Samsung is rumored to bring a rectangular Galaxy Watch, Watch 7 Pro or Ultra, and Galaxy Ring later this year. In a recent press release, the company shared a sneak peek at its wearable revolution, indicating new form factors and hardware upgrades.

According to Samsung’s press release, changes in its wearable strategy are likely. Galaxy Ring, which was unveiled earlier this year was mentioned in the release, whereas there were hints about some upgrades that were rumored in the recent past.

Rectangular form factor?

It was rumored that the company will bring back the rectangular design to its Galaxy Watch this year. With the Galaxy Watch 7, Samsung is also rumored to bring a third variant, probably the Pro or Ultra. Hence, a rectangular design with the additional variant might debut.

For its wearable segment, Samsung noted that it will “strive to meet the demand for upgrades through the launch of new premium models.” The additional variant coming this year will likely offer longer battery life, more advanced sensors, and probably a 3nm chipset.

The new 3nm-based Exynos wearable SoC might power the entire Watch 7 lineup. Samsung’s System LSI will focus on “preparing to ship products based on advanced technologies for new wearables”. The 3nm chip may have 50% more power efficiency than the previous generation.

Sensor-related advancement might mean non-invasive Blood Sugar monitoring. The company recently revealed that AI would unlock painless sugar monitoring. The industry expects that the Watch 7 (or at least the most premium variant) will debut this feature.

Samsung may announce the release of the Galaxy Ring at July Unpacked.
