Samsung Galaxy Watch

I'm not sure so asked about this in another thread. If the 46mm refers to the glass diameter then I suspect yes. I've been reading up on screen protectors and they seem to divide opinion. Some people say they ruin the feel of the watch and affect the touch sensitivity. A lot of protectors also leave a small gap round the edge, which makes them look a bit naff.

if it will leave a gap I wont bother.

I'm starting to think this but just know I will whack it against a door handle within the 1st 5 minutes.

you should hope the gorilla glass would withstand that.

I constantly wack my S3 frontier off the door frame and my desk, luckily the glass comes nowhere near because of the watch bezel so part of me thinks a screen protector isn't necessary, it's not like a phone screen where the screen would come into direct contact with the grit and dirt in your pocket which is what causes the scratches.

Having said that with a screen protector on mine the watch still responds perfectly and it still looks slick so doesn't bother me for the added protection it gives.

I can't see why the S3 protectors wouldn't fit the larger Galaxy watch as it looks very similar to my Frontier.

Potentially interested - had a basic Sony watch for a year or so but it's getting a bit long in the tooth.

Am I right in thinking these support offline Spotify playback?  I.e. download Spotify tracks and listen to them away from home without the phone?  Been after this feature for a looong time.

You can do it on the Gear S3 so we'll assume you can. You'd have to pick and choose as its only got 4GB of storage on the galaxy watch.

4GB is fine for me - I want to be able to pick a few albums or a playlist and go for a run without my phone.

Really want one but wrists are so skinny its prob a bad idea. Wish there was some demo ones to try them on near me.  

Anyone know where to find out what apps are available since its tizen os rather than wear os. Looks like about 10 on samsung website which doesnt do much justice after saying "loads to choose from"

Foster

go for the 42mm if you have small wrists, its what im doing =)
