Samsung has been showing off their Samsung Gear S2 smartwatch quite a bit lately, in preparation for the launch during IFA 2015 on 3rd September.
Thanks to an Instagram image by Dennis Miloseski, a Samsung VP who is Head of Studio, Samsung Design America as well as the Head of Samsung Mobile UXCA division, we now know what Samsung’s first round smartwatch will look like on someone’s wrist.
The new Gear has a more classy yet simple appearance; looking a lot like a regular watch without giving away the fact that its actually a pretty high-tech wearable.
What we know so far about it is that it will have a 360×360 touchscreen, an Exynos 3472 chipset with a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 768MB RAM with 4GB storage, Bluetooth 4.1 and a 250mAh battery. The Gear S2 will also have a GPS, gyro, accelerator, barometer and a heart rate monitor as well.The entire package will be run by a special version of Samsung’s Tizen.
So do you think Samsung’s new offering can topple the Apple Watch? We’ll find out soon enough.
