Can any of these watches be connected through Bluetooth to fitness equipment as a HR monitor?
Had a fit bit for 4 years and it does not show my heart rate , only steps. Useless and they try and make you buy a preminim membership to use any workouts. Totally a rip off. I will never purchase this brand again. I restarted the watch but heart rated has never ever worked on it . Making it really a cheap and useless product.
Outstanding video.I have to go with the MAMACOO, especially with that green dial as my favorite
How about Huawei watch gt 5 pro?
hope huawei gt 5 watch be reviewed
@mikeobrienmedia or anyone is there a watch that has a working gps speedometer that does not require a connected smart phone?
got the one plus watch 2r for 128 USD
Give huawei watches a look, amongst the best heart rate tracker, works with both ios and android and has at least 7 days of battery life. Oh yea for like half the price of an apple watch
Is yours LTE?
When it comes to fine imitation watches, MAMACOO delivers. I’ve bought from them several times, and I’ve never been let down.
The only good thing about these smart watches are the wake up alarm thats pretty much it
Kospet Optimus 2 all the way
It seriously bothers me only apple makes square smartwatches

I had the Galaxy watch 5Pro for about 5 months and sold it to a friend cause it was so sluggish and laggy that made me nearly furious. I used the money I got from it to buy the Pixel watch 2 in Bay color and I simply can’t get over it. The only thing that i miss from my Galaxy watch is the 45mm size.
Personally, for a hybrid smartwatch. The Tissot T touch is a way more elegant than the hybrid watch you’re talking about. It also has way more options on how you want to customize the watch to your preference with different styles. Tag also has some nice smartwatches. If you’re going to say the best. You need to incorporate all the brands. At the end of the day, you only try to push what you think is best and never look at the other companies like Tag or Tissot. There are a few more but those are examples. Your review is no different than the other 100 people that do reviews.Let face it. Your review is bias just like everyone else.
I’m looking to get one for my mom as her everyday use and health tracking she doesn’t do as much fitness which would you recommend?
I just got a galaxy watch fe coming from a galaxy watche 2
Don’t buy Galaxy Watch 4 it’s a POJ, one day battery and slow response. I have just replaced it with Xiaomi Watch S3, not an Android Wear OS watch but man the watch rocks, 10 day battery, practical, and most important of all, it costs less than $140, what a bargain!
really dumb but what if i want a non apple watch for an iphone (long story short i have both samsung and iphone but i recently switched back over to iphone as my daily and the samsung is there for occasional use)
Just switched to galaxy watch ultra from watch 4 classic. The older one had very bad battery life (with aging) and it was slow.
I personally love the watch ultra design in white, it looks gorgeous while retaining a circular big display.
I have a 46mm galaxy R805u I love its been used every day has a few nicks but works battery life is going. Should I give it up or can I have it refurbished
What about nothing watch pro 2?
The price is inexpensive, but is it accurate??
Venu 3 on top🎉
Video -audio OFF SYNC
Am a t mobile but it runs on Android am a non Samsung user 😂😂😂
Now whixh is one i dont need a subscription for
im looking for a smart watch with a ringing alarm
I personally wear a Galaxy Watch6, not the classic as I don’t care for the rotating bezel. I love my watch, its battery life could be better but I charge it while I work after I wake up and it charges up really quickly. It’s also one of the few watches I find comfortable enough to sleep with, I don’t have large wrists so the slimmer design is perfect for me.
You’d do better if you stop chatting so much keep the watch to see for every body.
What’s the best smartwatch that’s compatible for all android phones? Thank you
Hello Mike, I have a Google pixel watch 3 45 mm and I’m very impressed with the battery life on this watch compared to my Google pixel watch 1, I’m liking the auto sleep tracker feature, I also have WhatsApp on my watch and wonder will WhatsApp work while the phone is switched off?
Apple watch, less than one day battery is unacceptable for the price. I have an Apple watch 8 and am trading it in for a Garmin with one week battery. Hard to track sleep while my watch is on the charger and I’m an Apple fan!
Hi you didn’t talk about the Huawei Gt 4 in this video, any thoughts on it ? Great video by the way thanks !
Hello. I also want advice if possible. I am interested in a smartwatch for iOS less Apple Watch only for notifications and minimal health. What do you recommend like Huawei, Garmin, Amazfit. Thanks
There is no Fitbit in this list ??
Typical American, I;ve tried them all??? North US only have a very LIMITED brand and smartwatch and smartphone varieties. You’ve missed many brands like Oppo, Huawei and Xiaomi… and many more
Mike – I’m using tye ticwatch pro 5 with my oneplus open and it looks and feels really good. I guess they’re a bit slow on the os updates but I’m fine with that. I get 3-4 days of battery life with all notifications on. I used to wear the huawei gt3 pro but it wasn’t built for replying to messages – and that battery lasted 12 days!
Galaxy 7?
Best battery 4 days? My Coros watch lasts up to 30 days. That’s with about 6-7 hours of fitness tracking.
Super
Thanks for sharing, Mike.
I hear pixel watch 3 is fantastic
why are apple products so ugly ?
Nothing beats Samsung and apple
Really just hate how all smart watches seem to be fitness focused. Would much rather have a purely notification smart watch that uses the extra room for more storage and better battery.
WOOP requires a subscription to use, as i understand it.
Got a Galaxy 6 classic about a month ago – so far so good.
One funny thing – I was playing with a dog some weeks back. I would pick up a ball and throw it, and the dog would take off, get it and bring it back. At one point the watch started buzzing – I was curious what it was all about – there was a thing on the screen that said "Did you fall?", or "Do you need help?" – can’t remember which. I select "No" – it then had a menu with things like "Yes, I fell, but I got back up", "I didn’t fall", and something else – I guess to summon help.
For men’s when it’s comes to watches is a BIG FACE if the pixel watch had a Big face I would have buy it but it’s doesn’t this why I got the Samsung watch 6 classic 47mm I wish they would have a 50mm but Samsung they just stick with the same thing
