Samsung Galaxy Watch 5: New Features You Should Know

The Galaxy Watch 5 is finally here, and it’s not just the looks that have changed. Here are three new features you can find on Samsung’s latest flagship smartwatch.

1. New and Improved BioActive Sensor

Introduced in the Galaxy Watch 4, Samsung’s premiere health tracking technology has made its way to the Galaxy Watch 5, with improvements galore. The BioActive Sensor is a single unique chip that is able to track your heart rate, blood oxygen level, and even your stress level. Now, with an increased surface area as well as a more direct contact with your skin, the Galaxy Watch 5 is able to track your health more accurately than ever before.

2. Sleep Scores and Body Composition

The Galaxy Watch 5 has cemented itself as one of the best smartwatches you can get for your health. With the Body Composition measurement tool, get a complete and detailed overview of your health, whilst also being provided with a tailored approach to your exercises and fitness routines.

Sleep Scores enable you to get better, healthier sleep, with features like snore detection and blood oxygen levels, so you can get accurate data on your sleeping pattern. And through the SmartThings integration, the smartwatch can control your lights, AC, and TV to ensure you have the best sleep possible.

3. Longer battery, stronger durability

Never be afraid of running out of battery or damaging your watch ever again. The Galaxy Watch 5 comes included with a 13% stronger battery compared to last year’s model and can provide 8 hours of sleep tracking with just 8 minutes of charging.

In addition to that, the Galaxy Watch 5 is also Samsung’s first smartwatch to utilise a Sapphire Crystal display, which offers a 60% harder outer layer, so it can survive even the harshest condition.
