Upcoming smartwatches & health tech to expect in 2026

Model A2570 has appeared in regulatory databases in Malaysia, Indonesia, South Korea and the EAEU. Malaysia’s SIRIM filing names it T-REX DUAL SOLAR, while earlier Zepp Health app code revealed solar charging support.

Garmin Connect 5.26 added “Enduro_4” to its device registry with internal ID 5179 and multisport category flags.

Samsung’s FCC filing confirms model SM-R391 as the Galaxy Fit 4. REV2.0 hardware was tested in July, with Bluetooth 5.4 and production charging components also documented.

Google captured unpublished Suunto copy naming both watches. It says the Race 3 S comes first and the larger model follows later in 2026.

An Indonesian telecommunications certification issued to Garmin lists the model as “CIRQA SMART RING.” Garmin has not announced a smart ring, and the entry could still be an administrative error, but the wording is specific enough to put it on the radar.

There is a direct reference to something called the “CIRQA Smart Band Pro” in the APK, along with clues pointing to two physical buttons, audio feedback and spoken stats.

Polar Pacer X appeared as a new string in Polar Flow 7.35.0. There are no associated regulatory filings yet.

A mystery screen-equipped fitness band appears in multiple Google Pixel 11 ads but does not match any current Fitbit. Its larger, more rounded display makes a next-generation Charge a plausible explanation, although Google has not identified the device. There has also been a FCC filing that could pertain to that device.

The string SUPPORT_BIND_FALCON2025 appeared among device-support flags in Zepp Health 10.0.8. No regulatory filing has surfaced.

Our teardown of the latest Polar Flow app has revealed references to what appears to be an unreleased Polar H12 heart rate sensor. The name shows up in several parts of the app code.

We dug through the latest Withings app and found repeated references to a device called HWA12, with enough supporting code around it to make this look like an actual upcoming product.

Samsung appears to be working on a rather different kind of Galaxy smartwatch, one that drops Wear OS in favour of a lighter RTOS platform.

Zepp Health has explored a wrist device that connects physiological changes with camera clips. There is no launch evidence.

An Ultrahuman team member said the company was exploring alternate form factors and a modular sensor ecosystem. Nothing concrete has followed.

Suunto has explored a bicep or wrist-worn heart-rate band for sleep, recovery and training. The project has not been approved for release.
