we've done several videos now on samsung's next big smartwatch now though it's time to consolidate
all the information we have on the upcoming galaxy watch 4 and put it into one video on top of that
though there is actually some new information out that does suggest the rotating bezel
might not be going after all so if you were worried about that stay tuned and pay attention
what's up guys welcome back to tech it easy more updates on the upcoming galaxy watch 4 today
regarding the rotating bezel design changes price release date and more before we jump into
that though if you could quickly leave a like subscribe to the channel check out the discord
server and take a look at our brand new channel teezy's top 5 that would be awesome links down below
so i've come to realize that i'm not the only one who's been slightly disheartened by the
current circulating leaks of the galaxy watch 4. what we've seen so far better resembles what
we would expect the galaxy active 4 to look like but if we take a look at the leaked model numbers
they actually suggest that there will be several variants of the galaxy watch 4. a classic version
and then what i'd assume to be a sporty version now new vendors of the galaxy watch 4 classic have
popped up showing off the rotating bezel now they are leaked so do take them with a pinch of salt
but i personally think samsung will continue the bezel as is one of the features that made the
galaxy watch 3 stand out so much and judging by how upset you all were about the potential news
that the galaxy watches rotating bezel was not returning i wouldn't expect samsung to make such
a drastic move anyway if you do want to take a closer look at the current leaked renders do
head over to our discord server and check out the galaxy watch 4 leaks channel and get involved with
the conversation and share any new information that you might have before we move on to the next
topic there are a few more design leaks and other potential changes i just want to quickly go over
so now there is actually three different size options that have popped up those being 42
millimeter 44 millimeter and 46 millimeter these could suggest that there will be a significant
difference between the watch 4 and the classic watch 4. on top of that we have also confirmed
50 meter water resistance and military standard 810g certification we also have three color
options for the galaxy watch 4 classic those being gray black and white they could be a
refreshing change from what we've seen in the past so that was some good news to kick the episode off
but we should talk about whether or not support is going to continue for your older samsung devices
whether it be a first-gen galaxy watch or the galaxy watch 3 and also your older wear os devices
so if you missed my samsung mwc event roundup last week samsung actually stated that older devices
would get three years of support from release now that means that the galaxy watch 3 should get at
least two years more of support but what that means for older galaxy watch devices i'm not too
sure personally i think the first gen galaxy watch is still a killer deal right now but if it's not
going to get the update i'm not too sure what's going to happen to it when the galaxy watch 4
is in fact released later next month as for older wear os devices some smart watches such as the
brand new tic watch e3 the tick watch pro 3 and the fossil gen 5 have all been confirmed to be
able to support the new wear os 3.0 update why are older where os devices getting priority over tizen
devices well as i said in my last video wear os users will simply be updating their software ties
and users will be moving to a whole new os and that just isn't really possible especially for a
smartwatch wear os in general will bring some good things to the galaxy watch for though an example
would be the longer battery life samsung stated at nwc last week and i quote you can track activity
through the day and night with plenty left over for the following day that to me suggests a
minimum of 36 hours possibly stretched beyond the 48 hour mark for battery life that fixes the huge
flaw in the galaxy watch 3 for us samsung also confirmed that they will be running one ui over
the top of wear os 3.0 and it will mimic that of one ui on your smartphone so you should be seeing
some similarities between your smartwatch and smartphone giving you a more seamless experience
honestly myself and many others were all very skeptical about the move to a whole new operating
system but where os is actually sounding really promising at the moment with the assurance of
performance upgrades improvements to battery life and the potential of fitbit tracking features
future wear os devices like the galaxy watch 4 could really dominate the market
if you missed it in a previous video the smartwatch market is due for a huge shake-up
with google buying fitbit and samsung moving to wear os google will go from dominating less than
four percent of the market to as much as 16 of the market with the debut of wear os 3.0 still
trailing behind apple but the walls are really closing in and if google can pull this off it's
going to be absolutely huge and could encourage other brands to adopt wear os in terms of release
date we can expect an official announcement at samsung's unpacked event on the 3rd of august
shortly followed by the official release of the galaxy watch 4 watch 4 classic and the active
4. so actually we're pretty much bang on a month away from everything coming out in the open i'm
really seeing what samsung's got installed for us in terms of price we have nothing set in stone yet
but at a guess i'd expect the galaxy watch for classic to be the more expensive version mimicking
prices of last year's galaxy wars 3 and then the normal galaxy watch 4 or the sportier version
coming in a little bit lower but that is all speculation for now so those are all the really
important bits that we know about the galaxy watch 4 galaxy active 4 and the galaxy watch 4 classic
as of yet i will of course keep you updated if anything else significant pops up
