    2022's Galaxy Watch 5 Pro may hold some advantages over Samsung's Galaxy Watch 6 lineup, but the Watch 5 series lacked the physical rotating bezel that has set Galaxy smartwatches apart from the competition for so many years.

    Samsung has brought that rotating bezel back with the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, and after using the watch, we now have our video review up on YouTube that you can check out if you have the itch to buy a new smartwatch and are looking at the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic as a potential pick.

    In addition to the rotating bezel, the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic sports the biggest circular AMOLED display — 1.5 inches — on a Samsung smartwatch yet; the display is also super bright thanks to a peak brightness of 2000 nits. And while the look and feel of the software hasn't really changed, you get snappier performance thanks to the upgraded Exynos chip that powers the Galaxy Watch 6 lineup. Of course, a ton of fitness features are included as well.

    The Galaxy Watch 6 Classic isn't perfect and there's room to improve, but we'll let you watch the video above to find out its pros and cons, so go ahead and hit the play button!
