No ECG option as well. Only blood oxygen, Heart rate and stress measurement. This is very weird!
Have you installed the Samsung health monitor app? If install liao still cannot see these 2 options, maybe your watch is not local set so don't have these 2 options.

I assume the Samsung Health is what you refer to as Samsung Health Monitor. Yes, installed and no ECG or Blood Pressure function. Samsung S23 and Watch 5 registered on Samsung Singapore online successfully per serial number for warranty. This is very....very weird! If it is non local set, you will not be able to register for local Samsung warranty as Samsung do not practice international warranty like Apple --> am I correct?

No, Samsung health and Samsung health monitor are 2 separate apps. Try going to the Galaxy store on the phone to search for Samsung health monitor app and install it.

I reset the watch and the app is in the watch, not on the phone. Cannot locate anywhere on the phone or on the samsung or goggle apps store :mad:. After I activate the Samsung health monitor logo/apps in the watch, it links to the phone automatically to update the phone, and it is all set up.

I went to Samsung CS and wasted 30 mins of my time, yet they cannot resolve the issue. After that, state my watch is not a local set? I showed them my Samsung SG warranty registration number and they all turned quiet............what a bunch of idiots. For information, the watch 5 is the bundle offer by Singtel when you purchase a S23 Phone. How can Singtel sell NON WARRANTY (Parallel Imported) Samsung Phone and bundle a fake Watch 5???:rolleyes:

Do keep in mind new gen of galaxy watches are normally announced and launched in August and already there are some leaks with regards to the upcoming Watch 6. Personally i got a standard watch 5 over the Pro because the chunky design of the Pro is such an eye sore and the only real upgrade on the Pro is better battery life.

really a lot, is it due to freebie with some new Samsung phone? Quite tempted to try one, but holding back due to battery life. shall hold off till watch 6.

Newer doesn't always mean better. I really won't bother about any "latest tech" apart from better battery life. Take Watch 5 for example. Its been more than half a year since launch but the skin temperature sensor has yet to be functional. Even worse, the upcoming 1st app to integrate it will be for menstrual cycle monitoring. So again, don't be suckered in by everything new least when its not anything useful.

Anyone uses the watch offline with NFC payment?

Just got an error tht needs to connect to internet, googled to find out it's abt some token key

My question is, how often do I need to do that and is there a way to find out if I still have token key

A number of token keys are stored on device for offline use and are refreshed once connected to wifi or data. Exact number of token keys stored are unknown and there is no way to find out how many uses you have left.

Personally, on my watch 5 bluetooth the most number of NFC transactions i made on a single day would be 4-5 times and i have never encountered error before. And i actually have hardly ever connected the watch to wifi. If you are really heavy user of NFC on the watch, then you probably would want to connect the watch to wifi daily in order to refresh the tokens.

For goggle pay, do we need to open Google Wallet for payment? Can we pay when the watch is on the wake screen like when we pay with our phones?
