IMO In terms of style the galaxy watch 2018 is a winner for me, it is more masculine. However its fitness issues/problems (heart rate, steps, sleep tracker) are a serious drawback.
What are your thoughts?

No, I think that's potentially a Galaxy Sports watch which won't have all the features of a Galaxy Watch, just the fitness features and one or two other things. The next Galaxy Watch won't be until at least August 2019.

For those old enough to remember them, it looks like a Clear Swatch.. I am almost ashamed to admit I owned a number of Swatches including a clear one (that yellowed with time).


I should add that I don't know if the current Swatch company is the same. The models in the 80s ran $25 to $50 and were all plastic and vinyl.

Whadd'ya mean almost ashamed?! I loved my Swatches back in the 80s, my favourite had cut outs in the face so you could see the mechanics. Ok, they were obviously quartz and not automatic movements, but great value for money. You might be surprised, if you didn't already know, that the Swatch group also make Tissot and Omega watches.

Anyway, back to the point, the render in the OP's pic looks awful in my opinion. I think there will be more teasers/leaks (depending on how you look at it) before we get to see it for real. But it won't be a contender for the Galaxy Watch, no way. That will come when they release Galaxy Watch Mk II.

The dilemma for the OP (looking at Kko's other posts) is whether to get the current Galaxy Watch, given all the improvements, or wait for the next one. But will the next one be bug free or will it be a repeat of what we had to endure?

I had about 10 Swatches.. Lol

Ah, but how many did you wear at the same time? I believe that was the trend if I remember rightly! Well, in the UK, anyway...

I think I wore two once but it annoyed me. I mixed and matched to my clothing.

Dude!
But I didn't like the 'Pop Swatches' - the over large ones. They weren't cool at all.

I’m glad I picked up the current Sport at Best Buy when it went on sale for $159... not feeling the design of this Sport Over the current version.

The OP is trying to hype you guys with random news... Too early for rumours. Link if true said Galaxy SPORT... Your post title does not match the description of your link. You should be a journalist.

The title of the OP's post is a question. I think it's more of a misunderstanding. Not an intention to deceive anyone.

the problems you describe with (heart rate, steps, sleep tracker) are often caused by people wearing the watch not tight enough and/or to low down on the wrist for the sensors to read correctly, try and find a strap that suit you better and I'm sure it will be more accurate

Yeah I agree. I like 2018 better even though it has some issues.

BTW I do know that sounded like an Apple-esque excuse but try and pay attention to it anyway

Smaller display, smaller battery (?!!)... Sounds like two steps back.
