We just got another hint that the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 is almost here
All being well, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 should be with us at some point during July – and if there were any doubts that Samsung‘s next flagship wearable is indeed coming soon, a new leak may have dismissed them for good.
As spotted by SamMobile, a Samsung wearable with the product code SM-L305U has just appeared on the Bluetooth SIG (Special Interest Group) database, as all Bluetooth-capable gadgets must do before they’re released to the public.
That code is thought to refer to the US version of the 40mm Galaxy Watch 7 with LTE. This doesn’t tell us very much about the watch, besides Bluetooth 5.3 LE support (as the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 had), it does indicate a launch is imminent.
Rumors have suggested Samsung will hold another Unpacked event in July 2024, ready to show off the Galaxy Z Fold 6, the Galaxy Z Flip 6, and the brand new Samsung Galaxy Ring, as well as the Galaxy Watch 7 series.
The rumors so far
We certainly haven’t been short of Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 rumors to date. The thinking is that we might get three models this year, for the first time: the Galaxy Watch 7, the Galaxy Watch 7 Classic, and possibly a cheaper model as well.
A significant chipset upgrade has been rumored for this year too, as well as a squarer design – a bit like the Apple Watch, then. There’s also been talk that sleep apnea detection will be added to the Galaxy Watch 7.
Other leaks point to improvements in battery life – always welcome when it comes to wearables of course – and so it looks like there are going to be plenty of reasons to choose these smartwatches over, say, Samsung’s new smart ring.
