Samsung held its Tizen Developer event this morning and supplied details about the upcoming Gear A smartwatch. The company has confirmed that the new smartwatch will feature a round display with a rotating bezel. This will provide the smartwatch with a unique way of scrolling, and zooming in and out. This is a similar tool to the digital crown on the Apple Watch.
More specifications include 360×360 display resolution, Exynos 3472 dual-core processor with 768MB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage, and a 250mAh battery. It will also likely include various sensors such as Bluetooth 4.1, WiFi (802.11 b/g/n), gyroscope, GPS, barometer and possibly a heart rate monitor. In order to use the smartwatch, you must pair it with a recent Samsung phone initially because it runs the company’s Tizen software. Then you’re good to go.
The smartwatch will presumably debut alongside the Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge Plus at Samsung’s August 13 event.
