Finding a smartwatch that ticks every box

In a market dominated by Apple and Fitbit, Samsung is trying to make its wearables cool again with a two-pronged strategy: having a single smartwatch that ticks every box instead of the multiple options available under the Gear line-up; and switching to the more popular Galaxy brand name for its smartwatches. Even though it looks bigger than the Apple Watch 4, the Galaxy Watch doesn’t feel hefty. While there’s ample space to track all the activities and apps, it is still smaller compared to the Apple Watch series 4’s 1.78-inch screen. Performance-wise Driven by Samsung’s Exynos 9110 dual-core chipset with 768 MB RAM, the Galaxy Watch is quite smooth while performing most tasks, except for a few elements like Bixby. While the Apple Watch Series 4 can last almost an entire day on a full charge, most Google Wear OS watches often need to be charged twice in a day.
