Personalized guidance for a healthier life - day and night
TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience at Samsung Electronics, emphasized that the new watches offer advanced health monitoring tools. Furthermore, they should enable easy access to them directly from the wrist. The Galaxy Watch6 series supports users in optimizing their sleep and focuses on understanding individual sleep patterns, developing better habits and creating a sleep-friendly environment.
In addition to sleep monitoring, the Galaxy Watch6 series also provides detailed analysis of sleep metrics, including total sleep time, sleep cycle, wake times, and physical and mental recovery. A new sleep coaching system provides personalized tips and recommendations to improve sleep quality. The watches can also measure body composition and provide important physical data such as skeletal muscle, basal metabolic rate, body water and body fat percentage. Thanks to a partnership with Whisk, users receive personalized fitness and nutrition tips.
The Galaxy Watch6 series also has heart rate zone personalization features to set optimal running intensity levels. The watches monitor heart rate in the background, detect high or low heart rates, and even track skin temperature throughout the night to monitor a woman's menstrual cycle. Furthermore, the fall detection works both during sports and while sleeping and automatically alerts emergency numbers or previously selected contacts.
Refined design for every taste
The design of the Galaxy Watch6 series has been refined to suit everyone's taste. The watches offer a 20% larger display with higher resolution and brightness adjustment when the display is on for better visibility even in bright sunlight. The slimmer frame and thinner bezel emphasize the beauty of the design. The watches come in a variety of sizes and colors, and offer plenty of customization options for dials and straps.
