It is not completely out of the question to familiarize yourself with the competitor's products and not live only in the bubble of one brand. The success they achieved Apple Watch, no one can match them. After all, it is also the best-selling watch in the world. But what is it like to put them on the hand for phone users with Androidem and the owner Galaxy Watch4?
Apple Watch Series 7 is currently the highest model of the American manufacturer, which, compared to the previous generation, has enlarged the case, the display, added dust resistance to the watch (it has been present for a long time compared to water resistance up to 50 m) and, of course, a few other little things have been added. Against them is usage Galaxy Watch4 Classic p Wear OS 3 developed by Samsung in collaboration with Google. How hard is it to completely switch to other platforms?
As Apple Watch they do not communicate with devices with Androidum, not at all Galaxy Watch4 do not communicate with iOS. Why this is so is not entirely known, when we already have reports that it is not the system used at all. It's clear with Apple. He sews hardware and software purely for his products, and just as he does not provide them to anyone else iOS ani watchOS, its devices are only connectable to each other.
So if we want to try Apple Watch, we have to pair them with is iPhonem. In our case, we used the services of the iPhone 13 Pro Max. As simple as it gets Galaxy Watch4 with a Samsung phone, it's just as intuitive and fast in between Apple Watch a iPhonem.
Getting to know the watch and the environment
There is no need to lie to yourself that it is Wear OS 3 who knows how original. Both Samsung and Google were clearly inspired by watchApple's OS, therefore there are many similar things, from the visuals to the functions. The most fundamental difference between the worlds of Apple and Samsung is actually the case. Galaxy Watch are circular Apple Watch square since 2015 of course. Which are prettier? Even after weeks of testing, I still stand by the fact that the watch should have a circular case, but it's a matter of opinion. Apple Watch with their design, they have proven that they can last through the years.
It is important to get used to that Apple Watch you control via the crown, Galaxy Watch4 a lot even through the bezel (either hardware or software). In Apple's case, it's nice that the crown is printable, so it saved one button. It is not used for selection, but for return. AT Galaxy Watch4 is an advantage that you can map the buttons according to your requirements. With Apple, it only works with the button under the crown, and only for favorite or recent applications.

What you do on Samsung by swiping your finger across the screen from above, you do on Apple Watch from below. So it's a bit of a trick, this is how you switch the entrance to the application view and the control center, so they will confuse you for a while. But you get used to it quickly. But I definitely miss the tiles. Instead of entering them, and the last events, namely by dragging to the right and left and Apple Watch you just change the set dials.
The dial makes an overall impression
If nothing else, you have to give credit to Apple for their watch face development efforts. His are absolutely gorgeous, playful, highly customizable, and any used one just looks great. When I look at now Galaxy Watch, so they are simply missing something. So not with regard to complications, but with regard to that playfulness and visual stylization. Here it would definitely like to add, although in Galaxy Watch4 you will also find a couple of nice ones, those in Apple Watch they surpass them in every respect. What about being able to download new ones is usually worth nothing.
Their personalization is also more intuitive, but the complications, on the other hand, are rather underdeveloped. You won't get the current heart rate on the watch face unless you have an activity running. To add steps to it, you need to use some third-party applications. Apple and his Apple Watch because they prioritize calories. And that is probably the biggest stumbling block. Everyone else prefers steps, whether it's Garmin, Xiaomi, or Samsung. The daily goal shows the number of steps that are u Apple Watch on the other track. Unfortunately.
Tracking, Measurement, Use
When you get past the point of measuring activities, it doesn't matter what kind of watch you're actually wearing. They all inform you about notifications, try to motivate you to be active, measure everything they can measure, you can even simply respond to given actions, etc. It's not even possible to say that one wears better and the other worse, although I personally prefer the style Galaxy Watch and their universal straps rather than Apple's proprietary solution, which clearly targets revenue from accessory sales, again it's more about preference. On Galaxy Watch you can put any 20 mm wide, on Apple Watch only those with special endings.

There are plenty of activities, so you can find yours here, and if not, define it yourself. The accuracy of the measurements is difficult to determine because I do not have any calibrated equipment that would compare the measured values with reality. There are deviations, whether in the number of steps, calories burned or other data, but heart rate is measured very similarly, i.e. with the same result.
The end is good, I'm glad to be back
I'm glad to have it on my hands again Galaxy Watch and I use a device with Androidem. Not because they are Apple Watch a iPhone bad facilities but habit is an iron shirt. This comparison was not meant to determine which device is better or worse, it was just to know how they differ from each other. In the case of smartwatch companies Apple and Samsung at least. When Androidua iOS that's for another article.

Both devices with current operating systems are extremely capable, functional and beneficial. Both work very similarly, they just look quite different - that is, at first glance, because they are more similar to the other than you might expect. Galaxy Watch4 s Wear OS 3 is thus a really viable alternative Apple Watch s watchOS 8 that no one needs to be ashamed of. It is not entirely appropriate to compare which ones are better. Both watches are designed for a different world. One for apple growers, the other for androidsure. And maybe that's a good thing.
