Previously, it’s reported that Samsung developed the new SoC, Exynos W920, for wearables that will be paired with 1.5GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. However, another image suggests that both watches will feature two different models in terms of size and battery as well as sensors.
The main highlight of this colorful Galaxy Watch 4 series marketing material leak is that a render shows us a closer look at One UI Watch that is Samsung’s new wearable platform based on Google’s Wear OS 3. You can see the functionalities of the One UI Watch here:

Thanks to the One UI Watch’s Universal Gestures, Samsung Galaxy Watch models are suitable for everyone. The feature enhances accessibility and allows you to navigate without having to touch the display or the rotating bezel (or the virtual bezel) at all.
Users of Samsung Galaxy Watch can activate the Universal Gestures through the Accessibility sub-menu under Settings. The “make a fist” gesture selects an item while making a fist twice opens up the Action menu, or activates Universal gestures.

The pinch moves to the next highlighted item while a double pinch returns to highlight the previous item. The Action menu showcases different available actions based on the active app or menu. Interestingly, users having no disabilities would also find the Universal Gestures feature useful.
