Ok, not a good start on this brand new watch,  so far it has overheated, I will get a notification when it feels like getting a notification,  If you want to use samsung pay you have to set a pin or pattern, so everytime you use your watch, you have to unlock it, not just when you use pay,  not good! Won't get emails unless you go through outlook, , so this is a samsung watch running google, but there is no samsung email, or gmail??  hmmmmm......there doesn't seem to be much help anywhere about these issues, I haven't sent my watch 3 in yet for the trade in deal, and its looking like im going to keep the 3 and send this new one back,  I've been using samsungs watches since I bought the frontier, and never had issues until THIS watch. Not a fan so far. Maybe in another year once they get it running like it should.

I understand how frustrating this can be. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to get the notifications working. https://thedroidguy.com/samsung-galaxy-watch-not-receiving-notifications-from-phone-anymore-1096117

Also, be sure you are wearing the watch correctly. https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00084602/ The watch should be placed approximately 1 inch above the wrist.

If the notifications are still not working after completing all of the troubleshooting, Submit an error report after replicating the issue

Aside from the Outlook mail issue, I have not experienced any of the others with my Watch 4 Classic. No overheating issues, I get notifications just fine, I only have to unlock it when I first put it on after removing it/charging it or when using Samsung Pay.

Maybe try unpairing/reseting and go through the pairing/setup procedure as though it were a new watch and see if that resolved the issue?

The mail issue may be a waiting game. You would have to think they would add Samsung Mail and/or Gmail at some point?
