A rumored Galaxy Watch 5 'Pro' could arrive with a massive battery upgrade

• Samsung may be working on a Pro version of the Galaxy Watch 5.
• The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro is rumored to sport a massive 572mAh battery.
• Samsung is expected to unveil the next Galaxy Watch series later this year running Wear OS 3.

It may be some time before they are announced, but we have already had a few rumors about the watch series. A recent rumor may be the most interesting on that front, with talk of a huge battery in the variant of theGalaxy Watch 5.

A source tells SamMobile that the model number of the watch will be SM-R925. The device will reportedly have a massive 572mAh battery, as per the Korean regulatory listing, but details about this mysterious third model are scarce.

In our testing, the larger watch models can only last two days with regular use. The TicWatch Pro 3 UltraGPS has a slightly larger 577mAh battery and lasts an average of three days on a single charge. This could be a sign of huge battery life gains for the upcoming watch from the company.

The other models of the watch won't care, they're rumored to get slight battery gains over their predecessors. One of the best Android watches on the market is theGalaxy Watch 4, but a third model could prove very popular for Wear OS fans.
