Hypersensitive skin
If your skin is exposed to soap or sweat for a long period or if you are in a certain environment, a hypersensitive skin reaction may occur. Below, you can check the materials that the Galaxy Watch 4 and 5 series models include if your skin is hypersensitive or if you have an allergy to any materials.
Nickel
The Galaxy Watch’s main body and band buckles consist of stainless steel, which is a non-corrosive metal alloy that contains steel (Fe), nickel (Ni), and Chrome (Cr). However, it is widely used for everyday products, but, some people have an allergy to nickel.
Acrylate
Similar to nickel, Samsung smartwatches’ main body and band include acrylate, which is commonly included in consumer goods that are attached to the skin. If your skin is sensitive to acrylate don’t keep your Galaxy Watch wearing on your wrist for a long to reduce chances of hypersensitive skin reaction.
“Samsung uses materials in Galaxy Watch that meet the standards of the U.S Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the regulations of European countries, and other international standards.”
How to clean
Make sure that the Galaxy Watch has not arrived in contact with dust, sweat, ink, oil, cosmetics, sunscreen, antibacterial spray, hand cleaner, detergent, or insecticides. If your Galaxy Watch is exposed to any of the above-mentioned substances, use a lint-free, soft cloth to clean it.
