so quick galaxy active 4 and galaxy watch 4 news rumors and leaks update for you today and i'm
going to be completely honest with you guys it is not looking good stay tuned to find out why
what's up guys welcome back to tech it easy so main focus of today is of course the galaxy active
4 and the galaxy watch 4. a little bit of new info has surfaced since my last update and like i said
it's not looking terribly great but before we get into that if you could quickly leave a cheeky like

so the galaxy active 4. i'm excited for it but not as excited as i once was and i want to start by
talking about that one feature we were all praying for and that is of course the non-invasive blood
glucose monitoring now this was a feature that was rumored to be coming to both the galaxy watch
4 and the active iv and now news has surfaced that it is actually being ditched by samsung
now is this something that we can get through a software update much like we did with the ecg and
blood pressure features on the galaxy watch three i'm doubtful i feel like if it was something they
could do through a software update it would be something that we'd already seen on the galaxy
watch 3 by now so yeah really sad news but as always take everything with a pinch of salt and i
really do truly hope i'm wrong on this one so the feature that we were all arguably getting pretty
hyped about has been ditched so what else has the galaxy active for and the galaxy watch for got
going for it battery life the galaxy watch 3 was pretty famous for its poor battery life and being
a channel that's purely focused on the galaxy watch for pretty much a year now i know that this
is a feature that has deterred and disappointed many of you so you would think that samsung would
have heard this and done something about it well you might very well be wrong there too i guessed
in my last galaxy active 4 and galaxy watch 4 news update that they would in fact do major
improvements to the battery life of both watches but new leaks and rumors have risen suggesting
that they will both have a similar battery life to the galaxy watch 3 and the previous active 2.
what a disappointment i'm probably still going to buy one though but seriously it's not all
doom and gloom as i said battery life is likely to be similar to the galaxy watch 3. not less
and in actual fact leaks of the active falls battery life suggests that they will be getting
a little bit more juice will it be enough to make a significant difference though i'm not too sure
but and this is a big but that does bring me on to my next point which may give you a little bit of
hope as i'm sure you're already aware google and samsung are making a baby or at least i hope they
are yeah the galaxy active iv and galaxy watchful as i'm sure you've already heard about is expected
to be shipping out with google's wear os and that means yes ditching tizen why did i say this might
give you some hope well i'm kind of hoping the move to wear os will be a little bit better on the
battery drain and i'm talking optimization here and when i said about samsung and google having a
baby i mean i'm thinking they've worked together a bit on this one to iron out some of the kinks
after all there must be a pretty valid reason for samsung to switch back to wear os when it is
common knowledge that tizen is probably better than google wear os just some food for thought
for you if you were a little bit worried about the move to wear os so what have we actually got left
to be excited for i guess really it leaves us with the design so i spoke about the potential color
variants coming to the galaxy watch 4 and how they'd mimic samsung's 2021 zed flip series colors
one would assume that the same if not more color options will be coming to the active four also
from the looks of the model numbers the active four will in fact be coming in two similar sizes
as before those being 40 millimeter and 42 millimeter so there's likely going to be no change
there but i have heard talk of having a completely flat screen as opposed to a curved rounded one i
for one think that is going to make it look a lot more modern and it's gonna help cut down
on the ball let me know your thoughts on that one though with all this in mind i'm not going
to mislead you it is looking like more of the same from samsung the only few features that i could
really think of that would make a huge difference to the watches now is having a fingerprint scanner
or indeed an under display camera but i am highly highly doubtful that that is gonna
happen and i feel like we probably would have heard some leaks or rumors about that by now
there is of course a move to wear os and i guess i am quite excited to see what they do with that but
is it enough to bring people from the galaxy watch three or even the first gen galaxy watch which
i still think is an excellent buy in 2021 yeah i'm not too sure but we'll see we'll see lastly as far
as the release date goes for the galaxy active 4 and galaxy watch 4 we can expect to see them being
launched alongside samsung's 2021 zeb flip series at their unpacked event and this is expected to
be dropping around end of july or early august so that's it for this week's quick galaxy watch 4 and
active 4 news roundup if anything else significant pops up i will be sure to do a video about it or
at least post something on my social media channel so make sure you follow me on them just before we
