Samsung Galaxy Watch FE nears launch, spotted on official pages
Samsung's Galaxy Watch FE, an affordable variant of the popular smartwatch series, is reportedly nearing its launch. This speculation has been fueled by the device's appearance on the official support pages of Samsung's UK and Latin American websites. The watch is listed with the model number SM-R861, a detail that further strengthens rumors about its imminent arrival in several markets.
Features and market availability
The same model number, SM-R861, was recently spotted on the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) website, indicating that the device will support 5W wireless charging. Reports suggest that the new wearable will be offered in the US, South Korea, and global markets including India. Notably, tipster Evan Blass had previously included the Galaxy Watch FE in a list of upcoming Samsung products he shared.
Official name still uncertain
Despite these developments, there is still uncertainty regarding the official name of the device. It is widely speculated to be called the Galaxy Watch FE, but some suggest it could be named the Galaxy Watch 4 (2024), as this model also carries the same SM-R860 model number. The final name and key details of this affordable Galaxy Watch are yet to be officially confirmed by Samsung.
