Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Has a Built-In Body Fat Calculator—Other Features Include Muscle Mass, and MORE

Samsung's Galaxy Watch 4 has debuted a new feature, and it would bring an easier way for people to check their body fat content and muscle mass. These new features add up to what the Galaxy Watch has offered people for years now, and it is one popular smartwatch, known to pair well with South Korean smartphones.

The Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event has ended, and it brought a lot of new devices from the popular tech giant from Suwon-si. The company's event was rumored to be dated August 11 and has certainly brought more tech for people to ponder on.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4's Body Fat Measurement

Samsung says that the Galaxy Watch 4 is "a watch that knows you best," and it brings a lot of new features that would surely support what the company claims for its device. It still retains the iconic round watch face, something which Samsung has focused on, apart from the growing popularity of square faces.

However, the latest addition to this release is the body fat content measuring feature, which aims to bring one for the fitness and wellness-conscious people. This can be achieved through its bioelectrical impedance analysis, which the company has focused on and studied over the past.

Their findings were published in Nature Communication's journal, entitled "Wrist-wearable bioelectrical impedance analyzer with miniature electrodes for daily obesity management."

Its main goal is to monitor obesity and help people see bodily changes easily, but it also is widely applicable to that health-monitoring people.

Galaxy Watch 4's Other Features

What the Galaxy Watch 4 brings is more than the body fat measurement system, but also the ability to monitor skeletal muscle and body water content. The watch was also said to have the ability to look at one's body mass.

With the variables mentioned by Samsung, the Galaxy Watch 4 can potentially be an effective tool to monitor one's BMI or body mass index, as well as body fat content. It can help in bringing first-hand knowledge to people, so that they may know what to do and improve on when on their way to getting fit.

Wear OS and Galaxy Watch 4

While Body Fat Measurement is a sick new feature of the smartwatch, it is worth noting that the Galaxy Watch 4 also has the Wear OS installed on it. This may be one of the first devices which have received the latest version of the Wear OS from Google and Samsung's collaboration.

This brings a new adaptive feature that integrates the smartwatch to all Android devices that are compatible with it. The feature makes it a seamless connection between the smartwatch and one's smart device. Truly, the Galaxy Watch 4 is one powerful tool, aiming to take the throne from the Apple Watch.
