The report indicates that Galaxy Watch X would offer up to 100 hours of battery life. Whereas no detail about price is unveiled, the company anticipates that the Galaxy Watch X would be expensive compared to the company’s current prices.
The Galaxy Watch X is expected to have a new square-shaped frame, a third circular button and an arrangement of health sensors.
It will purportedly hold the rotating bezels and will boast a 1.5-inch circular display. The smartwatch is claimed to measure a size of 47 x 47.4 x 16.4mm.
