We may also see new health and fitness features, such as improved heart rate monitoring and GPS tracking.

No need for a Samsung phone.

One of the most interesting features of the Galaxy Watch 7 is that it may not need a Samsung phone to work.

A rotating bezel on at least one model

The Galaxy Watch 7 may also feature a rotating bezel on at least one model, which will provide a more intuitive and user-friendly experience.
