																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Millions worldwide suffer from <strong>sleep apnea</strong>, but 80% of sufferers<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span>[1]</span></a> don’t even know they have it. This serious condition causes people to experience pauses in breathing while asleep — potentially disrupting oxygen supply, lowering sleep quality and leading to health complications including hypertension and stroke. Despite these risks, the disorder largely goes unnoticed because getting a diagnosis usually requires time-consuming and costly in-lab sleep studies.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To mark <a href="https://worldsleepday.org/">World Sleep Day 2026</a>, a global study of Samsung Health users<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span>[2]</span></a> is shedding new light on the true extent of sleep apnea and the disruptive impact it has on sleep. Aligned with this year’s World Sleep Day theme, “Sleep Well, Live Better,” Samsung Electronics is turning the invisible signs of the condition into actionable insights through the <strong>Galaxy Watch</strong> series, helping those affected improve their sleep habits and overall health.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/12182938/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-World-Sleep-Day-2026-Tackling-Sleep-Apnea_main1_F.jpg" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>How Does Sleep Apnea Impact Sleep?</strong></h3>
<p>The report found that <strong>23% of study participants</strong> were at risk of sleep apnea.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“The microarousals and awakenings that follow breathing pauses fragment your sleep,” said behavioral sleep scientist Dr. Vanessa Hill. “Those occurrences can prevent the brain from staying in the rapid eye movement (REM) and deep sleep stages necessary for cognitive and physical restoration.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The report showed these constant disruptions take a direct toll on sleep duration and quality, leading to:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Reduced REM Sleep:</strong> Participants with moderate to severe sleep apnea indicators detected by Galaxy Watch got around <strong>four minutes less REM sleep</strong>, the phase where the brain processes emotions, consolidates memories and cements learning. Without enough of it, people can experience mood instability and memory problems, impacting performance at work and overall well-being.</li>
<li><strong>Less Deep Sleep:</strong> Sleep apnea also robs sufferers of deep sleep — approximately <strong>eight minutes less </strong>per night on average. This is the body’s critical physical restoration phase, where growth hormone is released, muscles are repaired and the immune system is activated. Losing deep sleep may leave people feeling physically exhausted, experiencing slower recovery times and getting sick more often.</li>
<li><strong>Frequent Nightly Awakenings:</strong> Participants with signs of sleep apnea also woke up more regularly during the night and <strong>stayed awake around four minutes longer</strong>. These interruptions derail the sleep cycle, locking people into lighter, less restorative stages and making next-day exhaustion inevitable, no matter how long they slept.</li>
<li><strong>Shorter Sleep Duration:</strong> Overall, people with a higher likelihood of sleep apnea averaged around <strong>12 minutes less sleep</strong>. While this loss may seem minor, it can significantly impact sleep quality as sleep cycles become fragmented throughout the night.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Why It Matters: </strong>“Even a small loss in sleep duration is compounded by a larger loss of sleep quality,” said Dr. Hill. “This can be the difference between simply being ‘in bed’ and getting restorative rest, which could be why people feel so tired the next day.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Dr. Hill also advocates a multidimensional approach to sleep health. “Sleep apnea affects many dimensions of sleep — duration, quality, sleep efficiency and even daytime fatigue,” she added. “Together, they help determine our health and functioning.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With sleep apnea shown to impact multiple aspects of sleep and lead to other health complications, detection is an essential first step in the fight against the condition.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h3><strong>How Does Galaxy Watch Help Detect Signs of Moderate to Severe Sleep Apnea?</strong></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For years, sleep apnea has been difficult to detect due to the need for inconvenient hospital tests. However, Samsung offers at-home detection with a first-of-its-kind <strong>Sleep Apnea<a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><span>[3]</span></a></strong> feature on Galaxy Watch.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>How It Works</strong>: Users simply track their sleep with a compatible Galaxy Watch<a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4"><span>[4]</span></a> for more than four hours on two nights within a ten-day period. Available through the <strong>Samsung Health Monitor</strong> app, the Sleep Apnea feature enables users to proactively spot signs of the condition. Initially launched in Korea, the feature has since received <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/samsungs-sleep-apnea-feature-on-galaxy-watch-first-of-its-kind-cleared-by-us-fda">De Novo authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)</a> and is now available in 78 markets<a href="#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5"><span>[5]</span></a> worldwide and counting.</li>
<li><strong>The Technology</strong>: Leveraging Galaxy Watch’s <strong>BioActive Sensor</strong>, the feature tracks blood oxygen levels to determine when the user stops breathing (apnea) or experiences shallow breathing (hypopnea). Based on this data, the feature estimates the user’s Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI), which indicates the severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).</li>
<li><strong>From Awareness to Action</strong>: By detecting signs of sleep apnea early, the feature provides the data needed for an informed consultation with a medical professional. In addition to tackling sleep apnea, Galaxy Watch can help users build habits for better holistic sleep health. Features include the <strong>Sleep Coaching </strong>program for detailed analysis and tips on how to improve sleep quality and <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/new-features-on-one-ui-8-watch-help-users-build-healthier-habits">Bedtime Guidance</a>,<a href="#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6"><span><u>[6]</u></span></a> which recommends optimal bedtimes to ensure consistent sleep.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“For years, the inconvenience of an in-lab clinical sleep study has been a barrier to diagnosing sleep apnea,” said Dr. Hill. “Wearable technology such as Galaxy Watch is a breakthrough because it democratizes that first step, allowing people to gather meaningful data from their own beds and providing a starting point for a conversation with a healthcare professional.”</p>
<h3><strong> </strong></h3>
<h3><strong>Take Control of the Night</strong></h3>
<p>A good night’s sleep is the first step toward a healthier, more energized life, and Samsung is here to help guide users. Samsung’s ecosystem offers end-to-end care, from detecting signs of sleep apnea on Galaxy Watch to providing suggestions to seek professional advice<span>to connecting you with professional advice through our health network</span>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Looking ahead, Samsung is constantly innovating and improving the Sleep Apnea feature to make it even more powerful with sharper insights. Prioritizing rest today can help unlock a healthier tomorrow.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="#_ftnref1" name="_ftn1"><span>[1]</span></a> “Obstructive Sleep Apnea National Indicator Report,” American Academy of Sleep Medicine (2023)</p>
<p><a href="#_ftnref2" name="_ftn2"><span>[2]</span></a> Samsung Health users from the U.S., Korea, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Russia, Chile, South Africa and the Philippines participated in the study from January to June 2025.</p>
<p><a href="#_ftnref3" name="_ftn3"><span>[3]</span></a> The Sleep Apnea feature is an over-the-counter (OTC), software-only, mobile medical application operating on a compatible Samsung Galaxy Watch and Galaxy smartphone. It is intended for on-demand use. Users should not use this feature to replace traditional methods of diagnosis and treatment by a qualified clinician. The data provided by this device is also not intended to assist clinicians in diagnosing sleep disorders. For users over the age of 22 who have not been diagnosed with sleep apnea, the feature monitors for signs of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).</p>
<p><a href="#_ftnref4" name="_ftn4"><span>[4]</span></a> Availability may vary by market, carrier, model or paired smartphone. Available on the Galaxy Watch4 series and later models.

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Galaxy Watch is more than a timekeeper — it is a partner that users can count on to support them in pursuing healthier, more balanced lives wherever they are. At Galaxy Unpacked 2024, Samsung unveiled the highest-performing Galaxy Watch ever with the Galaxy Watch Ultra.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Designed to embrace adventure and optimized for people with a passion for maximizing performance, the Galaxy <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/watches/galaxy-watch/galaxy-watch-ultra-titanium-gray-lte-sm-l705fdaains/">Watch Ultra</a> takes the wearable experience to the next level. With advanced AI-based health monitoring and fitness features, unparalleled durability and cutting-edge hardware, the Galaxy Watch Ultra is a personal trainer users can call on anytime.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung Newsroom took this next-generation smartwatch apart and examined it piece by piece — from front to back and even the watch band.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27404 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="1042" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main1.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main1-540x563.jpg 540w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main1-983x1024.jpg 983w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>1. Sensor</strong></h3>
<p>The BioActive Sensor is a key component that measures health metrics such as heart rate and oxygen levels. For more accurate health monitoring, the Galaxy Watch Ultra has a sensor with 13 light-emitting diodes (LEDs) — nine more than its predecessor. The enhanced sensor precisely assesses health metrics whether users are on the move or working out at the gym.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>2. Rear Deco</strong></h3>
<p>The rear deco sits against the wrist alongside the BioActive Sensor to enhance the sensor’s performance.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>3. Front and Back Cases</strong></h3>
<p>The case consists of a front and a back — protecting the watch dial’s movements and surrounding the display. This is the part that most strongly expresses the individual character of a watch. The metal part of the case is made of titanium. Apart from being lighter and stronger than steel use stainless (SUS), the premium metal also adds a touch of class.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>4. PBA, Printed Board Assembly</strong></h3>
<p>The printed board assembly (PBA) is responsible for the Galaxy Watch Ultra’s powerful performance. Equipped with a 3nm Processor for the first time within the Galaxy Watch lineup, the PBA uses a 3nm process and a big.LITTLE processing architecture. This design approach combines one large, powerful core with several smaller cores to increase the power efficiency of the CPU. The Galaxy Watch Ultra’s AP has one big core dedicated to high-performance processing and four little cores that share low-power processing tasks. As a result, the CPU runs three times faster than previous processors and offers a 30% improvement in power efficiency of the processor.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27405 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="1042" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main2.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main2-540x563.jpg 540w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-Ultra-A-Look-Inside-Galaxy-Unpacked-2024_main2-983x1024.jpg 983w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>5. Display</strong></h3>
<p>The customizable display — now brighter with a peak brightness of 3,000 nits — showcases a variety of watch faces to express the user’s individual tastes and preferences. The <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/watches/galaxy-watch/galaxy-watch-ultra-titanium-gray-lte-sm-l705fdaains/">Galaxy Watch Ultra’s</a> screen is clearly visible even outdoors in bright sunlight.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>6. Index Deco</strong></h3>
<p>The index deco is a circular bezel that surrounds the display. Made of lightweight titanium, the index deco’s sleek design was inspired by the indices found on traditional wristwatches.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>7. Watch Band </strong></h3>
<p>The watch band is designed for comfort and breathability with a wavelike design that resists sweat and moisture. The double-tongue buckle provides a secure fit, bringing greater peace of mind to active users who wear the Galaxy Watch Ultra while exercising. Not only is the watch band more comfortable, but it is also easier to attach and detach.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before smartwatches, there was only one reason for anyone to look at their watch. Now, telling time is just one of a myriad of smartwatch functions. People use smartwatches to check time, keep track of important health markers, communicate with friends, choose watch faces for the day and enjoy various content from their wrists.</p>

<p>Samsung Newsroom traced the evolution of the Galaxy Watch series over the past decade — as the device transcended its traditional role and redefined what it meant to be a watch.</p>

<h3><span><strong>Thinking Outside the Box: Opening a New Era of Smartwatch</strong></span></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27253 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="587" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main2.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main2-959x563.jpg 959w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Unveiled in September 2013, the revolutionary Galaxy Gear brought the Galaxy experience closer to everyday life. The wearable featured a 41.4-millimeter display that allowed users to make and receive calls, schedule events, set alarms and check the weather with their voice. Photos and short videos could be captured in the moment without smartphones, thanks to the 1.9-megapixel camera attached to the strap and the ingenious Memographer feature. More than a wristwatch, the Galaxy Gear set the stage for a new era of smartwatches.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27254 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main3.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="553" /></p>
<p>Samsung launched the second-generation Samsung Gear2 in February 2014. Lighter and thinner than its predecessor, this device was equipped with a longer-lasting battery and packed with more features that could be used without a smartphone. Users could monitor their heart rate and track their exercise in real time with the heart rate sensor or turn the watch into a standalone music player with the embedded file storage. The Samsung Gear2 Neo was introduced at the same time, offering consumers an additional option with all the same features of the Samsung Gear2 except the camera.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27255 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main4.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main4.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main4-728x410.jpg 728w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Released in 2014, the Samsung Gear S was Samsung’s first smartwatch to feature a large, curved Super AMOLED display that wrapped around the user’s wrist — supporting 3G and Wi-Fi without a smartphone connection. The Samsung Gear S2, its 2015 successor, was Samsung’s first smartwatch with a circular display and the rotating bezel that is now a hallmark of the Galaxy Watch Classic lineup.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27256 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main5.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="562" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main5.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main5-728x410.jpg 728w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In 2016, Samsung launched the Samsung Gear S3 which turned heads with an elegant design inspired by traditional timepieces and more innovative functions that improved daily life. The Always On Display feature continuously showed the time on users’ wrists with the Super AMOLED display that supports 16 million colors. Featuring a built-in speaker and microphone, the device allowed users to take calls on speakerphone without a Bluetooth headset. Meanwhile, the GPS helped users record exercise history or check routes on maps without a smartphone.<span></span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung Gear Sport, the last model in the Samsung Gear series, offered a sporty design for those with an active lifestyle. Boasting 5 ATM water resistance, the watch could be worn while swimming. Improved water resistance functions included Water lock mode which prevents unintentional activation of the touchscreen in strong currents.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In August 2018, the Galaxy Watch series was born. This rebrand reflected the diverse and ever-expanding functions of a smartwatch in today’s world — as a health tracker, personal assistant, fashion accessory and much more. To enhance the user experience and highlight Samsung’s smartwatch identity, the wearable maintained the signature circular bezel from previous models but added an hourly alarm and ticking sound of the second hand for the first time. Available in three colors and 42- and 46-millimeter sizes, this versatile device offered stress management and sleep management features to enhance users’ health and wellness. Users could keep track of workouts from 39 different kinds of exercises as well, more than any other watch on the market at the time.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27260 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main8.gif" alt="" width="849" height="365" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung launched a new lineup of smartwatches in February 2019 with the Galaxy Watch Active, specifically designed for users with active lifestyles. Boasting a 28.1-millimeter Super AMOLED display, this watch retained the signature circular shape but eliminated the bezel and used aluminum to decrease the weight by 25 grams. The 20-millimeter watchband made of flexible fluoroelastomer offered fashion-conscious users a variety of options to express their individuality. On the other hand, health-conscious users could track their exercise, sleep, stress levels and blood pressure in real time — they could even check how long they spent in rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep versus the other three sleep stages.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-27261 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Watch-series-History-2024_main9.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="501" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In August 2019, the Galaxy Watch Active2 took personalized health and wellness management to the next level for people seeking healthier lifestyles. Apart from the rotating bezel and other user experience enhancements, the My Style feature provided more stylish, customized watch faces to users. The wearable was the perfect partner in helping users adopt healthier and more balanced lifestyles through the upgraded stress and sleep management functions as well as the exercise feature that could track more than 39 different types of workouts. Moreover, the upgraded Galaxy ecosystem improved connectivity and everyday convenience.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>After two years, Samsung brought health seekers the Galaxy Watch3 in August 2020. Maintaining the circular bezel made of stainless steel, users could choose from a larger 41- or 45-millimeter display with a lighter, thinner body. For the first time in Galaxy history, Samsung added an even lighter, stronger and more premium model made of titanium. The device provided an integrated healthcare experience from the wrist with health, fitness, sleep management and blood pressure monitoring. In addition, Samsung introduced electrocardiogram (ECG) readings and a blood oxygen feature to track oxygen saturation over time.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Galaxy Watch4 series redefined the smartwatch experience in August 2021 — with two models, the modern and minimalistic Galaxy Watch4 and the more traditional Galaxy Watch4 Classic featuring the signature rotating bezel. Launched for the first time, the BioActive Sensor measured various health indicators such as blood pressure, ECG and blood oxygen saturation levels more accurately than the previous watch. Users wanting more holistic health insights could measure their body composition by simply placing two fingers on the smartwatch to learn how to manage and achieve their health goals. The wearable was equipped with the new Wear OS, developed jointly with Google, so that users could access a larger variety of applications. Meanwhile, the new One UI Watch update significantly enhanced the user experience by seamlessly connecting the watch with Samsung smartphones, wireless earbuds and other devices.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In August 2022, Samsung opened the next chapter of smartwatches with the Galaxy Watch5 series. Optimal for outdoor sports, the Galaxy Watch5 Pro was newly introduced in this lineup. The more advanced Samsung BioActive Sensor improved the accuracy of body composition, heart rate and ECG monitoring measurements. Notably, a newly equipped temperature sensor on the Galaxy Watch5 provided skin temperature-based predictions to help women conveniently track their menstrual cycles.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung once again stood by its health-seeking users with the Galaxy Watch6 series, unveiled in July 2023. This wearable offers holistic health features to provide more personalized, innovative health solutions to users who want to better manage their health. Complete with a slimmer bezel, the display is about 20% larger than its predecessors to help users see more information at a glance. Galaxy Watch6 is designed with the signature circular design, whereas the Galaxy Watch6 Classic features a rotating bezel reminiscent of analog watches. A new button replaced the spring-bar structure, allowing users to easily switch their watchbands with one click.</p>

<p>With an even more sensitive BioActive sensor and a high-performance processor, health metrics became more specialized — ranging from sleep management and fitness coaching to heart health monitoring.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>An AI-Based Galaxy Health Experience and the Next-Generation Watch</strong></span></h3>
<p>Samsung unveiled One UI 6 Watch in May 2024. With this, the company has successfully transformed the Galaxy Watch into a total digital healthcare assistant that measures indicators such as heart rate, sleep patterns and more. Health insights are more comprehensive and detailed than ever before, and users now receive personalized messages powered by AI to motivate them to reach their health goals. Moreover, the upcoming Galaxy Watch series to be released in the second half of this year will measure Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) with an updated BioActive Sensor that features light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in more colors and newly designed photodiodes.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung is constantly expanding its horizons and will continue to do so. Each new wearable not only offers basic watch functions but also delivers services that younger generations have come to expect. Striving to become the closest partner that values every exciting and precious moment in each user’s life, Samsung has pushed the boundaries of the smartwatch for more than a decade — and the best is yet to come.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Samsung Electronics today announced new software updates to Galaxy Buds2 Pro and <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/watches/all-watches/">Galaxy Watch series</a>, elevating content capturing for Galaxy users everywhere. Samsung’s <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/smartphones/all-smartphones/">Galaxy smartphones</a> have long been offering the best photography and videography experiences, letting users create, capture and share their best moments.

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, people all over the world have been prioritizing their health and wellbeing more than ever. A big part of this involved gaining a greater awareness of the health benefits of sleep.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sleep is a reset for the mind and body. A good night’s sleep strengthens both physical and cognitive health and helps people better perform tasks that require long periods of concentration. Being well rested can, for example, help people work more productively, drive more safely and think more clearly.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Given the impact that the pandemic had on our daily habits, it is worth exploring how our sleep may have changed as a result.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Let’s take a closer look at how sleep duration and efficiency changed across the globe since the start of the pandemic through the sleep patterns of global Samsung Health users.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span>Sleep Duration Versus Efficiency: Why It Matters</span></h3>
<p>When it comes to sleep, longer duration does not necessarily mean better quality. For the purpose of this analysis, duration refers to the amount of time in bed trying to sleep, while sleep efficiency measures the percentage of time in bed that we actually spend sleeping.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>While changes in lifestyle habits during the pandemic saw individuals globally sleeping longer, there seems to be no correlation between sleep duration and sleep efficiency.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In fact, despite people in all countries enjoying longer sleep times on average than before the pandemic, we actually experienced an overall decrease in sleep efficiency.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-21797 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Sleep_Health_Insights_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Sleep_Health_Insights_main1.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Sleep_Health_Insights_main1-728x410.jpg 728w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>What’s more, the results varied by sex. While both males and females are resting more than they were prior to the pandemic, males are not only seeing a longer increase in sleep duration, they are also seeing a larger decrease in sleep efficiency compared to females.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Age is another factor providing interesting insights. While all age groups slept longer, sleep efficiency in fact decreased as age increased. The exception here is people between the ages of 20 and 39, who actually experienced a jump in sleep efficiency. Furthermore, this age group was the only one showing a significant increase in both duration and efficiency.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-21798 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Sleep_Health_Insights_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="659" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Sleep_Health_Insights_main2.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/in/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Sleep_Health_Insights_main2-854x563.jpg 854w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span>How the Pandemic Changed Regional Sleep Habits</span></h3>
<p>We also undertook a deep dive into the 16 countries where individuals use Samsung Health the most to see how sleep habit trends varied by region. While all 16 countries saw an increase in sleep duration — with people, on average, waking up later than they used to — the effect on sleep efficiency was mixed.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Region-specific changes in global sleeping habits can be seen as follows:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>While sleep duration remained the longest — both pre- and post-pandemic — in<span> </span><strong>France</strong>, the country’s sleep efficiency decreased.</li>
<li>Users in<span> </span><strong>Korea</strong><span> </span>recorded one of the biggest increases in sleep duration and efficiency during the pandemic but still remained under the global average.</li>
<li>The<span> </span><strong>U.S.</strong><span> </span>saw the biggest dip in sleep efficiency out of all the regions measured.</li>
<li>While<span> </span><strong>Germany</strong><span> </span>saw the highest global sleep efficiency scores before the pandemic, it has since witnessed one of the most significant decreases in sleep efficiency.</li>

<h3><span>How You Can Improve the Quality of Your Sleep</span></h3>
<p>It is often said that healthy sleep for the average adult is 8 hours a night.<sup>1</sup> However, as the results show, sleep quality may also be an important factor to consider. Sleep tracking is one way we can better understand our sleep patterns to ensure that we are getting a better night’s sleep.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Many Galaxy customers take advantage of this, with 50% of <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/watches/all-watches/">Galaxy Watch</a> users keeping track of their sleep at least once a week. Of those, 40% do so more than three times a week.<sup>2</sup> In order to manage your sleep better, take a look at these tips for using the Galaxy Watch series<sup>3</sup><span> </span>and consider adopting some to ensure each night of sleep is as restful as possible.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Keep track of your sleep patterns</strong>: Sleep Score provides you with detailed data on when you enter deep sleep, REM sleep, and how your sleep and wake-up times vary.</li>
<li><strong>Understand your sleep quality better</strong>: With Blood Oxygen monitoring and Snore Detection, you can learn more about your sleep patterns as well as your overall health.</li>
<li><strong>Try a sleep training program:</strong><span> </span>With Sleep Coaching, receive a tailored sleep guide program based on your actual habits, represented by one of eight dedicated sleep symbol animals, in order to help you understand and improve your sleep.</li>
<li><strong>Set up an ideal sleep environment</strong>: Given that where you sleep is just as important as how, consider adding an auto-setting on the temperature and light controls in your home to ensure the environment is ideal for rest.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em><span><sup>1</sup> The National Sleep Foundation recommends 7-9 hours of sleep per night for the typical adult.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span><sup>2</sup> Based on Samsung Health weekly active users with Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch5.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span><sup>3</sup> Availability may vary depending on market, model and the paired smartphone.</span></em></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Next week, Samsung will share its latest lineup of innovative products designed to enhance users’ everyday lives, including updates that empower fitness and wellness routines. Ahead of the unveiling, we’d like to take the time to reflect our philosophy, achievements and progress that we have made as we approach our most recent step in our health journey.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The world has entered a new era of wellness, seeing a growing desire for a more nuanced understanding of overall health. In the past, health was a simple concept with a single definition. Now, everyone defines health and wellness by what it means to them. To accommodate everyone’s health goals, Samsung is committed to ensuring everyone has access to the resources they need, so they can work towards the best version of themselves.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To that end, we are focused on setting new standards for health experiences through our <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/watches/all-watches/">Galaxy Watch series</a> and across our broader product portfolio. We have established three key pillars to help people reach their own goals: sensor innovation, connected wellness and industry collaboration.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>Advanced Sensors for More Meaningful </strong><strong>Insights</strong></span></h3>
<p>To create healthier habits and reach goals, it’s important we know ourselves better. For our users, this journey starts with Samsung’s groundbreaking BioActive Sensor. The BioActive Sensor delivers accurate and comprehensive health data and provides actionable insights and guidance users can leverage during their health and wellness journey.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>First introduced with the <a href="https://www.samsung.com/in/watches/galaxy-watch/galaxy-watch4-black-bluetooth-sm-r860nzkainu/buy/">Galaxy Watch4</a>, the BioActive Sensor uses a unique single chip that combines three powerful health sensors — Optical Heart Rate (PPG), Electrical Heart Signal (ECG) and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) — into one compact unit. Its streamlined design enhances performance and fits comfortably for increased accuracy and 24/7 usage. This helps users deepen their understanding, encourages action and strengthens good habits to help them achieve their goals.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our sensor provides insights across all aspects of health, but we’d like to highlight two key areas: sleep and body composition. Sleep is often an afterthought when establishing a solid wellness routine, but it is essential for holistic health. At Samsung, we’re serious about helping our community get better sleep. We’ve introduced various sleep quality tracking tools and launched a tailored sleep coaching program all aimed to help users get a more restful night’s sleep.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When it comes to fitness, in particular, everyone’s goals are different. That’s why BioActive Sensor also measures body composition, which deepens users’ knowledge of their physical health, far beyond merely losing weight. The sensor sends microcurrents to measure weight maintained, skeletal muscle gained, body fat lost and body water levels, relative to goals set, helping users hit targets and keep track of what matters to them.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Across these advancements, we remain intensely committed to the secure and private collection of data to give our users peace of mind during their wellness journeys. All health data is encrypted and secured on the device itself and guarded by Knox, ensuring users’ information remains isolated from unauthorized sources.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>Wellness That Spans All Devices</strong></span></h3>
<p>We are also providing tools that allow consumers to track overall health and wellness — whether they’re at home, in the gym, or on the road. The Samsung Health app, with more than 200 million active global users, is at the center of Samsung’s health experience across an extensive range of devices, from smartwatches to smartphones to tablets and even TVs. The app — a holistic health hub that consolidates fitness, wellness and health monitoring capabilities — records and compiles all kinds of health data and activity information, presents them intuitively and gives guidance on how to leverage that data to maximize results. The collected information is comprehensive, easy-to-understand and encourages positive action.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>More connected devices mean a more seamless and enhanced user experience. While following guided workout or meditation programs on Samsung Smart TVs or Galaxy Tabs at home, for example, your calorie count and heart rate are tracked on your Galaxy Watch but viewed on the larger screen for easier access. Your Galaxy Watch also recognizes when you fall asleep and automatically dims lights and turns off air conditioners in response.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>Open Collaboration Means Better Health Experiences</strong></span></h3>
<p>To give our users the best experience possible, we partner with other leaders in technology and wellness. We have built a strong foundation with our technology, and we welcome collaboration on our open ecosystem — one that often serves as an incubator for exciting new applications, services and features. In collaboration with Google, we co-developed Wear OS and Health Connect so that more users can join the unified platform and take advantage of new services and solutions to meet everyone’s needs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung works extensively with third-party experts, research centers and universities to further advance wearable tracking and insight capabilities, including the National Sleep Foundation for sleep, the University of California San Diego Sleep Laboratory and the University of California, San Francisco Hypoxia Research Laboratory for sleep and blood oxygen research and Louisiana State University, Pennington Biomedical Research Center and the University of Hawaii Cancer Center for BIA research, to name a few. We’re also committed to researching new ways our health solutions can be used in the medical field. In the coming months, we’re focused on developing more tools and resources that will support the medical community and give our users a more holistic view of their health records.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>The Promising Future of Health and Wellness</strong></span></h3>
<p>In the last few years, many people around the world have adopted new habits and interests. For many, these include a greater awareness of physical, mental and sleep health. To meet this demand, Samsung is excited to continue expanding our Galaxy Watch lineup to better cater to the many unique needs of our users — especially those with a passion for the outdoors.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our work, however, does not stop there. We are constantly innovating and investing in research and development and exploring new ways to work with our trusted partners. Through open collaboration and focused innovation, we will ensure our users are equipped with advanced technologies that empower them to better understand their own minds and bodies for a truly integrated, holistic experience of health and wellness.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We can’t wait for you to see what’s next. Please be sure to tune in to Galaxy Unpacked on August 10 at 6:30pm IST on<span> <a href="https://news.samsung.com/in">Samsung Newsroom India.</a></span></p>
