Samsung’s next big smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch 8, is set to launch on July 9 at the company’s Unpacked event in New York. But ahead of this, a new leak has revealed seven stylish watch faces, giving us an early look at the device’s design upgrades.
What’s Been Leaked?
The leak came from a teardown of the Galaxy Watch 7 Manager app. Inside, tech experts found new watch face files that are believed to be for the upcoming Galaxy Watch 8 series. These seven designs seem to match earlier promo images of the Watch 8, making it very likely that they’ll be included in the final product.
Seven New Watch Faces
Here are the names and styles of the leaked watch faces:
- Minimal Analog – A clean, simple traditional look
- Minimal Digital – A modern digital display with a minimal layout
- Sporty Classic – Stylish, athletic-looking dial for fitness lovers
- Heritage Classic – A timeless design, inspired by traditional watches
- Interactive Number – Fun and animated with changing numbers
- Gradient Info Board – Displays useful data in a smooth gradient style
- Circle Info Board – Shows health and activity data in a circular format
These faces are designed to appeal to different kinds of users, whether they want something basic, sporty, or data-focused.
Other Expected Features
Earlier leaks suggest that Samsung will also release a Galaxy Watch 8 Ultra variant with a new squircle-shaped body — a blend of square and circle. This new shape could offer a more modern look and possibly better screen space. The Watch 8 series is also likely to come with improved battery life, health tracking, and possibly new AI-powered features.
Final Thoughts
While software teardowns don’t always show the final product, these new watch faces look polished and match previous leaks, making their inclusion very likely. With its bold new designs and expected hardware upgrades, the Galaxy Watch 8 series could be Samsung’s most stylish and advanced wearable yet. All eyes are now on the official launch on July 9.
