It was reported in October that Samsung has released a web browser for the Galaxy Watch 4 wristwatch, and it now appears that the browser is rolling out to all Wear OS smartwatches. Wear 2.0 smartwatches appear to be able to use the Samsung Internet Browser via the Play Store. The browser was first introduced for Tizen-based Samsung smartwatches, and it's now available on the new-look Wear OS wearable. And, like with so much in Wear OS right now, it appears that Samsung is driving a lot of the innovation. We're not clear if it's geared for getting your morning news fix or keeping up with Wareable's newest news - but it might be great for quickly accessing links in emails or texts. But it has a lot more features than you may think. You may navigate a webpage using gesture swipes. You may also use a zoom tool and see bookmarks by swiping up. Perhaps most importantly, you can transmit a webpage to your smartphone to read in its entirety. Because bookmarks and other capabilities need synchronisation with the Samsung Internet browser, we're not sure if users of non-Samsung devices or regular browsers will be able to take use of them. It's yet another arrow in the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4's quiver, which we praised in our review. Wear OS has benefited from it as a catalyst for constructive development. However, Wear 3.0 has yet to be brought out to any other smartwatches, and the TicWatch Pro 3, TicWatch E3, or Fossil Gen 6 aren't expected to get it until 2022.
