Hands on: Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is a standard premium smartwatch, and it has both the perks and the drawbacks of such devices. It’s hardy and good-looking, with loads of useful features, and a rotating bezel that works especially well for navigating menus. However, it costs a lot, and won’t sit well on all wrists, even average-sized ones.

Rotating bezel works well; Plenty of health features;

Pricier than sibling; Doesn’t fit all wrists

The Galaxy Watch 4 is Samsung’s best smartwatch to date, but annoying restrictions mean it’s less appealing than it should be

Impressive performance; Access to more apps than before; Attractively priced;

Mediocre battery life; No ECG unless you have a Samsung phone; Doesn’t offer all Wear OS features;

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic sees most of the best bits of the Galaxy Watch 3 grafted onto Google’s Wear OS software. Pretty much all the best new bits are down to Samsung not Google, even in the redesigned software. It lasts less long than the Galaxy Watch 3 off a charge, although you may have a better experience if you buy the larger 46mm version. So, is it a downgrade? No, we need to take a wider view here. Samsung’s top watches use Wear OS, soon Fitbit’s ones will too. As much as we like Samsung’s old Tizen software, it was never an apps and features powerhouse. The Galaxy Watch 4 Classic already has access to more apps, and the future of the platform looks brighter than ever. And, hey, even if Wear OS does end up heading nowhere all that exciting in the next couple of years, Samsung has already done enough to make this the number Apple Watch alternative. Particularly for Samsung phone owners.

Good fitness tracking; The best Wear OS watch to date; Retains plenty of Samsung flavour ;

Short battery life in 42mm version; Some interface quirks during exercise; Compatibility restrictions for non-Samsung phones;

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

The best smartwatch on the market right now, hampered only by the fact that some of its latest and greatest features are exclusive to Samsung Galaxy users. You also pay a premium for that Classic styling.

Wear OS works better than ever; Tasteful, tactile design; Feature-packed; Great performance;

Some Samsung phone-exclusive features; Price premium for Classic styling; Wear OS 3 with caveats;

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic has all the traits of a premium smartwatch, but it falls short in a few key areas. While its rotating bezel makes navigation a breeze, and it ticks lots of boxes in terms of fitness and software, it’s fiddly to control when you’re working out, its battery life is awful, and while these issues might be justifiable to a degree in a budget wearable, they’re hard to take in a watch that’s billed as a premium device.

Rotating bezel feels intuitive for navigation; Solid build; Display looks great;

Battery life is awful; Exorbitant price; Workout controls are fiddly

Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 4 Stainless R880 (42mm, Black) - BRAND NEW review

If we’re honest, Android has never had a great smartwatch option to rival the Apple Watch. In a bid to change that, Samsung and Google partnered up to create Wear OS 4 and, with it, the Galaxy Watch 4. And, in a few words? It’s a beautiful Frankenstein monster. And, the best Wear OS watch yet.

The best Wear OS watch yet, Wear OS apps!, Runs super smooth

Samsung apps required for non-Samsung phones, Not all features work on non-Samsung phones, Bixby only

Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 4 Stainless R880 (42mm, Black) - BRAND NEW review

This watch is my first smartwatch and I"m LOVING IT. The battery lasts me a full day and night + a little bit more. Its fast, I love the One UI x Wear OS combo, and the watch looks good on my wrist. The use of apps like samsung pay and spotify make this watch a great quality of life improvement.

I would love to rate this watch higher. Loverly watch, beautiful design and display. But the battery estimate is 1Day and 5Hours. And 1Day 12Hours with Powesave on. My old Samsung galaxy watch 1st gen lasted at least 2 days.
