Galaxy Watch 4/5: Download the Watchface of Google Pixel Watch
Since the Galaxy Watch 4, Samsung has been using Google’s WearOS in its Galaxy Watch devices; however, not the stock WearOS but with a layer of One UI in it. In Google’s Pixel Watches, they use stock WearOS, which makes them different from the WearOS-booted Galaxy Watches, maybe because of their different Watch Faces. However, you can get a Pixel Watch-like experience in your Galaxy Watch, too, so let’s know how we can do it.
Informatively, what makes the Galaxy Watches (Watch 4 & Watch 5) different from the Pixel Watch is its UI and, most importantly, its watch face. Thankfully, all types of Digital Watch Faces are available on the Google Play Store, which can be experienced by anyone out there to have a Google watch-like look. Notably, Digital Wings has developed Google Pixel Watch watch faces that offer plenty of different options as well, which you can rely on.

If you are willing to have a Pixel Watch-like experience, you can use this Digital Wings-created Pixel Watch watch face; however, it will cost you $0.85 each. Not only that, but you can even make changes to it at your own will. Notably, it’s not possible to get all the Pixel Watch watch faces in the same app; instead, you can take a look at the developer’s watch faces and can choose which one you want in your Galaxy Watch.

If we talk about changes, you will be able to change all the appearances, including the dial, colors, and design. But remember one thing, these changes can’t be made through the app, but you can make changes directly through the watch. For better results, all you can do is install the Pixel Watch watch face and make changes to it on your own. Resultantly, you can make your Galaxy Watch look exactly like Google Pixel Watch.

Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy Watch 7 is in an actively developing phase and is expected to introduce a new naming system for Galaxy smartwatch processors.
Initially, Samsung switched to WearOS with the Galaxy Watch 4, powered by the Exynos W920 chip. Since then, the giant has also changed the naming scheme for their smartwatch processors. The same chipset, ‘Exynos W920, carried over to the next Galaxy Watch 5 lineup.
The current Galaxy Watch 6 is powered by an upgraded chipset named the Exynos W930, and it is expected that this will carry over to the next-generation Galaxy Watch 7 series as well. Recent reports suggest that an Exynos chip, likely to be named W1000, will power the Galaxy Watch 7. Although this naming scheme could be suitable, the key point is that it would better convince consumers that the new chip is a major upgrade as compared to the previous chip.
Although the model number for this new iteration is yet to come into existence, and usually the simple word is just not a part of the Korean giant, it will be interesting to see what turn this report will take in the future..
On the other hand, previous leaks already revealed the forthcoming Galaxy Watch 7 could offer three variants, including standard, classic, and pro, with hints at monster battery life and more. It is also supposed to be launched at the Galaxy Unpacked event in early July 2024.
Île-de-France Mobilités is in the phase of modernizing transport tickets and is stepping up its efforts to dematerialize them.
This includes new ticket options, pricing, effortless ways to buy tickets online or directly by phone, and updating station equipment to make using these new options smoother. Île-de-France Mobilités dematerialized ticketing solutions are used more and more every month and are now the majority in use.
The aim behind this is just the dematerialization of ticketing and the generalization of this use, which has less environmental impact as compared to magnetic tickets.
Regarding this president of Île-de-France Mobilités and the Île-de-France Region, Valérie Pécresse stated, “The generalization of this service, in partnership with Samsung, is in line with our dematerialization policy initiated in 2016: making the lives of Ile-de-France users simpler, more practical, and more in tune with our times. We will continue to invest and increase our efforts in this direction.”
Back in November 2023, a few testers were able, during a developing phase, to use their Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 lineup as well as newer models to validate their transport tickets. The feedback was positive, highlighting simplicity, fluidity, and the speed of using the service.
Although, since 2019, the Korean giant has been a partner of Île-de-France Mobilités to provide solutions for dematerializing transport tickets to all Ile-de-France residents on their smartphones. Now users can use their Galaxy smartphone for public transport in Île-de-France; this includes validating tickets on a terminal and buying or even reloading them with Samsung Pay.
The two players are going further with this new deployment, which will permit you to buy tickets from a smartphone and validate them just with a flick of the wrist with a connected watch, even in the scenario where it is turned off. This step appears as a move forward to the modernization of Ile-de-France ticketing in a simple way, especially for scenarios when you get late.
