But maybe not a huge one
), and according to certifications for the upcoming smartwatches, the Galaxy Watch 6 will carry either a 300 mAh or 425 mAh capacity battery depending on its size .
That's up from 284 mAh and 410 mAh respectively, so while we're not talking about a massive leap in terms of battery sizes, we're hoping that the extra capacity and a few extra hardware and software tweaks mean noticeable improvements in battery life.Officially, Samsung says that you can expect"up to 40 hours" between charges for the 40 mm and 44 mm Galaxy Watch 5 models, so we're talking about a day and a half before you have to start reaching for your charger again.
With smartwatches, for example, they're keeping tabs on your steps, your heart rate, your sleep patterns and more besides. Whenever you're not wearing them, there are gaps in the data that's being collected, making these devices less useful. By their very nature though, these wearables are small and light. No one wants a chunky smartwatch weighing down their wrist – and that means there's not much room for a battery. Manufacturers are essentially in a no-win situation for the time being.
