Smartwatch Thread (news/apps/updates)

had a quick go on the galaxy watch 6 classic in the local samsung store. 43mm and 47mm did not seem a huge difference in size and weight. The lug sizes seemed the same definitely slimmer in width then the watch 5 pro. The screen was brighter and the bezel size is smaller so larger screen on the 43mm and 47mm. I did like the new straps which have a central quick release I am sure many of these straps will soon appear on usual bay,ali sites. Look forward to getting mine earliest delivery was 8th August

I've ordered the 47mm for me and 43mm for the wife she's still rocking the watch 3 so due an upgrade both are in silver , had a play with them in Samsung store in Trafford yesterday screen very nice and could see the screen increase next to my 5 Pro .

Anyone seen any movement on watch 6 preorder mines still processing not even acknowledged ?


Now showing preparing for dispatch

Another Fitbit Charge broke after around a year, bit of a hassle and back and forth with them and looks like finally shipping a warranty replacement out to me.

not convinced with the new strap still sticks out a lot from lugs and wrist compared to the standard straps. I thought this had been fixed

** leather strap going back. The free strap is much better

So what have Samsung done you can no loner backup manually with the wear app now and mine has not done a backup for 2 days now , seems I'm not the only looking on reddit & xda
 
Noticed that my Forerunner 245 Music's battery life seems to be getting worse but it's not consistent.

One day I'll charge to 100% and it'll be down to 50% within a day. Then I'll charge to 100% again and it'll last 3 days before getting to 50%.

Is it still the case that non-Garmin's just can't compete on the features/battery life front? I'm wondering if the new Forerunner 265 is a worthwhile upgrade for the nicer screen and a fresh battery or perhaps a Venu 2 or similar as I only really run a couple times a week, not like I'm competing in triathlons or anything like that.
