Stan Rose —Have you compared your Galaxy watch’s
O2 result to what you measure, at the same time,
with a pulse oximeter? Same question for Apple
Watch wearers.

<p>I've drunk some of the Apple Kool-Aid
(though I recently switched to a Linux
laptop from Framework as I mentioned
recently). Anyway, I have an iphone, so
when Apple watches started having fall
detection, I used that as my excuse to
myself to spring for one (a series 4).
(The fall detection has "worked" a few
times, in that I took a few hard falls
and it started warning me that it was
going to call 911 before I stopped it,
because I was ok.)</p>
<p>I got the version with cellular. Yes,
it's $120/year, but it also means I get
some phone functionality even without my
phone. I have to say, most of the time I
have my phone with me when I'm out, but
occasionally I don't and it's been
handy. Not sure it was worth the money.
I hate to admit that one of the best
things for me about my Apple watch is
that I can use it to find my iphone. I
assume that would work without cellular
as long as the watch is connected to
wifi (or close enough to the phone to
use bluetooth).</p>
<p>BTW, I'm pretty sure all Apple watches
have both bluetooth and wifi. I'm
guessing the same is true for Android
watches.</p>
<p>The most amusing part of the sales
pitch was when he tried to upsell me the
stainless steel version over the
aluminum. When he told me the steel one
was "heirloom quality", I started
cracking up. Of course he couldn't even
promise me that Apple would support the
"heirloom quality" watch for a decade.
I'm pretty sure my grandchildren
wouldn't be wearing mine, even if it
were steel.</p>

<p>BTW, if you order a watch from
Samsung's website you can customize
the style and color of the band. If
