Samsung Galaxy Watch6, Watch6 Classic revealed in leaked press renders
What's the story
Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked on July 27 will be the busiest event in years. Aside from unveiling its new tablets and foldable smartphones, the South Korean giant will also introduce the Galaxy Watch6 line-up. Two new models including Watch6 and Watch6 Classic are due to be announced. In the latest development, press renders of these upcoming smartwatches have surfaced online ahead of their debut.
Scenario
Classic model is making a comeback with a rotating bezel
The Galaxy Watch 5 series had many positive aspects, but not everyone was pleased with the removal of the rotating bezel that allows you to control the wearable's UI elements. The feature is anticipated to return this year, at least on the Classic model, which is making a comeback after two years. It'll be a relief to see the mechanically rotating bezel back.
Watch #1
Galaxy Watch6 Classic will get some design revamps
As perWinFuture, the Galaxy Watch6 Classic, will be available in Black and Silver color variants. Samsung may also release additional trims following the initial launch. The rotating bezel is also prominently visible in the renders, and it'll be narrower than Watch4 Classic's. The wearable will retain home/back physical buttons from the Watch5 Pro. However, there'll be a noticeable protrusion between the two buttons.

It may come in 43mm and 47mm variants
Samsung is speculated to release Watch6 Classic in 43mm and 47mm variants. Furthermore, the smartwatch will reportedly be offered with a leather watch band at the launch, to set it apart from the cheaper Watch6. As per Ice Universe, the tech giant could outfit the Watch6 Classic with an upgraded 1.47-inch screen. A bump in the display resolution is also expected.
