    Brilliant review - I opted for the grey 5 pro as it looks a bit more classy to me - I have all of the other prev models and I don’t miss the rotating bezel and the batt life alone sold me - great watch

    Watch 5 Pro is going for $160 on eBay by certified refurbishers🧐 i think its time to upgrade from the og 46mm classic watch ive had for 3-4 years🤷

    • @TechItEasyCollective
      @TechItEasyCollective  Před 6 měsíci +2

      Didn't see this! $160 is a steal! Samsung even compare the galaxy watch 5 pro to the galaxy watch 6 and 6 classic in their website.. And the watch 5 pro beats them both 😅😂 Only thing I miss is the bezel!

      ​​​@@TechItEasyCollectiveexcept the exercise routines on the 5 Pro require the use of the Samsung Health app on the phone to set them up, whereas the Galaxy 6 has the setup built into the watch menu which is good especially if you have another brand of Android phone.

      And did you bought watch 5 pro? I am also using OG 46mm but battery is slowly dying after more than 2,5years it lasts for 1,5 day with calling + 10-20 messages send per day to like 3day with light usage. And I don't know what to buy, wait for OnePlus watch 2, ticwatch pro 5, watch 5 pro, watch 6 44mm or get something like Amazfit balance or Huawei GT4, I would like to get this 2days with moderate usage or 2,5-3 days with light minimum.

    Nice comparison/review. I sort of killed my GW5 and was thinking about replacing it with a GW5 Pro. Watching this video was a great way to decide what to do. The GW6 series don't seem that interesting with their tiny batteries. Rotating bezels isn't something I appreciate. Price/feature-wise atm the GW5 Pro is the best option. Thanks for the video!

    • @TechItEasyCollective
      @TechItEasyCollective  Před 2 měsíci +1

    Hi, im looking into upgrading from my watch 4 and for the same price i found the watch 5 pro LTE and the watch 6 44mm gps. I dont know which one to get. The 6 gets better specs (like display,cpu, ram) and one more year of updates, but the watch 5 is more rugged, better looking and better battery. I dont know which one to pick. I dont usually train or run so. I dont know if the watch 5 speed is going to be the same as my watch 4 but i hope the watch 6 battery is better than the 4. Pls help

      Not sure what your budget is but I've been using the fold 3/ fold 4 over the past 3 years which I've loved, I'd also reccomend the s24 ultra for camera, performance and just about everything- if you're on a lower budget I'd reccomend you take a look at my review of the Honor 70 - fantastic camera specs and performance for the price 👌

      So you need the Samsung health monitor app, currently it's only available on Samsung devices - I'd like to think this could change as the wording on their website indicates they're working on bringing it to other devices, but obviously take that with a pinch of salt!
