Venu 3 is rumoured to be coming soon.


The 265 is nice, you can usually find a 10% code for one of the running online shops.

I've finally decided to drag myself into the 21st century and get a smartwatch. Got a Galaxy Watch 6 classic (47mm). Now to work out how to use it!
Welcome to the club!
I've got to say I'm not disappointed coming from the watch 4 classic.
I recently bought some screen protectors and a clear case cover from Amazon, I feel i can rest a little easier now lol.
Screen protectors...
KIMILAR 4-Pack Screen Protector compatible with Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic 47mm Tempered Glass, 9H HD Scratch Resistant Screen Cover Protector Film for Galaxy Watch 6 Classic 47mm Smartwatch Only https://amzn.eu/d/5KPuCqc

Clear Case cover..

CAVN Screen Protector Compatible with Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic 47mm, [3+1] 9H Hardness Anti-Scratch Tempered Glass Screen Protector with PC Bumper Case for Galaxy watch 6 Classic https://amzn.eu/d/iPzT12R

I have used CAVN Screen protectors before and they were fine but the first one I tried didn't stick too well hence the Kimilar ones which are much the same but go on ok.

I have the CAVN case protector on my 6 classic it's more rubberised than previous case protectors which tend to be harder plastic and lest flexible. I also added theRingke Bezel ring which I've used on last 4 Samsung watches, never used a screen protector always been lucky but I've nearly scratched the bezel a few times.

Can anyone recommend a watch that does water temperature accurately? I am currently using a Withing Scanwatch Horizon (which I love as the battery life is like 3 weeks) but I am sea swimming daily and going into the winter want to know the sea temp. Also might add I am on android. CHeers.

I went for the clear case also. Not sure it looks good on a black watch, maybe should have gone with a black one instead of the clear.

Yeah maybe the black would look better but either way it's going to help protecting the watch.
The amount of times I have knocked it on a door casing or the dog had caught it with his claws is crazy!

That looks decent, might swap over from the Apple Watch series 8 for one of those..
after terrible experiance of galaxy 4 and friends apple watch for battery life i would love a garmin but i really want to be able to pay with it. if they would just support google pay. My wifes galaxy watch does half day after less than a year so she has given up and apple watch only lasts until dinner if everything is turned off.

If there any news on something that will last more than a day.,

You can pay contactless with the Garmin watches.
