Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 could have some useful health features

 

Our smartwatches come with a bunch of health features. This includes heart rate monitoring, sleep monitoring, SpO2 monitoring, an ECG monitor, and more. But if you're hoping for more, then maybe you should wait for the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, especially if health features are important to you in a smartwatch.

 

According to a report from Android Authority in an APK teardown of the Samsung Health app. These strings suggest that these could be new health features that could make its way onto the Galaxy Watch 7. We're talking about features like an Advanced Glycation Endproduct (AGE) index.

 

For those unfamiliar, AGEs are what medical professionals believe play a critical role in the development of diseases that are related to age. This includes diseases like diabetes, heart attacks, and stroke. The code suggests that Samsung is partnering with Diagnoptics to develop this feature.

 

As to how Samsung plans to make this work with the Galaxy Watch 7, some researchers have found that AGEs have fluorescence that makes it easier to measure. This could be done through the heart rate monitor which emits light, offering users a non-invasive way of measuring.

 

This isn't to say it will be 100% accurate. Instead, it could provide users with a snapshot of their health and they can seek out professional medical help or a second opinion for a more accurate diagnosis. Samsung will announce the Galaxy Watch 7 at an event on the 10th of July.


Samsung brings Galaxy AI to its wearables for better health monitoring

 

Following the release of Galaxy AI for its smartphones, Samsung has since announced that they will be expanding the availability of its AI by bringing it to its wearables. The company had previously confirmed that Galaxy AI will be coming to its smartwatches, but it looks like they are getting ready to launch the beta next month.

 

According to Samsung, they will be combining Galaxy AI with Samsung Health. One of the benefits of this integration is a better understanding of your health. For example, there is a new Energy Score feature that will provide users with better insight of their daily condition. This analyzes your health metrics like average sleep time, sleep time consistency, sleep/wake time, sleeping heart rate, and so on. It will also be able to provide users with Wellness Tips by offering guidance to help achieve your goals.

Samsung is also expected to apply its AI to its sleep algorithm. This should result in a more detailed analysis of your sleep quality and patterns. If you find yourself not having a good night's rest, looking at these details could help you figure out a way to address the issue, or maybe seek out professional help if necessary.

 

There are also new features aimed at those who use their Samsung wearables for fitness. There will be new Aerobic Threshold (AT) / Anaerobic Threshold (AnT) Heart Rate Zone metrics to analyze your performance. It is interesting to see Samsung bring its Galaxy AI to its wearables, but we'll have to wait and see how useful it really will be.

 

These new AI tools and features will make its way in the next One UI Watch update later this year. Samsung will launch a beta program this June for a limited number of Galaxy Watch users.


Leak reveals that ordering your Galaxy Ring will be a snap if you know one piece of personal info

 

A post from Hall of Fame leaker Evan Blass reveals that Samsung will offer consumers two different ways to order the Galaxy Ring. If you know your ring size, you will be able to order the new wearable (which will be available in nine different sizes) by choosing your ring size and ordering the device. The leak, which appears to show the official ordering process that will appear on the Samsung website, then says, "You'll get your Galaxy Ring delivered right away, in general process."

 

If you don't know your ring size, the aforementioned two steps turn into four. First, you will order the Galaxy Ring using the 'I don't know my size' option. Samsung will ship you a Sizing Kit. Samsung adds that its sample rings are based on U.S. standard sizing. You'll use these sample rings to determine your ring size. Next, confirm your ring size on the 'My Order' page. You'll get an email that will confirm your ring size. The last step says, "Your best-fit Galaxy Ring will be finally delivered!"

If you're planning on purchasing a Galaxy Ring, you might want to have your ring size determined in advance so you can avoid waiting for Samsung to ship you its Sizing Kit. The Galaxy Ring will be unveiled during Samsung's second Unpacked event of the year which will be held in Paris on July 10th. The Summer Olympics will begin in Paris a little more than two weeks later and Samsung has some promotional deals related to the "Summer Games."

 

Samsung is expected to produce an initial batch of 400,000 Galaxy Rings with sensors tracking the user's health and fitness readings which will appear on a paired smartphone display. Users should be able to get an ECG reading from the ring that will determine whether their heart rhythm is abnormal. It will also measure the user's heart rate, blood oxygen level, track his sleep, and more. The Galaxy Ring will probably track its users' daily calorie consumption and certain activities.

 

It might not replace the smartwatch but the smart ring could be another wearable tool that becomes a life saver. The latest rumor calls for the Galaxy Ring to cost somewhere in the range of $300-$350 with a monthly subscription fee required that would be under $10. Samsung's mobile chief TM Roh said back in February that the wearable will be able to get five to nine days out of a single charge. That impressive battery life could be the result of the Ring not having any display to drive.
