The Watch 5 Pro has the capacity to measure blood pressure and skin temperature, although these features are not yet available in some regions. Samsung states: "the blood pressure app has not yet been cleared by the US FDA and will not be available in the United States unless and until such clearance is received."

The market did see a new smartwatch that not only saw two major companies partner up (Samsung and Google), but it also signalled what could be on the horizon for the industry as a whole. The Galaxy Watch 4 was that device, and being one of only a handful of watches that actually carries Wear OS 3 (even at the time of this review), it remains an excellent smartwatch that’s easy to recommend. Change your airtime tariff after 30 days and then once every billing month during your minimum contract period, choosing from a selected family of tariffs.
