Galaxy watch 6C Longer use review and some concerns
Same exact issue with Play Services battery consumption on Galaxy Watch 8, and think of it, the GW8 is the top of the line right now. It's incredible and disappointing that Samsung does such awful things to it's users that pay the premium price for their phones, watches, buds, and all their other pr

Galaxy Watch6 44 mm to Watch9 44 mm — is it actually worth upgrading?
Based on my experience, i have upgraded each year until this year. Tired of wasting money on only a couple of new features just to not even use them. They sound nice but some are useless unless you buy other health devices. Coming from the GW4, GW5, GW6 & Classic, GW7, to GW8. Save your money. Now I

My review of the Galaxy Watch 9 standard 40mm BT
so u du around 26 hours with a charge with aod off, i think it will improve in somw days, even if it is the 40mm. first day its still so early to see complete performances. samsung tells 30 hours with aod on, both for 40 and 44mm. about the charge time, thats too long too, do you have gw7 or gw8 too

Is it normal to have less than 2 days on a full charge? (Galaxy Ultra 2025, one week old)
The visible "learning" process is 3 days for a Samsung Smartwatch, for phones this is 5 daysI've the basic GW8 version and I've 2 days. But my GW7 had around the same Charge it again to 100% another time and report this battery issue via your phone Settings - Google - Send feedback. Must be improved

Upgrading the 4. To what?
The Galaxy Watch 6 should be more than fine for you. I use my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic for simple sports tracking like jogging twice a week or basic home workouts, lots of AI stuff with Gemini, WhatsApp, Spotify, mobile payments, the heatlh functions, translations, or navigation with Google Maps… and

Upgrade og keep?
Wait those !diots to fix battery charging. The ultra 2 doesn't appear to be scratch resistant either like watch 8 classic has been. Samsung is going cheaper on engineers.

Galaxy Watch 40 vs 44 battery life
you can try the gw7, its at a decent price rn, preforms fast, the gw7 44mm version is a fair bit smaller than the gw8/gw9 44mm aswell since its without that big sqaurcicle border. you can definitely make it last one day but if you start throwing GPS and LTE on I don't think it will to be honest. sam

New way of charging GW8C .
Bit of irony here - Samsung UK are (were?) giving away a couple of freebies after confirmation of purchase of a GW8 - "Claim a Duo Wireless Charging Pad and Hybrid or Trail Band" - yes they're giving away a charging pad that's not exactly 100% compatible with the watch. Couldn't make it up if you tr
