Samsung unveils Galaxy Watch5, Watch5 Pro with sapphire crystals, larger batteries
The new Samsung Galaxy Watch5 series, which focuses on health, fitness, and lifestyle, was unveiled by Samsung. Three models are available: a standard Watch5 in 40mm and 44mm, as well as a Watch5 Pro (45mm).
According to GSM Arena, Samsung has never before used a Sapphire Crystal display. It provides 60 per cent more scratch resistance and, surprisingly, is offered on all three models (instead of being limited to just the Pro). Additionally, the watches have MIL-STD-810H certification and are 5ATM (and IP68) water-resistant.
The 40mm Galaxy Watch5 has a 1.2" display, weighs 28.7g, and measures 39.3 x 40.4 x 9.8mm (396x396px). The 44mm watch's dimensions are 43.3 x 44.4 x 9.8mm and its weight is 33.5g. And finally, the Watch5 Pro weighs 46.5g and has dimensions of 45.4 x 45.4 x 10.5mm. Displays on the 44mm and Pro are 1.4". (450 x 450px).
There is an Always On Display mode for all three. However, none of these has a hardware rotating bezel (in case it wasn't obvious from the images). That is a classic item, and this generation doesn't have any classic watches (not yet, anyway).
The Galaxy Watch5 Pro is Samsung's most functional and robust watch to date. Thanks to improved Sapphire Crystal, a protruding bezel that shields the display, and a titanium chassis, it is more durable than even its non-Pro siblings. The sport band has a brand-new D buckle design with no holes that allow for seamless length adjustment.
The Pro's 590mAh battery is the largest of any Galaxy Watch. The standard watches also come with larger batteries, with 410mAh for the 44mm model and 284mAh for the 40mm model. 8 hours of battery life can be obtained with fast charging in only 8 minutes. The battery will increase to 45% if you have a half-hour to spare.
