Samsung is going to launch the company’s next set of smartwatches, which will have two models, the and the , at the Galaxy Unpacked event . One of the biggest new features these wearables are expected to offer .
With only a week to go for the launch, folks at Android Authority dug deep into the app for Android and UI in it that shows the measurement of advanced glycation end-products or AGEs taken by Galaxy Watches, which helps in determining blood glucose levels.
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are toxic compounds that our bodies produce due to an increased level of glucose circulating in our blood, among other things. These compounds accumulate in our bodies as we age. So, a higher level of AGEs usually indicates a higher level of blood glucose.
In the newly discovered user interface, Samsung says that Galaxy Watches can measure AGEs, which means that the models that can measure this aspect can give you an idea about your blood glucose level. Unfortunately, the South Korean tech giant didn't specify which Galaxy Watch models can measure AGEs.
There is also no information if this is the same blood glucose monitoring feature that Galaxy Watch 7 and the Galaxy Watch Ultra will offer or a separate one. If it is the same feature then many people will be disappointed as they are expected to see full-fledged blood glucose monitoring on the upcoming wearables.
The story continues after the video…
Interestingly, the description of the feature doesn't mention blood glucose monitoring anywhere. Instead, it says that this measurement can “give you a sense of your metabolic health, which reflects your overall biological aging process.” Hopefully, we will get to know more about it as we get closer to the launch.
