“We understand the growing needs of smartwatch users, and are committed to guiding our Galaxy Watch4 series community on their unique wellness journeys with our latest update,” said, Janghyun Yoon, Executive Vice President and Head of Software Platform at Mobile eXperience Business, Samsung Electronics. “We are excited to continue this effort as part of our wider initiative to redefine holistic wellness through expanded experiences and new innovations.”

Motivation to Move  

The latest body composition update gives users even more insight into their health progress. Samsung Health will also be providing body composition insights powered by Centr[2], a digital fitness program curated by Chris Hemsworth, to help users transform their health, fitness and mindset. In addition, Galaxy Watch4 users will receive a 30-day trial[3] for full and unrestricted access to Centr. 

Whether you’re just looking to get active or training for an upcoming race, Samsung’s new interval target feature for runners and cyclists lets them pre-set the duration, distance, and number of sets for their workout. From there, Galaxy Watch4 guides them through a custom intensity training session with a series of high-intensity workouts interspersed with low-intensity workouts, making for an impactful and targeted workout every time.

We are continuing our collaboration with top-ranked apps like adidas Running and Strava to help users power through their exercise.

Work Towards a Better Night’s Sleep

Building on Galaxy Watch4’s robust sleep tracking capabilities, the new sleep coaching program helps users develop better sleep habits. By tracking sleep patterns over seven days and completing two related sleep surveys, the program assigns one of eight sleep symbol animals representing the user’s sleep type. Then, it will guide users through a four to five week coaching program that includes missions, checklists, sleep-related articles, meditation guidance, and regular reports to support users as they work towards improving their sleep quality.

When it comes to waking up refreshed, a peaceful and quiet environment is key to achieving a healthy rest as well. Galaxy Watch4 recognizes when users fall asleep and automatically turns off Samsung SmartThings enabled lights to help create better sleeping conditions[4].

Deeper Insights for a Healthier Heart

Combined with the advanced BioActive Sensor technology and Samsung Health Monitor app[5], Galaxy Watch4 measures both blood pressure[6] (BP) and electrocardiogram[7] (ECG), allowing users to monitor their heart health anytime and from anywhere. Since the first introduction in 2020, Samsung Health Monitor app is currently available in 43 markets globally, expanding to 11 more in March, including Canada, Vietnam and South Africa.

Greater Selection of Matching Straps and Watch Faces

The new Galaxy Watch4 update makes the wearable experience even better, from the inside out. Users can further customize their watch face with additional colors and digital clock fonts that make the watch truly their own. Also, new strap colors[8] such as burgundy and cream, and the new fabric band and link bracelet will be available for a more personalized look.

Committed to Expanding Compatibility within the Android Ecosystem

In 2021, Samsung and Google introduced co-developed Wear OS Powered by Samsung, bringing smoother connections across Android devices and seamless access to more apps via Google Play including Google Maps, Google Pay, and YouTube Music. Coming soon through an additional update, users will be able to stream music over Wi-Fi or LTE from the YouTube Music app on their Galaxy Watch4. This means that users can leave their phone behind and still enjoy their favorite artists as they work out on-the-go.

Users can also now install their favorite smartphone apps[9] on their Galaxy Watch4 during initial setup with one tap, creating a seamless experience across devices right out of the box.

Availability^[10] [11]

This software update will be available via the Galaxy Wearable app for Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch4 Classic starting the day of the Unpacked – February 10^th AEDT. Users can purchase the new watch straps beginning late February.

Can already-great devices be improved upon further?

With the aim to deliver world-class technology to make people’s lives even better, Samsung now brings the premium capabilities of the Galaxy S21 series to even more people with the latest addition to the family, the new Galaxy S21 FE 5G. The well-rounded smartphone empowers students and young working professionals to make the most of school, work and play, all day and every day.

Read on to find out how the Galaxy S21 FE 5G is the ideal daily companion with its powerful performance, pro-grade camera, and iconic eye-catching design.

8:00 AM: Fuel up for the day ahead

The start of a day, a blank slate, a fresh beginning. Whether traveling to your workplace, school, or just taking on the to-dos for the day from home, you deserve to start the day off on the right foot.

For example, if you would like to slip in some quick entertainment while on your morning coffee run, with the reliable performance on the Galaxy S21 FE 5G, you can game, stream, and watch across all your favourite apps, as well as virtually connect with friends and family on the go.

Part of the Galaxy family, this device offers seamless connectivity across the Galaxy ecosystem. During early commutes, pair the Galaxy S21 FE 5G with your trusty Galaxy Buds2 to listen to the thumping bass of your favourite song that gets you revved up the same way caffeine gets you going in the morning, or even for your daily dose of TikTok.

9:00 AM: Productivity is the name of the game

As students and young professionals begin to settle into the day’s tasks, whether it’s a Zoom lecture or face-to-face meeting, ensuring the day is productive will likely be top of mind.

Use the Galaxy S21 FE 5G to concurrently run the productivity apps you rely on daily, such as Evernote, Forest, Zoom and, of course, your email. The lightning-fast 5nm 64-bit Octa-Core Processor[1] ensures all your apps run smoothly, so you can focus on getting things done.

12:00 PM: Catch up on what you’ve missed on social media

As much as lunch time is for quelling those hunger pangs, it is also a break from the day’s work, and a chance for you to recalibrate before getting back to business.

If you are on campus with friends, you may be toying with the idea of roping them in for your own rendition of the Helikopter trend on TikTok. The pro-grade camera on the Galaxy S21 FE 5G does all the heavy lifting, letting you effortlessly capture and edit the reel to share on your social media channels. Or if you’re celebrating a colleague’s birthday over lunch, gather your team members and snap a selfie with the Galaxy S21 FE 5G’s advanced 32MP front camera and AI Face Restoration that helps everyone look their best. It’s no wonder the innovative camera is a fan-favourite of the Galaxy S21 experience.

Even if you identify more as a consumer of content on social media rather than a creator, the Galaxy S21 FE 5G delivers a super smooth and fast viewing experience with its 120Hz refresh rate and high-resolution 6.4-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display[2], so you don’t miss a single second of the action.

5:00 PM: Take a break from work or school

When the sun is about to set and you are wrapping up for the day, chances are that your Galaxy S21 FE 5G is still juiced up with its long-lasting all-day battery[3]. If you need a quick top-up before heading

out for an after-work meal with your colleagues, Super Fast charging lets you charge the phone’s battery by more than 50% in just 30 minutes[4].

This means that you can continue to binge on all the shows you want to your heart’s content on the Galaxy S21 FE 5G after dinner, and if you are more of a mobile gamer, you can enjoy stunning, lag-free gaming graphics with lightning-fast 240Hz touch response rate[5], powered by the 5nm 64-bit Octa-Core Processor[6].

The Galaxy S21 FE 5G, an ideal and trusted daily companion

Rest assured that your device is well-defended by the Samsung Knox platform, which can detect cyber risks and protect your valuable personal data at all times. The Galaxy S21 FE 5G also features Private Share[7], which allows you to share pictures and videos with loved ones and friends, determine how long they can have access, and even take back the content if you change your mind.

Available in four fresh colour options — Olive, Lavender, White and Graphite — all of which include a stylish haze finish, the Galaxy S21 FE 5G offers the fan-favourite aspects of Galaxy S21 flagship experience to a wider group of consumers and gives users even more ways to express themselves while staying on top of the day’s activities.

For the binge watcher: Stay connected and entertained like never before

Those who chase the latest Korean drama series will be impressed by the high-resolution 6.4-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Display of the Galaxy S21 FE 5G. This allows the phone to shine with vibrant color and amazing clarity, delivering an unparalleled viewing experience even under bright sunlight.

For the outdoor enthusiast of the family: Express yourself with a pro-grade camera

With the great outdoors providing the most picturesque settings, it’s common that outdoor lovers are often aspiring photographers as well.

The Galaxy S21 FE 5G promises to wow all aspiring nature photographers with a pro-grade camera laden with fun features. Going on an early morning or evening hike? The improved Night Mode setting on the Galaxy S21 FE 5G automatically enhances low-light shots to help you capture clear photos even in the darkest conditions.

Additionally, with Zoom Lock, you can capture stable shots even when your hands are shaky.

The New Year brings a sense of hope and opportunity for a fresh start. For many of us, this is the time to reflect on how we can become better versions of ourselves – whether in our career, health, personal development, or social lives.

Setting New Year’s Resolutions can be a good exercise towards creating a purpose-filled year ahead.

They don’t always need to be weighty goals, such as getting a master’s degree or running your first marathon. These could simply be about being more present with loved ones or taking the time to be healthier or more productive.

With Samsung’s diverse range of products – from the Galaxy Watch 4 series with advanced health tracking features, to the Neo QLED for family fun – you can equip yourself with the right tools to help you stay on track towards your goals, and more importantly, make the most out of the moments that matter the most.

Read on to learn how Samsung can help you make the most out of the year ahead with resolutions that are simple yet meaningful!

Spend quality time with the people that matter

With restrictions around social gatherings expected to ease, many of us are excited to reconnect with family and friends over outings and gatherings,

For those who miss hosting gatherings at home, make up for lost time by catching up over a few rounds of your favorite multiplayer Xbox or PlayStation games, on the cutting-edge display of the QN90A Neo QLED. With 4K gaming at a silky-smooth 120 frames per second with variable refresh rate, and auto low latency mode, the Neo QLED sets the stage for hours of exhilarating fun!

If you’re excited about making up for lost time with friends and family over outings, capture the best moments with the Galaxy Z Flip3 5G!

For the aspiring social media stars, the Galaxy Z Flip3 5G provides the convenience and flexibility of taking hands-free selfies and videos. Whether you’re filming the latest TikTok dance or just taking a group selfie with friends while hiking, the Galaxy Z Flip3 5G has got you covered as it can stand on its own without additional props.

Staying in the pink of health

Most of us would include some form of health or fitness-related goal in our list of resolutions. Afterall, health underpins our overall happiness and quality of life.

With the advanced tracking features on the Galaxy Watch4 Classic, which supports more than 90 exercises, you have an accurate and holistic view of your fitness progress over the months, letting you keep track of your progress and set realistic, and achievable goals – whether it’s a new personal best on the squat rack in the gym, or working towards a 5km run.

Of course, health isn’t just about being physically fit. Being able to access vital health data helps us affirm that we are reaping the benefits of regular exercise and healthy eating. To this end, the Galaxy Watch4 series takes remote health data to the next level, featuring a ground-breaking BioActive Sensor that reads blood oxygen level[1] and for the first time, calculates body composition[2]. These are crucial data that give us a better understanding of the overall state of our health.

Self-improvement and productivity 

Productivity will always be a priority at school and at work, whether we’re working remotely or physically present in an office or school. Regardless of your productivity goals, Samsung’s Smart Monitor promises something for everyone.

Fire up Samsung DeX[3] and connect your smartphone to your monitor to experience full mobile productivity – without a laptop in sight! Imagine coming across an interesting tutorial while taking the train on the way to school, and seamlessly resuming the lesson on the big screen.

Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is the perfect companion for those of us who are looking to be more productive at work by embracing the “work from anywhere” philosophy.

A mobile-working powerhouse, the Galaxy Fold3 5G features the Multi-Active Window[4], which unlocks next-level multi-tasking you never knew was possible in a smartphone – allowing you to open three apps simultaneously on a large 7.6-inch display.

Actualizing your resolutions

Regardless of whether you’re able to fully commit to the New Years’ Resolutions you set out at the start of the year, setting those goals and making a consistent effort to meeting them is half the battle won.

Samsung’s extensive suite of devices are designed to let you focus on the things that matter so you can bring out the best in yourself, whether for work or for play!

Coming to Galaxy Watch Active2 and Galaxy Watch3, the new update gives you the option to select a higher Fall Detection’s sensitivity – you can even choose to detect a fall when you are standing still. Once a fall is detected, your watch will send an SOS notification to pre-selected contacts, helping ensure that the wearer can receive the assistance they need as soon as possible. This makes it easier to keep both yourself and your more vulnerable loved ones safe.[2]

Work Out With Friends Using Updated Group Challenge

Group Challenge enables you to work out with friends no matter how far apart you are – helping you stay motivated and connected by working out together. With the new update you can now add your friends or family members to a Challenge, battling it out to see who can go the furthest or the fastest, either working as a team or competing against each other individually. Keep track of your own place in the competition or see how you’re performing as a team – all from your wrist.

Get A More Holistic Insight into Your Health

The Galaxy Watch series has introduced a vast suite of advanced health features – from heart rate tracking and blood oxygen measurement to sleep and stress management[3]. Plus, with ground-breaking Blood Pressure (BP)[4] and Electrocardiogram (ECG)[5] monitoring, Galaxy Watch users can benefit from convenient health monitoring and gain deeper insights into their overall health through the Samsung Health Monitor app.

The Samsung Health Monitor app[6] is currently available in 42 markets, including Australia, Azerbaijan, Paraguay and Georgia, which was recently introduced on Galaxy Watch4 in the four new markets and has since expanded to Galaxy Watch Active2 and Galaxy Watch3.

The Perfect Watch Face for You

Watch faces are a fun and simple way to make your Galaxy Watch reflect your personal style. Now, you can enjoy 10 additional watch faces that first launched with the Galaxy Watch4. From the bright and bold Big Number and Active watch faces, to the stylish and minimalist Classic – more options means more freedom to express yourself.

Some of the new watch faces are designed to enable you to take personalization a step further. Tapping on these watch face will enable you to pick between different background or text colors, while the Animals watch face allows you to choose between different colorful animated creatures like a monkey, rabbit, sheep or cat.

The ECG feature is not intended to replace traditional methods of diagnosis or treatment. The ECG feature is not intended for users with other known arrhythmias. If an irregular heartbeat or atrial fibrillation is detected, consult a doctor. If you experience symptoms of a heart attack, stroke, or other cardiovascular conditions, do not rely on the notification of the device and consult a doctor. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE. IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, WORSEN OR CHANGE UNEXPECTEDLY, TALK TO YOUR HEALTH PROFESSIONAL.

[6] Availability may vary by market. Available on the Galaxy Watch Active2, Galaxy Watch3 and Galaxy Watch4.

Here is a look at some of the new features coming to the Galaxy Watch4 series.

Your Watch Face, Exactly How You Want It 

With more watch faces and complications to choose from, the latest update enables you to build the perfect watch face to match your personality and fit into your lifestyle.

Now, you have four new faces to choose from – so you can see whatever information you tend to check the most with just a glance at your wrist. If you’re committed to smashing your fitness goals – or just want to keep an eye on your health stats – you can customise the new Info Brick watch face with the stats you care about the most, from heartrate and stress to daily activity status. Or, you can choose a watch face that displays in-depth weather forecast, a basic dashboard, or live wallpapers inspired by Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3 – all of which can also be customised.

Complications are a great way to quickly access important information at-a-glance and launch the apps you use the most. Now, you can mix and match up to four complications to display on your Animals watch face – from battery life to reminders, messages, your step count and much more. You can now also choose a moving GIF for your My Photo+ watch face, rather than just a static photo, to create more exciting and lively watch faces that are completely unique to you.

Keeping fit has been difficult for many of us in the past year – especially for those who are desk-bound for hours on end. At the same time, being cooped up at home has also made it more important than ever for us to be physically active.

If you need a constant companion to nudge you along to be healthier, how about considering a smartwatch?

Regardless of age or lifestyle, the cutting-edge technology and apps embedded within Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch4 are designed to help you plan your workouts more efficiently while maximizing the fun in each activity.

Available in several colourways, the Galaxy Watch4 presents the right data and information to empower you to become the best version of yourself!

Read on to find out four reasons why the Galaxy Watch4 makes for the ultimate workout companion!

1. Test your limits with group challenges

It’s a situation familiar to most of us: After a long day of work or school, the fatigue sets in, and the temptation to skip a workout in favor of watching our favorite TV shows creeps in. When facing such scenarios, there’s nothing like moral support from our social circles to keep us going.

With Group Challenges available on your Galaxy Watch4, you can track your steps against that of your friends and loved ones, and keep each other motivated through a message board[1] and leaderboard that tracks each member’s progress. This is also updated in real time, so you can track your group’s progress live!

You can even get creative by challenging each other in different ways. For example, the person in the family who has accumulated more than 8,000 steps over three consecutive days can get an additional scoop of ice cream. And if you happen to be working out with colleagues, why not recognize the most active co-worker for the month with a medal and shopping vouchers?

2. Discover the best of both worlds with Tizen and Google integration

True to Samsung’s user-first commitment, the Galaxy Watch4 features Wear OS Powered by Samsung – a new platform built by Samsung and Google. Available for the first time in the Galaxy Watch4, Wear OS combines the best of Samsung’s Tizen operating system (OS) with Google’s Wear OS, letting users tap into an expansive ecosystem right from their wrists.

Here are just some of the many ways you can supercharge your workouts with Wear OS:

• Explore new running, hiking and cycling routes conveniently on your wrist with Google Maps, featuring turn-by-turn directions sent from phone to smartwatch.

• Pay for drinks and more without bringing your phone or wallet out via Google Pay[2]!

• Stream music according to the mood of your workout on built-in music apps like Spotify or YouTube without having to bring your phone along with you[3]!

• Download specialized fitness apps through the Google Play store on your Galaxy Watch4, such as Strava, com, Adidas Running and GOLF BUDDY: SMART CADDIE and more!

3. Enjoy seamless integration with the Galaxy Buds2

For many of us, music sets the stage for a fulfilling workout – from heart-pumping house music to stay energized for a high-intensity workout, to therapeutic jazz music that calms one down during a yoga session.

The Galaxy Buds2 comes equipped with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC), which cuts external background noise by up to 98%[4] [5], making it the perfect companion to the Galaxy Watch4 when you’re trying to get in the zone during a workout.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy Buds2’s Ambient Mode lets you choose from three levels of ambient sound, all with just a tap on the Galaxy Watch4 – perfect for moments when you still want to be connected to your surroundings during your fitness regime. That way, you can still listen to your favorite music while talking to your friends during a group run, for instance.

The Galaxy Buds2 also has a battery life of 5 hours in ANC mode – so you’re covered even on longer workout days.

4. Advanced Health Tracking Features

Being able to access vital health data helps us affirm that we are reaping the benefits of regular exercise. It also serves as a good reminder to get up and keep active.

The Galaxy Watch4 takes remote health data to the next level, featuring a ground-breaking BioActive Sensor that reads blood pressure[6] [7], blood oxygen level[8], ECG levels and for the first time, calculates body composition[9].

Users can now workout with a peace of mind through regular monitoring of their blood pressure levels from their Galaxy Watch4, and even keep tabs on their cardiovascular system to catch anything out of the ordinary with ECG rhythm monitoring! By recognizing abnormal heart rate and rhythm, the ECG feature on the Galaxy Watch4 sends data straight to a compatible Galaxy phone to be easily shared [10] [11] [12] [13].

Indeed, having a companion like the Galaxy Watch4 can certainly be a useful push for many of us to lead more active and healthier lifestyles!

OH is common among PD patients and can increase the risk of falls for those in the elderly age group and may already have existing cardiovascular diseases. Measuring blood pressure (BP) frequently can help detect critical fluctuations for diagnosing and managing PD.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch3, Galaxy Watch Active2 and the latest Galaxy Watch4 feature sophisticated sensors that can monitor BP through pulse wave analysis, which is tracked with Heart Rate Monitoring sensors. Users can closely monitor their blood pressure and other vitals in the Samsung Health Monitor app and share them with medical professionals in a PDF file format during consultations.[1]

A research team at the Samsung Medical Center, led by Dr. Jin Whan Cho and Dr. Jong Hyeon Ahn, compared BP measurements collected by the Galaxy Watch3 with those measured by a sphygmomanometer to compare accuracy. The test found that using Galaxy Watch3—which is more portable and convenient than a conventional sphygmomanometer—allows PD patients to measure their BP wherever and whenever they need to, and easily track any BP fluctuation.

The test was conducted on 56 patients—with a mean age of 66.9—with a sphygmomanometer reference on one arm and the Galaxy Watch3 on the other. Each patient had their BP measured with both devices three times.

The findings show that BP measured by both the Galaxy Watch and the sphygmomanometer were comparable. The mean and standard deviation of the differences were 0.4 ± 4.6 mmHg for systolic BP (SBP) and 1.1 ± 4.5 mmHg for diastolic BP (DBP). The correlation coefficient (r) between the two devices was 0.967 for SBP and 0.916 for DBP. The closer the correlation coefficient is to 1, the more  the two devices track each other.

The research team said, “Orthostatic hypotension is a common and challenging symptom that affects people living with PD. But it is hard to screen just by observing symptoms, and the problem may go undetected when measuring BP.” The team added: “If we could use a smartwatch to measure patients’ BP regularly and detect potential issues at an early stage, it would really help treat and manage PD.”

The study, led by Dr. Cho and Dr. Ahn’s research team, titled “Validation of Blood Pressure Measurement Using a Smartwatch in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease,” was published in the latest issue of the leading medical journal Frontiers in Neurology.

Blood pressure monitoring is currently offered through the Samsung Health Monitor app[2] available in Austria, Australia, Brazil, Belgium, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, the UAE, and the UK.

We all strive to be the best version of ourselves – fitter, happier and healthier. Small changes to our daily routines, including changes to diet, sleep habits and exercise, go a long way in helping us get the most out of work and play.

While the path to wellness is different for everyone, there’s nothing more important than to start focusing on our health from young.

Samsung’s new Galaxy Watch4 series takes health and fitness data tracking to the next level, featuring an incredible BioActive Sensor, which uses a single chip to precisely run three powerful health sensors, including Optical Heart Rate, Electrical Heart and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis.

From monitoring blood pressure[1] [2], measuring blood oxygen levels[3], taking electrocardiography (ECG) measurements, and for the first time – calculating body composition[4] – read on to discover three ways you can make the most out of the cutting-edge data presented by the Galaxy Watch4.

1. Get a good night’s sleep, every day

Are you guilty of revenge bedtime procrastination? If so, is there a nagging thought in your head that it might be affecting sleep quality? You can now find out with the Galaxy Watch4’s sleep analysis function.

The sleep analysis function has been a fan favorite for users of the Galaxy Watch series, and rightly so – a good night’s sleep is fundamental to our overall mental and physical health. In fact, in the past year, Galaxy Watch users have checked their sleep patterns more than 800 million times[5]!

To give you a more comprehensive understanding of your sleep quality, the Galaxy Watch4 is designed to track both your snoring and breathing patterns – so you can make informed decisions about your sleep to help you sleep longer and better.

The Samsung Health App[6] on your smartphone can detect the sounds of your snores, while the Watch4 checks your blood oxygen levels once every second[7]. This data collectively informs your overall sleep score.

If you find yourself struggling to get a good night’s sleep based on your Watch4’s readings, you can consider following these steps[8] to improve your sleep score:

• Establish a daily bedtime routine

You sleep best when your body is used to falling asleep and waking up at a fixed time every day — even on weekends or holidays.

• Watch what you eat and drink before

Avoid big meals, alcohol, caffeine, heavy, spicy or sugary foods four to six hours before bedtime, as these foods stimulate the system, making sleeping difficult.

• Create a good sleep environment for yourself

Block out all distracting noises and lights. A room that is too hot or too cold can keep you awake. A cool environment is often the most conducive setting for sleeping.

2. Accurately track fitness and health goals through body composition

Many of us may be more familiar with relying on weighing scale readings as a general indicator of health – but there are limitations to this. Such readings do not consider the amount of muscle, fat and water in your body tissues[9], unlike a more comprehensive body composition analysis.

For the first time in a Galaxy Watch, the body composition measurement tool on the Galaxy Watch4 brings a technology more commonly available in smart scales at the gym or at the clinic to your wrists!

Photo for illustration only

This is enabled by Bioelectrical Impedence Analysis (BIA), which captures 2,400 data points, delivering results in about 15 seconds.

With these insights, you can now adjust your diet and activity levels to get your body composition measurements to a healthier range.

3. Monitor your key health indicators regularly

On top of advanced sleep and body composition tracking, Samsung’s Bioactive Sensor also monitors blood pressure[11].

Generally, a healthy blood pressure reading should be lower than 120/80 mmHg, while a blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg or higher indicates high blood pressure[12] [13] [14]. This can damage blood vessels and can increase the risk of developing kidney failure, coronary heart disease and stroke.

To help maintain a healthy blood pressure, you can consider practicing the following lifestyle and diet habits[15]:

• Moderate your sodium intake

Studies have provided strong evidence that lowering sodium intake is beneficial in reducing blood pressure.

• Increase intake of fibre-rich food

Wholegrains, fruits and vegetables are high in fibre, magnesium and potassium – beneficial foods that lower blood pressure. In addition, aim for two servings of fruits and two servings of vegetables per day.

• Limit fat intake

Dietary fat is high in calories and excessive intake can lead to weight gain and increase your risk of developing high blood pressure. Use less oil when cooking and remove all visible fat before eating. Select healthier cooking methods such as steaming, boiling and grilling instead of deep-frying.

• Limit alcohol consumption

Frequent consumption of alcohol can cause your heart to pump harder and faster, thereby increasing blood pressure. If you choose to drink, moderate your intake of alcoholic drink to not more than one standard drink per day.

Ultimately, the simplest routines and habits can go a long way in helping us achieve our personal health and fitness goals. With the Galaxy Watch4, Samsung brings years of R&D and amazing technologies to your wrist, providing insights distilled into an easy-to-digest interface, guiding you towards making informed decisions that help improve your health, fitness and overall wellness.
