In the shared render, we can see that the Galaxy Watch 5 has very thick bezels, making the watch look ugly. Due to the thick bezels of the smartwatch, the display looks small. In addition to this, it showcases the three colors including Phantom Black, Sapphire Blue, and Pink Gold.

Furthermore, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro renders also reveals that there are two prominent side buttons on the right side of the smartwatch, first is a home button and a back button.
Previously, the placeholder images suggested that the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro will feature a more sporty look and design for the consumers, similar to the Galaxy Watch 4. Last year, Samsung Health’s update exposed the Galaxy Watch 4 models in placeholder images that became reality at the time of its official launch.

Samsung appears to be simplifying the naming scheme of the wearable Exynos chip. Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 7 is expected to be equipped with the first 3nm chipset, which would be called Exynos W1000.
The Galaxy Watch 7 might use Exynos W1000 chipset, claims SamInsider (via SamMobile). Samsung’s first Wear OS smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch 4, debuted Exynos W920, which also powers the Galaxy Watch 5.
Last year, the company introduced the Galaxy Watch 6, which features the new Exynos W930. Judging from the previous naming, it was assumed that the Watch 7 series would have an Exynos W940 processor.
However, the South Korean tech giant apparently decided to simplify its Exynos line. If the report is correct, Exynos W1000 will power the upcoming Wear OS smartwatches, the Galaxy Watch 7, Watch 7 Pro, and Watch 7 Classic.
