The key to your most productive self?
Your chronotype

Unlock your peak potential by optimizing your sleep schedule.

Do you wake up at the crack of dawn and feel most energized in the morning, or do you perk up in the evening as everyone else is turning in?

Your preference is based on your chronotype, an internal circadian rhythm and clock that affects your sleep and energy. Understanding your chronotype can give you insight into your sleep patterns and help you figure out when you’ll be most productive.
Paired with the right Samsung tech, this newfound knowledge can optimize every part of your day.

Learn more about your specific chronograph below and the devices that can help you be most efficient.

The Bear

If you’re a Bear chronotype, you wake up naturally with the sun and are most productive until noon, making it more difficult to multitask when the traditional workday is ramping up. Schedule the tasks that require a high level of focus in the morning. Use the calendar on Galaxy Z Fold3 to set AM meetings, reorganize your to-do list and assign certain tasks to specific times. The Z Fold3’s large, foldable screen makes side-by-side multitasking a breeze, while the optional Galaxy S Pen¹ lets you easily switch between typing and writing based on your preference.

The Wolf

Wolves sleep later in the morning and experience an energy burst in the evening. If this sounds like you, your chronotype is best suited to crossing off easier, more trivial tasks in the daytime. Because you’re creative and impulsive, you’ll benefit from a portable device like Galaxy Tab S8 to handwrite or illustrate your ideas from anywhere.

The Lion

If you’re a lion, you wake up super early—think 5:30 AM—and immediately go full throttle. To steady yourself and ensure a good night’s sleep, try giving yourself a mental timeout using the Mindfulness feature² on your Galaxy S22 Ultra, in collaboration with Calm, for guided meditation before bed.

The Dolphin

Dolphins are known for their ability to sleep as they swim, or by staying in place vertically or horizontally. This chronotype has similarly strange sleeping habits and, as a result, their energy peaks between 10 AM and 2 PM. It's essential they have the right note-taking tools to map out the more complicated tasks they'll tackle during a very limited window of productivity. If you’re a dolphin chronotype, use Galaxy S22 Ultra on the go, so you can jot down the important things to remember in meetings, on the street, on a plane or in bed—anywhere inspiration strikes.

Take notes like a boss
Use Galaxy S Pen Pro to scribble, draw or highlight, and seamlessly add notes across all your connected Samsung devices.

Track your sleep

Now that you know your chronotype better, one way you can keep tabs on your sleep is by using Galaxy Watch³, which can track sleep duration and sleep stages, including restorative REM. As you snooze, Watch4 analyzes the calories you’ve burned, your blood oxygen levels and whether you’ve been snoring—and if so, for how long.

Acting like a personal sleep coach, Watch4 uses advanced data to assign you an easy-to-understand sleep score. With this information in mind, you can get customized sleep guidance and follow a program designed especially to your at-rest needs.

After hacking your sleep, use Watch4’s body composition analysis and workout-tracking features to boost your overall health.
