One UI 6 Watch Arrives for Galaxy Watch 4
Samsung is rolling out its One UI 6 Watch update, based on Wear OS 5, to the Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic in Korea. This marks the third major OS update for these smartwatches, which were originally launched with Wear OS 3 and later updated to Wear OS 4. While more regions are expected to receive the update soon, it remains uncertain whether this will be the last major update for the Galaxy Watch 4 series. Samsung previously committed to "up to" four years of updates, suggesting that next year's potential Wear OS 5.1 update could be the final one.

This update underscores Samsung's continued support for older Galaxy Watch models, even as newer generations like the Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch FE receive their own Wear OS 5 updates.
