00:00:00.231 --> 00:00:02.814
(upbeat music)

2
00:00:05.070 --> 00:00:08.960
- What has been bothering you
about the Galaxy Watch lately?

3
00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:09.793
- Okay.

4
00:00:09.793 --> 00:00:10.950
I am sorry to take over this conversation

5
00:00:10.950 --> 00:00:12.873
with my Android musings.

6
00:00:12.873 --> 00:00:16.520
I know that Apple people
just love hearing me talk

7
00:00:16.520 --> 00:00:19.840
about all the ways that
Android things let me down.

8
00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:21.792
But I was really, I really do love

9
00:00:21.792 --> 00:00:23.790
the Samsung Galaxy Watch four

10
00:00:23.790 --> 00:00:26.950
but since this update I have noticed

11
00:00:26.950 --> 00:00:31.030
the battery life is
just not doing too well.

12
00:00:31.030 --> 00:00:35.740
And apparently this is a common
issue of the watch as it is.

13
00:00:35.740 --> 00:00:38.800
So I actually installed the
Google assistant yesterday.

14
00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:39.740
I managed to get installed.

15
00:00:39.740 --> 00:00:43.690
The update was announced
Monday morning by Samsung.

16
00:00:43.690 --> 00:00:47.840
And it's kind of, I am gonna
put together a whole thing

17
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:50.310
for Gizmodo this week on
how to get it on your watch,

18
00:00:50.310 --> 00:00:51.570
if you haven't gotten it already.

19
00:00:51.570 --> 00:00:54.710
It's a little it's weirdly tricky

20
00:00:54.710 --> 00:00:55.940
and like not really intuitive

21
00:00:55.940 --> 00:00:58.283
as I expected a usual
software update to be.

22
00:00:59.450 --> 00:01:01.730
So yesterday the battery life
was really disappointing.

23
00:01:01.730 --> 00:01:04.700
I was at 70% like just a
few hours off the charger,

24
00:01:04.700 --> 00:01:07.856
even right now let's see I'm at 78%,

25
00:01:07.856 --> 00:01:09.860
three hours off the charger.

26
00:01:09.860 --> 00:01:11.867
It's actually not usually that bad.

27
00:01:11.867 --> 00:01:16.750
- Geez. I'm at 91%, three
hours off the charger.

28
00:01:16.750 --> 00:01:19.740
- See this that's not okay.

29
00:01:19.740 --> 00:01:21.890
And you were using it to
commute into work today.

30
00:01:21.890 --> 00:01:23.984
All I've done is commute down the stairs.

31
00:01:23.984 --> 00:01:25.630
(Michelle laughing)

32
00:01:25.630 --> 00:01:27.370
So it should not be this bad.

33
00:01:27.370 --> 00:01:28.370
I didn't use directions

34
00:01:28.370 --> 00:01:29.203
- I actually think it might be more

35
00:01:29.203 --> 00:01:31.260
than three hours off the charger.

36
00:01:31.260 --> 00:01:32.560
- Yeah, exactly.

37
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:34.150
And by the way, I've been seeing a lot

38
00:01:34.150 --> 00:01:37.340
of threads like this within
the last 24 hours on Twitter

39
00:01:37.340 --> 00:01:41.110
just about the battery life
between the Samsung Watch

40
00:01:41.110 --> 00:01:43.740
with the assistant and the Apple watch.

41
00:01:43.740 --> 00:01:46.410
And also the assistant
has been kind of buggy.

42
00:01:46.410 --> 00:01:49.030
Like I can do a lot of the things

43
00:01:49.030 --> 00:01:50.790
that I can do with the
smart speakers I have

44
00:01:50.790 --> 00:01:53.120
around the house and the smart displays

45
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:57.990
but the commands don't always
work the first time around.

46
00:01:57.990 --> 00:02:01.580
Sometimes the watch
doesn't hear me properly.

47
00:02:01.580 --> 00:02:04.520
If I am talking too loudly and
another microphone somewhere

48
00:02:04.520 --> 00:02:07.460
in my house picks me up, then
everything gets confused.

49
00:02:07.460 --> 00:02:09.250
And so I have to like yell at the watch

50
00:02:09.250 --> 00:02:11.330
and then I have to yell
at something behind me.

51
00:02:11.330 --> 00:02:13.900
So there's a lot of
things that I need to do,

52
00:02:13.900 --> 00:02:18.334
to make this work a
little better for myself.

53
00:02:18.334 --> 00:02:19.460
- Can you..

54
00:02:19.460 --> 00:02:20.580
- Which nobody should.

55
00:02:20.580 --> 00:02:22.970
- This is all just from
adding Google assistant

56
00:02:22.970 --> 00:02:26.010
to the smart watch and like
Samsung watches have already

57
00:02:26.010 --> 00:02:29.800
had a built-in smart
assistant for a while already.

58
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:30.633
- Bixby.

59
00:02:30.633 --> 00:02:31.466
- Right, Bixby?

60
00:02:31.466 --> 00:02:32.368
- That's right, Bixby.

61
00:02:32.368 --> 00:02:34.951
