History:
The first smartwatch I got was the apple series 2 and I loved this watch but I was not too fond of the fact that it was only 2 days battery when I switched to Samsung I got the Samsung galaxy watch which was amazing in terms of battery life. it gave me at least 4 days of battery. Samsung galaxy watch came with 472 mAh.
the things I didn't like about this watch is
-
chunky and not good for activity
-
charging speed was too slow
due to this chunky size, I then switched to Samsung watch 3 and I think this was the worst move by Samsung cause yes it was less chunky and looked better but they kept the same CPU that was already 2+ years old, and battery life was almost half of the Samsung galaxy watch and charging speed was still too slow.
then I switched to Suunto 7 and I loved this watch it was rugged, charging speed was amazing but battery life was giving me max. 2 days. Activity tracking was amazing.
then I switch to Samsung watch 4 44m and it is really a good watch in terms of software and speed. but again
-
battery life was only 1.5 days to 2 days max
-
charging speed is the same as the galaxy watch
In conclusion, I really need Suunto 7 watch with WearOS 3.0, with fast charging speed, at least 3 days battery life, that can charge wirelessly with no pins. The answer is finally here: Samsung watches 5 PRO.
Yes, the bezel is a good feature but to be honest it always tracks dust and is not easy to clean. so I am ok that that is gone. I used Samsung Watch 4 with no bezels and I didn't really miss it.
to me without having the watch yet but based on paper Samsung watch 5 pro is supposed to offer the things that I mainly hated about my other smartwatches:
-
3+ days plus
-
rugged and well built
-
fast charging
-
enough storage for offline music
-
enough ram and CPU I used a Samsung watch 4 and its really good
-
finally charger with USB-C
the cherry on top I got $100 CAD for registering for the unpack event, got 10% off for EPP and sold my Samsung watch 4 for $150.00 which I originally purchased for $200. finally, the cost including taxes is $456.51 + a free wireless charger.
I was debating between grey and black but I just felt that black with this style looks sleeker. what color did you pick?
