These leaked specs are largely in line with what we've seen from previous rumors, but they do confirm some key features. Those include a proper electrocardiogram sensor (ECG) for detecting heartbeats, which is available on the latest Apple Watch models and recently came to Samsung's Galaxy Watch Active 2. There's also the photo plenthysmography (PPG) sensor, which should allow for blood oxygen monitoring — one of the key rumored features expected to hit the Apple Watch 6.
This leak also confirms the long-awaited return of a proper rotating bezel, which was a popular feature on the original Galaxy Watch. Both sizes of the watch will be made of stainless steel, sport Super AMOLED Gorilla Glass DX displays and pack 1GB of RAM with 8GB of storage
Aside from the obvious size difference, there are a few key distinctions between the 45mm and 41mm models. The 45mm model has a bigger 340 mAh battery compared to the smaller model's 247 mAh battery, and you'll get a different choice of colors depending on which version of the watch you opt for. The 45mm model comes in Mystic Black and Mystic Silver with a Black Leather band, while the 41mm version comes in Mystic Silver and Mystic Bronze with Black Leather and Pink Leather band options.
