Wear OS Version is still 5 but at the top of those settings it says “One UI Version 6.0 Watch”

What do you mean by “Watch 8 has arrived”?

Phone Arena:
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 series is still some time away from its official announcement…The Galaxy Watch 8 series is expected to land around July 2025.

I got this update the other day on my watch 6, OS version still says 5 but UI version is 6.

Not seen a thing about the watch 8, if it is what’s in the picture then I’ll pass. That looks ugly!

If I am not mistaken, the next update to match the Galaxy watch 8 will bring us One UI version 7 and Wear OS 6. That is if our watches qualify for both or either of them. I’m pretty sure my 7 Ultra and 6 Classic will, but I’m not sure about my 5 Pro.

“If our watches qualify for either of them.”

This is a big concern of mine for facer going forward especially given the press release last week.

It seems like a design from 10 years ago, when you compare it with the clean, modern design of the Watch 6, it looks a very retrograde step.

They make it Squareish to accomodate a Bigger Cell but end up making is Squggly .

I wonder how many people are going to pay attention to their watch telling them what to eat.

LOL, I was really surprised when I’ve noticed that my employee drinks water when watch tells him to drink.
So, my guess is: many, many people.

Six million years of human evolution vs. a watch app and watch wins… :thinking:

I know that is possible, but I’ve never had a need for electronics to remind me to drink fluids. :laughing:

If you want an accurate calorie count the app also wants to know what you have eaten in detail .

Did you get a New One ? I got my GW4 second user and it was starting to need 2 charges a day due to the development syncing . I got a second user GW5Pro . The raised Bezel is a brilliant Idea . My wife has an FE and the lense Edge is very vulnerable . We put a new temperd glass on regularly . The raised bezel on mine is getting quite rugged looking . GW5pro gets my Vote .

Yes - new, boxed and sealed- ok, i got it a few month’s back now from a shop adverising on Google. Titanium grey - love it 2 1/2 days battery.
I was thinking about getting a bezel for it but I don’t like the idea of glueing it on. A local electrical chain store was also selling them as end of line, but the online shop was cheaper still.
