Battery life is also expected to be a significant highlight. The larger battery capacities in both models, particularly the 590mAh battery in the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra, aim to provide extended usage time between charges.
Integration with the broader Samsung ecosystem is another key expectation. The new watches are anticipated to work seamlessly with other Samsung devices, including the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 smartphones, as well as the Galaxy Buds3 headphones.
The Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch 7 Ultra have the potential to be a game-changer for Samsung in the smartwatch market.
