Wear OS watches keep getting better. Find out what we expect from the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6, plus our wishlist of features.
While the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 series may still seem like a fresh new wearable, we’re likely already halfway to the next iteration. Sure, rumors about a Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 have been sparse so far. However, there’s no doubt in our minds that the current Wear OS juggernaut has a follow-up on the way. We’ll keep track of any details we hear below so you can stay abreast of what you might expect to see on the next Galaxy Watch. Plus, it’s never too early to start dreaming up a wish list.
Will there be Galaxy Watch 6 series?
To be blunt, there’s almost no way we won’t see a new Samsung smartwatch in 2023. Samsung launched a massive wave of smartwatch innovations when the Galaxy Watch 4 series introduced Wear OS 3. The Galaxy Watch 5 series currently still rides that swell. While plenty of other Wear OS-based wearables are making strides, there’s no doubt Samsung will launch a new generation this summer to keep up its own momentum. The company would be hard-pressed to abandon the race, especially with devices like the Pixel Watch gunning for a new user base.
Will there be a Galaxy Watch 6 Pro model? This question is a bit trickier. There haven’t been many rumors about what we can expect from the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 series yet. It’s very likely Samsung will stick with its two-prong approach and offer shoppers variety. However, will the company return to the Classic model or pump out a second version of the Pro moniker? If our Galaxy Watch 5 Pro review is any indication, the latter proved a very successful pivot. We’ll keep our ears out for rumors in the coming months.
When is the Galaxy Watch 6 release date?
Samsung has a well-established pattern for product releases.
