The most exciting element is the visualization of fast charging in the first image, which shows the smartwatch on its charging puck and reaching 45% battery. Previousleaks have suggestedthat the Galaxy Watch 5 models will feature 10W fast charging, double the previous generation. It’s thought this will take the smartwatch from zero to 45% in 30 minutes. It’s currently unclear how long it’ll take to charge the smartwatch fully.
This information isn’t yet confirmed, but the existence of these marketing materials suggests this will be one of the features Samsung uses to push the Galaxy Watch 5 series onto your wrist. The other images are less exciting, but they show some fitness features you may expect, including a focus on sleep tracking.
The final image gives us another glimpse of the smartwatch models in all their glory. According to this image, you’ll get a free pair of the Galaxy Buds Live headphones if you pre-order the smartwatch before August 25th. This deal may be specific to the Spanish market, so we’ll have to see what Samsung offers those in the US in the coming days. In the meantime, you can see the Galaxy Watch 5 from various angles inother leaked materialsshowing various colors of each smartwatch model.
