The new Galaxy Watch 6 series is expected to launch in July at the Unpacked event. Over the past few months, leaks have hinted at various upgrades in the new lineup, including improved battery life and the return of the fan-favorite bezel. Now, it appears that the Watch 6 series will also be equipped with a new chipset, as the Exynos W930 has made an early appearance on the Bluetooth SIG website.

Exynos W930 could offer 10% faster performance than W920

An Exynos chipset with model number S5E5515 has appeared on the Bluetooth SIG, a regulatory board for products equipped with Bluetooth. This chip, known as the Exynos W930, is a successor to Samsung’s Exynos W920, which was used in the Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 5. Previously referred to as the “W980,” the Exynos W930 is expected to provide a performance increase of approximately 10% for the upcoming Galaxy Watch 6 series.

The Exynos W930 chip could bring notable improvements to Samsung’s wearables. As per the listing, it supports Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi. Like its predecessor (the W920), the W920 will be manufactured using the advanced 5nm process. However, according to the certification, to achieve a comprehensive Bluetooth and Wi-Fi solution, the processor requires an additional RF chip.

Samsung could unveil its next generation of smartwatches, the Galaxy Watch 6, on July 26. The new watches will run on OneUI 5 Watch, based on Wear OS 4, and will bring back the rotating bezel that was a popular feature on previous Galaxy Watch models but was missing on the Watch 5 series.

The Galaxy Watch 6 family will have all the activity and health tracking features that are available in the Galaxy Watch 5 series, including heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and GPS.
