What you need to know about the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

The new Galaxy Watch 4 range gives you “more smartwatch choices than ever before” according to Andy Boxall in our Galaxy Watch 4 hands-on review. Our resident smartwatch expert also says a lot is going on under the surface, including many “thoughtful alterations” for the design. In other words, it’s a more accessible, and well-improved smartwatch than its previous iterations.

It ditches the Samsung Tizen OS for Android’s Wear OS, which actually feels very similar in design, yet includes access to so many more apps. The physical design is slimmer and more accommodating, especially to smaller wrists. What’s more, it’s one of the first true smartwatches to support body composition analysis, providing a deep dive into your health and fitness — alongside other important stats. You also get sleep tracking, general fitness and activity tracking, mobile pay — thanks to Google Pay — mobile notifications, and much more. It’s 5ATM or IP68 resistant, with a mil-spec rating of 810G, so it’s tough and can take quite the beating. It also comes in a wide variety of colors and styles, including the Classic version.

This is the definitive Samsung smartwatch, and it’s a worthy competitor to the Apple Watch, even more so than previous models.

Google’s new Fitbit is coming for the space between a fitness band and a smartwatch
Google’s Fitbit Edge could replace the Charge with a screen and seven-day battery

Google could be preparing a new fitness tracker that fills the gap between the screen-free Fitbit Air and the more capable Pixel Watch 5. Exclusive images obtained by Android Headlines reportedly show the Fitbit Edge, a screen-equipped fitness band that could effectively become the successor to the Fitbit Charge lineup.

Google has not released a new Fitbit Charge since 2023, leaving the future of the popular fitness-band series uncertain. The Fitbit Edge could now be Google's answer, bringing a small display and useful smart features while keeping the focus firmly on fitness rather than turning the wrist into another smartphone.

Apple is going back to its design roots and its new leader is leading the push
John Ternus is taking a much more hands-on role in Apple’s design teams.

Apple may be moving back toward the design-focused culture that shaped some of its most important products. New CEO John Ternus has reportedly made design a much bigger part of his job, spending significant time with the company’s industrial design and human interface teams.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple also does not appear to be actively looking for an executive to oversee the entire design organization. Ternus now appears to be filling that gap himself, giving the company’s hardware and software design groups a single senior decision-maker again after years of operating under separate leaders.
