Samsung Galaxy Watch4 40mm Silver SM-R860NZSAXNZ review

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4’s sharp design, smart software and standout health sensor make for a promising upgrade that somehow costs less than last year’s version. Plus the Classic model still offers everyone’s favorite rotating bezel.
Pros:
  • Slimmer design and new watch faces, New Wear OS feels like Tizen, but with more apps, First major smartwatch with body composition analysis, More affordable than Galaxy Watch 3
Cons:
  • Concerns with BIA sensor, Battery life can be inconsistent

Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 4 R860 (40mm, Silver) - BRAND NEW review

There's no doubting that the Galaxy Watch 4 is another solid smartwatch from Samsung. It's slick, looks good and performs well in most departments. This is supposed to be a Samsung smartwatch, with Google software flowing through it, but right now it feels very familiar.
Pros:
  • Nice, minimalist design, Good price, Feature packed, Slick performance

Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 4 R860 (40mm, Black) - BRAND NEW review

Really good, can easily receive and make calls. Can read incoming messages and emails and reply using surprisingly accurate voice-to-text. Waterproof so don't need to take it off to shower. Finally a useful smart watch, will be better when Google Assistant app comes

Only nitpicks are: Battery could be a little better (but isnt too bad) No Google Assistant (yet.. 2021/10) No way to proactively send FB/WhatsApp messages tho replies are available (yet.. 2021/10) But what the watch does do it does very well :)

Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 4 R860 (40mm, Silver) - BRAND NEW review

So my previous watch was a Samsung Galaxy Active which was great until I went swimming with it and it is really NOT waterproof so lesson learned on that one and this one is not coming swimming with me! The Samsung Galaxy 4 is a great improvement.

Samsung Galaxy Watch4 Review

The Samsung Galaxy Watch4 is the best Android-compatible smartwatch for the price, offering the same specs and features as the Classic model for $100 less. Samsung made significant changes to its smartwatch lineup this year, switching from Tizen to Wear OS, rebranding its Active line, and following Apple's lead by releasing two models to accommodate different budgets. Its efforts have paid off, as the $249.99 Galaxy Watch4 and the $349.99 Watch4 Classic are the best Samsung watches to date. The Galaxy Watch4, reviewed here, is the company's answer to the Apple Watch SE. But unlike the SE, which looks the same as the Series 6 but lacks some its key features, the Watch4 does everything the Classic model can, but is made of aluminum instead of stainless steel and has a digital bezel instead of a physical one. It offers notable upgrades from the Watch3, including a faster processor for smoother scrolling, a higher-resolution display for crisper visuals, expanded memory for music and app storage, a sensor that can measure your body fat, and the ability to track your snoring. Attractively designed, feature-rich, and priced right, the Samsu...
Pros:
  • Competitively priced
  • Bright, sharp display
  • Thinner than the Classic model
  • Fast processor
  • Wrist-based body fat and composition measurements
  • Tracks snoring
  • More third-party apps than previous Samsung watches
Cons:
  • One-day battery life
  • Third-party app selection still trails Apple's watchOS

Great watch. My wife loves it. A fairly steep learning curve for those a little ‘technically’ developing.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 4 R860 (40mm, Black) - BRAND NEW review

The Wear OS-powered Galaxy Watch 4 acts as the perfect equivalent of an Apple Watch but for the Android ecosystem. However, although it's a great wearable that would fit just about anybody, the Galaxy Watch 4 fails to deliver in one key aspect that's ultimately the most important feature of a...
Pros:
  • Stylish design, Bright and vivid OLED display, Excellent health tracking, Wear OS is a great match, Good haptic feedback
Cons:
  • One-day battery life at best, Gimmicky capacitive rotating bezel, No Google Assistant support yet
