Each year, Samsung rolls out one of the top smartwatches on the market. And this year is no exception, with the Galaxy Watch 7 line-up expected to arrive later in 2024. We’re reportedly getting three new models, similarly to the Watch 5 line-up from 2022. But that’s not the only thing Samsung is copying from 2022, with a returning battery life that could rival the Apple Watch Ultra or Garmin watches.

The latest from the rumour mill, courtesy of Galaxy Club, suggests that Samsung’s next wrist-hugger, the Galaxy Watch 7 Pro, could pack a whopping 578mAh battery. Remember the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and its legendary 80-hour battery life? Samsung seems keen to remind us of the good old days before they took a mysterious detour with the Watch 6 series and its rather underwhelming 425mAh battery. The Watch 5 Pro has a 590mAh battery, which is still higher than the proposed capacity for the new Watch 7 Pro. But, this 80-hour battery range would rival the Apple Watch Ultra or top Garmin watches.
