Alongside the new Galaxy S10 family of smartphones and the all new Galaxy Fold, Samsung snuck a number of other new products into the mix, the new Samsung Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Fit and Fit e, and Galaxy Ear Buds complement the new smartphones. Here's everything you need to know.
All the new accessories support wireless charging so you can use the two-way wireless charging capability of the new Galaxy smartphones to keep them charged up. There's also a bunch of interesting features including, with the Galaxy Watch Fit, blood pressure monitoring which will be available to Australian users.
