There's 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage for things like Spotify offline playlists. In terms of specs you get a 1.2-inch or 1.4-inch 360x360 super AMOLED display. The 45mm also has a black titanium option. It comes in two sizes, a unisex 41mm available in black, silver and bronze and a larger 45mm that comes in black/silver. With the move to Wear OS for the newer smartwatch, the Watch 3 is an endangered species and will only be supported with critical updates by Samsung for three years. Now replaced by the Galaxy Watch 4, things are even bleaker for the Galaxy Watch 3. Single day battery life is a gripe, and this watch is Android only.īut Samsung and Google have hit the bullseye with this excellent smartwatch. Sleek with a gorgeous screen, packed full of top fitness and health features (including the new BIA sensor that tracks body composition), and comes at a decent price. The Galaxy Watch 4 is a fantastic smartwatch. On Google's side, it's committed to improving app quality and selection – and there's already evidence this is well underway. You can opt to use Google Pay over Samsung Pay and users can access the Play Store for apps, which is head-and-shoulders above the old Galaxy Store. The standard version (left) replaces the Galaxy Watch Active 2 in 40mm and 44mm sizes, while the Watch 4 Classic (right) retains the dress watch feel of the older Watch 3 in 42mm and 46mm options. There are two very distinct versions of the Galaxy Watch 4. We'd wager most users wouldn't notice the difference, and the Watch 4 retains the bezel control, close integration with Samsung services, and features such as blood pressure monitoring, ECG and GPS. The new smartwatches move to Wear OS, although retain the traditional look and feel of Galaxy Watches via the One UI Watch 3 overlay. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is a huge change for the Samsung brand, and hits reset on four generations of devices. The Huawei Watch GT2e has emerged as a serious, cheap alternative, and new Wear OS devices such as the Oppo Watch and of course the Fitbit Versa 3.

The smartwatch market is getting pretty busy. There are also a range of Galaxy Fit fitness trackers, as well. It's been a staple of the smartwatch world since the beginning, and its line-up splits two ways: the Galaxy Watch 3 and its classic wrist-watch styling to the more sporty Galaxy Watch Active devices. Samsung has cemented its place as the biggest smartwatch brand after Apple, and one of the top choices for Android users.
