Samsung today announced the Galaxy Watch5 and Galaxy Watch5 Pro, which will shape health and wellness habits with intuitive insights, advanced features, and even more powerful capabilities. The Galaxy Watch5 improves on features that consumers rely on every day, while the Galaxy Watch5 Pro, the newest addition to the Galaxy Watch lineup, is Samsung’s most durable and feature-packed watch yet. These new devices are a promise to users that their goals and milestones can be met, and the Galaxy Watch5 and Galaxy Watch5 Pro are here to help.
We’re dedicated to giving our Galaxy Watch community the tools, data and resources needed to not only understand their overall health and wellness better, but to coach them on their journey,” said Dr. TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “With Samsung’s groundbreaking BioActive Sensor, we’re empowering users with the most complete picture of their health-related insights yet.”
Cutting-edge Sensor Technology to Better Understand You
With a growing desire to better understand and act on individual health goals, Samsung has set out to provide users with in-depth monitoring and practical data to help them along their health and wellness journey. Samsung’s unique BioActive Sensor powers the next era of digital health monitoring in the Galaxy Watch5. The BioActive Sensor, which was first introduced on the Galaxy Watch4 series, uses a single unique chip that combines two powerful health sensors – Optical Heart Rate and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis – to deliver extensive readings such as heart rate, blood oxygen level, and even stress level. With a larger surface area and more direct contact with your wrist, the Galaxy Watch5 now tracks health metrics more accurately than the Galaxy Watch4.
Holistic Health Insights to Enhance Everyone’s Wellness Journey
Galaxy Watch5 is designed for everyday victories and provides a comprehensive end-to-end experience that extends beyond fitness activities and into the post-workout, rest, and recovery process. The Body Composition measurement tool provides a comprehensive picture of the user’s overall health, allowing them to set goals, guide them through personalised workouts, and track progress. When it’s time to rest, the Galaxy Watch5 series provides users with recovery data, such as post-cardio heart rate after an intense workout and customised water consumption recommendations based on sweat loss.
A good night’s sleep is essential for wellness, which is why we’re assisting users in getting a better night’s sleep. Understand sleep patterns with Sleep Scores, which monitor sleep stages, snore detection, and blood oxygen levels. Improve your sleeping habits with advanced Sleep Coaching, which provides a month-long guided programme. Through SmartThings integration, the Galaxy Watch5 automatically adjusts connected lights, AC units, and TVs to predetermined sleep settings. Users can rest easy knowing that the improved fall detection will notify an emergency contact if you or a loved one stumbles at home or falls out of bed.
There’s no need to worry about your watch running out of juice or getting damaged in rough terrain; the Galaxy Watch5 has a 13% larger battery and can track eight hours of sleep in just eight minutes of charging, which is 30% faster than the Galaxy Watch4. The Galaxy Watch5 is protected by an additional layer of durability. This year, we’ve included our first smartwatch display with a Sapphire Crystal display, which has a 60% harder outer layer, ensuring that your watch is reliable in everyday use. Furthermore, One UI Watch4.5 provides a more complete typing experience, an easier way to make calls, and a slew of new accessibility features that make the Galaxy Watch more intuitive.
Galaxy Watch5 Pro, More Features and Greater Durability for the Outdoor Enthusiast
The Galaxy Watch5 Pro is the newest addition to the Galaxy Watch portfolio, designed for those who enjoy being outside. Watch5 Pro is ready for any adventure, from hiking to cycling and beyond, thanks to its premium materials. It has an enhanced Sapphire Crystal that is more resistant to wear and tear, as well as a durable titanium casing that protects the display with a protruded bezel design.
The Galaxy Watch5 Pro also comes with an all-new D-Buckle Sport Band that combines rugged durability with a sleek and clean fit.
Built strong, and built to last, Galaxy Watch5 Pro has the largest battery in a Galaxy Watch. It’s 60% larger than Galaxy Watch4, which is key to keeping up with you while you conquer a new route. Take advantage of GPX, that’s available for the first time on a Galaxy Watch. Head out on a hike and record and share it with fellow trail-lovers on the Samsung Health app with Route Workout. You can also download hiking and cycling routes as you practice for your next race or look to mix up your routine. As you hike or cycle, keep your eyes on the path and away from the map with intuitive Turn-by-turn directions. When you’re ready to head home, Galaxy Watch5 Pro will get you there easily with the Track back feature that takes you back the way you came.
