Galaxy Watch 7 Pro Leak Hints at Monster Battery Life
Samsung is actively gearing up to expand its Galaxy Watch family by introducing the next-generation smartwatch series, the Galaxy Watch 7, in early July 2024.
Samsung usually launches its new smartwatch at the Galaxy Unpacked event in the second half of the year, between late July and early August. It comes to light that this time Samsung doesn’t boost up the battery breath ratio. Previously, we reported that the next-generation Samsung Watch 7 series might consist of three variants, which include Standard, Classic, and Pro.
A recent report has revealed that the Galaxy Watch 7 series could have a similar structure based on information about the battery of the watch along with model number SM-L70x. It is expected that the battery life of the Galaxy Watch 7 Pro will feature a battery life the same as the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, and this is being speculated since the rumors are unveiling that the battery capacity of the forthcoming Galaxy Watch 7 Pro has a rated capacity of 578 mAh, which appears pretty close to the Watch 5 Pro that has 573 mAh.
Whereas the advertised typical battery capacity of 590 mAh would not be all that different from the Galaxy Watch 7 Pro, The metric mentioned here has also been certified in South Korea recently; however, the capacity is not mentioned.
However, we have not yet confirmed the battery capacity for the remaining two variants of the forthcoming Galaxy Watch 7, with model numbers SM-L30x and SM-L31x. Since three variants are expected from the upcoming Watch 7 series, one of these models has a significantly larger battery, most probably the “Pro” version.
Samsung has not officially revealed anything regarding the Watch 7 yet, so it’s quite possible “Pro” might not be the final name. And somehow it is expected that the Galaxy Watch 7 series will be the newer and upgraded version of the Galaxy Watch 5.
In the last few years, Google has been dedicatedly working to improve the WearOS platform, which aims to provide services to make the smartwatch experience better. However, to bring about the enhancement, the company is not dependent on major software updates, while many of them provide changes through new updates.
For instance, last month saw the global implementation of a new update to Google Maps for WearOS devices, which included the ability to synchronize 3D buildings and display directions on public transport.
According to the information, now Google Developer is to guarantee the user OS that it will provide a whole new express for the Google Map. It has provided some new features, including a new shortcut to facilitate access to the map.
With the latest version of Google Maps 11.124.0702.W, the company has introduced a new Google Maps replacement search button with the ‘Map’ button, which allows you to directly access the map view.
However, there is no important or majorly significant feature spotted in the update, but the developers of Mountain View Company are dedicatedly providing some innovation in the next update. To take advantage of the new feature, you just need to search for the update.
Samsung is all set to expand its Galaxy smartwatch area, but this time under the new title, Galaxy Watch Ultra.
Surely, the Korean giant will introduce a brand new Galaxy watch at the Galaxy Unpacked event, but it appears that the plan is to ditch the Watch 7 Pro for the Galaxy Watch Ultra.
Previously, we reported that this time Samsung could introduce three variants of the next-generation Galaxy Watch 7: Standard, Classic, and Pro. But now a recent report is claiming that Samsung might introduce the Watch Utra instead of the Watch 7 Pro.
Earlier, a larger battery of 578 mAh was reported for the forthcoming Galaxy Watch, along with the model number EB-BL705ABY. If the recent reports are to be believed, three distinct model numbers will come into existence for the upcoming Galaxy Watch Ultra, which are as follows: SM-L705U, SM-L705N, and SM-L705F.
These model numbers represent the US, Korea, and Global. The new Watch Utra will be officially launched in various regions. The Galaxy Watch FE will bring similar features to the Galaxy Watch 4, introduced back in 2021. This fan edition of the Galaxy Watch is expected to arrive in the coming months and will be available with particular models for the US, Korea, and other regions.
- SM-R866F, SM-R866U, and SM-R866N
Since the Korean giant is working on two different Galaxy Watch models, we are expecting some significant differences between the Watch Ultra and Watch FE. However, the brand has not revealed anything regarding both watches officially yet, but it is expected that the Watch Ultra could offer advanced sensors to provide more accurate GPS and workout activity tracking. It will be interesting to see what novelty these watches will bring.
The Korean brand ‘Samsung’ is actively working to expand its wearable smartwatch family by introducing a next-generation watch, the Galaxy Watch 7, which is expected to have a blood sugar monitoring feature.
Samsung is now appearing to introduce a new convenient functionality on the Galaxy smartwatch, as it may offer blood sugar monitoring with the Galaxy Watch 7. This is being speculated by a new report in South Korea.
We have already reported that Samsung’s next Galaxy Unpacked Event will be scheduled for July 10th, 2024, at which it will unveil the Galaxy Watch 7 and many other devices, including the Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6, and Galaxy Ring.
The Vice President and head of digital healthcare at Samsung Electronics, Hon. Pak, highlighted the brand’s work on achieving noninvasive blood sugar monitoring through its wearable devices early this year. Apart from this, he also pointed out that Samsung was putting in ‘ asignificant investment” to make them happen.
Pak recently met with the advisory board members of the Samsung Health platform at the Samsung Medical Center in Seoul to discuss blood sugar monitoring, diabetes, and the application of AI to Samsung Health. It is expected that the Korean giant will offer blood sugar monitoring for the upcoming Galaxy Watch 7 series.
However, the giant probably decided to classify the smartwatch as an electronic device instead of a medical device, largely due to regulatory considerations. It could also happen that this feature may be made available on the Samsung Galaxy Ring.
