Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 to 5 Pro Upgrade Update Unboxing

This is a bit of a multipurpose video Review. I did do an earlier mini review where I talk about switching from my TicWatch Pro 3 to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 but it was super early on and I had not really figured out if the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 was going to be the right fit for me or not. As it turns out it is a great fit and the improvements Samsung has made with their Galaxy line of Watches and their Samsung Health Fitness App has all been very positive.

In this Video I talk about some of the reasons why I stuck with my Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and why I am now upgrading to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. I also do a bit of an unboxing of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and talk a bit about the differences between the 4 and 5 Pro and why these differences are important to me.

I do plan on making a follow review of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro after using it for a couple of weeks, so far I can tell you the experience on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is much like my experience on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 which is a good thing! And I am happy to say I can see some slight improvements but want to use it for a little bit longer to figure out what is the same, better or worse.

Which Wear OS Watch is Better for Me - Samsung Galaxy 4 or TicWatch Pro 3 GPS

This is far from a review, more of an update on my plans to test out the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 to see if perhaps this is the best solution for my needs?

I just recently switched from my Garmin Fenix 5X to a TicWatch Pro GPS. Now the Garmin Fenix 5X was a fantastic fitness Watch but lacked in the SmartWatch category. On the other hand the TicWatch Pro 3 GPS is a really great OS Wear SmartWatch and the Fitness integration is there but is cumbersome and not as refined as what you get on a dedicated Fitness Watch like what Garmin offers.

So here we are with the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 running a new version of Wear OS 3. I have used Samsung Galaxy Watches in the past and liked them a lot even the Samsung App which runs on your SmartPhone and watch is a very full featured App. So I am hoping maybe this solution will get me not only an awesome SmartWatch experience but also solid Fitness tracking capabilities.

Right now I am in the testing stage so the jury is not out yet but so far things are look positive overall with a few hiccups that may or may not be an issue! Stay posted for my more in depth review of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and if it is up to the task at least for my requirements...
