This isn’t the first time we’ve seen these specs pop up for the upcoming Watch 6 series, which appeared for certification back in March. Capacities back then were the same, so it seems more and more likely that this is the case. Furthermore, these would be welcome improvements over the Watch 5 series and even going back to the Watch 4 Classic.
The Watch 5 contained a 284mAh battery on its 40mm variant, while the 44mm sported a 410mAh. The 2021 Watch 4 Classic featured a 247mAh and 361mAh battery for its different size variants.
The upcoming wearable series is rumored to feature batteries with “20% higher performance,” which might stem from the rumored Exynos chip for the Watch 6 series. Samsung’s next wearable processor recently appeared in a Bluetooth certification bearing the name Exynos W930. Rumor has it Samsung may be more interested in providing minor increments of improvements as those previous leaks stated we could see a 10% boost in performance. This could also mean better efficiency from the chipset.
Additionally, the Tweet states the Galaxy Watch 6 series will feature 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. This is pretty similar to the Galaxy Watch 5, which also delivered similar internal memory specifications, although the added RAM should help speed things along.
Recently, the internet was treated to a series of leaked Galaxy Watch 6 press renders showcasing the device’s full design, slimmer bezels on some models, and the return of the rotating bezel.
We’re approaching Samsung’s confirmed late July summer Unpacked event, where we will learn official details about the new Watch 6 series and the OEM’s next wave of foldables. Potential Galaxy Watch 6 consumers may also be interested in taking a gander at the rumored pricing for the new wearables.
If you’re a Samsung enjoyer, you’re going to want a Galaxy Watch 5 to go with your new phone. This seamless pairing adds the newly refined health and sleep sensors for the smartwatch so you can monitor your well-being day and night. With a vibrant display and 16GB of internal storage, the Watch 5 can keep you going and informed.
