Good Deal?

Yes the galaxy watch has quick access to Samsung health available in oneui to measure body composition check the exercise intensity stress levels and the gw8 has antioxidant index. For me the most important are the sleep coaching and the exercise tracker 👏🔥

Talk to me about battery life!

Im also a 12-hour healthcare worker, switched over to Zflip 7 from my iPhone 15 Pro.

Question and advice

The 7 series was the first time I got something below the top of the line because the Ultra was just so ugly. I was so excited to get the 8 classic until I saw it. I know people say it loo

Android vs. Apple – my honest day-to-day experience after years in both worlds

When I switched to iphone I started hating the walled garden apple had created, yes the camera was impressive, I felt cool walking around with it but when I noticed that you can't get custom apps or apks and also have these increased prices due to the 30 percent tax, I immediately got a Samsung.

I love and daily my GW8 Classic, it's my favorite watch ever. However it would be false to say that OneUI 8 Watch is anywhere near Apples polish and attention to detail in watchOS.

Switching from Garmin Forerunner to Galaxy Watch – Is It a Good Move for Runners?

Hi, so a quick look through Samsung Health and Garmin Connect history shows another run. Distance SH 7.92km GC 7.79km HR bpm SH avg 137 - high 167 GC avg 135 - high 152 So I think the GW8C and the Garmin (now a FR965) are in the same ball park GPS wise. Actually I don't know which one is actually ri
