The Galaxy Watch3 is the latest smartwatch in town and it not only puts advanced health technology on your wrist but also does it with style.
Galaxy Watch3 Design
The watch boasts a design you will find on luxury watches and is made from materials such as stainless steel, titanium (select model), and high-quality leather.
The display is now bigger and the much-loved rotating bezel has been retained. Even with the larger screen, Samsung says the Galaxy Watch3 is 14% thinner, 8% smaller and 15% lighter than the first-gen Galaxy Watch.
The Galaxy Watch3 is available in two sizes – 41mm and 45mm. The latter will be available in Mystic Bronze and Mystic Silver while the bigger model comes in Mystic Black and Mystic Silver.

The Galaxy Watch3 45mm has a 1.4-inch display while the 41mm version has a 1.2-inch display. Both are Always-On displays with a resolution of 360 x 360 and Gorilla Glass DX protection. There are more than 80,000 watch faces to choose from in the Galaxy store and there are 40 different ways to personalize a watch face.
There is an Exynos 9110 dual-core processor clocked at 1.15GHz inside the watch along with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage. The watch runs Tizen based Wearable OS 5.5 and packs lots of features some of which, sadly, are region-specific.
The Galaxy Watch3 brings Blood Oxygen monitoring (Sp02) for measuring and tracking oxygen saturation. The watch will also come with a blood pressure monitor and electrocardiogram (ECG) monitor. Another feature Samsung has added is Fall Detection. Other features are Running Analysis, VO2 Max, sleep management, and a library of over 120 different video workouts.
