Samsung is set to unveil its new Galaxy Watch 7 series, powered by a 3nm Exynos W1000 chip. This technological breakthrough promises exceptional performance and increased battery life, enough to redefine the standards of the wearables industry.
A revolutionary chip at the heart of the Galaxy Watch 7
Samsung has just unveiled the Exynos W1000, its latest chip dedicated to smartwatches. This new generation of SoC (System on Chip) will be at the heart of the upcoming Galaxy Watch 7 series, which is scheduled to be presented on July 10 at the Unpacked event.
Engraved in 3nm using Samsung Foundry's GAA (Gate-All-Around) process, the W1000 marks a major technological breakthrough. It succeeds the Exynos W920, used since 2021 in the Galaxy Watch and engraved in 5nm.
Dramatic increase in performance
The new W1000 architecture promises impressive performance gains:
Samsung claims that this unprecedented configuration for a wearable chip will enable a significantly smoother and more responsive user experience.
Optimized energy efficiency
Beyond raw performance, the W1000 was designed to optimize the battery life of smartwatches. The 3nm engraving and the use of FO-PLP (Fan-Out Panel Level Packaging) technology allow for better heat dissipation and reduced size.
The chip also integrates a 2.5D display engine for the always-on display, promising an improved experience in low-power mode. These innovations should translate into increased battery life for the Galaxy Watch 7.
Extensive connectivity
The W1000 is not left out in terms of connectivity:
These features ensure an optimal connection in all situations, whether for activity tracking or communications.
A leap forward for wearables
With 32GB of eMMC storage and support for LPDDR5 memory, the W1000 offers capabilities worthy of a high-end smartphone. This increased power opens the door to new features and applications for smartwatches.
The arrival of the Galaxy Watch 7 equipped with this revolutionary chip could well mark a turning point in the wearables industry. Users can expect a smartwatch that is more responsive, more autonomous and capable of performing more complex tasks.
With just a week to go until the official unveiling, excitement is building around this new generation of Samsung watches. The Galaxy Watch 7 is shaping up to be a serious competitor to the Apple Watch, promising to redefine consumer expectations for high-end smartwatches.
