Rumours suggest Samsung might remove the rotating bezel with the Galaxy Watch 5-series launch. The preview image gave a closer look at the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro’s design, which seems akin to the Galaxy Watch 5’s body language. It packs a sleeker and sportier design, without being a traditional mechanical watch. It seems like the bezel of the Watch 5-series is fixed, meaning no physical rotation like the older Galaxy Watch series.

Separately, a Reddit user has also shared a screenshot of the Samsung Health app that reveals a temperature sensor. It shows a toggle for ‘Skin temperature during sleep’. This feature will allow users to track skin temperature during the sleep cycle. It seems like the Galaxy Watch 5-series will finally get the long-awaited temperature sensor.

The Galaxy Watch 5 is rumoured to arrive in two sizes: 40mm and 42mm. However, the Galaxy Watch Pro is said to come in just one size. The Pro’s body could be made of titanium, and the screen could be sapphire. A 572mAh battery is said to power the package. Samsung hasn’t made any public statements about the Galaxy Watch 5-series. The new Galaxy Watch 5 series has bagged the BIS certificate and is expected to debut in August.
