      I totally agree with the simplicity of your statement, however some iPhone users don’t like the look of the Apple Watch. There are a few features you give up when pairing an iPhone to a Galaxy Watch like notification responses and better application integration. Some may be able to overlook those shortcomings for a round display that has decent health functionality, simple notifications, and more customization options. I’ll definitely include the drawbacks in my GWA2 review.

    I was involved in testing both these watches for Network/App compatibility and had each of them on my wrist for close to 8 weeks and despite having options to keep them both for FREE, I chose to return Apple Watch 5 (Ceramic version) for another GWA2 44mm. That should tell you which one of the two you have compared here in this video do I prefer. :)
    Reasons for selecting GWA2: Design, Customization, Adaptability (can be worn for every occasion) & Battery life (I get 2.2 - 3.5 days on full charge with AOD and all functionalities active.
    Reasons for returning AW5: Design (looks like Kidizoom that my kids own), limited Customization & HORRIBLE battery life.

    • @TechJungle
      @TechJungle  5 лет назад +8

    • @kayennmay7587
      @kayennmay7587 5 лет назад +8

      @@TechJungle The digital bezel is a masterstroke even if Apple treads into circular territory. Also, after testing both extensively for all available Application (essentials) honestly, the argument that AW5 is more accurate than GW & GWA2 is simply fictitious. Both have the same degree of inaccuracy when it comes to measuring steps, heart rate etc. Where GWA2 wins is its almost accurate Sleep Tracking. Also Samsung health is more matured platform which in a way helps Galaxy Watches despite of its inaccuracy.

    This is the ONLY comparison video (at least that I've personally found) that favorably compares the GWA2 with the Apple Watch S5 in a head-to-head comparison. I honestly expected the apple watch to win here, but was pleasantly surprised at your tally at the end. I am not an apple fan--however, I am VERY impressed with their watches as a whole. The series 4 and 5 almost made me want an iPhone. I currently have the Galaxy Watch and the Gear Sport (but I'm hoping to trade up to the Watch Active 2 soon). Your video sealed the deal for me. Plus, I agreed with you on every point...although you could have brought up the ECG capabilities that apple has right out of the box vs eventually getting that with an upgrade down the line with the Watch Active 2. All in all, well done and thank you for your insight!

    • @tasoffiatti
      @tasoffiatti 4 года назад

      Regarding the ECG, I think is better he didn't bring it up, since it depends on Government authorization to work. So, whilst in the USA Apple Watch 5 has the aforementioned functionality working right out of the box, the same isn't true for all countries, like mine for instance, where both the Apple Watch 5 and the Galaxy Watch Active 2 despite having the hardware, aren't authorized to offer it to users, hence we can't use it in neither of them. So I believe not mentioning ECG capabilities makes the video more suitable for global audience instead of only for the US and maybe some few other countries. Best regards, pal! Oh.. and don't mind my broken English, please, I'm still learning it. =)

    Very good information. Oh, it is not which watch is the best to buy, it is which is better to buy. From grammar school remember the sequence of good, better, best, it is important. When there are two use better, three or more use best. FYI. the background music is extremely annoying, be aware we came to hear and understand you not fight the noise (music). During a business presentation they do not play background music, church minster when speaking does not play background music. Reason, they want their audience hearing and understand what is being stated. Many folks have hearing and language difficulties thus attempting to hear and understand you they must fight the music. Turn off the background music.

    The pricing bit was not entirely correct as the series 5 has LTE. To get LTE on Active 2 you must get the stainless steel version (aluminium version only has BT) which costs, you guessed it, basically as much as the Apple watch.
    I'd say the Active 2 would still get a slight edge over the Apple watch because of the styling and wide variety of customization options available, despite having a miserable app selection in app store.

As for responding to notifications from the watch, you're not going to be able to, which is kind of bummer for sure. Aesthetically, this watch looks better than the Apple Watch and I can live without sending messages from my watch as my phone is nearby most of the time anyways.
