Does anyone know if there are any videos comparing the OS of the Watch 4 with the Watch 3?
I have the Watch 3 and it can be annoying to handle notifications because you have to click the small 3 vertical dots once you've gone into the detail view of the notification. Does anyone know if this, in particular, has been improved on in the S4? Thanks.

I just got this watch on the tmobile deal. I was hesitant to buy any smart watch because I personally think they all have too many issues. Here's my honest opinion. Its worth $200 but not a dollar more. It has the most features on the market, but it masters none. Every feature is average, nothing excels. I personally use mine for running and everything is about 5-10% off in terms of accuracy, heart rate, gps, etc. Overall I'm happy with it since I have realistic expectations about it. Everyone complains about not having ecg/blood pressure unless you have a Samsung phone, but the truth is those features don't even work accurately to begin with. This is a solid casual watch. Battery life is about 10-12 hours for me on a 40mm gps version, should be more on this one.
This watch doesn't work with an iPhone and ecg works only if you have a Samsung. Don't understand what's the issue because I have been using AW watches with an iPhone but finally ditched them for poor battery life. While battery life on this is better but mostly you have to charge it everyday!
To me looks like they recreated the Galaxy Active 2 and named it watch 4, and recreated the Galaxy Watch and named it Watch 4 classic, for me the favorite ones has been the S2, S3 frontier and Watch 3, everything else is just meh!
Samsung used to use Tizen OS to run their watches.
From Galaxy watch uses wear OS which makes it not compatible with non Android device

I've been looking for a smart watch mostly for health tracking. How would you guys compare this to an apple watch ( I guess 7?) in terms of health tracking features like blood pressure, heart monitoring, etc? Or is there any other brand better for these kind of things?

I love Samsung products and currently use Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G, NOT using Apple iPhone!
