Hi. The gold-standard for body composition measurement is a DEXA scan which can be done in a lab. I had a look at this myself when reviewing it - and the Samsung Health App shows a research study showing around 98% correlation between the Galaxy Watch's BIA sensors with a DEXA scan - which is actually pretty good! Here's a link to one of the articles online: news.samsung.com/my/study-shows-accuracy-and-precision-of-galaxy-watchs-bioelectric-impedance-analysis-sensor From my experience, the measurements have been fairly consistent over the last few weeks and the readings are not jumping around the place which is a good indication of accuracy (I generally keep my muscle mass and fats at the same level with consistent diet and exercise routine so the watch reflecting that consistency is good to see). Hope that helps 😀

Hi, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the feedback 🙌🏼 Pixel 3XL review and comparisons coming soon 😀

Hi! ECG on this is quite simple - you just pick the ECG app on the watch and touch the top-right button with 1 finger till the reading is done. You're in luck though, because I'm making a video covering ECG, Body-composition (BIA sensor), Blood-pressure monitoring and much more for the new Galaxy wearables 😀

Hi! Looks like someone in the Fitbit forums also had a mismatch (though they had higher steps on their Fitbit than on the app). Check out the steps they followed to resolve it here: community.fitbit.com/t5/Charge-6/Charge-6-the-steps-shown-on-my-watch-is-higher-than-the-steps-on-the-app/td-p/5578355 Hope that helps 😀

Nice one! What was the main reason for you to get the Galaxy Watch Ultra?

@@thewearableist activity tracking, day use and at work. I still use my watch 7 44mm to tracking my sleep.

That's cool 🙌🏼

Hi! I've seen you can add custom goals and reminders for things like HR, pace, etc. for outdoor running. I don't remember seeing the ability to customise the data screens. See feature number 6 in this video: czcams.com/video/h0VYs70wkWc/video.html

Hi! Unfortunately not in the watch S3. Checkout the new Galaxy Watch Ultra which supports triathlons in a full-blown smartwatch: czcams.com/video/a_jz04BWIrk/video.html Hope that helps 😀

@@thewearableist huge thanks! But I'm confused, just ask an online seller this and he answered that it does have triathlon

Hi. Does it really? I don't recall seeing it when I was using it! I tried looking online and in various sub-reddits to confirm but no luck! Manufacturers normally make a big deal out of multi-sport profiles like triathlons and duathlons as its normally found in more expensive sports watches and can't see anything in Xioami's material around this unfortunately. If the seller can show you proof (photo of the Triathlon mode?) then that's great! Let us know in the comments if you get that confirmation so it helps others too Multi-sport watch for £110 would be a bargain, compared to a £599 Galaxy Watch Ultra! I'd be a bit hesitant with it's durability though 🤔

@@thewearableist weirdly xiaomi make no publicity of that feature. But some S3 users in Reddit and Amazon replied me saying that it in fact does have triathlon mode! (With photos to prove)

Hi! Thanks for confirming that here - having multi-sport profiles like Triathlon in the Watch S3 is absolutely a bargain given Samsung made a special "Ultra" watch costing $650 / £599 with multi-sport profiles! Can't believe how Xiaomi have managed to do that at a low price, its great! I'll probably post a video about it soon so others know about it - many thanks 🙌🏼

I bought a gw 7 44mm and I'm satisfied, I had a gw 5 pro and a garmin venu 2 and these are the best :)

@cybrexis hi! I'm a long-term Garmin Venu 2 user as well 🙌🏼

Hello! UK-based 😊

Hopefully, getting there slowly 🐌

Hi, thanks for the feedback!

Hi! Glad it was helpful 😀

Hi! It depends on what banks in your country have signed up to Mi Pay (it's a very restricted list as far as I have seen). And only Mastercards work with Mi Pay. To see the list of supported banks: 1. Download the Mi Fitness, Xiaomi Wear, or Xiaomi Wear Lite app​ 2. Activate your Mi account by choosing your country.​ 3. Activate your Mi Smart Band via your Mi account. ​ 4. In the tab “Devices”, choose ”Fitness bracelet Mi Smart Band 6 NFC” ​5. Open tab “Bank card” and enter your Mastercard card data​ 6. Confirm the authorisation via SMS Hope it helps 😀

Hi, see 9:10 if you complete a run on the Watch S3, you can see the route you took, distance, elevation, pace, cadence, etc., in the Mi Fitness App. For a proper running watch with offline routes, for running, AMOLED display, great battery life, checkout the Garmin Foreunner 165: czcams.com/video/Q4gZU6mfiiA/video.html On the Garmin Foreunner 165, you can create courses, set how much time, pace, etc you want to target and the watch will guide you through the mapped run! You can also analyse runs via Strava. Hope it helps 😀

@@thewearableist This is the feature I am missing: I have got the map on Mi Fitness showing the track from todays run, then I would like to be able to click on the track to check my heart rate, the distance and time and elevation at the spot on the track I have clicked on, for example worst hill of my workout 🙂

@@thewearableist Next project: watched your video on connecting watch/Mi Fitness with Strava. Will try that and see what it looks like.

Got a couple of old heart rate monitor belts from Garmin/Suunto/Polar, if I can find them, currently buried somewhere down in the dungeon, maybe it is possible to connect to Strava to compare the results with data from the Xiaomi watch heart rate count.

Hi! Glad it was helpful 🙂

That's great 🙂

I have the option to choose between both for around a 100 dollar price difference. Should I pick the 7 or stay with the 6?

@hypno0784 hi! One of the viewers in this comments section had a Galaxy Watch 6 and said they're happy with the Watch 7 with 10 hrs extra battery. Also, Watch 7 has the latest Wear OS 5 - so it's up to you if you feel the latest software and tiny battery improvement is worth the extra $100. Durability specs are largely similar for both. If it were me, the battery life would not be the only reason to spend $100 extra as the battery on Watch 7 is not game-changing over Watch 6. Hope it helps 😀

@@thewearableist well basically all non-hardware based software features will roll down to the Watch 6 with the major update. So it kinda boils down to the hardware of the watch. I have the watch 4 and I am highly annoyed with how bad it stutters and decides to give up on me randomly. And the accuracy is a hit or miss. So do the new processor and health sensor fix this?

hardware-wise the Watch 7 is similar to the Watch 6 except for 1 thing. Both have sapphire crystal glass on screen, dual band GPS antenna, IP68 water and dust resistance, 5 ATM water resistance (around 50 m water depth). The main difference (from hardware point of view) is the 3 nm process in the Watch 7 which is an upgrade over the 5 nm processor in the Watch 6 - so a bit smoother to whizz around the UI, quicker to open apps and slightly better in managing battery drain - but the 5 nm processor on the Watch 6 is still good IMO. The optical HR sensor is good on the Watch 7 - I haven't tested the Watch 6 so can't comment on it but the upgrade would not have been gigantic given 1 year difference. If you are want the best processor then Watch 7 is the one to go for but keep in mind the similarities I mentioned in hardware - still probably not worth the $100 price difference. Hope that helps 😉

Hi! Glad you found it helpful 🙂

Hi! Please see if the Zepp App is syncing with the watch. If the sync works ok, try going into the: Zepp App Click on Bip 5 in top left corner Health monitoring Turn on Active HR Monitoring option There are other sleep settings there too which should be turned on. I'd recommend checking this manual as well (has a lot of the sleep settings): www.manuals.co.uk/amazfit/bip-5/manual?p=21 Hope it helps 😀

Hi! Glad you found it helpful 🙂

Hi! Yes, weight training is synced to Strava as well.

Hi! You read my mind 😀

Hi! Can't wait to run that comparison 😀

Hi! It looks like this is an iOS limitation where you can receive messages on the watch but unable to do the quick reply from the watch (I didnt realise this limiation until someone asked the question and I went into a sub-reddit to investigate). Check out this answer from Amazfit support: www.bestbuy.com/site/questions/amazfit-bip-5-smartwatch-49mm-polycarbonate-plastic-cream/6561746/question/3bb91479-1a4c-350e-887d-2b4414a5e77f

Here are the key settings you can adjust: Warm-Up Time: Set the duration for your warm-up phase before starting the intervals. High-Intensity Interval Duration: Specify the length of time for each high-intensity interval. Low-Intensity Interval Duration: Set the duration for the recovery or low-intensity intervals. Number of Intervals: Choose how many intervals you want to complete in your workout. Cool-Down Time: Set the duration for the cool-down phase after completing the intervals. Hope this helps 🙂

The Galaxy Watch Ultra review is coming out very soon 🙂

Hi! I'll be posting a video soon showing 7 key features of teh Galaxy Watch 7 - activities and sports will be a part of that so stay tuned for the exercises part 😀

@@thewearableist sure thank you so much.

Hi! In this video you might have also seen the Galaxy Watch Ultra (orange band) and the Polar Grit X2 Pro (blank chunky watch) which I used for the satellite location tracking comparison against the Galaxy Watch 7. Battery is probably the only thing stopping me from recommending this watch, other than that it's almost the perfect smartwatch. Hope it helps 😀

@thewearableist Ok, we will wait for an ultra review. And few upadtes of galaxy watch 7 whether it helps the battery life

Hi, thanks for watching!

Hi! I don't have a direct comparison but here's my full in-depth review of the Galaxy Watch 7: czcams.com/video/B-q0oU4R3AY/video.html Main differences between the two are battery life, Wear OS vs Zepp OS, build quality, durability, satellite navigation technology and display tech. Hope the above link helps 😀

Hi, glad the video helped 😀

Me is also a watch enthusiast- and I am looking for a easy but good tracking tool, for my CrossFit and powerhouse session. It’s sad that you can’t connect chest sensors etc… but it’s still better then wearing my Fenix ….

Hi! Yeah agreed a Fenix might be a bit bulky for CrossFit, still useable though. Vivosmart 5 much lighter and less obtrusive overall.

Hi, thanks for watching, the feedback and the sub 🙌🏼 I'm glad the video helped 😀

Hi! I covered this setting in the following video (feature number 6): czcams.com/video/h0VYs70wkWc/video.html Hope it helps 😀

@@thewearableist Thx! Video helped a lot. To start with I really like the layout as list feature, definitely more my style than the original cluster view. And I will for sure be spending time exploring the Workout menu. Interesting watch this 🙂

Hi! Glad the video helped 🙂

Hi! Haha yes I don't like subscriptions and paywalls too 😅

Ah that's a shame! It make sense for them to integrate the scale to Mi Fitness instead, not sure why they decided to integrate it in Xiaomi Home 🤔

That's great to hear 😀

Hi! I haven't tested Mibro and Hylou out yet. I'm planning on making a video on budget wearables so these will definitely be on my list. Thanks for the info 🙌🏼

Hi! You can transfer music downloaded on your phone straight to the Watch S3 after which you can listen to it straight from the watch. There are, however, no Spotify/Deezer/Prime Music apps on this watch so you can only transfer music you've downloaded manually on your phone to the watch. Hope this helps 🙂

@@thewearableist it helps i lot thanks can i tell me how many song i can download in avrage

Hi! I didn't think the Charge 6 had a speaker and microphone. It only showed incoming call notifications... Check this forum: community.fitbit.com/t5/Charge-6/microphone-and-speaker-on-charge-6/td-p/5500531

Hi! There is no specific option to turn the wrist wake gesture off. There is a workaround though: setting the watch to DND will disable the wrist wake gesture and you can then only use the buttons to wake it (tapping the screen in DND mode doesn't activate it). Hope this helps 🙂

Hi! Haha yeah I get that feeling too sometimes 😅

Hi!. It looks like Strava have posted an update on issues with authorisation today here: communityhub.strava.com/t5/devices-and-connections/resolved-3rd-party-apps-mi-fitness-zepp-fitbit-igsport-xoss-etc/td-p/38225 I just disconnected and reconnected Strava from Mi Fitness on my phone and didn't see authorisation issues. Strava have said: "however we are aware that some of our Partners are having some residual issues using the Strava API - this is the cause of the problems you are seeing authorizing the connection to Strava. If you are still experiencing the error, we recommend reaching out directly to the Partner in question for further assistance. As a workaround in the meantime, If you can export those files in GPX, TCX, or FIT format you should be able to manually upload them to Strava by file from our upload page." Fingers crossed it is resolved soon 🤞🏻
