Talking about new Samsung smartwatch first, the Galaxy Watch Active is more than just a fitness tracking wearable, claims Samsung. The company notes that the smartwatch's various features, including exercise tracking, sleep tracking, stress tracking, and health tracking make it “a personal lifestyle coach for those seeking a healthier body and mind.”

The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active is the first Samsung wearable to include support for blood pressure monitoring. The Galaxy Watch Active owners will be able to download the MY BP Lab app, which Samsung has developed in partnership with University of California, San Francisco, to track their blood pressure. It is important to note here that blood pressure monitoring will be limited to US, Canada, Singapore, Australia, and Germany markets. The watch is compatible with both Android and iOS operating systems. It also includes Bixby integration for voice actions.

The smartwatch sports a 1.1-inch 360x360 pixel AMOLED screen with Gorilla Glass 3. It comes with a 230mAh battery and is powered by dual-core Exynos 9110 processor. The smartwatch runs on Tizen-based Wearable OS 4.0 and has 768MB of RAM and 4GB of onboard storage. Additionally, the Samsung watch is IP68 and MIL-STD-810G certified with 5ATM water resistance. It packs wireless charging support as well as connectivity options like Bluetooth 4.2, Wi-Fi b/g/n, NFC, and A-GPS.

The Galaxy Watch Active will be offered in four colours - Silver, Black, Rose Gold, Sea Green. The pre-orders go live on February 21 in the United States and the shipping will start March 8. The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active carries a price tag of $199.99 (roughly Rs. 14,300). There is no word on the India price or availability details.
