Smartwatches have definitely come a long way from their humble and clunky beginnings around a decade ago in terms of both overall functionality and mainstream appeal, but if there’s still one big thing that the industry’s top players need to collectively work on improving, that’s probably the battery life aspect.
Although we wouldn’t expect this year’s Galaxy Watch 5 and Apple Watch Series 8 to bring massive upgrades to the table in that absolutely crucial department, Samsung is almost certainly preparing an improvement users should be able to notice with relative ease out in the real world.
Alas, these battery specs are basically all we know about the Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch 5 Classic, but that’s bound to (gradually) change as August draws near.
