Galaxy Watch Ultra gets One UI 8 Watch – here come the new health and fitness features

Phone Arena22-07-2025
Samsung just announced that One UI 8 Watch is now available for the Galaxy Watch Ultra. The update unlocks the new motivational health features and the refined, intuitive interface Samsung introduced with the Galaxy Watch 8 series for Galaxy Watch Ultra users. The new update brings Running Coach, Vascular Load, and Antioxidant Index to the Galaxy Watch Ultra. All these features are made to help you build healthier habits with motivational insights to inspire you.
But that's not all. Galaxy Watch Ultra users can now also enjoy the new One UI 8 Watch user interface. It is a new interface optimized to give you the essential information at a glance, and it takes into consideration a timepiece's smaller screen.

The Now Bar is also here, making sure that whatever you are using right now is accessible easily.

These new features integrate quite well with the Galaxy Watch Ultra's smooth performance and durable design, and elevate the smartwatch even further. Right now, the Galaxy Watch Ultra is the best option for outdoorsy people who go on adventures. The watch is available in four titanium finishes, including the newly introduced Titanium Blue, which is simply stunning.
On the other hand, the Galaxy Watch 8 is more for casual and everyday users who prefer comfort and style, while the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is sophistication coupled with advanced functionality. The Galaxy Watch 8 series is launching soon, alongside the Titanium Blue finish for the Galaxy Watch Ultra.
I think these updates are a great addition to the already-awesome Galaxy Watch Ultra. The new features are entirely there to help you improve your health habits and overall well-being, and I find them super cool, especially the Antioxidant Index, which is a feature that would help you maintain your health for longer. Switch to a 2-month Total 5G or 5G+ plan with Total Wireless and score this foldable deal.

The Galaxy Buds3 FE are now officially listed on Samsung's website

Vlad, 06 August 2025 Back in June we heard that Samsung was working on two pairs of more affordable TWS earbuds, and the cheaper of the two, the Galaxy Buds Core, have already been quietly launched. That leaves the Galaxy Buds3 FE, due to be placed in between the Buds Core and the Buds3 in the Korean company's portfolio. A couple of days ago a certification revealed that the Buds3 FE would have much better battery life than the original Buds FE, and today the company has listed these on its website for Latin America. They come with a $129 price tag, which may be identical to what they'll be going for in the US if they ever make it there. There are unfortunately no specs listed, just the price and the image you can see above, which shows two colorways. Despite that, the website claims the Buds3 FE are only available in one color: gray. Needless to say, this may be a premature listing, as we were expecting these to become official alongside the Galaxy S25 FE in September. If so, it will undoubtedly be taken down, but at least it gives us a pretty good idea of what to expect, price-wise. Source

Pixel phones could get Galaxy-style navigation according to hidden code

The update to Android 9 Pie brought gesture navigation to Android. Swiping up from the bottom takes the user home. Swipe up from the bottom and hold to access recent apps. Swipe in from either the left or right edge of the screen to go back. Swipe left or right from the navigation bar (the small handle at the bottom of the display) to switch between apps. Pixel users can switch from the gesture navigation to the three-button navigation by going to Settings > Display & touch > Navigation mode > 3-button navigation . The latest release of Android Canary, the program that allows Pixel users to see new Android features in advance, contained code spotted by Android expert Mishaal Rahman. The code gives Pixel users the option to flip the order of the three navigation buttons on the phone. While the Pixel's three-button navigation goes, from left-to-right, Back, Home, Recents, the three-button navigation on Samsung phones has Recents first on the left, followed by Home, and Back. What the Pixel 3-button navigation UI will look like when flipped to match Samsung's version. | Image credit-Android Authority So if you're switching from a Samsung Galaxy handset to a Pixel, and you use the three-button navigation interface, your muscle memory might mix things up, and you'll go to Recents when you meant to go Back. If Google follows through with this code, Pixel users will have the option of having their three-button navigation interface appear just as it does on a Galaxy phone. We'd love to tell you when you can expect this feature to appear, but alas, we can't. Since it's only code in Android Canary for now, there is no way to determine when-or even if, Google plans to launch this feature. We're sure that those who have switched from a Galaxy device to a Pixel and had problems using the three-button navigation know exactly how this change could be very useful.
