    yeah I got a watch 4 for free with my s22 ultra, I gave it a good shot and used it for a few months but went back to my garmin. I simply don’t need a lot of the “smart” features aside from notifications and fitness tracking, which garmin does better, and then there’s the battery… different worlds there

      Yeah, I had a few FitBits before this and they were great, the battery lasted like 4-5 days. The software on this has gotten better, I think it may last a full day now, but still, that’s pretty bad. Also, I get tons of spam texts on my watch which is just flat out annoying.
