Samsung Galaxy Watch FE vs. Galaxy Watch 6: Downgrade or bargain?

We compare the Galaxy Watch FE vs. 6 to see if you can live with compromises to design, features, and sensors.

Compared to the Watch FE, it has an improved display, faster performance, an extra sleep sensor, and other minor tweaks you'd expect across three generations of devices. On the other hand, the Galaxy Watch FE has nearly all of the same sensors, has the same Sapphire Glass and IP68 protection, weighs slightly less, and (we assume) four years of Wear OS updates. You may want to wait until Galaxy Unpacked to check what this new generation brings to the table since the Watch FE is based on hardware that will be four years out of date by that point.
