Description:
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 could use an Exynos W920 chipset, offering significant performance improvements.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
We've been hearing for a while that Samsung will use a new chipset for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic , and now we know a lot more about just what this chipset might be capable of.
According to SamMobile , the Galaxy Watch 4 (previously thought of as the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 4) will use an Exynos W920 chipset. Its worth noting that the site makes no mention of the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic (the successor to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 ) but wed assume that would use the same chipset.
In any case, the Exynos W920 apparently includes a CPU with 1.25x faster processing times than the Exynos 9110 used in Samsungs last few smartwatches, and more impressively its said to offer 8.8x smoother graphics performance.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is also said to include 1.5GB of RAM, compared to the 1GB found in the Galaxy Watch 3.
So this all sounds like a significant upgrade in power, and Samsungs current smartwatches dont feel particularly lacking in power as it is (which is presumably why the company felt able to stick with the same chipset for so long).
As if with any leak wed take this with a pinch of salt, but everything wed heard so far about this new chipset suggested it would provide a big boost,
so theres a good chance this information is accurate.
At this point it also feels like theres little we dont know about the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and the Watch 4 Classic, as weve seen unofficial renders , a store listing , specs leaks and more. But between the rumored new chipset and the new Wear OS operating system that these wearables are known to run,
theyre worth getting excited about.
Were expecting Samsung to unveil the Galaxy Watch 4 range on August 11 , so there shouldnt be long to wait until well find out for sure what these wearables are capable of. In the meantime, stay tuned to TechRadar for all
the leaks and rumors. We could soon get a Google Pixel Watch
