Samsung confirms Galaxy Watch FE: an affordable smartwatch addition

Key Points:

  • Samsung is adding a third, more affordable model, the Galaxy Watch FE, to its smartwatch lineup this year.
  • The existence of the Galaxy Watch FE has been confirmed through Samsung’s official support pages.
  • The Galaxy Watch FE is expected to be based on the Galaxy Watch 4, promising robust features at a lower price point.

For the past few years, Samsung has consistently offered two models of smartwatches annually: a standard version and a premium variant. This year, however, marks a departure from tradition by introducing a third model, the Galaxy Watch FE—a more affordable Fan Edition version.

The Galaxy Watch FE has recently surfaced on various certification platforms, hinting at its impending release. However, confirmation from Samsung has been conspicuously absent until now. Samsung has officially validated the existence of the Galaxy Watch FE by launching its support pages on the company’s websites for Ireland, Latin America, and the United Kingdom. The model number SM-R861 is associated with these support pages, indicating that the launch of the wearable is imminent.

While the support page does not divulge any specifications or features of the Galaxy Watch FE, reports suggest it may be modeled after the Galaxy Watch 4. This would be a strategic move, as the Galaxy Watch 4 is renowned for its impressive capabilities.

In addition to the Galaxy Watch FE, Samsung’s lineup this year includes the Galaxy Watch 7 and the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra. The latter aims to compete directly with the Apple Watch Ultra 2, boasting comparable high-end features. All details will be unveiled at the official launch on July 10, 2024.
