Galaxy Watch 7 One UI 6 Watch Beta 3 update released in the USA
Just as it announced the Galaxy Watch 7 and the Galaxy Watch Ultra, Samsung also released the third One UI 6 Watch beta update to the Galaxy Watch 6 and the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic in South Korea and the USA. The update comes with firmware version ZXG3 and has a download size of around 310MB. It brings several bug fixes and optimizations.
According to the official changelog, the One UI 6 Watch Beta 3 update improves system stability and performance. It also reduced the power consumption of the Galaxy Watch 6 series, fixing issues related to sub-par battery life. Samsung claims that it has improved app launching speed and fixed issues related to network interoperability (likely for LTE versions).
There is a bug that displays the watch face in AoD mode even when the Galaxy Watch 6 isn't worn. Samsung has not fixed that bug yet, but it could be fixed with the next beta update. The forum moderator also said that the One UI 6 Watch beta update will soon be released to the Galaxy Watch 4 and the Galaxy Watch 5.
