>15mah increase
Wow it's focking nothing. Why even bother making a newspiece over this.

    Sewter, 18 Mar 2023Without RFID protection if anyone taps a machine on ur watc... moreThat machine also works through that "protection". The thieves only needs a rooted phone.

      kek, 18 Mar 2023As long as these run WearOS, battery life will be terrible ... moreDropping the rotating bezel too ... It's better for sport like swimming perhaps but in day2day usage, the dial is far better :)

      I will not change my Watch3 Titanium for another model that has AT LEAST 2 days of battery life.

        Anonymous, 18 Mar 2023And let me guess, the same old processor introduced with the 4?Which I assume is the same used in the Watch5 I have, doing a perfectly good job? Who cares if it works well?

            Anonymous, 18 Mar 2023WEhat about Samsung Pay?Hardly works anywhere. Samsung didn't do anything on making partnerships with banks or shops outside of America and Korea. Apple pay works almost everywhere. Same with Google pay. I think we have 3 shops on a whole island, that accepts Samsung pay.

              This will be a great bundle for the s24 ultra next year! Was about to check out 23 ultra then read this news, together with the watch 5 having the ECG and blood pressure feature in PH. So i gues ill have to wait another year to upgrade my phone.

                    That so minimal do you even call that "bigger", it wont make even marginal battery life increase at all.

                    WearOS itself need to be futher optimized else it will be 2 days at most unless you have 2nd display that dont suck battery. Maybe newer and more efficient processor could help a bit. Otherwise its all in the OS already.

                    Well even Apple cannot save their Apple Watch battery life so maybe it that hard to optimize watch OS that have lot of function you barely use after 2 weeks having the device.

                      Samsung,

                      Bring out a square option too

                          As long as these run WearOS, battery life will be terrible no matter what.

                          Dropping Tizen was a huge mistake

                            Good! Cause batt life is abyssmal on the 5

                              Gear s3 frontier had 380. Odd the newest version isn't much bigger on the battery.
