I had a Galaxy Watch Active with Samsung Pay for a while and I have to agree. That is a great feature if it works.
However, it didn't actually work very well. You have to do several button presses and taps on the phone, during which it launches very slowly, and once you get to the payment part it often failed for whatever reason. "Multiple cards detected", "payment denied", whatever. It was quicker to fish the card out of my wallet and much less stressful.
PS: The card I paid with when it failed was the exact same card that I had linked to Samsung Pay, there were no balance issues :)
