This policy hasn't been updated since June 2020, but the watch waited until 6 weeks after it was set up before showing this, right after the return/refund window closed. Completely bricked, there's no way to bypass this notice without clicking Next.

Which smartwatch has the best / most accurate blood pressure / blood sugar monitoring?
i’d throw a recc from your own choices: GW6 and GW5 pro. both have accurate sensors for blood pressure and blood glucose. Other than the amazfit is a decent one if you dont want to spend as much. As for samsung, it’s a trusted brand. has strong support in Europe. and samsung actually went through pr...
Am i going colorblind?
None of the Galaxy Watch Ultra models have a true black midframe. The Silver and Dark Grey variants have grey midframes while the white one is white. The product images area all pretty misleading on the true colors of the devices. For example, that last image you have there has the band matching the...
Giving up on Samsung's poor GPS
I am a runner, also, and I totally understand your frustration. I am insanely fussy about GPS accuracy. After having a GW5 44mm (for less than a week!), I swore I'd never bother with Samsung again on that front, it was that bad. That is, until the GW Ultra came out and every major wearable-tech revi...
The privacy nightmare of modern fitness apps: Why is "local-only" so rare?
Basically the fancier your fitness and health tracking the less private. You can make your own health and fitness tracking ecosystem and track it all on your own laptop. Use a "dumb" pedometer. I mean at the end of the day it al comes down to how much you eat, sleep and move. And to be honest, if yo...
Best high-end brand smartwatch for blood pressure monitoring?
so from the list you mentioned, galaxy watch 5 pro and garmin venu 3 probably have the best blood pressure monitoring. samsung has the samsung health monitor app that does BP readings if you're in a supported region, garmin also tracks it but accuracy can be hit or miss other than those, a personal ...
Galaxy Watch Ultra GPS Accuracy
First of all, I am a runner just like you. I came from the dedicated running watch (TomTom, then Garmin) to the Wear OS platform because I absolutely need LTE coverage when out on long runs. If Garmin had offered a true LTE solution, I'd have been all over that. Like you, I previously purchased a Sa...
Samsung just dropped the ball on S Pen with the S25 Ultra
Really puzzled at Samsung's decision to drop bluetooth support for the S Pen without a viable alternative. NGL I'm not really interested in Air Gestures but the loss of the remote shutter really hurts. I have a Watch5 Pro and it's just not comparable. With the S Pen, I just click it and it takes a p...
Samsung's Galaxy Watch 4 is now nearing the end of its run
If the GW4 becomes unusable or unsafe due to no security updates then I'd probably just switch to the GW6 classic instead. Only thing I'll say to that is the processor upgrade to the Exynos W1000 that was introduced in the GW7 was one of the most dramatic upgrades in a smart watch I've had in a whil...
Watch 8 series full specs
Yes. The Exynos W1000 SoC it uses was introduced last year in the GW7. I've commented all over reddit to try to get people to understand it's a night and day difference from the processors Samsung was using in the GW6 and prior. I upgraded to a GW7 from a GW5 and the difference is astounding. Butter...
