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

Apple Watch Ultra 3

I'm never going to downvote someone for being honest about the deficiencies of Samsung. They keep missing the boat with almost ALL of their watch offerings, especially with regard to GPS accuracy, which should be an absolute nailed-on part of the product if you are going to market your product as be

Switching to Galaxy from Apple, how does the Galaxy Watch Compare?

I switched from AW Series 9 to Galaxy Watch Ultra and my experience is similar to yours. HR wise, it is slower to react to dips, but catches up with peaks fairly quickly, on par with my AW S9.Sleep tracking is OK, I find it more accurate on my right wrist. SpO2 is all over the place, but I think the

Looking for a way out of the Apple Ecosystem.

I refuse to be tied to ANY ecosystem so Apple is a non-starter. And, like you, I had a long history with their products. Also like you, I am a runner and I want certain things from my workout app. That leaves Wear OS as the only "smartwatch" alternative. That said, Samsung and Google both want you t

Crappy update to One UI 8.

You're not alone. A lot of fanboys out here simping for these pieces of mung. I tried pointing out how compared to the Apple Watch Ultra 2 which I switched from to the GWU and was told I don't know what I'm doing. It's all my fault. It's all user error. So it's my fault the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultr

Anyone considering Pixel Watch 4

I am, already pre-ordered actually. Charging times for the GWU are a mess. It needs about 90-120 min each morning. Plus I don't like being restricted by the fact that I don't have a Samsung phone.

Strava showing lower distances after One UI 8 Watch update on Galaxy Watch Ultra

Thanks, I tried it earlier this week with no luck in the distance difference problem. Now I gave it another shot and it worked. The first time I tried it was my fault, I did not realize the default setting is to use the Samsung Health distance when uploading to strava and marked the checkbox (which

Battle of the Ultra's - AWU2 vs Samsung GWU

Yeah. For apps it's a seamless transition. Other than, of course, messaging. I use the watches for fitness. I'm not a full time athlete but I train. And workout. And exercise. The GW Ultra is not as good as the AW Ultra here. But it could be good enough. However, WearOS is still far behind WatchOS.

Smart ring recommendations to compliment ape watch ultra. Oura ring vs ultrahuman or ring conn

I recently bought a Ringconn Gen 1 (for £54.00 off eBay - bargain) for the same reason. I wanted to still have my steps etc tracked for when I'm not wearing my GWU (during charging for example) and for sleeping. The latter because there's been a few times I've forgot to put on my watch due to unexpe

Looking to Switch from Apple Watch Ultra, anything I should know?

I will second that you should go with the galaxy watch ultra over the oneplus watch 3 (source I have them both) the haptics being much more premium and the integration with oneui will make all the difference and feel closer to the apple watch ultra (i have an ultra 2 as well). I was just looking int
