I pre-ordered the "largest" Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, 47mm, Silver - $429.99
Got a trade in for my GW3 of $150.
Got best band that comes with it $59.99 for free plus $49.99 fabric band that looks "meh" for free as well.
Got some bundle discount of $110 and an EDU discount of $34.50.
Preorder promo code Q5B5RESWEB for $50 off.
I had $25 promo for my birthday or something.
10% back for payment via PayPal.
When I do the math it seems like the deal for me is approximately $144 to upgrade from GW3 to GW6Classic which seem like a SlickDeal. YMMV

QA Note: $206.99 with EPP discount and $50 off promo code, and after $150 trade in

Is it worth it to trade it in for a Galaxy Watch6 Classic, 43mm, Black, BT ?
With Trade in and coupons my out the door price is $122.47 so that puts me at $250 total out of pocket. Is this a waste of money move or worthwhile? I currently use my watch mostly for fitness tracking. Sorry if this is a common question but I am new to smartwatches
Also not sure when I will see PayPal 10% as since it is a pre-order they won't charge me until it ships.
Generally the price is too steep $400, for watch when most aliexpress watches cost $50 some even with glucose, BP, and bezel. Some have larger last a full week. Not this nonsense charge every day.
To be honest this version 6 feel like a lot of marketing BS. New CPU same cpu number as the old one just 10% faster. (good luck testing that), same GPU. Smaller battery than watch 5 pro, instead of titanium (expensive) - aluminum. Slightly bigger screen. Question is - where is tha BEEF?
Blood sugar? Blood Pressure?
I searched my emails for my multiple Samsung accounts and can't find a single birthday or $25 offer ever.
Probably takes more energy that is why we see small bump in battery.
Same GPU.
My opinion will last identically to watch 5. Watch 5Pro has significantly better battery:
Battery: 43mm: 300 mAh; 47mm: 425 mAh vs pro 590 mAh
Weight: 43mm: 52g; 47mm: 59g vs PRO 33.5g
With more and more competition I think Samsung knows they are in trouble. This does not look impressive.

I initially was worried about the same thing as I had forgotten that. So you should get $150 trade in for your GW3 (Classic looks)

I believe to turn it on they have to get approval of FDA as some sort of medical device.
All pretty stupid, as any measurement would be super helpful even if not 100% accurate.
