Samsung Galaxy Watch4

Sleeper12 · 31-08-2021 09:19AM

Got mine yesterday morning. ECG taken 18 times shows Atrial fibrillation every time for me. Put the watch on my wife last night & did 4 ECGs on her. Hers perfectly normal so we know it's not a glitch in the watch. This watch could word out one of the best investments of my life!

Watch itself is beautiful. Early days yet but battry life might not be as good as watch 3 but there is so much more going on under the hood

Question: I traded in my watch 3 with Samsung. I didn't get return packing or details with my delivery. Does anyone know if this is normal?

Re: the trade in.

It's usually through the post 3-4 days after you get your watch delivered. Quite quick with the phone tradeins this time around, so I'd be expecting the watch return package today or tomorrow after getting the watch last week.

Just bung it in a box, original is preferable, probably won't do you for not returning the charger but I'd pack it in if handy. Certainly the original leather straps are required though.....remember hearing of a few people who had followups from Samsung on previous tradeins.

Same

Think it's only a electronic card that you have to redeem online

Then Add it to Google pay etc

A nice new Munster Jersey for me, thanks Samsung

Anyone get Spotify to play through the watch speaker ?

Having trouble the app when I'm trying to connect it to a Bluetooth speaker and for some reason it ended up playing on my watch speaker

yabadabado · 02-09-2021 10:37PM

The music symbol appeared on my phone earlier today and I can't see a way to clear it.

When I tap the symbol I'm asked to resume playback but I've nothing to resume.

Any ideas how to clear?

Just bought the watch as had a voucher

Where do you go to get this claim ?

Ignore just found it now to mess around with the watch

griffdaddy · 03-09-2021 03:56PM

Think I'll pull the trigger on this this weekend. Do the LTE models have a sim card slot or is it just esim?

Esim only AFAIK. I think Vodafone are the only Irish network provider with esim

Does anybody know if this is the new watch that people with diabetes can check their blood sugar levels with?

I don't think so. ECG, Blood oxygen, Heart rate & Blood pressure is all I see

Irish Gunner · 03-09-2021 06:13PM

Messing around with watch But not getting notifications of emails or Whatsapp

Notifications on using OP7

What settings are required to get notifications

Cheers seems to be working now

Still playing around with it... it's telling me I need more exercise

Reading XDA forum regarding debloating but not going to try anything yet

Using OP7 Pro so might try load mod of Samsung health

Now just need someone to call me test the sound quality or play some Spotify

One more thing can it show photo attached to Whatsapp messages as could not open one sent to me on watch

ggmat799 · 04-09-2021 09:05PM

Hey please help me here. The gift card is this a Mastercard which can be used to say pay like a credit card at any merchant or will it only allow us to pay for say apps etc at Google pay store?

Thanks

Trade in value for my Galaxy Watch 46mm is €45!

Is it worth the upgrade frome the Original Galaxy Watch 46mm to the Galaxy Watch 4 46mm Classic?

Sleeper12 · 07-09-2021 09:32AM

Have watch a week. From day one ECG on watch says I have Afib. Just back from doctors & he has confirmed it. This is something that left untreated for a few years can cause a stroke. The watch is worth the money for the health monitors alone.

Well there's a good argument for upgrades

MindBent · 07-09-2021 10:17AM

I bought my Watch 4 on Sunday, when I try to use ECG it says Samsung health monitor not available in you current location, bought in Cork, living in Cork. Any Ideas?

Balance is for GOOGLE PLAY and NOT Google PAY. So you cannot pay at merchants. Email from Samsung Rewards confirmed it.

Samsung.de is offering 100e Samsung Pay Balance making Classic come down to 263.

crank_1975 · 07-09-2021 11:21AM

Has anyone had anything from Samsung in relation to their trade in? I got an email a couple of weeks ago saying I would get a package in the post to do the return but still have old watch and no package?

Are you using a non Samsung phone? The link mentioned earlier in the thread works (mostly) for my One Plus phone ... https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117826273#Comment_117826273

I wonder is it possible to get that German offer in Ireland?

Irish Gunner · 07-09-2021 03:21PM

Ok using the watch pass few days and few questions. I am not using a Samsung phone (OP 7pro) and on android 11 and watch software up to date

Notifications are sporadic. I am not getting notified by noise or vibration on watch for some WhatsApp and gmails? I have them set up as allowed in notifications on wear app. I have 3 Gmail accounts set up but seem to only get notifications for one assigned to Samsung account?

Also, not fitness freak but does the watch auto detect say when you go for a walk/run? It seems to kick in when I am 5 minutes into the walk/run, well that’s when I get notified? Ok if sitting down to long at PC it prompts me to get moving......eh who do you think you are 🤨

Also have display set to Raise wrist to wake but this is also sporadic and sometimes I have to touch the screen for it to wake

Battery seems to be fine and have not tested voice calls on watch yet but not missed any calls yet while phone in pocket

Anyone has same issues and any way they sorted it other than turning it on and off

My idea was to say Google PLAY is not worth what Google Pay or Samsung Pay would have been.

Samsung Pay can be downloaded and used here too as well while travelling outside Ireland ( I assume SP is not here in Ireland yet).

I received email from SAMSUNG REWARDS team. I m not wrong. They are giving wrong information it seems.

I have sent them 2 emails and each time they used the same thing. I did share with them Mastercard terms and yet they said the same. See email below :-)

ggmat799 · 08-09-2021 10:30AM

IE - Dublin 12 Seller address. I had told them about ROI terms are different and also used the term Unbranded Master Card.

Use the online form on claim gift link and raise a query.

I had emailed IE team only. 2 different people have now responded. This is a case of misleading adverts unless support team does not know what they are talking about.
