SAMSUNG GALAXY WATCH 5One early idea was that this would be the first Galaxy Watch with a rollable display. You read that right: a screen you can roll out to make it larger!
How do we know this? Beyond seeming like a natural addition to Samsung's other extendable-display devices, there are patents to back it up, which even describe a camera in the center. It wasn't ready for this year's watch, and we won't know for sure until we uncover some reliable leaks if it'll ever be real. For now, this news (details below) is just for fun, so stay tuned for updates.
What did come to the 2022 Galaxy Watch are things typical for any next-gen wearable, like better battery life, improved physical design, and new straps. It would also be nice to see wider compatibility—opening the phone up for full use with non-Samsung devices would undoubtedly be appreciated by iPhone and other Android users.
Only the Pro variant has route workout, but all versions include sleep tracking. This lets you plan your bedtime and can detect snoring and understand and track sleep stages (e.g., light sleep or REM).
The BioActive sensor in the watch controls three health sensors: Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis sensor for things like body fat percentage and skeletal muscle weight, Electrical Heart sensor for real-time ECG tracking to check for irregular rhythm, and Optical Heart Rate sensor to track cardiovascular health and detect unusual heart rates.
