In this video, Tshaka takes us through Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch4 Series — the #GalaxyWatch4Classic and #GalaxyWatch4. He takes a look at Tizen vs. One UI Watch and Wear OS 3, explains the durability and waterproofing, and gives a thorough field test of the sensors in Samsung’s BioActive sensor array. Samsung provided him with the 46mm Watch4 Classic for this review, but the sensors, processor, and batteries are the same across both lines, so you’ll know what you’re getting whether you’re looking for the more sporty Watch4, or the beefier Watch4 Classic.

Loved this review, subscribed. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I am not a fitness fanatic by any stretch but I have to say since buying the 40mm watch 4 (without the rotating bezel) I really love it as it suits my needs perfectly. I am really glad that the sensors are accurate so your tests were a real assurance of the watch's quality. Thanks for a fabulous in depth review of this fantastic watch series.
Android Central team, Do not and I repeat, DO NOT Lose this guy at any cost…he is entertaining as hell….
Still relevant today!!
Nicely done!!!
Nicely done
The battery life is a joke, barely 36hrs! My Garmin Fenix 6 battery lasts 13 days….
I can't help but agree with everything you said, I love my watch 4 it's perfect for the things I do in my daily life. My only complaint is a I can't find a band small enough for my wrist
Great video, love your energy 👌🏾😎
Great review! Got me half sold, just a bit iffy on having to use samsung apps for wallet n stuff. But otherwise the watch looks great
Very well narrated. Liked it!
The way they calculate calories is so dumb I can't get it
Can I watch YouTube videos from the watch ?
What's the link to that band
I have the samsug watch 2 getting the watch 4 in a few days
Great video brother! I am a bit hard of hearing so when you said 'running stairs" I thought you said running scared. Then when you talked about controlling the Buds I though you said controlling bugs. I was like damn Samsung stepped up their game with this one LOL. I too enjoy the GW4. Keep up with the great releases!
how's the text messages syncing? it use to be a nightmare
Your heart rate is concerning.
Would you upgrade from a galaxy watch 3 45mm to this watch ?
Great video, thanks, already ordered with my s22 pre order but wanna know what I'm in for!
Subscribed! I love how you reviewed the watch!!
Outstanding review! Most appreciate the fitness elements as they are the primary features I'm using to narrow down my decision process. My favorite part -the Busta throwback! One of the best and most memorable verse intros from the era! "Here we go yo!"
This is a really well researched review. Well done!
Loved your T shirt buddy! Training to beat Goku! Legend!!haha
I don't know if anyone else has noticed this issue but it seems whenever a watch face developer stops making watch faces all of thier watch faces you have purchased will disappear with no way to get them back
One thing you didn't mention about the LTE version . It is not compatible with any new 5G phones. You have to downgrade to a 4G phone to pair the LTE.
Good video
import cards is a feature. You even showed it withougt realising
Thank you for your informative and objective review of The Watch. You do Android Central a good service by keeping them a reliable source of information
NFC payments are allways offline. Your card doesn't have internet either
thank u beardy man. this has been very educational. cant decide which
Great review, thank you.
Wow. Top review. Great presentation, smart comparison and informative summary. Keep up the good work.
I had mine ( 4 Classic ) for nearly two days before I decided to return it…
Why, power consumption.
With nearly all the normal "smartwatch" functions on it lasted under 24 hour's .
Waking up in the morning to find out it was drained to 11% and it would take 1 49 hour to charge it…Inkonvenient !
Great review. I am eligible for a upgrade and will now feel more comfortable doing so
That training to beat Goku motivated da hell out of me!
Very good review! Really liked the comparison to the professional equipment 👍
One of the better reviews I've ever seen. Great job and great research.
Wow! Thank you so much for this video! I am truly able to make an educated decision. You're awesome. You just gained a new sub.
Great deep-dive. Seemed fair in your assessment of both Pros & Cons. Was impressed with the Scenario reference. 😃
What is LTE?
