The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE will be launched soon, according to reports. The South Korean tech giant may soon release a ‘Fan Edition’ (FE) version of its Galaxy Watch wearable, which runs Google’s Wear OS operating system.
It is believed to be less expensive than the company’s most recent smartwatch models, with specs comparable to an older Galaxy Watch model. The Galaxy Watch FE will most likely be released before July, when Samsung is expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch 7 series.
Android Headlines discovered three model numbers for the rumored Galaxy Watch FE in what looks to be an IMEI database. The model number SM-R866F apparently refers to the global model, whereas SM-R866U and SM-R866N refer to the US and South Korean markets, respectively. The Galaxy Watch FE, according to the publication, would be released for a “budget-friendly price”.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 was released in August 2021 with the model number SM-R860F, which is quite close to the alleged Galaxy Watch FE variant. This hints that it will be a cheap smartwatch running Wear OS and powered by the Exynos W920 CPU.
The alleged Galaxy Watch FE’s hardware specifications and pricing have yet to be revealed online. The smartwatch could launch as Samsung’s most cheap wearable, running Wear OS and featuring the Galaxy Watch 4’s design. Apple’s Watch SE models follow a similar method, providing fewer features for a lower price point.
