Samsung at the Mobile World Congress (MMC) 2021 has unveiled its most current interface for its Galaxy smartwatches referred to as One UI Watch. The business has co-created the software program with Google. The UI is anticipated to make the Samsung Galaxy phones more coherent with the watch. “Samsung will bring performance enhancements, a more seamless experience between the Watch and Android smartphones, and access to an even greater number of applications,” the business stated in its weblog post.
During the launch of the most current wearable platform, Google stated that Samsung has shown the business how to optimise particular processes that can lead to greater responsiveness as properly as battery overall performance. With the unveiling, Samsung has shared several specifics on how One UI is anticipated to work. The upcoming Galaxy Watch will develop into the 1st device to have the new unified platform and One UI Watch.
Patrick Chomet, EVP and Head of Customer Experience Office, Mobile Communications Business at Samsung Electronics stated, “Through these efforts, we will enrich our smartwatch experience and convenience of the Galaxy ecosystem for our consumers.”
It is to note that when launched, customers will have to set up compatible apps on their phone that will also be downloaded onto smartwatch. Using the apps from phones, the watch can be managed. For instance, if customers have made any customisations on their phone like show of time in distinctive cities about the globe, this will also be reflected on the watch. Similarly, the numbers that have been blocked on the phone will also stay blocked for the watch. The unified platform will also permit customers to download third-party apps from Google Play Store straight on the watch.
Meanwhile, the business stated that with Google, it has a lengthy history of collaborations. Sameer Samat, Vice President of Product Management, Android and Wear, Google stated, “In collaboration with Samsung, we’re thrilled to bring longer battery life, faster performance, and a wide range of apps, including many from Google to a whole new wearable experience.”
