Samsung is releasing two watches that are completely the same aside from the sizes, which are 46mm, and 42mm. Each watch comes with at least three colors. For the 46mm Its available in Black, Blue and Grey. The 42mm is available in purple, black, red, pink, grey and lime yellow. Both the watches are the exact same weight as the older models, according to Samsung. However, users have said that they feel lighter in comparison.
The watches are military graded and are 5 ATM Water resistant that allows you to swim with the watch on. The watches have Super AEO LED circular displays with a 360×360 resolution. The screen for the 46mm is about 1.46 m and the 42mm watch is 1.2’ case. The watches have a rotating bezel that allows you to navigate the OS. The feature only has two buttons. A back button that, when held down, can access the Samsung Pay option and a home button that will bring its user back to the home screen and, when held, can access the app drawer.
Each watch feature a sensor with a heart rate monitor that will monitor your steady heart rate. They also feature an accelerometer and a gyroscope for movement and step tracking, a GPS for route tracking and a Barometer for elevation measurements. The 46mm watch features a 472 miliAMP battery while the 42mm watch has a smaller 270 miliAMP battery. The watches have a Exynos wearable processor, ran with Tizon OS. The 46mm watch contains 4-6 days of battery life while the 42mm watch contains a 2-3 day battery life span.
The watches have 1.5 gigs of RAM and 4 gigs of internal storage. Because Samsung has continued their partnership with Spotify, users are able to download playlists to the watch’s internal storage and pair it with their headphones to leave their phone at home. Like many Samsung devices, the Samsung watches are very customizable to the users liking. The watches have tons of great new features such as Watch lock, Eject Water Function, Goodnight Mode and Screen capture.
Watch Lock will lock the watch while you swim to prevent the water from waking and manipulating the watch. Eject Water Function is a function that uses sound (sound waves) to eject or remove water from the watches speakers. Goodnight Mode allows its user to sleep in the watch to track sleeping patterns without waking the user with notifications. Screen capture is very similar to ScreenShot, it allows users to capture what is on the screen by holding the power button down and sliding the screen from left to right. The Samsung Watches are available for purchase.
With all these different and amazing new technologies coming out, its hard to tell what the next big thing will be. But leave it to Apple, Samsung and Google to figure it out and continue to fight for the best brand title.
