The Galaxy Watch 5 series is catching up with the Watch 6 in the beta program. Last week, Samsung rolled out the One UI 6 Watch beta 8 update for the Galaxy Watch 6 series, and today, the company has turned its attention toward the older Galaxy Watch 5 models.
Today, the Beta Operation Manager on the official Community Forums in Korea has revealed that One UI 6 Watch beta 7 is now rolling out for the Galaxy Watch 5 series. Beta participants in Korea can now download this latest firmware, which brings the Watch series closer to a final public One UI release.
The new beta 7 update for the Watch 5 series appears to have a similar changelog as the beta 8 update for the Watch 6. That, or a new changelog hasn't been provided yet.
Assuming the changelogs are indeed similar across the two betas, this new firmware for the Galaxy Watch 5 brings:
- System stabilization.
- Performance optimization.
- Improvements to battery life.
- Improved network connection for some operators (LTE models).
- Other miscellaneous improvements.
