One UI 8 Watch leaks are flooding the internet, and we’ve played our part too, highlighting upcoming features like random watch faces, app shortcuts, and more. The latest One UI 8 Watch leak is showing off a plethora of new tile previews and, surprisingly, a new tile size too.

Sammyguru has discovered plenty of new tile previews in the full-screen “Fill Size” format. These tiles are said to fill the entire screen of the Galaxy Watch, displaying plenty of information depending on the tile.

Samsung hasn’t shared official information on the upcoming One UI 8 Watch update. However, as we inch closer to the upcoming Galaxy Watch 8 series launch, we reckon we will hear more about it in the coming weeks and months.
