Samsung continues to improve its smartwatches year after year with new versions of Wear OS, as is the case with the Galaxy Watch 6. There is one aspect that it has barely addressed on its smartwatches for years And it’s circular shape. But that could all change with its next Galaxy Watch according to a new report.
For years now, especially since it introduced Wear OS in 2021, the Korean company is launching circular smartwatches to put aside other types of formulas it had previously opted for. Just in this year where the Samsung Galaxy S4 Ultra has gone all in on the flat screen, it seems that something is going to change at the Korean tech giant.
In fact, the first Galaxy Gear It was a square design watch just like Gear Live itself. For the latter, we have to go back to 2014 then to the Gear S2 for the manufacturer to move to the circular design in its subsequent smart watches. Which means he played around with different designs to get it back to that square shape.

According to SamMobile, Samsung is already ready to give a twist to the design of its next Galaxy Watch, even if it does not specify when this is planned. It is could be from the next Galaxy Watch 7or wait until next year.
One of the reasons for this significant change It would be closer to the Apple Watch and thus compete directly with a square shape, although it would need to apply significant changes to One UI, a layer optimized for circular watches, so it would have some work to do.
The idea seems tempting, not only to offer a watch directly from the Apple Watch, but also to bring back a important change for one of the products that puts the most love
If I was able to optimize One UI in a year for the possible square shape of the Galaxy Watch 7, accompanied by the Galaxy Ring of the month of July as one of the most interesting health accessories, according to 9to5Googleit would be a bold proposition, and even more so when Google gets it right with its Pixel Watch and its circular shape.
