Samsung is known for their wearables and smartwatches, always bringing some innovation. But when it comes to the design of their watches, it has become really inconsistent. The most lovable rotating bezel was removed and then brought back, and it looks like the rotating bezel is making its way back in the Watch 8 series. A fresh leak from reliable source OnLeaks has revealed a detailed look at what Samsung plans to launch in some time.
The biggest highlight of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is the return of the physical rotating bezel. Samsung fans have been waiting for the comeback of this iconic feature, and now it looks like it’s making a strong return. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is expected to sport a squircle-shaped body with a sharp, modern design. This makes the watch more practical while bringing back the rotating dial for easier navigation.
So #FutureSquad… Here comes your very first look at the #Samsung #GalaxyWatch8Classic (360° video + stunning 5K renders + dimensions)!😏

Talking about the physical attributes of the watch, the watch will reportedly measure 46 X 46.5 x 14.2 mm, which Samsung will likely market as a 47mm case. It also packs two physical buttons alongside a digital crown with Samsung’s proprietary band system for easy swapping. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is rumoured to launch alongside the Galaxy Watch 8, Galaxy Z Fold 7, and Galaxy Z Flip 7 during Samsung’s next big Galaxy Unpacked event this July. Earlier leaks have also revealed that the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic will have a 450mAh battery capacity, which is slightly more than the Galaxy Watch 7’s 425 mAh battery.
Overall, the Watch 8 series is shaping up to be a great wearable and might just be the best one yet from Samsung.
