Samsung Electronics unveiled its latest wearable devices "Galaxy Buds Live" and "Galaxy Watch 3" at the "Samsung Galaxy Unpack 2020" online on August 5 (Korea time).
The wireless earphone "Galaxy Buds Live," which offers a powerful sound experience in a completely new design, and the smartwatch "Galaxy Watch 3," which significantly strengthens health functions, help users manage their daily lives more efficiently, connect at all times and live healthy.
“Wearables are among the fastest-advancing technology sectors, and the pace of progress is only accelerating. In recent months, we’ve seen immense growth in the market as people turn to smartwatches and earbuds to help them thrive in the ‘Next Normal’”, said Dr. TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile Communications Business, Samsung Electronics. “Since introducing our first smartwatch just seven years ago, we have become a leader in wearable innovation. Today, we’re laser-focused on building on this momentum to offer new and differentiated experiences – combined with the bold design and advanced technology that our customers have come to expect.”
Galaxy Watch 3 boasts all the craftsmanship of a luxury timepiece, while being comfortable enough to wear all day. Galaxy Watch 3 will also be available in a titanium model that’s both durable and elegant.
Galaxy Watch 3 also features the popular rotating bezel from previous watch models, which merges form with function.
With just a turn of the bezel, you can easily toggle between widgets, open apps and scroll through notifications.
Compared to the original Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Watch 3 is 14% thinner, 8% smaller and 15% lighter — combined with a larger display. You can also customize your watch face to perfectly reflect your personal style.
With each new iteration, Galaxy Watch capabilities have expanded, and now, Galaxy Watch 3 will offer new experiences in health and wellness monitoring. The Blood oxygen (SpO2) feature will soon measure and track oxygen saturation over time, for fitness and wellness purposes.
Galaxy Watch 3 will also be home to the new Samsung Health Monitor app once launched, which will include blood pressure (BP) monitoring and electrocardiogram (ECG) readings in markets where these features have been authorized.
To ensure that help is never too far away in the event of a fall, Galaxy Watch 3 comes with a new feature that detects falls, which identifies a potential fall and can send an SOS notification to your chosen contacts.
Galaxy Buds Live defy conventional design — with one-of-a-kind aesthetics, they’re like nothing you’ve ever seen or worn before.
Samsung has reconfigured traditional earbud design, laying out internal components horizontally instead of vertically.
That way, the earbuds don’t protrude from your ears, providing a more natural appearance. This ergonomic, tip-less design conforms to the shape of your ear, making them comfortable enough to wear all-day. You can further customize your fit with two sizes of wingtips.
Galaxy Buds Live were engineered to bring your sound to life. Combining AKG’s sound expertise with Samsung’s legacy of hardware innovation, Galaxy Buds Live offer a truly immersive audio experience.
With a 12mm speaker and bass duct, the audio sounds deep and rich, allowing you to enjoy music the way the artist intended. With three microphones and a Voice Pickup Unit, your earbuds home in on your voice and ensure you always come through loud and clear on the phone.
These earbuds feature Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) for open type11, allowing you to tune out distractions like passing cars and loud laundry machines, while still being able to tune into important announcements and conversations.
Galaxy Buds Live offer a convenient and connected listening experience, compatible with a range of devices. Seamlessly switch between compatible devices — no disconnecting and reconnecting required. And when paired with the latest Galaxy devices, you can open your world to new possibilities.
Record crystal clear audio for your video on the Galaxy Note20 by using Galaxy Buds Live as a wireless microphone. Use ‘Game Mode’12 to reduce audio latency – with Galaxy Note20’s Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, you can enjoy a more immersive gaming experience.
