Galaxy Watch6 predicts fainting five minutes early with 84 percent accuracy

Galaxy Watch6 predicted fainting up to five minutes before it happened with 84.6% accuracy across 132 patients, which is genuinely impressive for a watch you can buy at a mall. The problem is specificity, meaning how often the watch correctly stays quiet when nothing is wrong, sat at only 64%. That means more than one in three non-fainting events still triggered a false alarm. Useful in a clinical setting with a doctor nearby, premature as a consumer health feature.
