Samsung's Galaxy Watch FE is its new entry-level smartwatch

The Galaxy Watch FE comes in a single 40mm size with a 1.2-inch OLED display. In comparison to Samsung's previous models, the Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 3 came in 40mm and 44mm sizes, while the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic has the largest display at 47mm6. The Watch FE's display is smaller than some of the previous models, but it still offers a clear and vibrant viewing experience.

The Galaxy Watch FE, as an entry-level smartwatch, does forgo some features compared to more premium models. Key features it lacks include:

1. Size Options: Unlike premium models, the Galaxy Watch FE only comes in a single 40mm size with a slightly smaller 1.2-inch OLED display.

2. Latest Processor: The Galaxy Watch FE uses the last-gen Exynos W920 chip instead of the newer W930.

3. Temperature Sensor: The Watch FE does not include the temperature sensor that was introduced in the last year's model.

4. Battery Size: The battery in the Galaxy Watch FE is smaller at 247mAh1.

5. Fast Charging: It's unclear whether the Galaxy Watch FE will support fast charging.

Despite these differences, the Galaxy Watch FE retains many features of the premium models, such as a sapphire crystal lens, IP68 rating, 5ATM of water resistance, one-click strap mechanism, NFC payments, and built-in GPS. It also includes OneUI Watch 5 and Wear OS 4, abnormal high / low heart rate notifications, EKGs, body composition analysis, and personalized heart rate zones.
