Even though the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 series might still seem brand new, we’re probably already halfway to the next version. We haven’t heard much about the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 yet, that’s true. But there’s no doubt in our minds that something else will come after Wear OS. We have written down any new information we find below so you know what to expect on the next Galaxy Watch. Also, you can start making a list of things you want at any time.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 6
Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 6 series is likely to come out by the end of the year. We don’t know much about the smart wearable yet, but it should come out after the Galaxy Watch 5, which came out in August 2022. If the South Korean tech company does what it has always done, the Galaxy Watch 6 series could have a basic model and a more advanced model.

A new leak suggests that the Galaxy Watch 6 series may no longer have a flat screen. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 won’t have flat glass, according to a reliable source. Instead, it will have curved glass. The glass on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 is once again curved.
We now know that the glass isn’t flat, but that’s about all we know. So far, Samsung hasn’t said a lot about the “smart wearable.” Even though the company may have filed for a patent that would let it put a projector in some of its future Galaxy watches, it may not be in the Galaxy Watch 6.
The patent describes a smartwatch with a projection display on one side of the housing and a display area next to the housing that shows information. It could be used to copy the main screen or show more information, according to the report.
Design Of Samsung Galaxy Watch 6
The Galaxy Z Flip 5 and the Galaxy Z Fold 5 are likely to come out later this year, along with the Galaxy Watch 6 series. It looks like the company is making big changes to how all of these new devices look. For example, the hinge on foldable phones is now shaped like a teardrop, which makes the screen crease less obvious.
Even the next Galaxy Watch won’t have the same industrial look. A tip from Ice Universe (@UniverseIce) says that the Galaxy Watch 6’s glass will be curved. That’s different from the Galaxy Watch 5’s flat screen. If this is true, the Apple Watch and the Google Pixel Watch may have influenced Samsung. A phone with curved glass on the edges of the screen is more likely to get scratches, but it might also look cooler.
We don’t know much else about the Galaxy Watch 6, but we do know that Samsung is talking to Chinese display maker BOE about getting OLED panels from them. Most likely, the company will keep using a round OLED screen, like all of its previous Galaxy Watches. Samsung might use a newer chipset in the Galaxy Watch 6 after using the same Exynos W920 chipset for two years.
Features of Samsung Galaxy Watch 6
The Galaxy Watch 6’s specs haven’t been talked about much. It’s possible that the watch will have a new chipset to compete with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1, but Wear OS smartwatches usually stick with the same SoC for a few years. Samsung could keep using the same processor, since it works fine in the watches it already makes.
The Galaxy Watch 5 series has 16GB of storage space and 1.5GB of RAM. On the other hand, the Pixel Watch is better because it has 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. This is all happening on a very old chipset. If Samsung wants to stay competitive, it might need to match or even beat the Pixel Watch’s specs for better performance and more space for apps, music, and other things that can be downloaded.

We might already know something about the battery. Leaked photos of the batteries for the Galaxy Watch 6 show that the watches may have more storage space than their predecessors. The battery for the 40mm model is likely to be 300mAh, while the battery for the 44mm model will be 425mAh.
This means that the watches should be able to go at least a day without needing to be charged again. We don’t know yet how much power the battery in the Pro model has. We think the Galaxy Watch 6 series will have the same sensors as the Galaxy Watch 5 series. We don’t know about any new sensors or features yet.
Health Feature In Samsung Galaxy Watch 6
Samsung also has health tracking features that are only available on Galaxy phones for now. You have to use the Samsung Health Monitor app if you want to use ECG or blood pressure monitoring. You won’t be able to use these features if you don’t have a Samsung phone. We can see why Samsung might want to keep some features for its own family, but we hope the company will let everyone use it.
Release Date of Samsung Galaxy Watch 6
The Active 2 came out in September, but it was announced in August, along with the rest of the line-up. Based on when the company has released new models in the past, we expect the new ones to come out at the Samsung Unpacked event this summer. Most likely, the event will happen at the beginning of August, so the devices will be for sale by the end of the month. Samsung has a well-known way of making new products available. The only one that isn’t is the Galaxy Watch Active. It was announced in February 2019 and came out in March of that same year. Every other Galaxy Watch that was announced in August came out a few weeks later.
What Is The Price Of Samsung Galaxy Watch 6?
Pricing is hard to guess right now because of how things are. The Galaxy Watch 5 line came out last year. The basic model cost $279, and the Pro model, which only comes in one size, cost $449. For the LTE versions, each choice came with an extra cost. This generation’s 5 series started at about $30 more than the last generation.
On the one hand, Samsung probably won’t raise the price again this year. On the other hand, Samsung still has lower prices than its Cupertino competitor. Asking shoppers to pay more for a good wearable is not impossible. If Samsung makes enough changes, the new series might be worth a higher price.

Is There Gonna Be A Series of Samsung Galaxy Watch 6?
To be honest, it’s almost impossible that there won’t be a new Samsung smartwatch by 2023. Samsung started a huge wave of new ideas for smartwatches when it added Wear OS 3 to the Galaxy Watch 4 series. At the moment, the Galaxy Watch 5 series is still riding that wave. Even though other Wear OS-based wearables are getting better, Samsung will definitely release a new generation this summer to keep its own momentum going. It would be hard for the company to drop out of the race, especially since products like the Pixel Watch are trying to get new users.
Is There Any Pro Model for Galaxy Watch 6?
So far, there haven’t been many rumors about what the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 series will be like. It’s likely that Samsung will keep its two-pronged approach and give customers a choice. But the company hasn’t said whether it will bring back the Classic model or make a second Pro model.
