Samsung has begun rolling out the July 2026 security patch to the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 7. SamMobile reported that the company has already started rolling it out to the Galaxy Watch 8 and the Galaxy Watch 7, making them the first Samsung devices to receive it. The brand is rolling it out to their non-cellular variants. As usual, the update is rolling out first in Samsung's home market, South Korea, with the Bluetooth-only variants of the two smartwatches getting it ahead of the LTE models.
