The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 is available in four distinct hues, albeit not all tones are offered in all sizes. Any size watch is available in both silver and graphite. The larger (44mm) watch comes in pink gold, while the smaller (40mm) watch comes in sapphire (the color, not the crystal).
While Samsung offers a “Bespoke Studio” for its foldable smartphones, the company doesn't have any truly unique Bespoke alternatives for the Galaxy Watch.
The battery in the Galaxy Watch 5 is around 15% larger than that of the Galaxy Watch 4. Given that both watches have the same internal components, including Samsung Exynos W920 processors, the only difference between them should be in battery life.
