Yea, i echo. I have been using Samsung products for the last 10 years and changed my phone 5 times , the latest i hold id Galaxy Note 9. I got the watch which is overpriced and as said no usefull apps

    1: Most ridiculous Application Store ever, there's literally not a single useful app in Samsung store.
    2: Paid apps are as useless as free apps just overpriced AF.
    3: Useless free watch faces and over priced paid watch faces.
    4: Can't create own watch Faces
    5: Lack of a map app
    6: Lack of a at least usable Assistan
    7: Horrible connectivity
    8: Dozens of bugs
    9: Endless crashes
    10: To use Smasung watches you MUST install so many Trash Samsung apps on your phone and give them access to all your private stuff and let them run 24/7 in background which is not privacy friendly and soaks your battery.
    If you search for more problems just take a look at Samsung community site and take a look at wearable part, Much fun with finding Endless problems there.

Athletes also need gear that lasts their whole workout, so of course it needs a good battery. Simple logic. But keep your Casio and move on. You can't talk about Samsung, when you live for Casio.

                    Sports gear is light for a reason. That's why they make an Active watch as light as possible.

                      Anyway, if you are as athletic as you brag about, you should be strong enough to carry any watch. Without feeling it's there. But nice trolling though.

                                  I also use a Garmin 235.

                                  I prefer my Samsung-Tizen EXCEPT it has poor integration with Heart Rate Monitors versus a Garmin.

                                      HELL NO. As long as Tizen OS in instlled on Galaxy Watches, I'm not gonna even think about 'em. Samsung store is just Trass and horrible. It's full of useless free apps and overpriced semisuefull apps. No matter how beautiful or cool they are but when you can not even Install a simple MAP on your watch, or control your camera, or at least a halfway good assisstant, i see no reason to buy one. Long live Pure Wear OS.

                                        AnonD-762416, 08 Feb 2019In guessing this one is a lot lighter. It looks quite sleek.And last shorter on battery. So you need to charge every day, instead of every 4th day. Better to get the heavier one and have longer battery time.
