Samsung: A new era of smart watches is beginning

Samsung is one of the world’s leading innovators in the world of mobile technology and is constantly looking for ways to meet the new and new needs of its customers. That’s why we’ve decided to join forces with Google’s long-standing strategic partner to create a single platform. As head of software development, I am extremely pleased to be able to contribute to this joint venture with our many years of experience in the development of wearable technology and thus participate in the creation of a system that will offer smart watch users a truly unique experience.

Galaxy Watch watches have many fans around the world – mainly due to their unique design, attractive range of dials and an original platform for monitoring health functions. The new platform will continue to offer the experiences that users of previous versions of the watch so popular. With the help of the best available technology, we have managed to optimize the performance of the watch, improve the operation of sensors and equip the upcoming devices with top displays with low power consumption, so that the watch will last longer.

Smart watch users care a lot about health, fitness and wellness. We are also going to develop this area as much as possible on the new joint platform with Google and satisfy the requirements of customers, for whom these functions are the main reason why they buy watches. We offer world-class technology and we hope that thanks to this, customers will be able to change their lifestyle in a desirable way and live a little healthier every day.

In addition, at Samsung, we care about the ideal combination of Galaxy watches and smartphones to work together in perfect harmony. The new platform is the next step on this path, and we hope to provide the best for users.

Innovation through an interconnected ecosystem

A successful ecosystem is always behind pleasant user experiences. With the new unified platform, we open a whole new world full of opportunities to the development community. An extensive and open ecosystem allows developers and business partners to use their skills and work with us to develop the best available in the world of smart watches.

We believe that the new system of developers on platforms such as Galaxy Watch Studio inspires innovation and development of other applications that will bring new experiences to users around the world. Developers can rely on Samsung’s state-of-the-art network of connected devices, as well as the ever-growing fan base of Galaxy smart watch users.

In short, owners of older watches will definitely not come either

Customers are always the alpha and omega for us and our main effort is to offer them the best possible experience. Users of Galaxy watches with the Tizen operating system will be provided with software support for at least three years after the introduction of each product.
