The Galaxy Watch 6 has plenty of sports modes and fitness-centric features over the Galaxy Watch 5 series. With the launch of the Wear OS watches, the numbers have grown rapidly. The fourth-gen Galaxy Watch 4 smartwatch has brought some essential and must-have health features for fitness enthusiast users. The ECG & blood pressure are not new to the watch, but Body composition and Snore detection are new to find on Wear OS 4-powered watches.
It is my clear motive to introduce all the Samsung Health functions. Some users may not find few health features in some countries due to the country-specific regulations. You will be surprised to know that US users are still waiting to receive blood pressure on any of their Samsung smartwatches. The ECG is available in the US, though Samsung is missing the BP function. On the other hand, some countries still have to get their hand on both ECG & BP functions.
To make it easy and to know which features are available for the new watch, here is the list of all Samsung Health features for Galaxy Watch 4, Watch 5 & Watch 6.
