Better Sleep: Essential to Better Health<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Samsung has focused its efforts on three key elements for better sleep: understanding personal sleep patterns, building healthy habits, and establishing a sleep-friendly environment. One UI 5 Watch delivers on these elements with an even more complete sleep experience.<\/p>\n

The new Sleep Insights UI prominently displays the user\u2019s sleep score to provide a clearer snapshot of the prior night\u2019s rest, followed by related metrics like sleep phases, snoring hours and blood oxygen levels. In addition, Sleep Coaching \u2014 tailored around eight different sleep types2<\/a><\/sup> \u2014 also becomes fully accessible directly on Galaxy Watch<\/a> as well as a paired phone, making for a more convenient and motivational way for users to track their habits anytime, anywhere.<\/p>\n

Creating a comfortable environment can make all the difference in sleep quality, and even small distractions can have outsized impacts. That\u2019s why Samsung has made it easier to connect Galaxy Watch to a wide range of devices. Once the user\u2019s Galaxy Watch detects that they have fallen asleep, SmartThings<\/a> lets the user switch off their connected devices to create a more conducive environment for rest. Sleep Mode swiftly mutes notifications and dims the user\u2019s phone and watch screens, and One UI 5 Watch builds on this feature by now utilizing an infrared sensor rather than a green LED light to further minimize distractions.<\/p>\n

A Smarter Fitness Partner<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Personalized Heart Rate Zone has been added to Galaxy Watch\u2019s<\/a> various tailored running tools \u2014 including real-time running analysis and a customized interval training program. This new feature analyzes individual physical capabilities3<\/a><\/sup> and sets five optimal workout intensity levels (warm-up, fat burn, cardio, hard-training and max. effort). This enables users to set their own goals based on their ability, from burning fat to high-impact cardio.<\/p>\n

Outdoor activity enthusiasts with Galaxy Watch Pro can look forward to additional benefits, starting with an expanded Route Workout\u2014which now supports running and walking alongside previously available hiking and cycling route options. Galaxy Watch Pro users can also search and access the GPX File Database directly via Samsung Health app, and receive recommendations on new routes based on inputs like location, time, rating or popularity.4<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Safety First, Always On<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Safety is a must when it comes to health and wellness, and One UI 5 Watch also offers improved tools for greater peace of mind. Updates to the SOS feature enable direct communication to an emergency service number to relay information on the wearer\u2019s location5<\/a><\/sup>, and also allow immediate access to the wearer\u2019s Medical Information once an SOS is activated. In addition, Fall Detection is now activated by default for users of advanced ages6<\/a><\/sup> to help lower the risk of emergencies. These are just some of the examples of Samsung\u2019s ongoing efforts to enhance user safety.<\/p>\n
