Less than a month ago, Samsung released another beta update for the Galaxy Watch 6, which perhaps caused some people to question when the full build would be released. With Samsung releasing One UI 8 based on Wear OS 6 for the Galaxy Watch 6 series, it seems like it will happen sooner rather than later.

In Korea, Samsung’s initial One UI 8 upgrade for the Galaxy Watch 6 and 6 Classic is presently being released (via GSMArena). The US should soon follow suit, adding more regions to the list as similar updates usually do.

The UI and fitness features of the Galaxy Watch 6 and 6 Classic will evolve as more regions become accessible. In particular, One UI 8 Watch introduces a new stacked tile feature for improved widget access, which is much appreciated.

If Samsung is sticking to the same schedule as it did with the Watch 6 series, the Galaxy Watch 5 is scheduled for another beta upgrade in the near future. Although Samsung hasn’t given any timeframe information, it is anticipated that the Galaxy Watch 5 will have access to a final build of Wear OS 6.

Instead of using the Members app, you can download the update using the Galaxy Wearables app. Go to the settings and search for the software update page after that.
