Galaxy S21+ 5G (SM-G996U) and Galaxy S10+ (SM-G975U1). Both up to date and using Samsung Calendar.
I am hoping to find a way to sync in real time. Enter a calendar event on one phone and see it on the other phone in a short amount of time. Regardless of the distance between phones.
Is this possible, if yes could you please point me to the instructions or hold my hand in this forum.
Samsung calendar should be linked to your Samsung account, as such anything you enter on the calendar on any device should appear on all devices where you have the calendar installed. Google calendar acts in similar fashion. As long as your devices are logged into your account, your calendar data will appear on all devices. No other syncing necessary.

How often does it sync though? If I create an event that happens half an hour later on a Google calendar and I have it synced to my Samsung account will it appear in my Samsung calendar or is there a chance that it won't populate and I will miss the event notification?
I really can't answer that, as even though my calendars are linked, I strictly use Google calendar for entry and notifications. I want to say it's a real time sync, but why don't you create a test event and find out? You can also still use your Samsung calendar and allow notifications from Google calendar. You will end up with duplicate notifications, but you can turn off notifications from one calendar while still using the other. Like messages, the calendars are just a shell, and if they are linked, what you enter in one will populate the other.

Yeah it would be nice if all calendar events and timers would sync on my watch and phone it seems like half the time my timers/alarms that I set by voice command using Gemini do and half the time they don't. I've tried uninstalling Google clock and Samsung clock to make Gemini default to one or the other and it won't. I realize calendars are a separate beast but it seems like someone could figure this out. I've read that the pixel devices do this well.
I'm sorry. I can't relate to that as my calendar reminders on the watch and phone reminders are *maybe* a half a beat behind. I use Google calendar on both devices, and turned off notifications for Samsung calendar on the watch, even though the calendar tile was Samsung calendar - however, my events were synced. Now, under the new UI, I have added the tile for Google calendar instead. I do not use either of the assistants, but it is my understanding that Bixby works better with Samsung apps (because that's what it was created for) and Gemini works better for Google and non-Samsung apps. I can't confirm, as I said I don't use either.
