xenluo reported on December 5 that the Chinese version of Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 will receive a major version update of One UI 6.0 today. The installation package size is about 1753.70 MB.
The main updates compiled by xenluo are as follows:
Explore new watch faces
Express your style with new premium watch faces. The “Three Digits” dial offers an analog clock above large, eye-catching numerals. The “Simple Digital” watch face is suitable for users who like minimalist design. “Super Dashboard” gives you quick access to workout information. You can find these watch faces in the new Featured Watch Faces section of the Samsung Smart Wear app, or browse watch faces by keyword, including color, style, and complications.
One Ul visual enhancement
Watch components such as buttons and toggles have been redesigned to be more consistent with One U components on Galaxy phones. Additionally, you get new default fonts that are more stylish and modern. If you selected the default font in Settings, you will be able to see the new font. If you use a different font, you will still see it after upgrading to the One Ul6 watch.
Enhanced card graphics
Each card’s splash screen has been redesigned to give it stunning visuals and a more consistent overall feel.
Monitor your energy levels with Galaxy AI
Samsung Health’s new Al-Driven Energy Score feature shows your physical and mental health based on your sleep and physical activity. If your energy score is low it may be best to take a break. If your energy score is high, it might be time to set a personal best in your favorite sport. Galaxy AI provides personalized health analysis and motivation to help you stay on track.
Get more detailed sleep analysis
New sleep health analysis gives you a more detailed and accurate analysis of your sleep quality. Your comprehensive sleep report now includes your heart rate, breathing rate, and how long it takes you to fall asleep after lying down. You can wear the watch at night to get new sleep information.
Create your own exercise routine
You can combine a range of different exercises together to customize a workout routine and set goals for sets, reps, time, and more. Once you start a workout routine, the watch automatically switches to the next sport once you reach your goal. You can choose to add rest periods between exercises. Once you’ve completed your daily routine, you can view the results of your entire routine in one place.
