A while ago it should be like that, it does not make much sense to buy a Galaxy Watch if you have another phone that is not Android and less with an iPhone where we know that Apple Watch is the best by far.
Each watch should be with the same brand, so they have better compatibility and functions.

AngryLithuanian, 12 Aug 2021Can you link the source of this information?Sorry, replied to wrong message before.
There are lots of pages on the www which discuss methods to hack your watch in order to make ecg and bp work with a non-samsung smartphone, but these pages seem a bit more legit for providing info:
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-Watch/ECG-and-BP-on-non-Samsung-phones/m-p/1795622
also at the bottom of this page in the fineprint--> https://www.samsung.com/uk/watches/galaxy-watch/galaxy-watch4-classic-black-bt-sm-r890nzkaeua/
It says:
ECG and BP feature only to be used by 22 years+. For accurate BP readings, monthly calibration required by GP or BP monitor & arm cuff. Requires a Galaxy smartphone running Android 7.0 or above

If the Watch4 44mm gets bigger screen the Classis 46mm I will be disappointed. I need to check the website since it was hard for your majesty to put full details. Also thank you for Not detailing differences bw bands!

I couldn't get my Galaxy Watch nor Galaxy Watch Active 2 to connect to my iPhone 11 Pro Max. The arrival of the unimpressive Galaxy Watch 3 coupled with this fact made me sell my Galaxy Watch and buy the Apple Watch 6. My first ever Apple Watch but definitely not my last.

See now Fold3, it become a little bit more attractive, and more so with Flip3. I'm eager to test it but to see next version too, for the owners of Tizen watches I don't see this as an update.

But I'll go for a Green GW4 44mm to test it anyway, without the dial since Wear OS wasn't thinked like Tizen was with the rotative physical ring :)

But i would love this smartwatch IF it would be fully compatible with both ios and all android phones(functions like ECG and bloodpressure dont work on non samsung phones)
What if i end up wanting to have an iphone?
Same reason i dont buy an apple watch, what if next year i end up wanting an android phone.

Unfortunately Samsung has stopped me purchasing this fantastic watch, as i have a Pixel 5, but ECG & blood pressure will only work if you have a Samsung Phone, this is terrible as this is a WearOS not Tizan smartwatch.
