Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 vs Apple Watch 6 vs Fitbit Sense Specs Compared – Will Wear OS finally be as good as Apple?

Yesterday, Samsung announced their latest Galaxy Watch4 Series, and it is likely the most significant smartwatch launch of the year, quite likely years. Samsung has now teamed up with Google.

Huawei Watch 3 gets turn by turn navigation with Petal Maps

The Huawei Watch 3 is one of the best smartwatches currently available today. The hardware is exceptional, and the battery life outperforms all current Wear OS watches. However, using Harmony OS and no access to Google, the range of apps for it has been limited, which was my main criticism during my review. Huawei has…

Suunto 7 Titanium Review – A great Wear OS watch but not sure if the titanium is worth the premium

The Suunto 7 launched back in 2020 and represent a significant shift in the company strategy, adopting Wear OS rather than their existing software, which has very limited functionality outside of fitness. Using Wear OS, Suunto has been able to catch up and surpass rivals Garmin in terms of smartwatch features. All this comes at…

Huawei Watch 3 Announced – HarmonyOS could beat Wear OS thanks to 3-day battery [5 on the Huawei Watch 3 Pro]

The Huawei Watch 2 was announced back in 2017 running Wear OS, but in the following years, they ditched Wear OS in favour of a less smart LiteOS. With LiteOS, you got what you were given, and you had to live with it. While that doesn’t sound appealing compared to Wear OS, with its apps,…

Wear OS might finally become good thanks to Samsung and Fitbit. Just need Qualcomm to pull their finger out.

Wear OS might finally become good thanks to Samsung and Fitbit. Just need Qualcomm to pull their finger out.

Wear OS has been a bit of a disappointment, it has not received the love it deserves from Google, and Qualcomm have put no effort into advancing the SoCs at the same rate as phones. While I don’t hate Wear OS watches, my experience with them has always been lacklustre. The abysmal battery life is,…

Strava support might soon come to Huawei Watch GT2 devices & finally be a good Garmin alternative

While I generally love the Huawei watches, they have a major flaw. For watches that are so focussed on health and fitness (the app is even called Huawei Health) there is a serious issue with the lack of integration with major fitness apps. Specifically, Strava. When I moan about it to other tech bloggers, I…
