Advanced Sensors for More Meaningful Insights
The journey to deliver the best health tracker to the users starts with BioActive Sensors. Introduced with the Galaxy Watch 4 series, it provides accurate and comprehensive health data and feeds actionable insights and guidance users can leverage during their health and wellness journey.
It uses a single chip that combines three powerful health sensors that help users deepen their understanding, encourage action, and strengthen good habits to help them achieve their goals. These sensors include Optical Heart Rate (PPG), Electrical Heart Signal (ECG), and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA).
Wellness That Spans All Devices
Samsung also provides tools that allow users to track their overall health and wellness, whether they are at home, in the gym, or on the road. The Samsung Health app is at the center of Samsung’s health experience across an extensive range of Galaxy devices.
It’s a holistic health hub that consolidates fitness, wellness, and health monitoring capabilities as well as records and compiles all kinds of health data and activity information, presents them intuitively, and gives guidance on how to leverage that data to maximize results.
Open Collaboration Means Better Health Experiences
Samsung partners with other leaders in technology and wellness in order to give users the best possible experience. In collaboration with Google, the Korean tech co-developed Wear OS and Health Connect so that more users can join the unified platform and take advantage of new services and solutions to meet everyone’s needs.
Moving on, many people around the world have adopted new health-related habits and interests in the past few years. To meet these demands, Samsung is bringing BioActive Sensor updates to the Galaxy Watch 5 series. However, what’s new is coming is yet to be known.

Samsung could pack the Galaxy Z Flip FE and Z Flip 7 with Exynos processors. The company could launch its first affordable foldable phone next year. The device could get a different camera and processor from the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Leaker Jukanlosreve revealed that Samsung could use the Exynos 2400e in the Galaxy Z Flip FE and Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy Z Flip 7. The former Exynos variant powers the Galaxy S24 FE, while the Exynos 2500 is an upcoming product.
Samsung previously intended to use Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy S25 series. However, the chip has a major performance difference from its Snapdragon counterpart. This led the company to solely rely on the Snapdragon 8 Elite for the S25 series.
Exynos 2500 is being manufactured using Samsung Foundry’s 3nm process node. The yield rate is quite low (around 20%), which is far from the production threshold. However, Samsung chose the path to produce the chip at such a low yield rate.
Exynos 2400 has proven to be a decent chip with no frustrating flaws. The Exynos 2400e could be used in the Z Flip FE. The “e” model could be made using IPoP (Integrated Package on Package) tech, which is cheaper than the standard method.
Recently, a Korean media outlet reported that Samsung Foundry has started mass production of a 3nm Exynos 2500 chip. It was initially intended to be used in the S25 and S25 Plus, but issues pushed it towards the second-half debut in the Z Flip 7.

Samsung said this is just the beginning of its rebates journey in New York. The company looks forward to working with partners to expand these retail rebates to more products and in more states across the United States.
Pay attention, the IRA provides rebates and tax credits to households across America. New York is leading the way in providing direct retail point-of-sale appliance rebates, supporting an affordable clean energy transition.
Inflation Reduction Act
