Samsung is rolling out a new security update for the Galaxy Watch 6 and Watch 6 Classic, starting with build numbers R940XXS1BYE9 and R960XXS1BYE9, respectively. The update aims to enhance device protection with improved security features.
The May 2025 security update brings several minor changes, including enhanced security measures. Users can pull the update directly through the Galaxy Watch settings or Samsung Wearables app. Notably, carrier editions may also receive the update in the near future.
Interestingly, this update precedes Samsung’s plans to roll out Wear OS 6 on select devices, with the Galaxy Watch 6 and Watch 6 Classic set to participate in the One UI 8 beta program. Although the exact timeline for the beta is unclear, users can expect further updates and enhancements from Samsung in the coming months.
This minor security update serves as a reminder of Samsung’s ongoing efforts to maintain device security and provide a seamless user experience for its wearables.
