While the foldables will take centre stage at the Galaxy Unpacked on July 9, the Watch 8 series is reportedly set to bring major improvements over the current generation models

In terms of sensors, Samsung is said to equip the Galaxy Watch 8 series and the Watch Ultra 2 with an accelerometer, altimeter, gyroscope, light sensor, geomagnetic sensor, PPG sensor, ECG sensor, and a BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) sensor. All three models are also expected to support magnetic wireless charging.

Samsung is expected to introduce its Galaxy Watch 8 lineup at Unpacked on July 9. Earlier this year, Samsung dropped from 3rd to 4th place in global smartwatch sales. Sales in North America and Europe have been particularly hard hit.
