Samsung has officially confirmed the return of one of its most beloved smartwatch models, the Galaxy Watch Classic. Fans have long appreciated the Classic line for its timeless design, which combines functionality with a sophisticated aesthetic. The current lineup includes the Galaxy Watch 6, but there is no Galaxy Watch 7 Classic available at this time.
Recent reports indicate that a Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is in the works. The name of this anticipated smartwatch was spotted in the Bluetooth SIG database. Unfortunately, the listing only reveals the model number, SM-L505U, leaving fans eager for more in-depth information about its features and specifications.
A hallmark of the Galaxy Watch Classic series is the rotating bezel, a feature that many users cherish. It remains uncertain whether the upcoming Galaxy Watch 8 Classic will retain this characteristic, but there is hope among enthusiasts. Samsung typically launches new smartwatch models during the summer, suggesting that we may see the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic debut in just a few months.
Its appearance in the Bluetooth SIG solidifies the expectation of a release this year. As the launch date approaches, more details are likely to emerge, albeit from unofficial sources. Samsung’s next significant event is anticipated in July, when the company is expected to unveil its new foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7.
This occasion might also serve as a fitting backdrop for introducing the next generation of smartwatches, including the eagerly awaited Galaxy Watch 8 Classic.
