Samsung’s next-gen Galaxy Watch 7 will probably get a snazzy new Exynos W940 chip،
Even though we're likely several months away from welcoming a new generation of high-end consumer smartwatches from industry heavyweights Apple, Samsung, and Google, credible rumors are circulating today for some reason in two of these highly anticipated devices.
While the The Pixel Watch 3 is expected to grow from one size to two to keep up with the flexibility of its Tier 1 rivals later this year, the Galaxy Watch 7 will allegedly contain an Exynos 5535 processor in an attempt to master both Google's next-generation Wear OS soldier and the Apple Watch Series 10.
If that number doesn't mean anything to you, perhaps the name Exynos W940 will tell you a little about what to expect from the Galaxy Watch 7 series in terms of raw power. Always nothing? Don't worry, because that's obviously what we're here for.
Note that last year's Galaxy Watch 6 and Watch 6 Classic use a Samsung-made Exynos W930 SoC, which naturally means that the Galaxy Watch 7 (and likely the Watch 7 Classic or Pro) will improve on the already impressive overall performance of their predecessors released in 2022.
Of course, it's unclear what kind of actual upgrade might be in store here, but a report from several months ago suggested that Samsung was working on a 3nm-based processor for its next big smartwatch. The Watch 6 series Exynos W930 is a 5-nanometer affair, so if all this speculation comes to fruition, future Galaxy Watch 7 owners could find themselves in a tough situation. major improved power and energy efficiency.
A faster smartwatch with better battery life would certainly help Samsung move closer to Apple on the global sales front, but obviously it's way too early to talk about it or even think about it… too much.
