Samsung’s Galaxy Watch will tick away for days before needing a recharge

Launching in two sizes, with three colour options

Fancy a smartwatch that doesn’t really look like one? You could be looking at it in the shape of Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch, announced alongside the Galaxy Note 9 today. With its circular face and rotating design, there isn’t much giving away this ticker’s tricks, but don’t be be fooled. It’s 4G-ready, and sports a host of health and fitness features, including a tracker that monitors and helps you manage stress levels. It features an AMOLED touch display, tough-as-nails Gorilla DX+ glass, and water resistance. Best of all, Samsung is promising a battery that will last a presumably Apple Watch-beating “several days” before you run it down. Available in 42 and 46mm variants, and three colours – Rose Gold, Silver and Midnight Black – the Samsung Galaxy Watch will launch later this year, with pricing still under wraps.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
