    The watch is really fun, but I'm curious what's still to come. Above all, the mentioned problems and failures are not based on cutting-edge technologies. Samsung does not have it under control.

    Have the clock now good 3 weeks and the initial enthusiasm has given way to disillusionment, unfortunately:

    But first the positive:
    Good battery life and easy charging (contactless).
    Good processed and robust
    Waterproof
    Great
    and many free watch faces
    Extensive functions (GPS, heart rate monitor, barometer, music player...)
    Simple, well thought-out operating concept via buttons, touchscreen, bezel
    Fast OS and smooth operation

    Negatives:
    Heart rate monitor: I do quite a lot of sports (jogging, fitness) and the heart rate measurement is of course interesting/relevant. Samsung advertises x sports that the watch actively supports. Unfortunately, however, the pulse sensor is absolutely unpredictable:
    Often measures nothing
    Often measures crap (pulse x 2)
    Suddenly measures correctly again.
    I have really tried everything: Tape tight, less tight, arm shaved, sock over watch (Because of extraneous light incidence), reset the watch, watch turned 180 °, all the same. With this problem Samsung fights probably already longer as one reads in the support forum, also with other models of their brand.

    Barometer/altimeter: After this worked flawlessly for 2 weeks and provided reliable data, it now has a bang: For 3 days, it jumps around from -1250 meters to 950 meters. Great that I could thereby unimagined floor records. Neither a manual nor automatic calibration could do anything. This morning I reset the clock with a heavy heart. Now the part has calmed down a bit, but how long?

    Speaking of resetting: The own settings of the clock can be saved and restored, but the long-term values / statistics on the clock are gone afterwards.

    Bluetooth: Also connected and synced flawlessly for a good 2 weeks, then suddenly one afternoon the connection is gone. After x attempts with reboot, delete connection, phone reboot etc. the connection is suddenly back. Since then stable, but one more aspect that leaves an uneasy feeling.

    Absolute buy recommendation, who is looking for a Smastwatch with high customization options and a lot of functionalities, is exactly right with the GalaxyWatch !

    I've been using the watch for about a month now, and it has become an indispensable gadget.

    Everything is customizable, you can make the watch exactly how you like it! I haven't had to compromise on functionality yet. Everything
    I wanted to do with the watch was actually possible!

    I am really thrilled!

    Highly recommended.

    The watch is awesome.... I've only had it for two days, but I can already say TOP. I got it mainly because of the sport functions. The watch arrived with 65% battery power. I have never charged it and after two days the watch still has 50%. I have GPS always on and Bluetooth always on.

    • Accurate pulse indication (because now 4 sensors)
    • The s-Health app on the smartphone now has the function of only steps from the Galaxy Watch or both.
    • Countless dials
    • Top interaction with my Galaxy s9 smartphone
