Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

A durable body but rough edges

Hands on: Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is bigger and pricier than its non-classic sibling, but it's the same smartwatch at heart.

Rotating bezel works well Plenty of health features

Pricier than sibling Doesn’t fit all wrists

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is a standard premium smartwatch, and it has both the perks and the drawbacks of such devices. It’s hardy and good-looking, with loads of useful features, and a rotating bezel that works especially well for navigating...

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

The Watch 4 series offers itself up in two distinct styles – including the more traditional Classic – while also serving as the debut platform for the new iteration of Wear OS

Wear OS works better than ever ; Tasteful, tactile design ; Feature-packed ; Great performance

Some Samsung phone-exclusive features ; Price premium for Classic styling ; Wear OS 3 with caveats

The best smartwatch on the market right now, hampered only by the fact that some of its latest and greatest features are exclusive to Samsung Galaxy users. You also pay a premium for that Classic styling.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review

A bite out of the Apple?

Good fitness tracking ; The best Wear OS watch to date ; Retains plenty of Samsung flavour

Short battery life in 42mm version ; Some interface quirks during exercise ; Compatibility restrictions for non-Samsung phones

A sideways step for Samsung watches but a big jump forward for Wear OS, the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is now the number one Apple Watch alternative

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review: This stellar smartwatch is now discounted for Amazon Prime Day

The Galaxy Watch 4 is Samsung's best smartwatch to date, but annoying restrictions mean it's less appealing than it should be

Impressive performance ; Access to more apps than before ; Attractively priced

Mediocre battery life ; No ECG unless you have a Samsung phone ; Doesn’t offer all Wear OS features

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review: A first-rate smartwatch

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic introduces new software and a stylish, mature design. We think it has what it takes to succeed the Galaxy Watch 3.

“The Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is a seriously capable smartwatch with comprehensive health-tracking features, slick One Watch UI software, and a mature, classy design that feels great on your wrist.”

Samsung Galaxy Watch4 Classic Review

Attractive classic watch design ; Rotating physical bezel for easy navigation ; Bright, sharp display ; Fast processor ; Body fat and composition measurements ; Tracks snoring ; More third-party apps than previous Samsung watches

Short battery life ; Third-party app selection still trails Apple's watchOS

The high-end Galaxy Watch4 Classic features a stainless steel design and a rotating bezel backed by a better software experience and more third-party apps than previous Samsung smartwatches, though you can get a similar experience for $100 less with...

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic Review: The Best Android Smartwatch?

The Galaxy Watch 4 series starts at Rs. 23,999

Snappy UI ; Accurate step and distance tracking ; SpO2 and body composition tracking ; Decent battery life

Only Bixby assistant ; Expensive ; Slow charging

The Galaxy Watch 4 models are the first products to launch as a result of the Samsung-Google partnership. The Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is easily one of the best Android wearables I have used but it does have shortcomings that you need to be aware of...
