Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro review: The best wearable for Android fans
Samsung announced two versions of its Galaxy Watch 5 last year, but unlike previous years where we saw a standard model and one with a physical rotating bezel, Samsung did away with the physical dial and introduced a new “Pro” model.
The Pro marketing of this watch is a bit over the top, with Samsung doing its fair share of promoting how much better the Watch 5 Pro is for outdoor adventures than the standard Watch 5 model. It physically has a harder sapphire glass display, titanium watch case, and a much larger capacity battery, so these may help it withstand a bit more abuse.
Also: 3 hidden Samsung camera features you should be using
A couple of software features round out the “Pro” moniker such as the ability to import GPX files for hiking and biking while also having your return routes automatically mapped out for when you forget to do it yourself.
For all of the details on how to use the new Route tile and GPX files, check out this detailed walk-through. It’s clear that the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is not going to challenge your Garmin, Coros, or Polar GPS sports watch for serious outdoor adventures and desire for weekly charging, but it is the longest-lasting flagship smartwatch and will satisfy most casual athletes.
Also: Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 vs Galaxy Watch 5 Pro: How to choose
I’ve gone hiking, running, fishing, and sleeping with the Black Titanium Galaxy Watch 5 Pro over the past three weeks and have built a fair understanding of what Samsung is trying to do with the new watch. And while it may be the company’s latest smartwatch — and the first to go Pro — there are a few shortcomings that can be fixed with future software updates.
Specifications
| Display | 1.4-inch 450×450 pixels resolution Super AMOLED touchscreen |
|---|---|
| Processor | Samsung Exynos W920 dual-core |
| Materials | Titanium body with Sapphire Crystal glass with 29GPa rating |
| RAM/storage | 1. 5GB/16GB |
| Durability | 5 ATM/IP68 and MIL-STD-810H |
| Connectivity | 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/BeiDou, LTE (optional) |
| Sensors | Accelerometer, Barometer, Samsung BioActive Sensor (Optical Heart Rate + Electrical Heart Signal + Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis), Skin Temperature, Gyro Sensor, Geomagnetic Sensor, Light Sensor |
| Battery | 590 mAh, up to two days in typical usage |
| Dimensions | 45.5 x 45.5 x 15 mm (includes sensor bump) and 46.5 grams (without strap) |
| Colors | Black Titanium and Gray Titanium |
The Watch 5 Pro comes with Google’s Wear OS powered by Samsung, so that means you get Google Maps, Google Assistant, Google Pay, Messages, Keep Notes, and more. In addition, Samsung Pay, Samsung Messages, Samsung Health, Bixby, and other Samsung apps are provided. It is a Samsung Galaxy Watch after all.
Also: The best Android smartwatches
Hardware
There is no Galaxy Watch option with a rotating bezel this year, but the Watch 5 Pro does have a bit of a unique design with the new sapphire glass display. Replacing the physical rotating dial is a concave transition from the glass up to the edge of the casing that lets your finger swipe up and down to trigger a similar bezel effect. I find this finger guide design to be superior to the flat glass of other Galaxy Watch models and while the mechanism is all software-enabled now, it does give fans of the original rotating bezel a bit of closure.
Also: I put the Apple Watch Ultra through a Tough Mudder
The Watch 5 Pro is available in one size, so it may not even be a viable option for those with smaller wrists.
It’s a fairly thick watch, in order to accommodate the large capacity battery, outsizing last year’s Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, but it is lighter and feels great on the wrist.
As a fan of big watches though, the Watch 5 Pro is not nearly as big as some of the Garmin and Coros watches that I wear daily, so don’t feel too intimidated by the new design. Samsung also says that the larger size allows the base of the watch to be wider and protrude further out, allowing the wrist sensors to better read and track your health.
Jason Hiner/ZDNET
The 1.4-inch Super AMOLED display is gorgeous, with crisp fonts, brilliant colors, and a seamless touchscreen experience. With rugged, outdoorsy smartwatches, input delays and lag can be frequent. Not with the 5 Pro; Taps and swipes have performed flawlessly, and I am especially enjoying the default watch face options.
This year, the watch case is made with titanium and available in black or gray. You’ll have to buy the regular Watch 5 for the more lively colors.
The speaker is oddly placed on the top of the watch — where the bands sort of cover it — while the microphone is found on the right side between the navigation buttons.
Also: I made a huge Apple Watch mistake
The default band that shipped with the Watch 5 Pro is the new D-Buckle Sport band, which is much better than the default band I received with my Watch 4 Classic last year. It is a soft silicone band that you adjust by sliding open a latch, fitting the band, and then locking the latch. How secure is the new buckle? I have yet to see the band pop open during any of my workouts or daily activities.
Samsung
Two hardware buttons are positioned on the right side of the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro: A Home key and a Back key. A single press of the Home key takes you back to your default watch face. You can assign any app you want to a double press and long press of the Home key, so I have mine set to Google Wallet and Google Assistant, respectively.
This integration and support for Google have transformed the Samsung Galaxy Watch experience into one that Android enthusiasts will be satisfied with.
Still, not everything is geared toward Google services. Samsung Pay is the default press-and-hold action of the Back key and there is currently no setting available to change this to Google Pay or any other application. Let’s hope Samsung provides a software update to allow customization of this button action, too.
Also: How the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro may help those trying to conceive
Flipping the watch over we see the Samsung BioActive sensor that is used to capture your heart rate, bioelectrical impedance for blood pressure (not in the US), irregular heartbeat (ECG), blood oxygen levels, and more. To the left side of the back sensor unit is the skin temperature sensor but this has not been activated yet, so stay tuned for more on the tracking feature.

How to Google more effectively to get the results you need
When you first power on the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, you’re greeted with a familiar Samsung wearable experience.
There are the usual Tizen OS watch faces, tile UI elements, Samsung apps, Bixby, and more. The 5 Pro is clearly still a Galaxy Watch, and with Google Wear OS powering the software, the watch only gets better.
Open the app drawer and you will start to see why the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro running Wear OS is a game changer for Samsung and Google’s watch platform. I currently have the following installed that were not present on my past Galaxy Watch models: Google Wallet, Google Maps, Google Assistant, Google Fit, Gboard (yes, a keyboard for your watch), and more. Thanks to Wear OS, the Watch 5 Pro gains more functionality and access to some of my most widely-used apps across devices.
Samsung
However, that’s not to say that the software experience — particularly the Google Play Store — is perfect. There were many times when I would search for watch-supported apps on my phone and would be presented with results that weren’t even compatible. This was because whenever I searched a keyword, the Google Play Store would jump out of its watch-filtered system and show me all results in the marketplace — including mobile and tablet apps.
My hopes for a Telegram or Starbucks app were dashed a couple of times.
To see which Wear OS apps you can confidently install on your Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, jump into the Play Store found directly on the watch itself. I found many more apps using the Play Store on the watch, including searching via voice to text.
Personalizing the Galaxy Watch experience
Running is supported, but the data provided is pretty basic.
Matthew Miller/ZDNET
The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is managed through two key Samsung apps: Galaxy Wearable and Samsung Health. To make the most out of your smartwatch, you’ll want to sync up with the two services, both of which are free but very beneficial.
Also: How Samsung surpassed the Apple Watch, with a little help from Google
- Galaxy Wearable: You’re presented with the basic Galaxy Watch information, including the watch name, its battery status, links to watch faces, settings, and more. It is within the app where you can adjust the elements of the Watch 5 Pro’s watch faces, including what metrics you’d like to appear on the home screen, and the color theming. There is even a compass index option in the Pro analog watch face to try out.
- Samsung Health: Samsung Health is a smartphone-based application that consolidates data collected by the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro into a visually-appealing experience. Data such as steps taken, exercises completed, sleep, stress, heart rate, and more are provided here on a home page, with access to detailed reports. Tapping on ECG or blood pressure (in countries where supported) will open up the Samsung Health Monitor app, a separate service that consolidates your metrics into comprehensible reports for your physician.

To encourage healthy habits, you can also start challenges with friends, gain achievements, and view weekly performance reports via Samsung Health./cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/23933373/DSC03353_watch_5.jpg)
There is also a fitness section of Samsung Health where you can find programs provided by third-party services. There are not a ton of available programs, and many are targeted toward beginners, but it looks like a decent free service provided by Samsung Health.
The one real “Pro” feature: GPX tracking
The one “Pro” software feature of the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is support for GPX for hiking and biking. GPX, or GPS Exchange Format File, is a file type that contains geographic info such as tracks, routes, and waypoints. It’s a bit odd that this is the focus of the Watch 5 Pro when there is no support for trail running, mountain biking, or even running.
The first thing you are going to need is a GPX file for the location you plan to hike or bike. You can try searching online, but you will quickly realize that a third-party service subscription is required to create GPX files. Trailforks is a fairly affordable subscription with GPX files for popular hikes. Personally, I am a Strava subscriber.:format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/23952684/akrales_220811_226124_0157.jpg)
Hiking to my local fishing hole with the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.
Matthew Miller/ZDNET
The GPX support is interesting and if you build up a library of routes, it could be useful even for offline travel. However, my GPS sports watches have preloaded topographic maps and much longer battery life, so they are far more useful for hiking in the wilderness. It’s not clear if Samsung is going to prioritize GPX reading as much moving forward. I hope it does, because while the feature on the Watch 5 Pro is lacking compared to the sports watch market, it’s a great first step.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro or Apple Watch Series 8?
There isn’t much point in comparing the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro to the Apple Watch Series 8 running WatchOS 9 since both models are exclusive to their respective operating systems and platforms. An Android user will find more benefits using the Galaxy Watch, while iOS users will feel at home with the Apple Watch.
That said, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro beats the Apple Watch 8 in terms of battery life and body composition measurements.
However, Apple’s WatchOS 9 brings better fitness support with running power from the wrist, better options for viewing data as you work out, more robust watch applications, and a powerful Apple Healthkit system.

Bottom line
The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is available now for $449.99 in Black Titanium and Gray Titanium. Samsung offers compelling trade-in deals so I sent in my Galaxy Watch 4 Classic for a LTE Watch 5 Pro and shaved $140 off the price. The Watch 5 Pro has proven to be a perfect companion to my Galaxy Z Fold 4. I’ve held many calls on the watch, through Bluetooth and LTE connections, and enjoy having all of the Google apps on a Samsung watch.
The Watch 5 Pro easily lasts two full days, including tracking my sleep at night, and functions into the third day. This easily beats the Apple Watch 7 and 8 Series, but we will soon be testing it against the Apple Watch Ultra.
The D-Buckle band looks great, stays securely in place, and is very comfortable while the brilliant Super AMOLED display makes it easy for my aging eyes to interact with the watch.
Also: Apple Watch vs Fitbit for sleep tracking. How the data compares
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is easily the best wearable for Android smartphone owners and it excels in all of the smartwatch categories. It’s made with materials normally reserved for high-end GPS sports watches but is still priced at $450. Samsung may have missed on the “Pro” label, but the company nailed the watch and there is more coming in future updates. Android smartphone users no longer have to be envious of the Apple Watch and iPhone users.

Star Wars Imperial Representation Issues – Read on DTF
Have you ever heard that the Empire in Star Wars is not evil? I’m sure yes. I have been fighting between supporters of the fact that the Empire is an absolute evil and those who believe that the Empire is a good state, for many decades.

First of all, evil must be aesthetic
This controversy divides the fan community even worse than the midi-chlorian or Disney canon clash, because it’s laden with fan politics, delusions, egocentrism, and other cognitive distortions of all kinds. Moreover, Lucas himself did everything to answer the question “is the Empire evil?” It was as difficult as possible, but at the same time he himself had an unambiguous opinion. And now, using the example of this question, which is complex in its simplicity, I will show how bad everything is in Star Wars with the consistency of the canon.
In order to understand the full depth of the tragedy, it is worth first to realize the author’s intention of Lucas. And he is as simple as three credits: the Empire is an absolute evil, it personifies for him all those features that Lucas despises in the state. Moreover, there is absolutely no need to dig into the nature of the monomyth, which formed the basis of the plot of 4-6 episodes, or interviews, it is enough to read the opening credits to A New Hope: “There is a civil war.
Rebel spaceships striking from a hidden base have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire.”
Already here we are given to understand who is evil in the film, later confirming in the course of the plot. There will be interviews later, where Lucas will again and again indicate his position on the Empire, where in the end he admits that for him the image of the Empire was a kind of warning about where the United States might go because of its warlike policy. Those. for the author of the whole saga, the Empire was and always remained an absolute evil. But here the nuances begin.
Let’s remember episode 4. First, we are told in the credits in the forehead that the Empire is evil, it is building a station – the killer of planets, and the emperor is dispersing the last stronghold of democracy – the Senate. Then we are shown the capture by the Empire of a diplomatic ship, Vader killing the captain of the ship during interrogation, Vader almost killing his own officer, the consequences of the destruction of the Jawa crawler and Luke’s adoptive parents by the Imperials, allude to the torture of Princess Leia and so that there was no doubt at all, they destroy the planet Alderaan with billions of people on it.
Everything, this is quite enough to believe Lucas that the Empire is an absolute evil, all who serve it are also evil and it is noble to kill them. For the entire film, we will not be shown a single positive or at least neutral Imperial, since they will all be participants in war crimes.
And then episodes 5 and 6 come out on the screens and there … The Empire appears before us as just an adversary. The plot from the confrontation between the two factions strongly goes towards the personal stories of Luke, Leia, Han and Vader. In episode 5, the imperials do not do any reprehensible acts at all, except for electrocuting Khan and then freezing him (which is completely herbivorous compared to episode 4), in episode 6 they build the Death Star-2, which is bad, but besides that, again, more there is nothing reprehensible (the destruction of the Ewoks in battle does not count, since the Ewoks attacked the Imperials and became a legitimate target). Why such a sudden turn?
Imperial version of events on Endor
On the one hand, it would be difficult for Lucas, who raised the bar of villainy in episode 4 by destroying the planet, to surpass this.
If someone less talented were at the helm, then in each new film they would simply destroy more on the planet in some new way. But Lucas wouldn’t do that. Yes, he could have terrified with references to his beloved Vietnam: for example, Song My (for example, showing how the imperials clean up the city) or defoliant bombing (chemical attack on the city), but he did not want and could not. Lucas was still making a film for teenagers and excessive on-screen violence could affect the rating of the film, and the image of evil created in the first film was so strong in his opinion that there was no need to confirm it with new atrocities. This is on the one hand.
On the other hand, after the 4th episode, marketing kicked in – Lucas, thanks to the contract concluded with the studio, received all the income from film merchandise, and therefore was interested in selling it. And it just so happened that the merch with soldiers in white armor and Darth Vader began to disperse like hot cakes.
Lucas accidentally managed to create such an aesthetic image of evil that he won the hearts and minds of fans (it is worth mentioning here that the reason for the lower popularity among cosplayers and recons of all sorts of rebels is that they look like bums). And it left its mark on episodes 5-6. If Lucas began to incite even more villainy and abomination around the Empire, and the parents of young Americans, quite conservative in their mass, would become indignant and forbid their children to buy figurines and T-shirts with these vile Nazi soldiers.
Which of the above two factors turned out to be more important is unknown, but a sharp change in the tone of the narration caught the eye of many. If you watch episodes 5 and 6 in isolation from 4, then the Empire in them looks like a completely worthy state. Yes, Vader and Palpatine are not exactly examples of virtue, but all their villainy is petty dirty tricks that are allowed in the war against terrorists. Even the fact that at the end of episode 6 there are massive festivities on different planets after the death of Palpatine did not spoil the theory emerging in the minds of fans that the Empire is not really evil.
Of course, there was no confirmation of this theory until at the beginning of 90’s Lucas did not decide that it was time to make money wherever it turns out and books, games, comics, reference books and rulebooks poured into the market far, far away. And this is where it started.
The authors of the materials on pollutants faced a rather difficult task. The films somehow completely lose sight of the structure of the Empire, its ideology, politics, culture, etc. We see only counter-guerrilla operations of the fleet, and obviously with sympathy for the rebels. And in order for the works of the universe to look authentic, something more is required – the laws of the world by which he lives. First of all, the authors needed an answer to the question: if the Empire is so evil, why are there so few rebels and how could it survive for 20 long years? Lucas in episode 4 again gave a very clear answer – the majority are intimidated and the commissioning of the Death Star should finally suppress any germ of thought about the resistance of the Empire, since only a small part of the most desperate and daring fight against evil.
Freedom for everyone. Help Make It Real [Rebel Propaganda]
For the film, this answer was appropriate, but not for post-endor authors. Following the logic, the oppressed galaxy after the death of Palpatine should have risen and crushed the Empire, but neither Lucas, who outlined the general contours of the development of the universe, nor the authors themselves, needed such an outcome, since the main content of the post-endor was the same as in the films – the struggle uprisings (now the New Republic) and fragments of the Empire. This means that the rapid collapse of the Empire was absolutely not in the plans of either the authors or Lucasfilm. Separately, I note that the choice to continue the rebel-imperial conflict had its own rather simple logic – the audience likes it, which means we must continue until everyone gets bored.
And at that moment, the representation of the Empire began to slowly change. Already in the first books of the Star Wars Expanded Universe – “The Thrawn Trilogy” by Timothy Zahn – the Empire does not look like such an absolute evil, and quite worthy people, like Captain Pellaeon, are in its service.
Even Thrawn himself, although he plays the role of a villain, does not have villainous motives at all. Zan’s empire has a purpose and believes that all means to an end are good. Such an Empire can already exist not only due to fear, and imperial loyalty can have many reasons. Yes, the Empire still remains a rigid authoritarian (on separate empire-loyal worlds and completely totalitarian, since there is a real ideological indoctrination of the entire population) regime, with a developed repressive apparatus, often operating outside the legal field.
Loyal? Prove it! Join COMPNOP (Committee to Maintain the New Order) today!
But more and more often in books and reference books, the systemic and non-legal nature of acts of violence by the state will be transferred from the Empire itself to its individual representatives. It is not the ISB that has such broad powers that it can execute a person without trial, but only some of its representatives exceed their powers.
It was not the omnipotence of the position of the Grand Moff, but the madness and self-confidence that gripped Tarkin, pushed him to blow up Alderaan. And so on and so forth. By the end of 90-x in the image of the Empire, the emphasis shifted – now it was not evil (or better, unfair) in its essence, and only its leaders were evil. And then the prequels happened.
George Lucas, creating prequels, faced a difficult task – he had to show how in the “idyllic” or even “ideal” Republic, Palpatine managed to rise to power and turn it into an Empire. In fact, episodes 1-3 were supposed to show not only the fall of Anakin Skywalker, but also globally – the fall of the Republic itself and turning into an antithesis to itself. Lucas chose a rather simple path – he did not reinvent the wheel and showed a state rotten to the core, where the defenders of the Republic’s ideals do not notice that it has long ceased to answer them itself, where greed and vice run the show, where billions suffer, because politicians on Coruscant they don’t care.
Such a lowering of standards made it possible, without a long exposure, to show how one ambitious person can, using the vices of the system, come to power and then demolish it.
2000 senators inside this building, none of them care about you. [CNS Propaganda]
This wouldn’t be a problem if, when watching episodes 1-3, and especially after reading related literature, a vile little thought didn’t get into your head: but the Republic is much worse than the Empire. Indeed, the early years of Palpatine’s reign would be clearing out the Augean stables that had been filled with shit for centuries. The empire will throw out pirates, slave traders, criminal authorities from thousands of systems, suppress the omnipotence of mega-corporations, and remove many customs barriers. For an ordinary inhabitant of the galaxy, all these measures were quite worth the small costs in the form of restrictions on rights, less local autonomy, and rare, at first, repressions.
The handbook writers did an excellent job of describing why the arrival of the Empire was seen by many as a long-awaited deliverance and why the Empire was so resilient. But this only exacerbated the problems already existing in the canon. It turned out that for 20 years the empire lived quite normally, 99% of the inhabitants of the galaxy did not feel negative towards her and were quite satisfied with life. And only a small group of rebels from politicians-losers and other scum of society muddied the waters and wanted to return … to the Republic, which we saw only rotten and vile.
Do you think they want peace? Rebels are terrorists
The perception of the Empire after such introductory turns upside down. Now the whole plot of the original trilogy looks like a provocation by the Empire for an unnecessary escalation of violence by a group of terrorists. Yes, in the books, the rebels are still entirely idealists who tremble over every innocently killed life, but the Empire is no longer the kingdom of evil.
Yes, the emperor is obsessed with power, Vader is ruthless to the mistakes of others, and Tarkin is ambitious and soulless. But it turns out that they all sacrifice a little, for the benefit of many. Indeed, this thesis cannot be refuted with the help of reference books and books, since the empire does not kill millions every day for cd. Yes, the scale of this small sometimes reaches millions of corpses, but the scale of the galaxy is so huge that these deaths are lost in the general mass, but in most of its territories there is real order. Even worse, along with the development of the post-endor storyline, Pellaeon’s “true empire” appeared, which got rid of most of the shortcomings of Palpatine’s empire. The process of washing the image can already be considered completed.
But this seemed not enough, and very positive Imperials appeared in reference books and books, for example, Natasi Daala, who was a typical villain 10 years before, suddenly became the head of the Galactic Federation in the Legacy of Power series, which replaced the New Republic.
Daala seemed to condemn Palpatine’s empire, but along with the condemnation in her words, there were always praises for what was good there (obvious parallels here directly suggest themselves). Or an even more standard example, when Emperor Jagged Fel became the head of the imperial shard, and Jaina Solo became his wife. Oga, daughter of Han and Leah. And in reference books and books, an opinion appeared from the imperial side that everything bad that Palpatine did was explained by the threat of the Yuuzhan Vong, which Palych foresaw and prepared the galaxy for, but the vile rebels prevented him, which doomed trillions of lives to death. Oops, the arrow is upside down.
Now every true Imperial had an ace up his sleeve, which interrupted the doom of Alderaan, Caamas and other worlds destroyed by the Empire, as well as many others that could not be destroyed (for example, Dak). On the pages of the book, unlike the film, you can easily and simply destroy a hundred billion living beings and not acquire an 18+ rating, which allowed hundreds of billions of lives to be stupidly cut out for the action of the New Jedi Order series, whose blood fell entirely on the rebels and the New Republic, unable to stop the threat of the Vong in time.
And at that moment, the image of the Empire from the Expanded Universe came into dissonance with the image created by Lucas. The films now looked like rebel propaganda, and the supporters of the Empire could reduce all its minuses to pluses. Schizophrenia? From Lucas’ point of view, yes, that’s also why he gave such an easy blessing to cancel the old canon after buying the rights to the Disney universe (despite the fact that his personal attitude to the canon has always been at the level of “this is some kind of fan fiction, but I I get money from them, so let them live”).
And in the beginning there were no signs of trouble. The desire to explain how the world of Star Wars works, to answer difficult questions that were not addressed in the films, is reasonable and worthy. But in the process of finding these answers, the people responsible for the development of the universe themselves did not notice how they turned the literal Nazis into generally good guys. I am sure that of course they did not set such a goal for themselves, just at a certain moment the number of accumulated facts and logical constructions justifying the Empire became so great that without violating the integrity of the canon they could not be refuted, which means that it remained simply to follow the already established course.
This is doubly amusing, because while the most natural “liberal turn” was taking place in the world, the authors of the materials on the polls made a turn in the opposite direction, creating an example of an ideal conservative state.
As a result, we have that even in the old canon one can twist the facts in such a way as to prove any point of view in the range from “the empire is the kingdom of evil” to “the empire is the kingdom of good.” For obvious reasons, neither Lucas, nor many of his employees, who saw how the work of 30 years went somewhere in the wrong place, did not like this situation. The idea of resetting the canon was already in the air at the beginning of the 10s, and rumors about it periodically leaked into the fan community. Disney, having obtained the rights and blessing of Lucas, canceled the old canon. After that, he began to produce products, where the Empire was always shown from the negative side. But the quality of performance really let us down.
In the new canon, in order not to step on the old rake, the Empire was made the same focus of vices as the Republic, which causes wild burning in many fans of the Empire from the old canon, and me too, as it often goes completely against internal logic universe.
First, we show how Palpatine holds the galaxy in a tight grip, breaks local governments, drowns planets in blood, and then we make it clear that this does not apply to the world of crime, which is doing quite well. And such nuances here the car. In many ways, the persistent unwillingness to launder the Empire is based on the fact that the same people are at the head of the story group, under which the old canon reached a dead end. They are afraid to repeat the mistakes of the past, so they make even more serious mistakes and destroy all the magic that was in the universe.
Strength through order. Fight alongside the Empire. [Propaganda poster. In the center is Grand Admiral Ray Sloane]
The problem is not even in the very idea of the “evil Empire”, but in the fact that, seizing on the idea that the Galactic Empire is the Third Reich, the authors stepped on the same rake: instead of showing the regime itself as criminal, a system of disproportionate violence directed against citizens, we are shown only the totality of the evil of individual people.
At the same time, there are good people in the Empire and they are forced to do bad things, but it doesn’t look like the system breaks them and makes them do it, but that it’s just because of the bad people in this system. Those. in fact, nothing in the approach to the representation of the Empire has changed internally, only the intensity of denunciation of its bad deeds externally has only intensified. Because of this, for example, Admiral Ray Sloan does not look like a tragic, but a completely comic character – a good man at the head of bad people. To give it motivation, the authors began to prescribe all the same ideas that the good imperials had in the old canon. Those. Well, the circle is closed. But at the same time, they completely forgot that their Empire is evil and everyone in its service is basically aware of this, which means that Sloane is also evil and voluntarily made a deal with her conscience (which she did, judging by the books). Maybe if the books on this period had been in more talented hands, a good internal conflict of beliefs and reality would have awaited us, but it didn’t turn out very well.
Perhaps one day we will see again attempts to give the existence of the Empire more realism, without throwing it into the extremes of evil or good. But there will be one difficulty along the way – any attempt to launder the empire breaks the magic of episodes 4-6, built on the simple idea that the Empire is absolute evil. and somehow get around this nuance is unlikely to come out without devaluing the films themselves Lucas. These are the pies.
