor my workout activity at gym. The display quality is also very good.

Looks very nice
Feels very good in hand
Features are also good
The battery backup is like 8am to 8pm
And
It has only one option to charge that iz wireless charging and that’s slow
Overall experience is very good
