While we still wait for the official unveiling of the
Samsung's first wearable tech device, the Galaxy Gear
smart watch, images of one of the prototypes of the
Galaxy Gear smart watch has been spotted ahead of
the September 4 launch, which has now been
confirmed thanks to a company official.
Venture Beat has posted some images of the alleged
prototype of the smart watch that it claims are stills
from the Galaxy Gear promo video that has been made
by an independent team which is reportedly working
closely with Samsung. It also claims to have spent
some time with it.
The site informs that the smart watch is about 3-
inches in size diagonally, and has a square OLED
display, as reported earlier. Though, the resolution has
not been revealed. The site further notes that the smart
watch would come in Dark Black and Grey colours,
however the final version could be different, it
suggests. Earlier, it was reported that the Samsung
Galaxy Gear smart watch will come in multiple colours.
The site also notes that the smart watch camera would
come handy in measuring the health data.
However, Gigaom claims that the final version of the
smart watch is different and more finished than the
device shown in the leaked image citing some sources.
Gigaom further notes some of the features of the
upcoming smart watch including an OLED display
which will measure around 2.5-inch diagonally and
about 3-inch including the case. The smart watch is
expected to be powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core
Samsung Exynos 4212 processor along with Mali-400
MP4 GPU. Other features detailed include a camera,
microphone and speakers integrated into the strap,
NFC, and Bluetooth. The Galaxy Gear smart watch is
said to run Android 4.3 Jelly Bean with the keyboard
feature turned off. The site also notes that the smart
watch will need a Samsung device with Companion
app store to install apps on the watch. The battery
backup of the device is said to be around 24 hours
with normal use and 10 hours with active usage.
Earlier, @evleaks published screenshots of the alleged
Gear Manager Companion app for the Galaxy Gear
smart watch on Twitter.
