The support page for the Samsung Galaxy Watch FE shows model number SM-R861 and some reports claim that the launch is imminent as well. The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE is expected to be a more affordable model sharing some specs with the existing Galaxy Watch 4.

Galaxy Watch 4 was launched in 2021 with a starting price of Rs. 23,999 which is way less than Galaxy Watch 6 (Rs. 29,999). If Galaxy Watch FE is modelled along the lines of Watch 4 then it will have a similar circular shape with a rotating bezel and run WearOS with various health and fitness features.

Samsung Galaxy Watch FE is expected to compete with watches like Amazfit Cheetah, OnePlus Watch 2 and Google Pixel Watch among others. These smartwatches are priced under 25k and have various exciting features.
