    I have both the Apple Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic; both work well with their respective ecosystem but I think the Apple Watch Ultra takes the cake as the smart watch king (like a true smart watch, not something you just get notifications and has no full app support like my Garmin, which is a different category). I notice and have seen from different sources that the sensors on the GWC6 is just… bad like super inaccurate. There’s a whole video that breaks it down.

    i got my Apple Watch Ultra a month ago for 40% of its original price 2nd hand on our country with still complete packaging and no dents and scratches.. its still like brand new except the Trailloop Band that needed a wash

    Edit : the watch is still under apple warranty until January 2024, not bad i guess

    They’re not worth buying. And by that I mean ALL OF THEM. pathetic battery life is their main problem.

    Garmin or nothing. ⌚ Not the smartest watch, but it does inspire to improve lifestyle, tracks and analyses sports like no other. With a battery that lasts.

    You do not need any of these. The motivation to do exercise is intrinsic. A watch is not going to give the push to do actual exercise to anybody. A watch will only show the number of steps taken without doing dedicated exercise activity and people will grow more content to avoid exercise.

      Ever heard the term gamification? Simply seeing numbers, clear goals and how you compare to others can help a lot to be motivated. These can help you build some healthy habits.

    Garmin sportswatch all the way. Though, if I could access Apple notes, I would consider an Apple Watch.

    Having owned an Apple Watch, Pixel watch and currently on the Galaxy watch 6 there’s honestly not much in it for the majority of people it will really come down to preference and operating system compatibility.

    I like watches that dont connect to the internet LOL, but still these are dope bc it furthers the development of technology

    Had a Apple Watch since series 0 was released, still to this day i have never bothered to download a app, they all (The apps) seem a bit useless to me. I just use it for the notifications, calls and fitness tracking.

    Team Android. Most smart watches and fitness trackers work well with Android phones. But if you have an Apple Watch, you’re stuck with the iPhone.

    My garmin venu 2 is going strong now for 2 years. As someone who wants to detach from my phone, the venu is perfect and notifies me of any work email or pings, but doesn’t have the unnecessary features such as a mic and speaker, which results in me getting 10 days of battery life.

    Hey Lexi, I’ve seen Samsung watched with a blood pressure monitor outside of the US but it seems like they don’t have approval for America. Will that be added on later to the 6 classic? Which would be the best for also tracking Blood Pressure if I’m on a Samsung Galaxy phone? Thanks and keep up the good work ❤
