Hi!
I would very much like to request for Samsung to put back the Pulse Oximeter or Heart Rate Sensor that came with the older Samsung Galaxy Smartphones.
It's a very useful & convenient feature for users who are closely monitoring their health like I do.
It was really disappointing when I found out that my Samsung phones after the S20 didn't have that feature anymore.

You will have to get a smart watch with these features. Excellent suggestions but that may mean fewer people buying watches.

You have a point.
However, they had those features on their phones before eventhough they already had Smart Watches out in the market.
I think it adds value to their phones.
Plus, not everyone can afford to have a smartphone & smart watch too. That would be in the area of USD2K with the current prices of Smartphones & Smart Watches.
Also, Samsung has already carved a niche in the Smart Watch market. People trust the quality of their products. I don't think it would affect their Smart Watch share of the pie that much.
If I were to invest in a Watch, I would still buy their Smart Watch for convenience in monitoring my health & keeping my phone in my bag.

I agree with you 100% but how many watches were they selling compared to now that they have integrated these features only on watches? I held unto my S8+ for the exact reason and am not really a fan of watches but it's about what makes more money for them.
