TheGalaxy Watch 4 Classic(the wearable previously known as just the Galaxy Watch 4) is due to appear sometime in August – eitherAugust 3orAugust 11, according to rumors. Ahead of time, we’ve got another unofficial look at the design of this flagship smartwatch fromSamsung.
These pictures come courtesy of well-known tipsterEvan Blass, who has a very good track record when it comes to leaks. Nothing is official until Samsung makes it so, but it’s very likely that this is what the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is going to look like.
What makes us even more sure that these renders are accurate is that they match up withprevious leaks: you can see the thicker, more traditional bezel on both sets of pictures, suggesting that this wearable is the true successor to theSamsung Galaxy Watch 3.
As well as black and silver casings, the images also show three strap colors: white, black, and silver. Again, that matches up with what we’ve seen before, so it looks as though the color combinations for this particular wearable are going to be rather reserved.

Rumors have been swirling about a new Samsung flagship smartwatch for quite a while now, but it was only recently that leaks pointed to the sportierGalaxy Watch Active 4device getting the standard Galaxy Watch 4 naming instead. That means the more traditional timepiece is getting the Classic moniker, apparently.
Whatever the smartwatch ends up being called, we know it’s going to run the revamped Wear OS (with added Tizen) software that Samsung andGooglehave been working together on. We heard a bit more about thatat the end of last month.
Other rumorsaround this wearable suggest that it’s going to go on sale for a starting price of around 470-500 euros (approximately $575/£416/AU$765) for the smaller 42mm version, so adjust your savings plans accordingly. That would make the wearable slightly more expensive than the model that preceded it.
