Galaxy Watch 6 Classic is 24% off right now
Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 6 is down to £304.99 at Amazon right now. That’s a £75 saving on the RRP of the Wear OS smartwatch.
The report says there’ll be three devices in this generation – the standard Galaxy Watch 7, Galaxy Watch Classic, and Galaxy Watch Ultra.
The report doesn’t offer any insight into the what the “Ultra” smartwatch will entail, but there have been rumours about a non-invasive blood sugar level tracker as a potential replacement for the unpleasant finger pricks for people with diabetes.
Samsung has alsowhisperedabout the prospect of a monitor for blood glucose levels, with a view to integrating the tech within its wearables. The company appears to be in anarms race with Appleover who manages to get the feature to market first, with both companies patenting technology.
Whether that would be an “Ultra” exclusive feature will be available within the more standard Galaxy Watch offerings remains to be seen.
