The LTE Samsung Galaxy Watch Finally Gets One UI Update

The LTE Samsung Galaxy Watch is getting an overdue One UI update | TechRadar. My daily driver Smartwatch, the LTE variant of the Galaxy Watch by Samsung, is finally getting the new One UI update, and it is great. One tap wakeup. Active Swim information. Heart rate notifications if my heart rate reaches a level I can set. Even better battery life; although, I can get two days already with time to spare. New watch faces. Easier access to Settings. All in all, the best Smartwatch is getting better.

#WhyIAmASolo - I Don't Have To Use A Corporate Phone

Opinion: Google Pixel 3a could be the enterprise presence it desperately needs. Hey, I get it. BigLaw IT administrators have a tough job. In addition to herding cats, they have to guarantee security of the computers and devices in the enterprise, and it is a thankless job. They get to be service techs when an employee breaks a device, or doesn't know how to use it. So, an inexpensive enterprise grade device directly from Google without bloatware is a no brainer. I bought a Pixel 3A XL as one of my backup phones because I needed to test it; but, using it a little convinced me that IT Administrators who don't want to bet the farm on an expensive or proprietary device should take a hard look at the Pixel. Better yet, though, go solo.

#TBT - Can't Get A Date? It Could Be Your Wearable Tech.

I posted this five years ago, which seems like a galaxy far, far away. How I ever got a date is beyond me.

You Seem Depressed, Dave. I Don't Think You Should Go Outside

Amazon Is Working on a Device To Read Human Emotions - Bloomberg. Everyone remembers the HAL 9000, the creepy spaceship computer that read lips and controlled everything. Well, what if your wearable computer device did the same? Amazon thinks that we will be better off if our mother's are with us every minute, and can suggest chicken soup by sensing when we have a cold. That is fine; but, what happens when we want to go out somewhere, and our Smartwatch tells us no, because we engaged in risky behavior last time? "I'm sorry Dave; but, I don't think that is a good idea." Would you rather play a game instead?

Samsung Updates Galaxy Watch With One UI Update

Samsung rolls out One UI update to Galaxy Watch, Gear S3, and Gear Sport. Tizen, the best Smartwatch software for the Galaxy Watch, the best Smartwatch, just got better, and wearable computing took another big step forward. A new interface, easier settings, new watch faces, touch to wake, better battery life (mine already lasts two full days), and many other updates make wearable computers more essential than ever. Rather than augmenting reality by adding computer elements to a user view, wearable computers augment our ability to know what is happening all around us, without interrupting the flow of our lives. The freedom to move around in our world, while staying in direct contact with the rest of the world, is improving the landscape of our existence. A good Smartwatch is far less expensive than a luxury statement watch, and far more useful.

Working To The Soundtrack Of The Good, The Bad And The Ugly On A Sunday Morning

These BOSE smartglasses are amazing. I am working at the office, and listening to the Soundtrack of my favorite movie of all time, "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly". No earphones clogging up my ears. No ugly cables all over the place. They have a 200 foot range, so I can get up and walk around the office, into the kitchen or library, and still have amazing BOSE sound. If a phone call or text or email comes in, I get a notification and the music pauses. I can call up Google Assistant with the standard voice command: "OK Google", and ask anything. It is like having a computer in your glasses. BOSE is developing new Augmented Reality skills for the device every day. The only thing lacking is a video camera, which is a good thing. Nobody need worry that I am filming them when I walk around. Now, back to my music.

The Best Smart Watch Phone Is The Samsung Galaxy Watch

The Best Smart Watch Phone for Apple and Android Users. I own four out of the five SmartWatch Phones highlighted in this article. The author is mistaken. The Apple Watch is the worst of the bunch, by far. First, it is twice as expensive as the others. Second, it is a an ugly little thing, with not enough room on the square face to see anything well, and with an interface that is dated and ugly. Are you kidding me? Hey, Apple users. I get it. You like the "cool" factor of being an Apple person. Stay in your delusion. I have always been more about function than "style" anyway. But, if you think that a little rectangular watch is better looking than a classic round faced watch, you need to have your head examined. Jeez.

So Many Smartwatches...So Little Time

DEAL: Get the Samsung Galaxy Gear S3 Frontier for only $109.99. Okay, Michael Wade. This one's for you. I have a couple of Gear S3 Frontier Smartwatches from Samsung, and, although I use my Galaxy Watch every day, these are perfectly capable watches that run the same software as mine. The only difference is that they don't have an LTE phone chip, so they must be connected to your Smartphone to work properly. But, $110 is Timex range, and I know how much you love your cheap watches. This one does it all, for the same price. Let me know when you order one.
