Samsung is gearing up to launch a new smartwatch in 2022. The upcoming watch will be the successor of the current-gen Galaxy Watch 4 series which is one of the best smart wearable devices available in the market right now.
Last week, a report emerged suggesting that the upcoming Galaxy Watch 5 will have a slightly bigger battery at 276mAh capacity compared to the current 247mAh battery on the Galaxy Watch 4.
Now, a new certification published by Safty Korea (via GSMArena) shows that the leaks were indeed accurate. The certifications reveal that the Galaxy Watch5 40 mm (EB-BR900ABY) will have a 276 mAh battery. On the other hand, The larger Watch5 44 mm (EB-BR910ABY) will have a 397 mAh battery, up from 361 mAh on the current generation smartwatch.
Other than that, previous rumors state that Samsung is planning to include some health-related features in the next-gen wearables. These are said to include a sensor to accurately measure the body temperature, helping users identify viral symptoms and treat colds. Although users should get a marginal increase in battery life with the new features turned off.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 is expected to enter the mass production phase in the third quarter of this year. At this time, there’s no information available about the launch timeline or availability of the device, but if we are to go by the previous launches, then the upcoming smartwatches from Samsung could launch sometime around August this year.
