Why it is that you only focus on fitness?? For that price I think is worth mentioning it productive capabilities, LTE usage, or the lack of them. I mean… It has to perform well not only in fitness and GPS. I’m a huge fan of your content, but fitness is not my thing and not for many others

@René Sánchez please take a watch of the regular Galaxy Watch 5 review. I covered all that because it’s identical. This review focuses on what different features it has.

Hi Lexy ,great video ..Will you recommend returning garmin venu 2 plus and getting this one . I also ordered the fold 4 . Please help .I don’t hike or anything but mostly interested in sleep ,heart rate tracking .
Lexy Savvides
August 26, 2022 at 3:24 pm
@Hk I love the Garmin Venu 2 Plus, it’s definitely slimmer and easier to wear than this Watch. But not as durable. I prefer the Garmin sleep tracking and recovery metrics, the heart rate monitoring is good but it has no ECG. So if you need that, get the Galaxy watch
Hk
August 28, 2022 at 11:25 am
@Lexy Savvides honestly the only thing I dislike is the size . I am 192 cm and love big watches . Probably should get epix 2 . But thinking should I give a shot on galaxy watch 5 but scared about sleep tracking and health metrics .

i have 1 question? how does the watch en your phone react when you also use a carkit? is the watch going to disconnect with your phone or can it duoconnect?
xKID CHAMELEONx
August 25, 2022 at 9:07 pm
Considering they didn’t upgrade the processor or the ram I really don’t think I’m going to upgrade from my Galaxy watch 4 classic. The only upgrade in my eyes is the battery and that doesn’t justify the price. I think I’ll wait until the next iteration.

Pre-ordered mines last week and received it this pass Monday. So far I love it. It really isn’t much different than the watch 4. Mainly I’m loving the better battery life I guess mainly do to the bigger battery. It seems to run smoother and faster then the watch 4. However it could be just from being new. I like the bigger size and the build. Feels premium. I do kinda miss the rotating bezel on a premium device but the digital one isn’t too bad. Expectly with practice. The new band style is great. Only issue I see is if u need to do reverse charging from you Galaxy device. The band makes it almost impossible unless you remover it. But again do to the bigger battery you hopefully won’t need to charge. A stand would have been nice to sit it on while charging though. Since it doesn’t sit flat on a desktop. Overall I’m very happy with it.
Lexy Savvides
August 25, 2022 at 10:15 pm
100% agree with you about the stand!

1 problem with a physical rotating bezel even though I love it but it causes accidental touchs and the bezel to accidentally rotate

My Cons in 4 days using it:
1) Google Pay/ Samsung Pay – obligatory Pin when set, locks the watch, not the app. Any time the watch gets lose in your wrist it triggers the lock and you have to use the pin even to check the time. In the Tizen days, it would lock only Samsung Pay. Very annoying feature.
2) No rotating bezel – The virtual bezel is not precise so I have now been using the screen to scroll.
3) ECG does not work for non Samsung phone users.
4) I expected the battery to last longer, so far I disabled the NFT and GPS to have the battery last more than 24 hours.
Pros:
1) Very fast charging
2) The watch lip protects the screen
3) Google Assistant
4) Beautiful and useful watch faces out of the box

hi i m interested for the latest possible smartwatch. budget is irrelevant for me.
so i have come to known epix 2 ,but current crown on garmin enduro 2 vs galaxy watch 5 pro ?
so which is mostly usefulnes for use. let say i love to use sideloaded apps as a plus feature. antoher point is which ever smartwatch i like to use for a long time for their usefullness and customizable ability or even modded ability.
i known garmin epix gen2 for a while but it seems stable and epic enough but not entirely relevant to the android usefullness but i can say it got quality over quantity which is really unbalance quality.
in my perspective im not sure any smawarch serve for my expectation of longetivity and usefullness of functions.
anyone kindly any advice appreciated .

Why have we gone backwards? You have been able to pair chest straps with Android Wear for YEARS. I just don’t understand what these companies are thinking sometimes. I’m glad the HR monitor on the watch is fairly accurate, but I always used a chest strap during my weight lifting sessions because the watch would frequently lose contact with my wrist during the movements.

The first thing I noticed was the weight difference. The 5 pro is way lighter than the 46mm 4 classic .
Chuck Richardson
August 27, 2022 at 4:52 pm
The first problem is they’re calling this the Galaxy watch 5 and the Galaxy watch 5 pro…the name alone is a lie and is misleading. Samsung secretly got rid of their classic line and all they have decided to go with is their active line, so did a name change.. They should have called this the Galaxy watch active 5 and the Galaxy watch active 5 pro as that is exactly what this watch is it is the newest active watch and this is disappointing as not everybody is a fitness freak or wants to wear a fitness style watch. Also that market is becoming quite flooded between companies like Fitbit and Apple respectively. Samsung was one of the few companies left that you could get a substantial decent looking classic looking smartwatch from. It looks like I will have to stick with my watch 4.. hopefully Samsung backtracks on this and just like they did when they tried to get rid of the note. Other companies like Google and Huawei just don’t compare in their smart watches and not everybody is into the iWatch-esque type smartwatch

It needs to have continuous glucose monitoring, and I’ll pay double for it; otherwise, I don’t see a need for it. I have a watch on my Galaxy z Fold 3. My special deal z Fold 4, Buds2 Pro, & Watch 5 Pro arrive on Monday. I’ll probably just resell the Watch 5 Pro (unopened) on eBay.

Some reviewers are hating the band and saying to replace it as soon as you remove it from the box. And for $500 a wall charger should be in the box. Sadly these companies are saving thousands not including a charger in anything these days and not passing that on. You are one of the only reviewer I have seen wearing the watch while showing you using your finger to move around the new dial. I have just tried running my finger around the dial like I would have to if I had this new watch and I would not be able to see the screen very well. It is time to look at Garmin or others to replace my samsung watch, I’m just going to miss the LTE so I might look to Apple
