    Samsung unveiled a handful of new products late last month, including new smartwatches. The Galaxy Watch 6 series brings two new models and both are respectable, evolutionary upgrades compared to their predecessors.

    The company has continued to improve the durability of its smartwatches in recent years and that holds true for the new Galaxy Watch 6 and the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic as well, which retain the impressive durability that we've seen from the company's smartwatches.

    Galaxy Watch 6 is one of the most durable smartwatches on the market

    Both new Galaxy Watch 6 models come with an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. This means that the smartwatches can be submerged in 50 meters of water for up to 30 minutes. They're also capable of withstanding 5ATM water pressure. In a nutshell, if you want to wear your Galaxy Watch 6 while going for a swim, you can do so without a care in the world.

    Samsung has manufactured the Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic in line with the MIL-STD-810H standard. The MIL-STD-810H certification guarantees that a device meets the benchmark for high-performance in a variety of tough environmental conditions. These include vibration, extreme temperature ranges, shock, humidity and rain protection, fungus, explosive atmosphere, and more.

    This all-encompassing protection for the Galaxy Watch 6 series ensures that it can keep up with you even if you have a very active lifestyle. That ultimately suits the purpose of this device, as it's one of the best products on the market for health and fitness tracking. If you buy the Galaxy Watch 6, you can also enjoy a handful of other cool features, including but not limited to body composition analysis and advanced sleep tracking.
