Anyone getting the new watch 6? I am sticking with my 5 I don't see and reason to switch I usually keep my watches for two years. I
 
I went from the 4 to the 5 but only paid like $80 it's like 135 this time around so I doubt I will. I still have this unopened duro charger I got also for free when I got my 5. I don't see a need to really upgarde and I would get the same if I did the 40mm regular.
 
I'm getting one (40mm) for the bride to replace her Watch 4. I will take a look at the Classic since I like the rotating bezel, but depending on price/deals, I could easily stick with my 5.
 
I'm trading in my Watch 4 Classic for a Watch 6 Classic. If it wasn't for the great Samsung trade in deal I wouldn't be doing the upgrade.
 
I'm doing a chat now and he said he can help me with the extra $50 off cause I watched a you tube video or some video where he said use my link for an extra $50 off and it didn't work. I also have Rakuten for another 12% off so I can get it for like 74 bucks but I don't really no the difference and if it's worth it to just go from the 5 regular 40mm to the 6 one.
 
I just ordered the Watch 6 40mm for the bride. trading in her Watch 4. picking up at the Samsung Experience store on Friday.
 
Upgraded from an original galaxy watch active to a watch 6 44mm. Only reason is the screen died on my old watch. So far I am pretty happy with it.
 
after handling the W6C at the Samsung store on Saturday (was picking up the bride's W6 40mm), I caved and ordered the W6C 47mm yesterday...will trade my W5. I've really missed the rotating bezel, especially after realizing how many accidental touches/interactions I've had over the past year. I never had those problems with the OG Galaxy Watch and the W4C. {fingers crossed}
 
So you guys like having the 6 Classic 47mm larger one over the 5 Pro? Trying to decide if to get for my husband Rakuten has 12% cashback and Samsung is giving 250 trade in plus i think 80 off totaling like 75 bucks less 12% back

Well, what do you get and lose for spending those $82? You lose battery life, that GPSX thing and the titanium case, you gain a rotating bezel and some extra weight on the wrist... Only your husband can answer whether gaining the bezel is worth $82 and the other compromises.

I caved in and I got the same small 40mm not sure difference in the 6 from my 5 x 40mm but for $57 bucks I did it. Now my husband needs to decide on what size classic he wants before this deal is over. Can I order again under my account cause of the extra healthcare discount I get?

I don't know what the GPSX is and I am not sure how much he used the bezel before and I didn't know the battery was worse how much worse is it? Has anyone upgraded and sorry they did it? I'll have to ask him again and tell him what you said thanks!

I'm sorry I updated from my watch 5 Pro and worse from my incredible Apple Watch 8 Ultra. But I hated the iPhone and can't use the Watch 8 Ultra with my Sammy phone so bought the Watch 6 Classic..

The watch 6 classic, FOR ME, has been a complete disaster. Having had open heart surgery I depended on the watch for accurate steps, heart monitoring, and sleep data. The data it was giving me disagrees wildly with both my Apple Watch and my old Watch 5 Pro. So, I just bought a Pixel Watch 2 and while I don't like the look of it at all, it is giving me data that is also in line with my previous Sammy watch and my Apple 8 Ultra.

I just decided today to ditch the Samsung Watch 6 Classic and stick with the Pixel Watch 2. As always, YMMV, and I hope you have great success with yours.

BTW, I tried working with Samsung support on the issues but got nothing but run around, barely understandable English and promises of return calls that never happened.
