I have seen some tech reviewers doing reviews on these smart watches for a long time now... they all talk but no stuff... but I must say you are doing a wonderful job of walk the talk... Easy to understand all the technical jargon... I am happy with your content.. You got a new subscriber.. Ya pls bring the xiaomi watch review and pls do let us know which is the better choice among 3 tic pro5, Xiaomi or 1+2... cheers mate

This was an amazing video. Thanks for the easy to digest comparisons, and detailed research on your part.

Best review I have had the pleasure of watching in a long, long time. Subscribed!

Great video and very informative as always thanks mate 👍

for me running whit music is important, if you have spotify premium and you download your running playlist or podcast can you go battery save mode and aces the music ? or only full wear os mode?

Got mine yesterday, LOVE it. Having a Pixel Watch 2, the size is excellent. The biggest plus is the sapphire crystal glass and advertised battery life, and that it has the weight and feel of my analog watches. My Pixel Watch 2 already has glass damage which really sucks and I have to charge it every day. My only gripe so far is all my fitness tracking is in Fitbit and at least for now, can't be moved over or integrated (yet?).

How well did it handle phone notifications? Does it miss any, or just treat any notifications as silent/DND?

Very solid, detailed and to the point review. I just gave you a sub. Definitely getting this watch.

Excellent review, thank you! I notice that it DOES have a couple of dials at least (green and blue) with traditional CALENDAR readouts. In an ideal world, I'd like a developer to come up with a lighter blue background dial, with full calendar read-out, including Moon phase and even, for us 'clockies', an Equation of Time dial.

OnePlus is king! My watch should be arriving soon :D

Funny thing is, like you, I am still waiting for the perfect smartwatch and then last night clearing out my google stuff, I came across 3 photos of previous smartwatches. Sony (square jobby) with the fabulous screen that was ledgible in daylight! Moto360 with the flat tyre that I honestly never minded because it's bezels were so thin. Huwawei, an early model with sapphire glass, beautiful stainless body and the smallest bezels ever. I still think this is the best form yet and watches went seriously backwards from this point.

One of the best reviews I have watched in a long time!! Great Job good sir!!

Great to see that you can control part of the earbuds from the watch, but is it possible to change the volume to the earbuds from the watch also?

The most in dept review I've seen so far. 👍

I have been waiting for this review. But can you explain why a watch needs to play music, YT or any animation? I use my phone for that because the speakers are great. Thank you for reviewing this watch.

Top notch review - best on KZread. Cheers

hi, i am a long time follower of your channel. have you considered doing some level of screening on the controversial or conflicting things in your review when compared to other popular review channels like dc rainmaker, desfit and quantified scientist? i feel that would create some level of confusion among smart watch enthusiasts such as yourself who are also following other channels. thanks for doing this, btw :)

Your smartwatch reviews are getting better and better. 👍

I have the s24u, galaxy 6 47mm or the oneplus watch 2?

I've got the Galaxy watch 6 series, the Xiaomi Watch S2 and the Amazfit Balance, and the Balance instantly became the "daily driver" as it does all needed, it's very customisable with the buttons, and even with the latest OS update where it is now possible to control all by voice commands/AI and not to forget, the battery lasts for days compared to the other watches that only get a couple of days the most.

Have you tried to answer calls on phone when you have a bluetooth device connected to the phone itself rather than the watch ? I cant get that to work, it disconnects any bluetooth device and directs the call to the phone itself.. that means that I cant use my regular bluetooth devices that are far better than the buds, or use the Google AAOS handsfree in the car.

The best review for watch 2 so far..

Very good and detailed review. I would really like to know if you decides to use this dayly instead of your watch 6. Im trying to decide which of them to get. I really like the design of theese 2 more than the watch 6 classic

Nice review. Did OnePlus send you that OnePlus Watch 2.0, eh?

So the question is, is it better than SGW 6 classic?

My 2 biggest concerns - can i pay with it without my phone being connected? Secondly, do you think the scrolling crown which dies nothing can be fixed by an upgrade or will be always just fake scroll on this one?

Yes OnePlus is levelling up their smartwatch game. Thanks for watching.

6:15 paused there and THAT IS HOW a watch is supposed to be, curved, curved enough to wrap around your wrist, so many watches are made but the band and where the band connects to are not curved enough and so far, this OnePlus watch it fits perfectly, and for safe measure, I will be selling my Classic 6 and buy a 2nd OnePlus so that I can use at work and if it scratch it I won't care, I'll have a 2nd one for the weekends.

Thanks for posting this video.

Great review. thanks for sharing.

That's really a great review man! You've covered everything a potential buyer needs to know about this watch.

@chigz Tech Reviews Thanks for the great and detailed review. I think the main chipset is SD W5, not the Plus version.

Which one do you recommend? Oneplus watch 2 or Ticwatch 5 pro enduro?

This is a really well done review. They make a 43-44 mm version & I'm in. Those of us with smaller wrists can't wear this giant. This watch seems to hit a sweet spot between the best of Wear OS & a Garmin watch.

It's actually pretty good haptic feedback as well

Great review as always, and I completely agree with the frustrations of some of the Samsung frustrations you mention. However, that battery life is exactly the same as my classic 6 on smart mode and given the bigger screen and rotating bezel and most importantly wireless charging, the GW6 is far superior. We've had this discussion before, but just knowing I can use my phone to reverse wireless charge my watch offsets any loss in battery life (compared to the unreliable ticwatch) Where I agree is Samsung failing to provide a better Battery Saver mode. It cannot be beyond the watches capability to provide a user defined set of saver modes whereby one can select what features you disable completely. I read that google has now added the facility to allow different facilities to be run by different chips so perhaps it will happen next generation. In the meantime, Samsung will give users features like reviewing Health tracking on TV.. that is so useful, can't wait to try it out.😂

Very great review as usual, thank you a billion! We have finally a new champion waiting for head to head comparison. Not very surprised with this great watch and i see the fingerprint of Oppo very clear here. Two processors, i think we had before in Oppo watch 4 pro, not sure about the battery modes but i feel that oppo watch X is the twin of oneplus 2. Great job and great review. Thank you a lot. Two last points. The first is about the head to head comparison between Mi band 8 pro and Samsung fit3, where i feel that samsung will fall again. The second point is my message for samsung to think better for future especially for battery and stop rotating good features between watches, this is the result of making watch 6 classic weakin battery to support purchases of watch 5 pro. Sorry Samsung but you are not the only option in the world of smart watches anymore.

Great review dont like the crown that doesnt work. Compared with Apple and Samsung and HUawei some functions are missing ie ECG, Body tempreture etc.

Why that crown should do anything. It has a touch screen. And what comes to wireless charging; no need for that. 0% to 100% in an hour. 10min for a full day use. People are complaining for nothing.

That weight is a deal killer

Whilst I mostly love this watch, the biggest problem I’ve encountered is the ‘Sleep’ mode (ie turns off raise to wake, notifications & calls) and the DND are both manually activated. There’s no schedule option so you can automate the on and off times. Inevitably I’m going to forget to manually turn them on or off and it will have consequences.

@Empathies92

I can't answer your first question, but while looking up information about the watch there was one source that listed the lack of fall detection as a negative. So I'm afraid it doesn't have fall detection.

Hope this helps spark a drive to improve battery life on WearOS watches. Had the Ticwatch Pro 5, but ran in to some very annoying software niggles on it, so got a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic at a hefty discount (plus it has LTE). Love the watch, but 1 day battery life is rough. Software is good, no oddities as yet, app is good, probably overall the best WearOS watch I've owned to date. The Xiaomi Watch 2 looks nice and has 2-3 days battery life, but no promises on software support and also reports of quite buggy software, so a pass from me. Something about the button design/layout puts me off this OnePlus watch, as the 'crown' doesn't actually do anything, I don't really see the point of making things asymmetrical, like they have.
