What you need to know about the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

The new Galaxy Watch 4 range gives you “more smartwatch choices than ever before” according to Andy Boxall in our Galaxy Watch 4 hands-on review. Our resident smartwatch expert also says a lot is going on under the surface, including many “thoughtful alterations” for the design. In other words, it’s a more accessible, and well-improved smartwatch than its previous iterations.

It ditches the Samsung Tizen OS for Android’s Wear OS, which actually feels very similar in design, yet includes access to so many more apps. The physical design is slimmer and more accommodating, especially to smaller wrists. What’s more, it’s one of the first true smartwatches to support body composition analysis, providing a deep dive into your health and fitness — alongside other important stats. You also get sleep tracking, general fitness and activity tracking, mobile pay — thanks to Google Pay — mobile notifications, and much more. It’s 5ATM or IP68 resistant, with a mil-spec rating of 810G, so it’s tough and can take quite the beating. It also comes in a wide variety of colors and styles, including the Classic version.

This is the definitive Samsung smartwatch, and it’s a worthy competitor to the Apple Watch, even more so than previous models.

Why you should buy the Apple Watch Series 10
As our Apple Watch Series 10 review explains, “the Apple Watch Series 10 is another strong entry in the Apple Watch family, and a (mostly) easy recommendation”. It has a new, thinner design than previous Apple Watches, along with a subtle but welcome screen upgrade. It also has a new speaker and improved charging speed, so it’s a good upgrade for existing Apple Watch owners.
