Samsung has launched two new metal straps for the Galaxy Watch 5 series. The Milanese strap is made using stainless steel, while the Link Bracelet is made using titanium. Both new official straps are now available in South Korea for the Galaxy Watch 5 and the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.
The Milanese and Link Bracelet straps come in black and silver colors. Unlike the silicon strap that comes with the Galaxy Watch 5 series, these new metal bands offer a sense of luxury and can be matched to a user's outfit. The Link Bracelet features a button-type mechanism to attach to the watch, and its length can be easily adjusted. It has a magnetic buckle for better ease of use.
The Milanese strap has a mesh structure, offering enough ventilation for higher comfort. The Milanese strap also features a magnetic buckle similar to the Link Bracelet. The company is selling these new straps separately and in a bundle along with Galaxy Watch 5 series smartwatches in South Korea.
