We’ve been hearing a bunch of rumors about a possible Samsung Galaxy Watch FE over the past few months. The idea is that this smartwatch will offer some premium features but at a lower price than a full-fledged Galaxy watch. Now it seems like the existence of that watch may have been accidentally confirmed by Samsung itself.
Samsung UK and Latin America both have live support pages for the low cost smartwatch under the model number “SM-R861” (via MySmartPrice). These pages are still up[ at the time of writing, though we expect that they may be removed once Samsung realizes what’s happened.
Android Police notes that the product number is similar to those found on the Galaxy Watch 4 (the SM-R860), suggesting that there may be some similarities between the two smartwatches. That would certainly track with Samsung’s “Fan Edition” products having less impressive specs and features compared to the flagship.
We just hope that problematic things like inconsistent battery life have been fixed this time around. Samsung has had almost 3 years to fix that problem, after all. However, this is all just speculation, and the rumors haven’t been very forthcoming about what the Galaxy Watch FE might actually have to offer.
