Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 could potentially borrow the design of the Google Pixel Watch as the South Korean tech giant debuts it this 2023.
The new design of the upcoming Galaxy Watch is likely steering away from the look that the Galaxy Watch 5 sported. And as such, the next-generationn Samsung wearable might look a lot different from its predecessor as it takes design cues from the Google Pixel Watch.

NEW YORK, NY - AUGUST 7: The new Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 is displayed during a launch event at Barclays Center on August 7, 2019 in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. Samsung announced the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10 Plus smartphones, which go on sale August 23 starting at $949.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 New Design
According to a report by Android Central, the South Korean phone maker, which recently introduced its Galaxy S23 series, is set to debut its all-new Galaxy Watch 6 sometime this 2023.
Although the new wearable is expected to get the shimmer of the spotlight this year, Samsung has yet to confirm details regarding the upcoming Galaxy Watch.
However, we are now getting a few glimpses of what to expect from it thanks to early leaks.
None other than the well-known leaker Ice Universe reveals how Samsung plans to differentiate the look of the upcoming Galaxy Watch 6 from its predecessors. It might be away from the design of its previous sibling. However, Google Pixel Watch users might be familiar with the new look the South Korean tech firm is going for.
Similar to the Google Pixel Watch
Ice Universe took to Twitter to disclose the potential design of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6. The reliable leaker highlights that the next-generation wearable is likely adopting a curved glass design, similar to what we saw with the Pixel Watch last year.

The Google Pixel Watch with Fitbit technology is demonstrated at Alphabets Google Android plaza booth during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada on January 5, 2023.
But apart from the curved display, the design changes in the upcoming wearable remain to be unclear.
With that, the renowned tech behemoth might serve us a new smartwatch that ditches the flat screen, which the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 rocked, in favor of the curved glass display.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 has returned to the curved glass design. From now on, it is known that the glass is not flat and there is not much other information.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Flat Displays
According to XDA Developers, Samsung has consistently offered flat glass displays for its Galaxy Watch offerings through the years. It has been a distinction of its wearables to sport the said look. So it would be a breath of fresh air to see a shift in the curved display.
However, it should be noted that the tech giant also recently got rid of its physical rotating bezel, which its previous offerings consistently had. So it looks like Samsung is slowly recreating the look of its smartwatches.
