In this review we are going to systematically and scientifically test the ins and outs of the Galaxy Watch 6. The focus will be on the health and sports tracking capabilities of this new release from Samsung, based on more than two weeks of testing, which did result in a few surprises. We will test the heart rate tracking accuracy, sleep stage tracking performance, GPS tracking consistency and low oxygen saturation detection. As always, I do not want to waste your time, so there are timestamps in the description below, so you can easily navigate to those things that matter to you. Let’s get started.
Hello everyone! For those of you that are new to the channel, my name is Rob, and I am a postdoctoral scientist specializing in biological data analysis. This will be my first in-depth review of the Galaxy Watch 6, and compared to my initial review a few weeks ago, there were a few surprises now that I have about 4 times more data to work with. As always, I am not going to bother listing the detailed specs of this watch, since you can find those on Samsung's website. The most important things to know are: the screen is a bit bigger, the processor is a bit newer, it now uses Bluetooth 5.3 instead of Bluetooth 5.2 and the RAM has increased slightly, otherwise the Watch 6 is largely similar to the Watch 5. So instead of going through the specs, we are going to be purely focussing on independent testing of the performance of this watch, since Samsung did promise improved health tracking. As always, let’s start off by looking at the heart rate tracking performance of the Galaxy Watch 6 classic, which I tested during a total of 9 indoor cycling workouts, 18 outdoor cycling workouts and 8 weight lifting sessions.
Alright, but what's the final verdict? Well, it's not that different from my impression of the Galaxy Watch 6 classic I reviewed a week ago. In terms of health and sports monitoring, the Galaxy Watch 6 seems to be an average performer overall. It manages to track my heart rate well enough under easy conditions, but not when the circumstances become a bit tougher. The oxygen saturation measurements were pretty good actually, and with GPS tracking was good enough, as long as you don’t care about any of the details. On the other hand, the sleep stage monitoring wasn’t impressive, very often recording way too much awake time and limited deep sleep.

Your efforts are really important in helping those of us that really want and use accurate data to help us improve our health.

@humanchannel9421 11 ай бұрын

I'm pretty sure I could manually write a sleep tracking algorithm roughly as accurate as the Huawei just by making educated guesses based on your heart rate patterns correlated to your wrist movement. You need these companies to be accountable for them to produce accurate products. There's no real incentive to do so because most consumers aren't aware or don't care. The big contenders like Fitbit, Oura, Whoop, Apple etc. are obviously employing some kind of machine learning algorithm at the very least.

Dude, you are saving my life right now. As a fellow fan of data, having access to coefficients of correlation for these watches is huge to me. I'm curious about your sample size in case things like manufacturing lot, wrist fit, etc also affect the performance of these while acknowledging that I personally wouldn't spend $1000+ to buy 3 of the same watch to test these things (nor would n=3 give much statistical power against the factors I mentioned). TLDR: You are who I want to be when I grow up.

@ismaelrivera1999 11 ай бұрын

I think that the inaccuracy of the heart sensor could be related with band size reduction. I have a Galaxy Watch 3 -45 mm with a sport band 22 mm and when I compare it with my Iwatch 7 it’s stays close to it. A 20 mm band on a 47 mm watch could move a lot depending on the sport activity.

@great.rajeev 2 ай бұрын

Yup there can be some inaccuracy due to watch band i.e. the sensor close to the hand for better readings.

@GadgetyMV 11 ай бұрын

@nuspeed19 I agree no reason to get the Watch 6 when you already have a GW4. A question remains, if Samsung doesn't drastically improve their accuracy, will consumers choose a different platform when it's time to get their next smartwatch? Based on the evidence in Rob's testing here, I believe that what really matters to Samsung is to capture market share, aiming for the large majority of "middle of the road " users in terms of health, offering "good enough" and a few unique features, and other than that, milk the segment without any aim to be a leader in terms of accuracy. The aim may be profitable growth as Samsung's overall profitability has plummeted. There's probably a push not to invest, but rather on tweaking profit upwards. If they grow as planned, and are able to still turn a nice profit, they potentially read the market right. In addition there are other features that make a whole package, and it is this overall feature envelope that they're betting on matters to consumers. It's been said that Samsung switched to the Wear platform because they wanted to be able to offer Kakao Talk social platform in their home market. So the health part of the equation may matter less to consumers and these other features, as part of the total package combined create the growth.

@FranciscoNogueira 11 ай бұрын

Love my GW 4 44mm. Just went to check my past cycling activities on samsung health. They seem pretty good in most cases with the exception of when I'm going really near 4+ floor buildings (which is somewhat to be expected, I guess). Again... I don't care so much for it's fitness accuracy as much as I do for everything else (notifications, weather, time, etc...). For under 200€ is everything I expected and some more.

@TheQuantifiedScientist Nice job! I hope you can help me with an interest question, and I believe there are not much solid information about it around tbe internet. There is any problem using fitness trackers/smartwatches/smartbands on the inner side of your wrist (palm side)? I mean, how bad is it (if bad at all) to the accuracy of the device? Do you have a word on this issue? Maybe you can consider doing a video testing it, would be great!

Here are the main differences between Bluetooth 5.3 vs 5.2: - Bluetooth 5.3 will offer faster switching between low-duty and high-duty cycles and is therefore more energy efficient than 5.2 - Removing redundant data will also reduce energy consumption. - Bluetooth 5.3 should also reduce interference, and boost signal quality.

Thanks Rob, I would expect the blood pressure test in the full scientific review as well. This is an important health metric as many people around the world suffer from high blood pressure. It is easy to test it on Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 against a reference device, like a traditional upper arm blood pressure monitor or like Aktiia band, a certified blood pressure band. You seem to have dropped step counting, you can just as well drop GPS accuracy test since you are not giving a quantified score which shows how well the GPS performs. PS : I also test my blood oxygen level with O2 Ring from Wellue in flights and never had results such as 68%. Thumb is recommended for that device.

Hey Rob, thank you for your wonderful videos they help me decide which watch to buy. All that aside though I came across an interesting situation. I have a polar h10 chest strap heart rate monitor. Per your recommendation and I love it. It works great. I was using it at the gym the other day, and I noticed that it seemed to be connecting to my new Galaxy 6 watch. There's only two ways that this would be possible, and I'd like to try to figure out how this is happening. Unfortunately calling tech support for Samsung products is like pulling teeth. Not good! So I was hoping maybe that you could help me understand what's going on here. It seems like my heart rate monitor is connecting to my watch even though I haven't paired it with Bluetooth. The only way I can figure this is happening is either the Bluetooth settings stored in my phone have been downloaded to my watch and the watch is using that to connect to my heart rate monitor automatically, or and I think more likely the watch is connecting through ANT+. The only problem with the second theory is that I can't find a single spec sheet that mentions ANT+ for the Samsung Galaxy 6 watch. And I tried calling tech support and they had no idea what I was talking about. I had to explain what a heart rate monitor was! Lol. All that to say, what's your theory on this particular situation?

@Raghavacharisampath 11 ай бұрын

Hello: That sounds interesting. To confirm it is indeed reading from H10, unbuckle the watch and set aside and see if it is still reading from H10. If it is, there could be 2 reasons. The Samsung health app on the phone can pair to H10 and if you open the watch app it should show the reading from the phone live. The 2nd option is Samsung Health has gone thru a major upgrade just in the last couple of days. Check latest sakitech video on this.

Hi Rob, I'd love to hear about Huawei Watch 4 Pro and GT 3 Pro. Last review was a year ago and after many updates I expect the performance to be different. Thanks a lot for your amazing work!

Yess I would really love to see a test for the Huawei watch 4

Will you review galaxy watch 7? I have fitbit charge 6 i wonder of i should upgrade to watch 7

@fnfn9229 10 күн бұрын

Which band did you use? I wknder if the inaccurate sensors was because of a thick band that distanced the sensor further away from your hand/wrist

Hola Rob. Buenos videos, ya he visto 4 y me ha encantado el contenido. Estaría genial si pudieras probar los nuevos relojes de Huawei :) Saludos desde Mexico.

Hey Rob, seeing as the Galaxy Watch is fairly popular and widely available, I was wondering if you'd consider a review based on updates to the watch since its launch to see if there have been any improvements to its performance?

Huawei watch D also please 🙏 It measures blood pressure too 🤯

@CeDubble 11 ай бұрын

What if the difference during the outdoor bike is coming from the sensor position difference from the wrist as opposed to being closer to the heart. Add into that the muscles in both different areas having an effect on the sensor.

Thank you so much for your work! 👍✌👏Your test is more than useful to us. ☝💪I recommend to you: when you test a brand newest invention, please test again the older model again beside of the newest. It better to see the actual situation. We can get better reference points. 1 measuring is not a measuring - I learnt this fact. Do not compare the newest model's test to a 1-2 year(s) old results. When we compare to the whole group OK, but not quite good when we check the brand opportunities. Many softwares have been changed until this period. That's my recommendation.

Thanks so much! I am actually retesting the GW5 as we speak, at the same time as testing the GW6!

Amazing to hear! I'm considering buying a cheaper GW5, and your Sleep Tracking EEG comparisons are the most useful information regarding their performance on the whole internet@@TheQuantifiedScientist Would so cool if GW5 could compete with at least the lower performing Apple watches. From what I've heard there was a slight downgrade in sensors between the GW5, and GW6, because Samsung was concerned about their sensor light disrupting sleep or something? So it's possible that with the latest updates GW5 is the better performer in this test

Great as always. Questions: - What model is your Oximeter? (Not the ring). - What do you do with all of these watches after testing them?

@TheQuantifiedScientist 11 ай бұрын

Thanks Hen! I'd actually have to look up the brand, and I am not at home, so I cannot check now. And, I just have a big bucket for all the watches, so I can retest them once a new version comes out 😅

@HenPapirman 11 ай бұрын

@@TheQuantifiedScientist Cheers for the reply. I've been looking for an Oximeter recently and suddenly I saw yours, so, if you don't forget, once you come back home, I'd appreciate if you took the time to check it and let me know. Have a good one.

With the SW6, the blood pressure measurement and sleep measurement were continuously incorrect. The blood pressure reading at the doctor was good and on the watch it was consistently on the high side. The sleep measurement is also incorrect because I sometimes have to be awake for an hour between sleeping, while I recorded my sleep with a camera and that was not the case. Furthermore, the footsteps register 1.20 meters per step, while I actually take 70 cm per step.

So, any plans on reviewing Garmin Venu 3 once it's released in September? I'm basically done waiting for Samsung to catch up. Either Garmin Venu 3, Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro (46mm is too big for sleeved shirts, through), or the entire Apple ecosystem. Anything else doesn't make sense, except Huawei Band 8 if you're on a budget. Currently using Vivomove sport, and I enjoy it very much.

Curious if you could cover "Vo2 max" accuracy on this watch and others?

@alejandroalvarezbenitez7037 11 ай бұрын

Great reviews. On the question about what to do with sleep data that you did more than a year ago, the best answer is with Huberman videos. Your Channel and Huberman's Channel are my favorites on KZfaq.

One excellent episode in Huberman is podcast #84, he also recommends a toolkit for sleep. And to check the improvement in a precise and cost effective way the best is with a tested smart watch thanks to you!!!

on 26:55 you have on higher position Galaxy watch 5 pro (highlighted in blue) and also same watch below samsung galaxy 4 so is this in blue galaxy watch 5 pro and those below galaxy wach 4 is galaxy watch 6 pro?? Confusing.

@justinendert 11 ай бұрын

my galaxy watch 6 classic performs horible. Sleep some night doent even track and sometimes only for 1 or 2 hours. i also wear an apple watch ultra and the apple watch does track it pretty well (sleeping hours). samsung stats that the watch should addept to me?? and have to learn the sleeping habits. but sleep is sleep and just not working seems like an hard ware or softeware problem.

I agree with the heart rate accuracy. In ordee to prevent and "reset" the heart rate from doubling, you have to turn the heart rate setting to manual, measure, and then turn on continuous mode again. Also, the heart rate sensor seems to make it seem as if your heart rate slowly falls down so it takes a moment for it go dip.

Thank you so much for this review. I am a gtr3pro amazfit owner but I am not pleased with it... I was thinking to buy gw6 44mm but now after I saw review I am thinking to buy gw5 pro. The only think I need to know is that if the galaxy watches measure steps even if your hands are occupied. Thank you in advance 😊
