This Samsung Galaxy fan-favorite could see a return to production in 2025

[phillynews215]

• Samsung released the Watch 7 and Ultra models with no rotating bezel.
• With the Watch 6 series before them, Samsung offered a rotating bezel option through its Classic model.
• New evidence points to the possibility of Samsung returning to the form with a Galaxy Watch 8 Classic.

There is something just so enormously satisfying about a good, tactile, physical interface. How many of you are touchscreen-keyboard pros but also love the feel of a nice mechanical keyboard? Or really like your car’s modern dash and all the info it provides, but still carry a torch for old dashes covered in knobs and switches you could actuate without even taking your eyes off the road?

When it comes to wearables, probably the most prominent example of this kind of conceit has been the rotating bezel on Samsung Galaxy Watch models over the years. While a touchscreen works just fine in a pinch, and is much more practical from an engineering standpoint, being able to navigate your Watch’s UI with just a twist feels so incredibly natural. And that’s why so many Samsung fans were disappointed to see the Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra arrive with no rotating bezels at all.
