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

From apple ultra to galaxy ultra

Wear it higher on the wrist, it will help with accuracy and consistency. Also, it seems to adapt to your sleep and measure it better over time. Also, keep in mind that it takes continuous pulseox readings at night vs only once in a while for Apple. The accuracy is about the same, Apple just records

So tired of the Watch Ultra and Samsung's crappy programming.

Unfortunate, I love my GW Ultra

I was wrong

I'm glad that you're happy with your 8C... I really, really wanted to like how the 8C looks (even went to the store to try it on and convince myself that it is a worthy replacement to my 6C as backup to my GWU). But that shiny, raised bottle-cap-on-a-cushion look plus the small screen makes it look

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

Blood pressure monitor feature, now active... Nobody's mentioned it, does anyone besides me use it?

Just wanted to say thank you for sharing! I wasn't aware of this. I'll get my GWU out of the drawer (been on AWU and Garmin lately) and try it out. I am working on dropping my BP and this will be great to help!

Im so mad 3 years and now this

Yeah I wasn't sure what people used the Pen for I never take mine out. I also have a GW Ultra, and you can control and take pictures using that with a little display. Awesome feature Absolutely no need for the pen then.

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

What am I actually getting from an Ultra?

Depending on your region, 6WC has great trade in value. You'll get a bigger battery and faster processor. Like you said, it's not going to do anything more, just gonna do it better. The benefits are almost strictly health/workout metric related. A bigger battery means you can record those metrics wi

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

TBF, Samsung made significant improvements in their HR sensor with GW7/GWU. My GW6C was not great, my GWU is mostly keeping up with my Apple Watch Series 9. Sleep tracking wise, sleep stages are not great on any of the wearable devices anyway, with AW being a bit more accurate, but Sleep/Wake detect
