Incorporating the groundbreaking hardware performance and advanced health and fitness monitoring features[2] of Galaxy Watch, the Galaxy Watch FE features a stylish design with durability. This new smartwatch is ideal for those looking to begin their journey to improve their overall wellness with comprehensive insights.
“At Samsung, we strive to bring health and fitness monitoring capabilities to as many people around the world as possible, helping them to make the changes needed to improve their wellness daily and help them reach their goals,” said Junho Park, VP and Head of the Galaxy Ecosystem Product Planning Team, MX Business at Samsung Electronics. “We’re excited to add the new Galaxy Watch FE to our wearables portfolio, offering more people access to personalised health insights that empower them to be motivated and stay healthier day and night.”
The Galaxy Watch FE, available in a size of 40mm, offers a refreshed look and feel based on the iconic design of the Galaxy Watch series. It comes in three colors – Black, Pink Gold and Silver – with new watch bands[3] featuring distinct blue and orange stitching, enhancing the design and providing a stylish device that complements any look. In addition, Galaxy Watch FE offers a variety of new watch faces that allow users to customise their watch, while the one-click band also makes it easy to switch the band to mix and match to meet their style. Galaxy FE features a Sapphire Crystal glass, offering superior durability, which provides users with protection against scratches during day-to-day use.
Equipped with Samsung’s advanced BioActive Sensor, Galaxy Watch FE provides an array of powerful fitness and wellness functions that deliver personalised and actionable tips around the clock. To support better sleep for a good start to each day, Galaxy Watch FE offers a variety of advanced sleep features[4], from monitoring sleep patterns to sleep coaching[5] and helping to create a sleep-friendly environment[6]. Plus, users can monitor their holistic heart health with a pack of heart health monitoring features. Galaxy Watch FE offers HR Alert to detect abnormally high or low heart rates and Irregular Heart Rhythm Notification (IHRN)[7] feature to proactively monitor heart rhythms suggestive of atrial fibrillation (Afib). In addition, users can get deeper understanding of their heart health by monitoring Blood Pressure[8] and ECG[9].
Users can track more than 100 different workouts along with their progress right from their wrist. For runners, advanced running analysis helps users not only analyse overall performance to maximise efficiency but can also provide insights and guidance to help prevent injury so they can keep moving toward their goals. For a more optimal running experience, Personalized Heart Rate Zone[10] helps users to set their own goals based on their physical capabilities.
Galaxy Watch FE helps users achieve their health goals and stay motivated. Body Composition[11] provides comprehensive body and fitness data as indicators to track progress. In addition, users can receive motivational messages throughout their wellness journey to keep improving.
As with every Galaxy Watch series, the FE offers seamless connected experiences between Galaxy devices. Users can quickly and easily locate their phone when disconnected from their Watch with Find My Phone[13]. Remotely control your connected Samsung smartphone camera with Camera Controller[14] to mode switch, change angle or zoom right from the wrist.
