Galaxy Watch 3 Rotating Bezel, Blood Pressure Monitoring and OLEDs
June 21, 2020
Samsung’s upcoming smartwatch — the Galaxy Watch 3. The Galaxy Watch will keep the physical rotating bezel and include ECG and blood pressure monitoring and skip the Galaxy Watch 2 moniker and jump straight to Galaxy Watch 3. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 was spotted in Samsung’s Galaxy Wearable app, alongside the bean-shaped Galaxy Buds. And, most recently, a leak revealed a few key specifications about the wearable, including the battery size, dimensions, and more. Now, a SAR certification of the Galaxy Watch 3 has surfaced online, giving us our first look at the upcoming smartwatch. The images were recently shared in a post on South Korean platform Naver and they showcase two slightly different designs. As you can see in the attached images, the Galaxy Watch on the left (model number SM-R840) features a toothed bezel around the circular dial, much like the original Samsung Galaxy Watch. The watch has two buttons on the right and minute markings all around the watch face.
Whereas, the Galaxy Watch on the right (model number SM-R850) has a smooth bezel. Both variants, however, don’t feature any markings on the bezels. The other design elements, including the buttons, minute markings, and metal body, remain the same. The listing also reveals that the two Galaxy Watch 3 variants have different SAR values, with the SM-R850 certified with a SAR value 0.365 W/kg higher than the SM-R840 model. Samsung is expected to officially unveil the new Galaxy Watch 3 during a “virtual” Samsung Unpacked event in August.
