Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro specifications:

Display:

The size of the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is large and it is only available in 45mm. It features a 1.36-inch AMOLED display that offers a 450 x 450 pixels resolution and is made up of sapphire glass. So if you are someone whose hand suits a large watch, then you should definitely go for it.

Processor:

Samsung’s Exynos W920 processor powers the new wearable. This is the same chip that comes under the Galaxy Watch 4 series. On the Watch 5 Pro, this chipset is paired with 16GB of internal storage.

Battery:

The new smartwatch presents a significant change in battery life. It sports a 590mAh battery that is capable to last up to 80 hours on a single charge. Also, it supports 10W fast charging, which is a huge upgrade as the highest charging speed of the Galaxy watch was only 5W so far.

Software:

For the Galaxy Watch 5 series, the company has introduced a new feature-rich custom OS – Wear OS 3.5-based One UI Watch 4.5. It brings a bunch of new watch faces, a dual SIM feature, a new UI for the Contacts app, QWERTY layouts for the Samsung Keyboard, and much more.

Features:

The device comes with an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance. It supports NFC connectivity, GPS, and the same BioActive sensor used in its predecessor, featuring ECG and heart-rate sensors, a blood pressure sensor, and a BIA sensor.

Besides this, the watch also comes with awaited temperature measurement sensor, improved sleep tracking with coaching, and three new Health features including Route Workout, Turn-by-Turn Directions, and TrackBack.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro availability and price:

Samsung is offering two color variants for the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro wearables including Black Titanium and Grey Titanium. Its price starts at $449 for the Bluetooth version and $499 for the LTE version.

The pre-orders are already up on the official Samsung website and the sale will begin on August 26.

Apple US DOJ iphone monopoly

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a lawsuit against tech giant Apple, accusing the company of maintaining an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market. The DOJ accuses Apple of violating the Sherman Antitrust Act.

The suit claims Apple has restricted third-party app growth, limited cloud and game-streaming services, forced continued iPhone purchases for messaging, diminished non-Apple smartwatch functionality, and prevented third-party digital wallet use.

In a press conference, US Attorney General Merrick Garland highlighted issues such as the App Store’s fee system, degraded third-party accessory experiences, and relies heavily on Messages. The case, backed by 16 state Attorneys General, could have significant implications for Apple’s business practices and the broader tech industry.

The US DOJ said in a release about the suit:

Apple exercises its monopoly power to extract more money from consumers, developers, content creators, artists, publishers, small businesses, and merchants, among others.”

Apple also responded by defending its innovation and user-focused approach, warning that the lawsuit could hinder its ability to deliver the seamless technology integration users expect. Check the entire response of Apple below.

At Apple, we innovate every day to make technology people love — designing products that work seamlessly together, protect people’s privacy and security, and create a magical experience for our users. This lawsuit threatens who we are and the principles that set Apple products apart in fiercely competitive markets.

If successful, it would hinder our ability to create the kind of technology people expect from Apple — where hardware, software, and services intersect. It would also set a dangerous precedent, empowering the government to take a heavy hand in designing people’s technology. We believe this lawsuit is wrong on the facts and the law, and we will vigorously defend against it.”
