Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch looks great, but it’s definitely not all good news


Samsung’s next wearable device could launch in a few weeks, and if the latest leaked images prove to be true, the Galaxy Watch 3 certainly looks exciting. The images recently released online, by the ever trustworthy Evan Blass, show a device that features stunning styling and all-new digital faces that could make this the most attractive device Samsung has ever made.

Updated Tizen software could also make the device much more customizable with a new feature called ‘Informative Digital Edge’ that allows users to add things like date, heart rate, steps, and weather to the screen.

It also seems like Samsung fans will have plenty of options with the upcoming Galaxy Watch rumored to be available in Black Titanium, Black Stainless Steel, Silver and Bronze color schemes.

Other extras coming to the Galaxy Watch may include longer battery life, Gorilla Glass DX protection, a 1.4-inch AMOLED display plus the ability to take a cardiac monitoring ECG directly from your wrist and check blood pressure readings.

Samsung has begun rolling out this vital blood pressure update to its Watch Active 2 in Korea and is expected to roll out to more regions and devices in the coming months.

All of that sounds impressive, but all of this new technology and additional features could come at a high price with leaked details revealing that this could be the most expensive Galaxy Watch to date.

Evan Blass is once again behind the latest reveal with a post on his Twitter account showing all the expected Galaxy Watch 3 settings and the cost fans can afford.

According to Blass, the Watch 3 will cost between $ 400 and $ 600 (£ 320 – £ 480) depending on the model you buy.

If true, this is almost $ 100 more than the original cost of the Galaxy Watch when it launched in 2018.

It’s a pretty high price to pay and makes the watch almost as expensive as the £ 399 Apple Watch Series 5.

So when will we know more?

As the Blass saw, a launch could be imminent with the leaked photos, including a date on the device.

Although not yet confirmed, speculation is mounting that the new Galaxy Watch may launch on Wednesday, July 22.

The date in the image shows Wednesday the 22nd and the month this could be correct is July.
