Alongside the new Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Z Fold 5 smartphones launched at Unpacked, Samsung also chose to launch the latest versions of its smartwatch: The Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic.

The display on the Watch 6 is 20% larger than the Galaxy Watch 5. That makes it easier to see, with larger text and an improved on-screen keyboard.

Samsung has also carved back the bezel, making it 30% slimmer on the Watch 6. The rotating bezel on the Watch 6 Classic is 15% thinner as well.

Perhaps most importantly though, the Galaxy Watch 6 has a much larger battery. Samsung claims that it's enough to add an extra eight hours of use, which conveniently should be enough to let you track your sleep without needing a recharge.
