The Galaxy Watch Active will come with a 1.1 inch AMOLED display along with a resolution of 360×360 pixels, no bezel ring and small display. Given the smaller display, the phone is expected to come with a smaller battery of 236mAh compared to Gear Sport that comes with a 300mAh battery.
In terms of battery, the Galaxy Watch Active will come with a redesigned Charger which happens to be a small pad that suggests that the watch would sit on it horizontally instead of a 90-degree angle. This will make it more convenient as the watch will be placed on the flat surface that will utilize the reverse wireless charging feature.
