Looks like contact dermatitis. The person might be allergic to the material used.
It's due to those unknown chemicals which they applied on the bands. It's very common for those items from Taobao.

The watch can connect to wifi so it remote connects to my Note 9 and it can receive whatever notifications my Note 9 receives and it can reply sms and WhatsApp but can't use it for calls.

So if I am not bringing my Note 9 outside, either I hotspot it using my other phone or use a small mifi so the watch can connect remotely connect back to my Note 9.

Samsung Pay works on the watch when the watch is standalone (not connected to phone or wifi). But I haven't tested how many times can Samsung Pay be used when the watch is standalone before the watch needs to be connected to again to reload Samsung Pay tokens. :s13:

There was a recent software update. No issue with the HRM but step tracking is way off - it recorded about 50-70% of steps recorded on my Fitbit and Garmin. My Fitbit is a body worn tracker so is the most accurate for step tracking. My Garmin is hand worn so it tends to over measure steps as it also records hand movements as steps. The watch is hand worn and is much more conservative in recognising steps so it under records by a lot. But Samsung should be able to fix this via software update.

Hi, I'm a Spotify premium. I had no problem using streaming on wifi. But it can't works on remote. Everytime i try remote, it will trigger my phone to open Spotify. After that on the watch, it tells me to connect to the phone. Any advice?

The watch comes with several free watch faces. Can get some more from Galaxy Apps app and Galaxy Wearable app but may have to pay.

No. App names are Galaxy Apps and Galaxy Wearable. Preinstalled on Samsung phones. Don't think found in Play Store.

Looks like you are using samwatch_basic8 watch face. It's watch face issue. I used that watch face too. Having that green patch. It doesn't render properly with his watch face images.
