Samsung Enables Blood Pressure Monitoring on Some Galaxy Watch Models in the US; Watch 9 Development Tipped

/in /tarafından

Samsung has rolled out blood pressure monitoring for select Galaxy Watch users in the US via the Samsung Health Monitor app. The update allows users to measure and track blood pressure directly from their wrist on supported models. The company said the feature is meant to help users track trends over time and is not intended for medical diagnosis or treatment. Separately, early signs suggest that the Galaxy Watch 9 is already in development, with a firmware file linked to the device spotted on Samsung’s servers.

 

Samsung Galaxy Watch Models Offer Blood Pressure Monitoring After Years

Samsung has enabled blood pressure monitoring for select Galaxy Watch users in the US through the Samsung Health Monitor app. The feature is available on models including the Galaxy Watch 8, Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, Galaxy Watch 7, Galaxy Watch 6 series, and Galaxy Watch 5 series.Users can measure and track their blood pressure directly from the watch, with readings that include systolic and diastolic values along with heart rate. To keep readings accurate, the watch needs to be calibrated every 28 days using a standard upper-arm blood pressure monitor.

This feature joins other health tools on Galaxy Watch devices, such as ECG tracking, irregular heart rhythm alerts, and sleep apnea detection. Samsung also plans to add passive monitoring later this year to show long-term blood pressure trends.

 

Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 Firmware Leaks

Meanwhile, early leaks suggest that the Galaxy Watch 9 is already in development. A firmware file with the model number SM-L345U has been spotted on Samsung’s servers by tipster Mohammed Khatri. Previous reports have associated this model number with the upcoming smartwatch, pointing to internal testing.

 

Samsung usually updates its smartwatch lineup every year, as it introduced the Galaxy Watch 8 series alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 in July 2025, and the next generation is expected to follow a similar schedule. If that holds, the Galaxy Watch 9 could arrive with the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8 around July 2026.

NeurIPS Reverses Ban on Sanctioned Entities After China Backlash

/in /tarafından

NeurIPS, one of the world’s leading artificial intelligence conferences, has reversed a controversial policy that would have banned research papers from entities under U.S. sanctions, following strong backlash from China.

The policy, initially introduced earlier in the week, aimed to expand restrictions beyond the U.S. Treasury’s sanctions list. It triggered immediate criticism, particularly from China Association for Science and Technology, which announced a boycott and halted funding support for members planning to attend the conference.

NeurIPS later stated that the broader restriction had been issued in error due to a miscommunication with its legal team. The organization clarified that submission limits would apply only to entities listed under the U.S. Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list, not all sanctioned organizations.

The conference issued a public apology, acknowledging the disruption caused within the global research community. The incident underscores growing tensions between the United States and China in the field of artificial intelligence, where academic collaboration is increasingly influenced by geopolitical factors.

NeurIPS remains a key global platform where researchers, companies and experts present peer-reviewed AI research and discuss technological advances each year.
