Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic

When we reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, we called it “Samsung’s best smartwatch yet.” Since then, we’ve seen the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 come along, but the 6 it still holds its own. Take a look at our comparison between the standard Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 and the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and you’ll note the differences are more incremental, so it makes sense to go with the cheaper option.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic looks gorgeous, particularly its rotating bezel. Besides those delightful looks, it also has great fitness features. That includes showing off key insights like distance and calories burned, but it also provides personalized HR zones with the watch scanning your health data to provide what you need to know.

It’s smart enough to provide readings on your body fat, skeletal muscle, body water, Body Mass Index, and more, so you get truly advanced insight into how well your body is doing. There’s also always-on heart monitoring even when in conjunction with the advanced sleep coaching. It’s exactly what you would expect from one of the best smartwatches — no key features are missed here. It’s all wrapped up in a gorgeous shell, and it’s perfect for everyday use as well as aiding you on your exercise goals.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic normally costs $400 but right now, it’s down to $280 at Best Buy. That’s a great price for such a well-reviewed watch. It may be slightly older tech, but it’s certainly not outdated. Check it out now before the deal ends.

Bloomberg reports that preorders open July 16, with shipping scheduled to begin in October. The ring can collect readings during the day and overnight, then display the results through an iOS or Android app.

HTC’s VIVE Eagle smart glasses could finally be heading to the US. Apparently, Amazon got the memo before HTC was ready to share it.

Notebookcheck spotted six versions available for preorder at $499, each carrying a September 1 release date. Amazon has since pulled the pages, so new orders are closed and anyone who already placed one is left wondering whether it still counts.

Don’t expect smartwatches and fitness bands with replaceable batteries anytime soon
Turns out even the EU thinks your smartwatch is too small for a battery swap.
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

The EU has a habit of pushing tech companies to adopt meaningful changes in their product. It's the reason your iPhone finally has a USB-C port, and it's also why companies now have to offer spare parts and repair support for electronics for several years after launch.
