Affordable Samsung Galaxy Watch will skip the FE naming
Samsung is working on a cheaper wearable, and initial rumors suggested it will be based on the Watch4 but will be named Galaxy Watch FE. A new report from leakster Max Jambor on X reports the FE name is incorrect and the wearable will simply be called Galaxy Watch4 (2024).
