I just got the new Samsung Galaxy 4 Classic. I have had it a little over a week now. My issue is it is putting a burn mark on my wrist where the sensor touches. I have my watch monitor all day to monitor my activity, heart rate, stress etc...
After a few days, my wrist started burning. (Please see the attached photos) I took the watch off for a few days and put on some coconut oil, and Epsom salt and it started to heal. What's left is a perfect circle that matches the very inner circle of the sensor.
This is very concerning to me as I wear normal watches every day and this does not happen. This seems like a laser issue with monitoring.
After two days of not wearing the watch and putting on treatment

Hello, The same just has happen to me as well. I used to wear active galaxy watch, and I've got Galaxy Watch 4 this Christmas, and my skin started to itch and is all red, right where the inner circle is. My wrist looks just like these pictures.

I have received the same burns and lesions from my Watch 5Pro. Both burns have hard bumps under them.

@DennisMD I'd absolutely recommend dropping @Sam_UK a DM, if you are based in the UK or Ireland. Samsung do treat cases like this seriously so myself or another moderator can look to escalate this internally for you!
