On the first day of Google’s 2021 I/O conference, Wear OS became the center of attention. It will inject new vitality into the wearable device platform with the help of Fitbit, and the emergence of Samsung is also surprising.
The latter will get the benefits of this cooperation in its upcoming Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch Active 4. Active 4 has just been leaked, and the source shows other interesting features of this sports smartwatch in addition to the operating system.
The leaked information comes from a trusted tipster Ice Universe, who jokingly called the operating system that will run on the Galaxy Watch 4 Tizen Wear OS, which will be the integration of the Tizen operating system and the Wear operating system after Samsung teamed up with Google The operating system, but it is actually more like the One UI 3.x skin on the Wear operating system. We will wait and see whether this integration will surpass the change in appearance.
Galaxy Active 4：
1. TizenWear OS
2. New 5nm processor
3. 2D glass (not 2.5D)
4. Bezel narrowed
5. Excellent frame texture, suspected to be titanium alloy— Ice universe (@UniverseIce) May 19, 2021

It is reported that Galaxy Watch Active 4 will use 2D glass instead of 2.5D as before. A very flat design coupled with a narrower frame may make it look less sporty than the previous Galaxy Watch series. But the expected continued existence of the titanium alloy frame will still give it the same sturdiness and the “excellent texture” described by the leaker.
Perhaps the most interesting part is a new 5-nanometer processor, which is the first time Samsung has changed its smartwatch chip since the first Galaxy Watch in 2018. After all, Wear OS is not known for running on Samsung Exynos chips, but the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100+ does not fully meet this requirement. What this new chip will be will definitely become a topic of discussion.
Samsung is expected to launch two models of the classic Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch Active 4. There is no date for Samsung’s new smartwatch, but the updates of the two products are worth paying attention to because they will bring changes to the operating system and hardware at the same time.
