OnePlus Watch 3 vs Samsung Galaxy Watch 7

“WearOS offers a lot as it really makes the watch into a tiny smartphone. But it has its costs to offer that. A simpler OS (as Tizen was) is really more suited for these relatively small devices with (compared to full smartphones) tiny tiny batteries - for obvious physics reasons with current battery tech. That is why the OnePlus watch 3/2 solution of offering dual boot is so smart an idea. Work with a more primitive but much leaner OS normally AND offer you the option to boot into WearOS when you need the fancy stuff. Or the other way round: Use with WearOS when frequent charging is not a problem, and boot into the leaner OS when you prefer prolonged stamina. IMHO **all** fancy smartwatches *ought* to have the option to dumb down so it was never more power-hungry than needed for the user's selected active features.”

“I recently got a galaxy watch 7 and I love it. I don't have Facebook so I couldn't tell you about that. Being able to go for a run without having a phone and still listen to music while having accurate GPS is amazing”
