Here comes what we’ve all been waiting for. Much to the satisfaction of tech enthusiast worldwide, Samsung has finally developed and will soon launch its Gear S2 smartwatch. The wearable gadget is increasingly becoming more popular as different versions of the smartwatch are released. In fact, according to the International Data Corporation (IDC), roughly 72.1 million wearables will be shipped in 2015, compared to a measly 26.4 million units shipped in 2014.
The Gear S smartwatch was launched in late August 2014. However, a recent Instagram photo posted by @Papanosio, better known as Dennis Miloseskia, a vice president of Samsung Design America, viewers got a glimpse at the Samsung Gear S2. The caption reads “Giving the new Samsung Gear S2 a test drive. #samsung #watch #wearable #nextlevel.” The post also exhibited a 2015 Samsung Gadget LookBook, which features more upcoming devices that Samsung will launch in the near future.
Samsung Gear S2: The Present
The new smartwatch is expected to have a rotating bezel, and two buttons. There are currently no smartwatches that have been designed with two buttons. Smart watches typically include one button, a front button or, like the Apple Watch, a crown. The functionalities of these buttons have yet to be revealed. It is anticipated that the device will also include a Samsung Exynos processor clocked at 1.2 GHz. Furthermore, the Samsung Gear S2 will boast 768MB of RAM, which is the highest among other smartwatches, reported Passary.
Functions that the Gear S2 will certainly possess are 3G connection and Samsung’s Tizen operating system as opposed to Android Wear.
The Future
According to the Irish examiner, the Samsung Gear S2 smartwatch may feature a SIM slot to enable users to make calls and connect to data on the device. The Gear S2 is also Samsung’s first smartwatch having a round display. Now, prospective customers are awaiting Samsung’s big reveal. The smartwatch will be presented at IFA (Internationale Funkausstellung) – the largest consumer electronics trade show in the world – in Berlin on September 3rd.
