Work Towards a Better Night’s Sleep

Then, it will guide users through a four to a five-week coaching program that includes missions, checklists, sleep-related articles, meditation guidance, and regular reports to support users as they work towards improving their sleep quality.
When it comes to waking up refreshed, a peaceful and quiet environment is key to achieving a healthy rest as well. Galaxy Watch4 recognizes when users fall asleep and automatically turns off Samsung SmartThings enabled lights to help create better sleeping conditions.

Samsung is considering to launch an FE-branded Galaxy Z Flip 7 next year. The company reportedly entered a review of plans to introduce an affordable foldable phone this year. There is speculation that the rumored Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE might not debut this year.
According to TheElec, Samsung has been planning to launch the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE next year. It may be cheaper than the regular variant in favor of a downgraded display and processor. However, Samsung’s pricing strategy would be worth seeing for its first affordable Flip phone.
This year, the South Korean tech giant is expected to launch only two foldable phones. While there are no signs of a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra, the Fan Edition may also be canceled in review. Therefore, an FE lineup of foldable phones – Flip and Fold will likely join the segment in 2025.
Samsung could hold the next Galaxy Unpacked on July 10 in Paris. At the event, the company may not only launch new foldable phones but the Galaxy Watch 7 series and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro could also be launched. Well, Samsung hasn’t officially confirmed the event so far.
We are also hearing that the Exynos 2400 might not be employed in the Galaxy Z Flip 6 this year. The company has reportedly tested it but the chip has failed to offer satisfactory results. This means the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will also use Snapdragon chip internationally.
