The upcoming Galaxy Watch 6 series, scheduled for release next month, promises to be a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Galaxy Watch 5. While several noteworthy improvements are expected, one aspect that remains unchanged is the wireless charging speed.
Recently, the Galaxy Watch 6 series
obtained FCC approval, shedding light on some key details, including model
numbers for different variants of the watch. Two sizes of the Galaxy Watch 6,
namely SM-R930 and SM-R940, are anticipated, while the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic
is expected to come in two different sizes: SM-R935 and SM-R945.
The FCC listing also reveals that the
Galaxy Watch 6 series will feature Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and Wi-Fi support.
Notably, the wireless charging capability of the new series will peak at 10W,
which is the same as the previous Galaxy Watch 5. Although this means no
increase in charging speed, it is worth noting that it is double the wireless
charging speed of first-generation Wear OS smartwatches from Samsung.
Furthermore, compared to the Galaxy Watch 4, which offered 5W wireless
charging, the Galaxy Watch 6 series represents a notable improvement.
The Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6
Classic are expected to launch alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5. In a
move that will excite fans, the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic model is rumored to
reintroduce the iconic rotating bezel. Additionally, both watches will be
powered by the Exynos W980 processor, which boasts an enhanced CPU frequency.
Overall, the Galaxy Watch 6 series is
expected to deliver a range of impressive features and upgrades, even though
wireless charging speed remains consistent.
