The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 will have some cool gesture tracking controls to activate various functions along with its rotating bezels.
Sources informed Gizmodo about the gesture controls and told him that Samsung has yet to decide on the name of the Galaxy Watch 3. That could suggest that Samsung may be looking for a new brand to separate its next smart watch from the likes of Samsung. Galaxy Watch Active 2.
Gesture controls seem a little strange. The first will see Galaxy Watch 3 users raise their hands to activate Bixby, which could be an easier way to activate Samsung’s virtual assistant than to bark “hey Bixby” at your smartwatch as if it were an accessory from a movie. Science fiction.
Then there is the dumb call gesture, which involves making a fist and waving it up and down. Depending on where you live, this could create some embarrassing situations for Galaxy Watch 3 users.
The Gizmodo report also highlighted other features for the Galaxy Watch 3, such as fall detection that will trigger an emergency call and a text message to share the victim’s current location. And he also highlighted how Samsung’s next smartwatch will have a heart and blood pressure monitor, as well as an ECG sensor, as seen on the Galaxy Watch Active 2.
Plus, the Galaxy Watch 3 will come with “one-click” music controls, smart responses, camera controls for your phone, and Bluetooth disconnect alerts. Enhanced fitness tracking features will also be included in the mix, such as real-time feedback on your career.
According to Gizmodo, the Galaxy Watch 3 will launch on August 5 and will debut alongside the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G.
All in all, the Galaxy Watch 3 is set to be an interesting smartwatch, especially since it is expected to retrieve the rotating bezel found in previous Samsung smartwatches. Nine Galaxy Watch 3 configurations are expected and are expected to cost between $ 400 and $ 600.
We’ll have to wait a month or so to see if the Galaxy Watch 3 can take on the Apple Watch 5 and pose an initial challenge to the Apple Watch 6. But so far it looks like a strong Samsung smartwatch.
