Stay Connected – No Matter Where Your Day Takes You

Galaxy Watch’s improved battery life of up to 80+(see below1) hours eliminates the need for daily charging and helps consumers keep up with their busy week. With a longer battery life, untethering from their smartphone has never been easier; The Galaxy Watch’s offer for a true standalone experience across devices through messaging, calls, mapping and music. Users can also start and end their day with morning and evening briefings to help stay on top of reminders, weather and their latest schedule.

Live a Balanced Life

Designed with wellness in mind, Galaxy Watch offers a true holistic health experience with its new stress management tracker(see below2), which automatically detects high levels of stress and offers breathing exercises to help keep users cetered and focused. In addition, a new advanced sleep tracker(see below3) monitors all levels of sleep, including REM cycles, to help users adjust sleeping habits and get the rest they need to take on their day.

With sleep and stress under control, Galaxy Watch also helps users achieve other health and wellness goals, including fitness. Galaxy Watch adds 21 new indoor exercises, tracking a total of 39 workouts that allow consumers to customize and change up their routines. Because balanced nutrition is as important as exercise, Galaxy Watch makes it easier than ever with intuitive calorie tracking and personalized alerts.

Flaunt a Stylish and Timeless Design

Galaxy Watch carries the legacy of Samsung’s smartwatches with its trademark circular, rotating bezel while embracing the digital look with Always On Display, in addition to improved usability. For the first time, Galaxy Watch features analog watch ticks and hourly chimes, and a depth effect that casts shadows defining every detail on the watch face for a traditional look and feel.
