Is there any difference between sync speed with the S6 and the S5/S4? The S6 has WiFi 5 with 5Ghz whereas the S5/S4 only have WiFi 4 with 2.4Ghz. I had bought a S4 and I remember it took a long time to sync my playlist from iTunes. If I remember correctly, it took about 2 minutes per song. Has the inclusion of WiFi 5 in the S6 made a difference?

I don't remember the time it took to sync my playlists from the phone/cloud to the series 5, but in the 6 is about instantaneous. As in, I haven't been able to see it because the music is already there when I put the watch in the charger.

I guess the inclusion of WiFi 5 really did help.

Thanks
