    I have the smaller version (42mm) and I get into a 3rd day before needing a charge.
    Some quick tips on better battery performance.
    1. Turn OFF wifi (there is no use for it as your always connected via bluetooth on your phone).
    2. Turn OFF GPS (turn it on only when you need it)
    3. Keep brightness below 5 and have "auto low brightness" ON
    4. Clear "Recent apps" under settings whenever multiple apps open.
    5. If you don't use the heart rate monitor turn it off or keep it at every 10 minute interval.
    6. Use watch face that is dominantly black and be cautious of which watch faces you use as some consume a lot more battery than others.
    7. Keep widgets to a minimum.
    8. Turn OFF "Voice wake-up"

    Still have the Gear S3 Frontier since 2016 but decided to give the 46mm version a whirl.
    Charged it to 100%, set it up, and less than 10 hours later I'm sitting at 86%.
    I do not believe this watch, like the Gear S3 Frontier, will last a 1/4 of what Samsung claims.
    I've noticed that after setting it up Samsung really pushes for the sleep mode. I believe if that was on I'd be sitting at a higher battery percentage. Going to give it a few more days before sending it back or keep it.
    Great review and TY for pointing out how the inside gets scratched if you swap out bands alot.

    • @TechJungle
      @TechJungle  6 лет назад +1

      Thank you! I agree, the Samsung claim of 4 to 7 days battery life is really based on having a super boring grayscaled watch face which is kind of misleading.

  • @venithaherarth1488
    @venithaherarth1488 5 лет назад +1

    Got the same 46mm version, only just found out about the watch only mode (thanks to this vid). But personally I get a solid 3 to 4 days of battery and haven't had any hr or steps tracking inconsistencies or problems at all whether I'm out on a run or just sitting around. Very during easily customizable whether it's bands or the watch face itself.

    hey buddy great job. just a note about the fit/finish feel of the loose/flexible side buttons; they aint loose. they are in fact fixed and resting on floating a rocking base which permits the tabs to take stress and avoid being stressed, or pressed inadvertently by a jacket cuff, or a dress shirt button over stressing a static/zero flex button, or repeated aggressive pressings etc. its a high end build quality factor that the sung folks thought of to avoid issues that competitors have seen. been through 2 prior apple watches and the galaxy is a tank in comparison. both pros and cons but this thing is in a different league. txs pal good clip

      It's tough to say if Samsung is going to allow Google Play Music to be integrated into the watch. They may currently have a deal with Spotify OR GPM doesn't have a lot of interest in creating a companion app. I use GPM so I would like to see this happen myself.

    @armandomorreale7162 6 лет назад +2

    I bought one and returned it for two reasons. The first was the fit and finish of the buttons. The reviewer is right, they are responsive, but they could have been a built more rugged. They wobbled worse than a 10 dollar Kmart watch. The second was the fact that the stair counter / altimeter and step counter were horrible at tracking elevation and steps respectively. I wanted a round smart watch to use because I’ve been tired of using my Apple Watch, but this one...even tho it looks great, just faltered a bit too much. Disconnected a few times. The software is just a tad buggy.

    • @TechJungle
      @TechJungle  6 лет назад

      Excellent response! I returned the 46mm because I ultimately didn't like the buttons too. Also, it started to feel a bit bulky on my wrist. I went ahead and picked up the 42mm and it feels a little more polished. The buttons still have some wobble but not as bad as the 46mm. I'm going to test this one out for a few days and report back.

      Alex ramos I was using it with an iPhone 8 Plus. It’s a handsome timepiece for sure. I know it was going to be a non-optimal experience with a non-Android phone. I just used it for notifications really. I barely reply to messages on my Apple Watch. I wish it did have message replying though. I mean, Pebble had that functionality on iPhone with voice texting and it was stellar. I don’t understand why the Sammy watches don’t have that on iPhone.

    I have a Gear S3 Frontier and a 42mm rose gold Galaxy watch. I love them both. If you have a Gear S3, upgrading to the Galaxy watch is not really necessary in terms of the features. I wanted the Galaxy watch for the smaller size and the great-looking gold color, which looks great on men and women in my opinion. My phone pairs automatically with whichever watch is powered on. I get about the same 2 day battery life with either watch.

    • @TechJungle
      @TechJungle  6 лет назад

    • @robertnoblitt518
      @robertnoblitt518 6 лет назад +1

      @@TechJungle The 42mm Galaxy watch has a smaller battery than the Gear S3, but may be more efficient. So I think I could get 2 days use with either watch, but I recharge ar least one watch while I'm sleeping, so have not really tested that. It of course depends on how the watch is used. I like to have AOD enabled. If you don't use AOD, & the screen is dimmed down, I think you should get 2 days with the 42mm Galaxy watch, maybe more.

      To be honest, both watches are great. It's be hard to choose a winner as the Apple Watch has a lot of support from 3rd party developers and a sharper display. The Galaxy Watch has a better watch like design and that rotating bezel. I'd say the Apple Watch is better at tracking fitness and the Galaxy Watch is better a looking like a real watch.

    NONE of the watches have done EVERYTHING I wanted, all of them have been impressive for what you could do with something on your wrist.
    I find it trying when reviewers slam a device for not having a feature they would like, build your own! But you knew, (or should have known) any limitations before buying it.
    Review what it does, not what it doesn't, that's just a cheap shot.

      I think you might want to take a look at one in person. Best Buy has them on display in most stores. The display is pretty good, but not as sharp as the current Samsung flagship phones out. I want a PPI over 400 on the watch display before I'm 💯 satisfied.

    I love all my Samsung Galaxy products and will probably never own another Apple product again. Apple is just greedy. They charge their buyers astronomical sums of money for their products(with very little improvement with each consecutive model) and also repairs. That being said, the quality of Bixby its total shit. Other then that, IMO Samsung is much better than Apple. Does anyone know why Samsung hasn't radically improved Bixby? I literally asked it five simple questions in a row to test it out and failed each time. Come on Samsung, you guys are better then this! For now I guess I'm sticking with asking questions through Google on my phone. Also, why can't they figure out a way to put the Play Store on their watches and just list applicable apps.
