[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Any new Smart Watch's out there?

[Stan Rose]

I've been using my Galaxy Watch 4 all week to measure my blood O2 level and
report that to my doctor (since I caught Covid Sunday).

It's a little sensitive to where it is located on my arm. I find I have to
measure about 4 inches above my wrist but then it works fine. I can tell
it's actually measuring because if I hold my breath I get a lower reading
than if I hyperventilate.
