This time, the Galaxy Watch 5 series is an incremental update with a few cosmetic changes. One of those changes was the introduction of new watch faces.
These watch faces give the watch a fresh and updated look. If you’re a fan of the look and feel of the new watch faces on the Galaxy Watch 5 series, the good news is that you don’t need to shell out money for a new watch. If you already have a Galaxy Watch 4, you can now download and install new watch faces on it.

What is the new Galaxy Watch 5 watch face

Out of the two analog watch faces, one of them has an abstract background while the other looks pretty classy with a battery graph, weather, and workout info.
