Longest Beta?
Samsung ran a historically long Beta Program for the Galaxy Watch models. The Watch 6 Beta testers have received 8 major Beta updates during the program. The last Beta was released in mid-October, marking the closure of the Beta Program.
In late October, the Korean tech giant formally ended the Beta activity. The Beta channel members have received an incremental firmware update, bumping the Beta build to a Stable one. The public rollout has finally started, with expansion will take time.
