Samsung now lets you switch to your paired phone without resetting the Smartwatch
Samsung’s version of the Wear OS 4, dubbed “One UI 5 Watch,” packs in features that focus on convenience and wellbeing. Users get easy controls for connected Galaxy Buds and a useful widget to monitor battery levels across multiple devices. It’s a one-stop-shop for connected living, making device management as straightforward as it gets.
But what sets Samsung apart is the ability to switch your paired phone without resetting the smartwatch. That’s right: no more tedious resetting when you swap out your smartphone. Your settings and data stay right where they are, making it a seamless transition. This feature alone could tip the scales in favor of Samsung for those who are often juggling between different devices.
Meanwhile, Pixel Watch owners are left playing the waiting game. Though rumors of a beta program for the Pixel Watch have circulated, nothing concrete has come out yet. By the time the Pixel Watch receives the Wear OS 4 update, Samsung Galaxy watches will have already reaped the benefits for over four months.
In a space where software updates are as crucial as the hardware, Samsung’s quick adoption of the Wear OS 4 update gives it a notable edge. It not only provides an enhanced user experience but also sends a message: Samsung is more agile at delivering what consumers want, even if the software originates from Google. So, while Google is still tuning up for the race, it appears Samsung has already taken a victory lap.
