I've done it for 6 nights for sleep studies.. You better be good at sleeping pencil style because that's pretty much all you can do.

Why can Samsung not improve heart rate measurements in different scenarios and catch up with Apple and Huawei? It's been two years since they achieved medical accuracy. My bike rides with Huawei GT3 gives spot on heart rate results with Polar H10 as long as you have a tight fit on the wrist. How about sleep tracking on Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 being still a gimmick feature ? Oh come on Samsung, you can do better. Battery life, don't mention !

I'm very disappointed, too. I want to switch from my iPhone and AW Ultra to S23 Ultra with GW 6C but without a good accuracy i don't want to switch. No idea why Samsung puts so little energy and especially accuracy into their watches, although they are an important key element for many. I don't know any manufacturer except Samsung that regularly degrades its products as well. In this case, the battery runtime. In the case of S-class phones, worse displays, less ram, thicker bezels, etc. Which decision maker thinks up something like that? This way, I only continue to lose market share...

Ever since I had Gear s3 for testing I knew that AW even back then were so much more accurate when it comes to heart rate tracking. I really like Samsung phones but they forced me this year to switch to iPhone. Hopefully iPhone 15 pro is going to be good.

@@TheQuantifiedScientist Thank you for the reply! I find Samsung's advice very generic, apart from explaining how their sleep scores are calculated, and what the normal ranges are. For example, I'm informed that my deep sleep is important for physical recovery, got a "good job" comment because it was sufficient, but no actionable items of what I could to increase it, or improve upon it. I guess Samsung is not alone in this? Another improvement point, I find it odd that if I go to sleep in the early evening, wake up before midnight, and then go to sleep again right after midnight, the sleep time prior to midnight goes to the previous day. It's not added to this night's sleep because I woke up. Again, perhaps this is a tradition and Samsung is not alone in this, focusing on calendar days, not on the nights, which frequently cross two calendar days. Thank you again Rob, for a great job! Hopefully your tests and analyses will make the manufacturers improve.

Nice, thanks for the the great review. Have you ever compared the effect of using a fabric band to using the normal plastic band? Can a fabric band improve the measurements significantly since it couples the watch to the wrist better?

Hi Rob, awesome review as always. On other forums there is an issue about watch 6 classic rotating bezel shifting, not firm. This is my guess but this would definitely affect the heart rate monitor in heavy workout sections.

@TheQuantifiedScientist Nice job! I hope you can help me with an interest question, and I believe there are not much solid information about it around tbe internet. There is any problem using fitness trackers/smartwatches/smartbands on the inner side of your wrist (palm side)? I mean, how bad is it (if bad at all) to the accuracy of the device? Do you have a word on this issue? Maybe you can consider doing a video testing it, would be great!

This definitely helped my decision as I'm looking for a smartwatch for general health and running. Thanks Rob!

I was about to buy a galaxy watch. Just in time, I found this guy. I decided to buy Huawei GT3. I tried Apple Watch SE 2022 along with GT3. Compared it while running, even switched wrists. Got almost accurate results. Could not make me much happier. The battery is awesome. Goes almost for a week. I use it during sleep. I found my falling asleep time, and woke up time the most accurate and also how many times I woke up in the middle of the night are also good. It looks good too. This guy saved me from gimmicky galaxy watch.

I see a lot of comments on the Galaxy watches being bad at tracking sleep. I've never had an issue with mines tracking my sleep as it was always spot on. Never did a deep dive on many other features so I can say but the sleep tracker worked fine. And Im an erratic sleeper

Great video. Could you also compare the body composition feature to a medical device?

I believe Samsung were giving a Velcro strap as a early buy option. I change all my watches to Velcro straps for better HR readings. Maybe retest later with a Velcro and see what happens, I'm would be interested. Not a bad watch overall, I ordered the Watch 6 non classic. I don't believe a sports watch should have a rotating bezel. Great video, thanks again.

I agree. I have the Watch 5 pro and love the fact it hasn't got the bezel as this would then be prone to breaking when doing sports and especially when it's under my boxing gloves. I also use velcro straps for better accuracy also. I can't downgrade to watch 6 due to the battery life as I have lte and use my watch and leave the phone behind when training or sometimes for the whole day when at work and the battery easily last the full day no stress.

Hi Rob! I have a few comments. 1. Small muscles like biceps don't really matter if you want to measure your heart rate. Because they generally do not cause too much difference, they are not too burdensome for the body. Much better would be, for example, squats. 2. Regarding the differences between these watches. This may be due to their construction. I'm just wondering if this difference may not also be due to the difference between the two hands. You could check this by swapping the watches around, or using two of the same on both wrists. 3. I'm also wondering if overall results wouldn't be better if you wore these watches from the bottom of your wrist, if you know what I mean. anyway good job! Greetings from Poland.

Hi, great video! have you think about doing a comparison or correlation because size and weight of watches to check if there's relation yo results? That might be interesting!

Can you please do a review of Huawei watch 4 pro? And if you can add oxygen saturation to your tests as well (I realize you might not want to make your videos longer, so just briefly mentioning oxygen tests results would be great) that would be very much appreciated.

I've been waiting for this review, so thank you. I've been wanting to get a galaxy watch for two years now but it's its accuracy that stops me from doing so. Heart (as in regular heart track, if it finds problems) and sleep track is what I seek and I wonder if this can be improved with software upgrade. I'm really into getting the Classic 6. Is there a chance you can let us know how it does in a regular heart situation, when you just wear it without any sports activity? I wonder why Samsung doesn't do anything to improve its sensors to be as good, if not better than the Apple watches. Anyway, there are rumors of a Galaxy 6 pro, and I have 'till November to get the Classic, if I do get it. So yet again, I'll have to wait and see and hopefully you will make another review by then. Cheers.

Unfortunately software isn't the saving grace. This is the 6th generation and it's been lagging behind for years. But it's more a case similar to Fitbit where it's good, but it just falls short to apple aggressively improving their fitness and hr and sleep tracking. Apple simply cared more about investing in the fitness features and they had the funds to do it. Even Desfit and Dc Rainmaker acknowledge apple is the gold standard of HR watches. Essentially get a Samsung if you want slightly better battery or have a Samsung, otherwise I'd get an apple with iPhone and pixel watch or Garmin for Android (depending on activity). Samsung isn't going to fix this in hardware. They've had YEARS to do it. They're content to just be mid in fitness

Galaxy watch 6 classic shows results more worse as it's a little bit heavy, so it sometimes move on your wrist while you are doing workout

I have been waiting for your review. Thank you so much for saving few $$ Keep up the good work.

@The Quantified Scientist I have one question, when comparing heart rate counts, have you considered the fact that you use different hands and thus different sizes and shapes of blood vessels based on which the heart rate is extrapolated. To be more pragmatic you would have to test them on the same hand, or at least test that the assumption that you are making is valid.

Hi Rob, tks for another amazing job! if u dont mind, i have a sugestion: many peoplo talk, in GW sub on reddit about the next update(for GW4 and GW5 receive the same software of GW6), they think its about to release this month, so, maybe worth make a compare between gw4, gw5 and gw6 after that ;)

Awesome review!, would be also really great if you could also somehow analyze the calories burnt during different workouts

I bought a GW6 Classic last week. Have been on 2 x runs and the GPS whilst using Strava is pinpoint accurate.

I think what needs testing is the sleep tracking oxymeter function on the galaxy watches because false low readings (and I think these have been reported) could lead to unnecessary visits to a doctor to carry out various tests (such as sleep apnea etc)

Any plans to do an update video update on whoop 4.0 after a year or so of firmware updates?

Hi Rob, recently i came to know that i had 3 blockages in my heart. I did angioplasty and they put 3 stents. Now I'm interested in a wearable that can keep track of my heart performance during the day and while asleep. I'm between the apple watch ultra or the oura ring. Which one would you recommend as per your experience that can give me the most information about my heart from the above mentioned 2 or do u recommend something else?
