I’ve been wearing it again to find out if you should buy it or politely pass it by in favor of the Watch 6 Classic. Still so good to wear Andy…

Andy Boxall/Digital Trends The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro was an oddball product when it launched, and now that the excellent Galaxy Watch 6 Classic is here, it only emphasizes what a huge misstep the Watch 5 Pro actually was.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Andy Boxall/Digital Trends Smartwatches have been a helpful tool for people to track of their health. Now, Samsung’s Galaxy Watches will be adding an important, potentially lifesaving feature later this year.
