Samsung just unveiled a brand new wearable.

At its Unpacked event on Thursday to introduce
the new Galaxy Note 9, Samsung also revealed the new Galaxy
Watch. 

The watch isn’t Samsung’s first wearable, but it’s the first with
the Galaxy brand name — in the past, Samsung’s smartwatches have
been under the “Gear” branding. 

The new Galaxy Watch will be a fitness-focused smartwatch. It
will have 39 different exercises built in, will be able to
automatically detect six of the most common workouts, and will
also have sleep tracking. The watch is waterproof and can be worn
swimming as well. 

The Galaxy Watch has LTE connectivity, which means you can make
calls or listen to music without being tethered to your
smartphone. The watch comes in two sizes, three colors, has an
AMOLED display, and “military-grade durability.” 

Samsung says the watch will get “several days” of battery life on
a single charge. It will be able to charge wirelessly on
Samsung’s new Duo wireless charging pad, which can charge a
smartphone and the watch at the same time. 

There’s no word yet on pricing and availability, but we’ll update
this post as soon as we hear.
