Watch to go with new Note 10

[KruseLudsMobile]

Galaxy Watch

46mm - all the others have crappy battery life.

Galaxy watch 46mm here also, had it for over 6 months now and it's great.
It worked fine with my Note 9 and the same with my Note 10+.

Also came from iPhone XS Max and Watch 4. I got the Note 10+ and paired it with a Galaxy Watch 46mm. Works pretty good but not as polished as the Apple Watch.

I agree with the latter...going with the active 2. I had a gear sport but it had finally gave in and started freezing up on me but I loved that watch. However since it was still under warranty at best buy instead of getting another one I upgraded(so I thought) to the active. If I knew at that time what I know now, I would have waited until the active 2 came out. The 1st gen active is okay...it looks nice, tells time, but besides that I don't care for it.

On the Galaxy Watch, can you set up any app to use as a complication? On my AW I always had a timer complication b/c I use it several times a day. My Active doesn't even have a built in timer. I had to download a timer from the Galaxy Store, and even though it's made by Samsung I can't choose it as a complication for some odd reason.

Galaxy watch has been out for a bit, I added a stainless steel band and bezel to match. Makes all my apple watch wearing friends jealous! I can see an easy 2-3 years before I think of an upgrade.

I changed the band on mine but I also like that fact that you can get bezels for it.

Oh man you ain't kidding ... I couldn't deal with it

It literally drove me back to iOS because the Apple Watch was so much better.

Yeah, the Apple Watch is honestly what keeps me going back to iOS. There's just nothing quite like it on this side.

Note 10+ 5G coupled with Samsung Gear s3 Frontier.

 

[me just saying]

I'm going to hold onto my frontier until it dies. It's the last watch with the MST. I'm really bummed that the newer ones dropped that feature, I use it all the time.

last watch with mst? wasn't it the only watch with mst. s2 does not have it.

 

[me just saying]

I am using the gear s2 classic with my note 10+. it is a keeper in spite of not having mst. I believe it is one of the smallest of the different gear watches.

Have been using fossil smart watches since years now...Now with Note 10 plus Got galaxy active watch at a discount price...thinking of selling the fossil watch and use active with Note 10+...Guys who are using Galaxy active watch how is it ?..never used a Samsung watch only android wear

 

[galaxyfive]

Coming from iPhone and Apple Watch. I have note 10+ on way. What’s the best all around watch out that I can use for this phone? I work out daily but also want something that is good at everything. Wait on Active 2?

The Garmin Fenix series. Plays nicely with Android or Apple devices. Excellent battery life, very comfortable. Seamless data uploads through the Garmin Connect App.

Galaxy Watch

I concur The Galaxy watch is great. I've used many smart watches in the past and shortly have up on them until I got the Galaxy watch.

Have you gotten the Active yet? It's nice looking, and super lightweight, but boy is that screen tiny compared to what I'm used to. I haven't used Wear OS in a while, but the Watch Active isn't nearly as customizable as my Apple Watch.

Isn't that something?!?!? An Apple product being more customizable than something Samsung/Android.

I did the exact same thing. My wife and I participated in the Note 10+ BOGO (actually $950 off the Note 10+) and the BOGO on the Galaxy Watches through Verizon. I love the phone, more than I thought I would and the Google Assistant has been a better overall experience compared to Siri (especially when controlling music on my Sonos systems throughout my house with my voice) but the Galaxy Watch isn't as polished as my Apple Watch was. It handles everything I used my Apple Watch for: reading and quick responding to texts, taking the occasional phone call when I'm away from my phone, tracking my steps (I much prefer Samsung Health because it can track what I've eaten), controlling music/media playback on my phone, and handling vocal questions about the weather.

I would have gone with a Fossil or some other watch but, on Samsung devices, their Galaxy Watch line seems to have the best integration.
