Samsung unveiled its new smartwatch series at Galaxy Unpacked in Seoul, and the event marked the return of the Classic series. Indeed, the rotating physical bezel is back after a year of absence. The new Galaxy Watch 6 series includes a base model and the Classic variant. Similar hardware powers them, but a few differences exist between the two.

The most obvious dissimilarity is that the Classic has a physical rotating bezel, whereas the standard model has a virtual one. But unlike last year, when the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro boasted a few extra fitness features over the standard model, the overall experience between the Galaxy Watch 6 and Watch 6 Classic is technically the same.

Galaxy Watch 6 Classic has a larger 43mm or 47mm case, whereas the standard Watch 6 comes in 40mm and 44mm sizes. But despite the Watch 6 Classic having a larger footprint, the circular screens are identical across both models.

In other words, the 40mm Watch 6 and 43mm Watch 6 Classic have 1.3-inch AMOLEDs with a 432 x 432/480 x 480 resolution. Likewise, the 44mm Watch 6 and 47mm Watch 6 Classic have 1.5-inch AMOLED panels with 432 x 432/480 x 480 pixels.

Lastly, there are some differences in the color palette (and likely the selection of wrist bands). The 40mm Galaxy Watch 6 comes in Graphite and Silver, whereas the 44mm model is available in Graphite and Gold. Meanwhile, Samsung gave the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic two color options, Black and Silver, and they’re shared between the 43mm and 47mm variants.
