I'm not sure if you check comments from videos this old but I wanted to let you know how useful this was for me. I'm thinking of switching from my z-fold to a pixel fold and even though this video is a year-old I'm sure that it still applies. Anyway, this is exactly the information I needed and I thank you.
Been using a galaxy watch active for a while, and the lack of google apps have been a bit infuriating, so I'm glad there's a lot more available here because of wear os! Still a bit of a bummer, they try to force you into using samsungs own apps, by hard coding them to the buttons.
I really like the look and price of this thing, but there's just too much fiddling and compromise for me and my Pixel 5a. I think I've narrowed it down to the Fossil Gen 6 and Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra for currently available Wear OS watching that will eventually receive the Wear 3 update. Or I might wait to see what the ton of sub-brands of Fossil come up with based on the Gen 6 platform. I would love a Skagen Falster 3, or a Diesel On Fadelite 2.
I cannot emphasize enough how much you need to stay away from Fossil. I bought a Fossil Gen 5 which I had for a month. The charging rings fell off and the microphone is practically useless due to its staggering low quality. I contacted support and they said they couldn't send me a replacement but that I would have to send my watch off for at least two months while the factory decided what was wrong with it then they would call me and let me know if they were going to charge me or not. If I declined the charge then they would just send my watch back but I'd have to wait at least another month for it to arrive. So let me summarize.. I spent $200 on a $300 watch from the official Fossil web page then the watch malfunctioned and the company told me that my only option was to send it off for three months. I have to pay for shipping and repairs. I feel really slided by Fossil and won't be doing anymore business with them. Samsung Galaxy Watch 4: $114 Fossil Gen 5: $300
Google is going to come out with a Pixel Watch soon (or at least the watch has been leaked by a phone carrier so not sure how soon it's going to come out but I'd guess pretty soon), so if you're ok with waiting then that might be the best move.
Very useful since im planning on getting a Watch 4 40mm (i think thats the size you were mainly wearing and showing in the video) and use it with my OnePlus 7T (ive been using a Galaxy Watch without much issue all this time). Thanks for the super clear vid!
@@yatzsharma if your asking me bro, I just go with BT version since I usually have the phone within range of the watch so I don't wanna spend more money on one that will lead me to spend more money on a recurring basis.. 😂
Great video. I'm currently on a Samsung phone, but I'm thinking about getting a Pixel 6, so I was very curious about this. Seems like the only critical thing really missing is the EKG and Blood Pressure monitoring which would be nice for Samsung just to add to Samsung Health App for non Samsung phones. The other features would be nice but kinda have work arounds that aren't too bad.
@@ryanjabell I'm most likely getting a Pixel 6 Pro, on the waitlist now. Nice to see Google finally upping their hardware game. Too bad they decided to hold back on doing their own watch though. I really wish this Galaxy Watch was a no compromise Wear OS 3 device but seems close enough and still ahead of what other companies like Fossil or even Mobvoi are offering. Maybe I'm being impatient but I don't want to wait a year to have your watch start realizing it's potential.
@@christianaviles2199 I luckily was able to order my pixel 6 pro. I got my galaxy watch 4 classic a few weeks ago for my Samsung note 10, and am hopeful it's not gonna be too dysfunctional with the pixel. It's gonna be fine I think after this video. Was hoping for a pixel watch though, ngl lol
Sounds familiar. Had a Galaxy watch with my Note 9 and I just bought a pixel 6 pro. I am able to see my texts come in on my watch but I can't access them after they've been received and stored in my phone. I was hunting for what happened to my messaging app and found this video. Thanks!👍🏽
Hi Christian, I have the Google Pixel 6 and thinking of getting the Samsung watch 4. Wondering about your experience since you chose the same combo :) thanks!
Samsung apps are usually coded to use some sort of internal Samsung specific APIs. That why they can't be properly used on other devices. They need API calls that are bundled into Samsung's One UI version of Android.
Great video. Been looking for something like this for a while. I recently went from a Samsung phone to the Pixel 7 with my Galaxy watch5. My biggest disappointment is that my alarms do not sync like they did with my Samsung s21. It would be great if I could get the alarms or reminders to sync.
Remote connections - calling feature on samsung phone is powerful. You can make calls from watch and receive if your phone and watch are connected to wifi ( not necessarily same ) . It's a shame that feature is not available on one plus 7. Deal-breaker for me but already bought the watch
I'm ordering the watch 4 classic through verizon with a trade-in for $200 (bought a 1st gen watch active for $50) and then an extra $180 off for buying an android phone, the pixel 6 pro. I'm paying around $100 for the watch 4 classic 46mm version if you count the money spent on the used watch Active. I hate that Google didn't hit us with the double whammy of a new Pixel phone and watch. I read their newly acquired Fitbit group is working hard on a real Wear OS watch. Then I might have to sell the galaxy watch 4.
I don't know why the link for XDA Developers isn't provided as stated in the video (work-around for Samsung Health app. - non-Samsung smartphones). Others have commented on this, and I can tell the author looks at the comments. Aside from that, an awesome and thoughtful series of videos.
Just ordered this watch for my pixel 5 great content especially since I don't need a new phone this watch is gonna provide what I want and more really getting it so I can receive calls and text while at work without missing em as I do thanks
Waiting until they deliver the Google assistant before buying.... if it actually comes. Also waiting to see if Google announced a new smart watch to compare before choosing
Useful video, cheers! I've just ordered a watch 4 classic and will be paring to a pixel 6 Pro... was looking for a video like this to see how limited things would be
@@theRandy712 the only missing features are blood pressure monitoring and the ecg readings. Heart rate tracking still works as it should, as does everything else including sleep tracking, steps and heart rate etc. Google assistant has just been added too... Overall it works really well would say go for it it's a really nice watch and not that limited being paired with the pixel as its only those 2 features you can't use. I'm not bothered by no ecg or blood pressure reading if I'm honest so that's no big deal for me!
Fantastic video! One doubt though, the camera one app uses the phone's camera or uses it's own camera app on the phone? If so, how's the picture quality compared to the phone camera app?
Hi quick question can a galaxy watch 4 LTE make / receive calls and notifications / messages when phone is not nearby if I have a pixel phone and not a Samsung phone?
Just got a galaxy watch 5 pro golf edition and finding the capsules for Bixby is a bit different now. It is the same Galaxy Wearable > Apps > Bixby but now, it is "More Ways To Use Bixby" and there is no mention of capsules anymore.
Thank you for the video. Can you please tell me why the LTE version is not a standalone device? Why do I need my phone next to me so that my watch can make and receive calls?
I just Hooked up My Galaxy watch 4 classic to my brand new One Plus Open and I Love it. I was tired of my Z Fold 3 and I waited for the Z Fold 6 to drop and I decided to ditch Samsung for a company that doesn't cheat you and puts a 67 watt charger in the box❤
Thank you for the video. It answers some of my questions that I have been looking for. I use Google Pixel 6a phone and have been waiting for the Pixel Watch. But the price point of the Pixel Watch is a bummer. So, I am considering a Samsung Galaxy Watch 5. Samsung offers trade ins of old smart watch.
Impressive video, very informative. One extra question: does afib detection works on non-samsung phones? If not, does the xda modded health app add this feature?
hi. Thanks for your great video. Considering buying a gw4 for the black Friday, and using a non Samsung phone, i'd like to know if the tweak of xda developers is still as buggy as you describe, and if you could give me a RU-vid link that gives the step by step installation guide. Thanks
I've heard that we cannot send or receive calls on a non Samsung device unless we are connected with blutooth on our mobile? Can I not make calls even via wifi or LTE?
Hey man I loved your video. I am watching this video after 1 year because I have ordered my watch 4 classic a few days back. Can you please help me to get the AR watch emoji on non samsung mobile. I know about the bitmoji option available but i still prefer AR one. Can you show if that is possible with any other android? It will be a great help.
Great video! Does anyone know how to find the capsules on an old Samsung phone? Would they be in the galaxy store? Would there be one for messenger so that Bixby can send texts to contacts through voice command? (I have a pixel 5 and the GW 4) thanks!
it real BS that you buy a Samsung watch and they turn off features if you don't have a Sumsung phone.. Sorry all my Samsung phones where junk, and I want this watch for EGC and BP.. Some features I understand because of app security.
Thanks for the video. You have addressed a lot of concerns with me buying a Galaxy watch. Do you know if I can still answer phone calls with a non-Galaxy phone?
Hi! Great info and video. Question for you..i currently have a watch 3 and just switched to the google pixel 6. I noticed when i get msgs on my phone, it doesnt show up on the watch. I downloaded the plug in & accessory apps. I am connecting both devices( watch & phone) via bluetooth as I did with my previous phone ( samsung s10)...any help/assistance you can provide would be much appreciated!
I have been using OnePlus 8 Pro.. Should I go for Galaxy watch 4 LTE Version? Also I have heard from Samsung Store in Delhi, that Barometer, and Altimeter will also not work (Including ECG, & Blood Pressure) with my phone..
Nice was looking at asus phone but felt alot of features would be locked since it's not a Samsung but it's still running Android. Especially how back then alot of people said alot of features don't work smoothly on airpods on non iPhone. So I'd assume it's the same for the galaxy watch but it's pretty neat
honestly I thought the difference would be way worse. The missing apps and keyboard are fixable, I never use my camera-function on watch, ECG and bloodpressure I never used, capsules never either, bedtimemode and DND are on a timer (22:00 - 07:00) and remote connection with calls ain't so bad. Plus AR watchfase is something I'm not interested in.
Hi. Thanks for the video. There's one thing which I can't find on any reviews and videos just yet. Is there an option to answer whatsapp\telegram etc messages for a non-samsung phone users? I'm not talking about short preset answers and emotes - that I can do even on my aincient GearFit2. I've heard that it's somehow possible to use google speech-to text input right from your wrist. Is that true?
Only question I have is I saw that you selected the AR emoji watch face for the pixel 5 but is there also the bitmoji watch face available for the non Samsung phone on the Galaxy 4 watch?
I liked your video but you CAN send messages from your watch without installing all that stuff. Just scroll to contacts, select who you want to message & click, you are immediately given the choice between call or text.
Bed time mode is available on Pixel phones (at least on P3 and P4). There is a notification + DND + B&W screen.. Do not understand why you do not have it as an option..
Also If you have a work profile, and you want to get a notification from your work calendar, or will not be able to receive any notification case you have a non-Samsung device.
It's such a shame that we are still waiting for a single, recommendable for everyone, "Apple Watch for Android" smartwatch after all these years. I think any Fossil Group watch gets close, as they run pretty much stock Wear OS, but I'm also watching to see if they finally make a Pixel watch, and what Fitbit's planned Wear OS watch will be like since Google has acquired them in-house.
I am having non android phone, whastapp notification is not showing on my watch only i am receiving notifications of call. Even normal text message is also not showing. Any idea to rectify this
Hi, I recently bought Galaxy watch 4 bluetooth 44mm and I have Oneplus 6t, after configuring watch with phone I don't see Gpay or Samsung Pay app. Can you please help me how can I get those apps.
Hey! Great video! So you happen to know how to overcome Bixby texting. I can't start a text via voice with Bixby. It says "that's not supported when paired with this mobile device"
