"Galaxy Watch4" with modern mini-design
"Galaxy Watch4Classic" is equipped with a rotating bezel with high quality and timeless design.
There are two kinds. This is Galaxy Watch4.
The color variety is very rich, so it is better to choose the color you like.
In addition, the main specifications of this website survey are as follows.
From the phone's notification reception, motion and sleep tracking functions, equipped with GPS, smartwatch can do most of … This is a very versatile model.
In addition, there are several functions of "although there are already available states in terms of hardware, but the status quo is not corresponding in Japan" (settlement using NFC, etc.), which will be described in detail with the comments below.
First of all, the Kaifeng report!
The packaging is like this. Judging from the outer box, it looks very advanced.
Then I'll go to Kaifeng.
This time the choice is a silver 40 mm model.
The silicon belt has an advanced sense of matte texture and a delicate feel. It is also very flexible and easy to wear on the arm.
In addition, the metal part is aluminum. There is an advanced feeling similar to the silver color of MacBook.
By the way, the metal part of Galaxy Watch4Classic is stainless steel.
There are aluminum and stainless steel models, as well as two dimensions to unfold (40 mm and 44 mm in the case of "Galaxy Watch4"), which is very similar to Apple Watch.
It comes with a charger and instructions. Of course, the instructions correspond to Japanese.
The charger is magnetic, and the charging mode and shape here are very similar to those of Apple Watch.
Start pairing. Please note that you cannot pair with iPhone!
And then paired.
For Android smartphones, you can install an application called "Galaxy Wearable" and follow the instructions for pairing.
In addition, to view detailed data such as exercise and sleep, you need to download an application called "S Health".
By the way, the corresponding smartphones are limited to models above Android 6.0and RAM 1.5GB or above, and do not support iPhone. Please note!
After pairing, you can also view the simple operation of the two side keys and the touch screen on the watch display or on the mobile app.
If you check it first, you won't get lost because of the operation.
Put it on!
The large screen display is also highly visible in the sun, and the default facade is also very handsome.
In addition, window dressing is not only a popular thing mentioned above, but also plural types of items such as calendars and weather shown below.
Because the display project can be customized according to your preferences, frequently used functions and projects can be invoked with one click.
This is basically the same as the "finish" function of Apple Watch, which makes you feel a strong sense of Apple Watch.
In addition, the display is displayed when the worn arm is facing the side of the face.
Among bargain models, "look at your watch but you can't draw a picture!" "it's nothing special.
In addition, the monitor can also display frequently, in this case up to 40 hours (longer than Apple Watch! ) the battery life is getting shorter.
People who do not want to feel pressure on charging are recommended to use it not often, even if not often, they will not feel particularly stressed.
Health-related functions are rich and colorful in short!
From here, convey to you the mixed feeling of actually wearing and trying to use a variety of functions.
First of all, when you wear it to work, you will regularly inform you of the reminder to move your body.
Apple Watch also said: "this is the time for the stands!" Such a reminder is achievable, but in the case of this model, the focus on "exactly how to move the body" will also be displayed as an image.
It gives people a feeling of "move your body like this".
In addition, the data of activities such as the number of steps are displayed in a ring like Apple Watch.
You can also view more data on the application.
Sleep data are also very detailed!
And sleep data and other records are also very detailed.
The screen displayed is a bit like Fitbit.
In addition, the same period also wore Apple Watch, through the sleep measurement application "AutoSleep" to obtain sleep data, but not much different from the Galaxy Watch4 data, both have the sense of high-precision sleep measurement.
Even know the rate of body fat! Body composition meter function
A function that can hardly be seen in other smartwatches, including the Apple Watch, is the body composition meter function.
The body fat rate and the weight of skeletal muscle, even the amount of water in the body, is an amazing function.
The measuring method only needs to touch the middle finger and ring finger to wait for more than ten seconds.
There is no particular measurement problem, the numerical value is simply displayed.
In addition, when the measured values were compared with those of Tanita's body composition meter, the body fat rate was slightly higher.
Because it only takes a few seconds to measure the fingers, there is still room for precision.
However, people without a body composition meter can grasp the approximate standard of the value and continue to record it, which is helpful to lose weight and can be said to be a very convenient function.
Sports function is also more convenient than Apple Watch!
There are also several very useful aspects of exercise-related functions.
First of all, if you walk outside for about 10 minutes, you can automatically detect walking.
Then "do you want to record the details of the walk as exercise?" "give me some advice."
Apple Watch has a similar feature, but there are many cases in which Apple Watch cannot receive notifications.
At this point, Galaxy Watch4 found it convenient to be notified every time.
Then on the way of walking and cycling, stop at traffic lights and other places, and the measurement of motion is automatically suspended.
The measuring time will also be temporarily stopped.
These features are often installed in running applications, but Apple Watch's pure working applications are not installed.
I think this is also a little better than Apple Watch.
Data such as cycling and running are also very detailed!
I also recorded data such as cycling and running, but the data were very detailed.
The measurement accuracy of GPS also gives people a very high impression.
The above is to display the running data in the application.
The following is the data when riding a bike.
You will be notified for every kilometer you run, and it is also convenient for functions such as notification and sound to convey rhythm through the screen (which can also be turned off).
According to the use of different functions can also be further expanded!
The "Wear OS Powered by three amsung" model, co-developed with Google, can download a variety of applications from the Google Play store.
Runners use "Strava", mountain climbers use "Yamariko", and people who want to use note-taking at work use Google keep. Download your favorite application according to your purpose, and the usability of this smartwatch will be further improved.
In addition, it is equipped with a microphone and loudspeaker to enter text by voice or to keep the recording intact as notes.
In addition, for NFC used for electronic money settlement and so on, although it is corresponding in specification, it can not be used in Japan.
In addition, voice assistants such as Google Assistant are not available at present.
In this respect, due to the update of the software, the possibility that it can be used in the future is also very high. While Android smartphone users are looking forward to carrying such a feature, it is also possible to buy it as soon as possible.
