New Update-Oct 20

[ABOSWORTH007]

Interested if hrm accuracy has been improved.

I did a late 6 miler tonight and HR seemed pretty solid. It did not spike up for no reason like I've seen in the past. It seemed right on actually. There was one point where thr HR dropped off for a few seconds but then it came right back. Hopefully I continue to see solid results. Probably will do another 6 miler tomorrow and Sunday will be 10+ so I'm curious to see how it does on the 10 miler.

Is this a BT version only update? Still on BUI5 here and have been checking daily since I heard it was in the wild.

Samsung's normal update cycle for their watches is that BT models get the updates first, then, normally, after a few days to a week, the LTE updates start to roll out. I believe the wait is due to carrier sign-off.

Yeah, the only way you can ever get me to do 10 miles manually is on a bike. I can't run.

Great to hear that things look good!

So far so good. I'll report back after my long run tomorrow

I'm getting the update now! I read about it on here and forgot to check for it and just now saw this thread and it reminded me to do it. Is their any watch faces and phone themes that match? I'm using a facer Halloween watch face now but would love a matching one for my phone.

Mine isn't activated on a carrier yet. Bought it outright and unlocked. Hope that doesn't slow it down for me.

Does not matter if it is activated, if it is an LTE Model/Part Number, will go in the LTE update cycle.

Watch did well on my long run today. I didn't see any abnormal spiking like I have in the past.

Battery life to me is better....Was 92% at 6:00am and at 9:00pm it is 77%. I didn't do much other than 20 minute auto detected walk and notifications thru out day, but better than past.
