Why Samsung Fans Are Cheering the Galaxy Watch 9 Classic’s Return

Google Wear OS code suggests Samsung is nearing launch of three new smartwatches: Galaxy Watch 9, Galaxy Watch 9 Classic, and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2.

The Classic model appears to bring back the fan-favorite rotating bezel, while the lineup may also add a new “raise to talk” voice shortcut.

Multiple size options are expected, giving Samsung a broader range of choices across different users and price points.

A refreshed smartwatch lineup could help Samsung compete more strongly with Apple and Google in wearables.
