The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Watch8 series is expected to adopt a squircle body design, similar to the Galaxy Watch Ultra. The series will include two sizes, with the Watch8 Classic featuring a rotating bezel in a single size variant.
Data extracted from the One UI 8 Watch firmware for the Galaxy Watch8 Classic reveals details of the new design. Images display the squircle shape of the watch bodies, maintaining a circular screen like the Galaxy Watch Ultra. This design choice will be consistent across the Watch8 lineup.
Additional features for the Galaxy Watch8 Classic may include a Quick Button and extended vibration pattern support. While the presence of a rotating bezel remains uncertain, the new series will launch with One UI 8 Watch, introducing innovative features such as the Now Bar, randomized watch faces, battery protection options, and a new Shortcuts app for improved user experience.
Overall, the Galaxy Watch8 series promises a blend of sleek design and enhanced functionality for users.
