The Samsung Galaxy Watch series is a line of smartwatches manufactured, designed and produced by Samsung Electronics. The line features various health, fitness, and fashion related features and is integrated with Samsung's other products under the Samsung Galaxy brand. The series is the successor to the previous Samsung Gear watches.
The first smartwatch under this series, the Galaxy Watch, was released in August 2018.[1]
The Galaxy Watch series shares the circular form factor of the Samsung Gear S2 and S3, as a result much of the OS features are shared between the Gear S2 and S3 and the Galaxy Watch.
Operating system
For the original Galaxy Watch, the Watch Active and Active 2 and the Watch 3, Samsung used its in-house developed Tizen OS, which it previously used for the Samsung Gear series of watches.
