justasmile, 12 Sep 2023That double tap feature can come in handy, and probably oth... moreYou are saying, Samsung once again used their time machine, went to the future, came back and introduced it with Galaxy Watch 6 Series before Apple? Or maybe, they just did it first!
Oh, I see. Even my Watch 4 Classics has these new universal gestures since Wear OS 4 including Tap, Double Tap, Fist, Double Fist, Shaking the wrist.
Edit: Double Tap will become available in October on Apple Watch. The time between Samsung made it public in June and today was not enough to copy the feature.

    This double tap must be copy pasted by others and it will be

      This double tap feature is cool.

        Does it mean 18h of hiking with location tracking? My 6 years old watch can do about 11h now.

          They want to sell you plastic watch bands made from oil over quality leather that can last a lifetime… At least they didn’t call it that ridiculous gimmick “vegan leather”!

                I stopped reading at claimed battery life... what's the point to have smartest watch ever when you have to decide will you use it during the day or during the night... and never leave a house for longer than one day

                  gab88, 12 Sep 2023all day battery - 18 hours LMAOWith screen and animations, etc.. You can probably get a full couple of days with full-on screen off. I do this with all smartwatches I have. This is by far the best smartwatch on the market, and battery life is getting better.

                    All day battery on a smartwatch is not something to be proud of as a company.....

                      That double tap feature can come in handy, and probably other brands are going to copy that feature soon.

                            "Samsung did it!"

                            Same story as every year.

                              I'm not watching it but did it really take them 1 hour to announce a smart watch or is the GSM writers just slow

                                Apple shuld really make the watch series a 2 year upgrade not yearly
