New features like the Energy Score will offer comprehensive analyses of personal health metrics, including sleep patterns and heart rate variability, to better prepare users for their day.
Additionally, enhanced algorithms and tracking tools will supposedly improve the accuracy of health metrics, with upgraded sleep AI algorithms providing detailed insights into sleep quality, including movement, sleep latency, heart rate and respiratory rate.
Elsewhere, new fitness features aim to deliver more precise training, with metrics like Aerobic Threshold (AT) and Anaerobic Threshold (AnT) Heart Rate Zones for runners, and Functional Threshold Power (FTP) metrics for cyclists.

Samsung says that these new features will be available on the next Galaxy Watch lineup via One UI 6 Watch, which is set to be released later this year. So, it’s safe to assume that the upcoming Galaxy Watch 7 will have access to Galaxy AI on launch day.
When it comes to older models, at this point, Samsung has not officially announced which Galaxy watches will receive this update.

The rumoured Galaxy Watch FE might not get Galaxy AI, as it’s likely to be a cheaper and less feature-rich device.
