Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra: what we know so far
Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 received the FCC certification recently. This revealed there will be 15W wireless charging support. This is a significant improvement over the Galaxy Watch which only had 10W charging speed. The smartwatch will come with Wi-Fi and optional LTE connectivity options.
Earlier reports suggested the Galaxy Watch 7 would come with a 3nm Exynos chip and is tipped to offer a 20 percent increase in power efficiency and performance gains over the Galaxy Watch 6. The base storage of the smartwatch will be bumped to 32GB.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra might be available only in a single 47mm size. There could be a 590mAh battery, which should offer impressive battery backup compared to the standard models. Rumours say there could be a Titanium (Grade 4) chassis and sapphire crystal glass display, which will support up to 3,00nits peak brightness.
The Ultra model could use 10ATM+ IP68 dust and water resistance. There might be a new Quick Button to perform certain tasks. The Ultra variant could come in cellular and Bluetooth-only models.
The Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra have received the BIS certification, suggesting the India launch is around the corner.
The Galaxy Watch Ultra wouldn’t be the only newcomer in Samsung’s Watch lineup this year, since they just announced a new Galaxy Watch FE variant.
