The Galaxy Watch6 series has finally been announced for the Japanese market. Based on the concept of a large screen and thin bezel, the rounded screen display area is the largest in the history of Galaxy Watch. While the size is the same as the previous series, the screen size is about 20% larger and the black margin is about 30% smaller, which is a legitimate evolution.

Supports Felica!

Felica is a contactless IC card technology developed by Sony. Even if you have never heard of Felica, most people have probably used something like Edy, Osaifu-Keitai, nanaco, WAON, Suica, ICOCA, or PASMO. Felica has been supporting our daily lives, such as payment at stores and payment of public transportation fares.

For Japan, a Felica powerhouse, the Galaxy Watch6 and Galaxy Watch6 Classic will support Felica payment by Google Wallet exclusively for the Japanese model! This is the first time in the Galaxy Watch series! This is the first time in the Galaxy Watch series! This information alone has caused social networking sites to be flooded with smartwatch users saying, "I have to consider purchasing this watch...".

The date and time of the service support has not yet been announced, but will be announced on the Galaxy Watch6 product page and other sites as needed.

Even more convenient with Galaxy smartphones

When paired with a Galaxy smartphone, users can adjust the camera zoom and switch between photos and videos by simply tracing the bezel or using two fingers on the display. You can also check the camera's reflection on the smartwatch's display, so you can take pictures from a distance or take group photos! Note that the zoom adjustment function requires pairing with "Galaxy S series," "Galaxy Note series," or "Galaxy Z series" compatible with One UI 5.1 or later camera controllers.

The watch is also fully equipped with other loss prevention features, such as notifications when the watch is disconnected from the smartphone, and device remote tracking to locate the smartphone! These features are compatible with Android smartphones with Android 10 or higher and 1.5GB memory or higher, but some features may not work with non-Galaxy smartphones.

High capacity battery and fast charging!
