Samsung Gear S


Here's another Smartwatch churned by the Korean-giant! The Samsung Gear S is brilliantly designed and is running on Samsung's Tizen OS just like the other Gear smartwatches (except the Gear Live). This is Samsung's first smartwatch that has it's own connectivity and by that I mean it has 3G connectivity which basically means this smartwatch can run on it's own. It can also be connected via WiFi which is amazing since this is a watch and not a phone. The Gear S also sports a 2" curved Super AMOLED display and a 300 mAh battery, on paper, that can run for up to 2 days. The Gear S will be available globally in phases starting October.

Samsung's first Tizen running smartphone, the Samsung Z


Back in June 2, 2014, Samsung has announced the first Tizen OS running smartphone and is dubbed as the Samsung Z. The device unfortunately (I think) got a silent launching. The device is running Tizen 2.2.1 and if you try to look at the device it resembles Samsung's Wave line of devices which ran the Bada platform. The one thing you will notice immediately on this device is that it is made with premium materials, or at least it looks like it. The rear panel of the device looks like it is made of leather but it could be just fauz leather just like the Note 3. Anyway, Samsung is expected to make the device available in Russia in the 3rd quarter of this year and will be launched on other regions thereafter.

Samsung makes vertical display orientation possible to the Samsung Gear Fit


When the Samsung Gear Fit was announced, it only had one display orientation available for those who will be buying the said smartband. As the public voiced out their concern of wearing a smartband with an orientation that is perpendicular of how you actually look at a watch on your wrist reached Samsung, the people over at South Korea went back to the drawing board. The Gear Fit will eventually get the vertical orientation we all wanted. So, thank you Samsung! for listening.

Samsung Gear Fit + Infographic

So here's my very late post about the Samsung Gear Fit, Samsung's first SmartBand and the world's first device that is not a smartphone or phablet to sport a curved AMOLED display. The Gear Fit works just like the Gear 2 but it is just a band instead of a watch and the Gear 2 have more features in it than the Fit. But regardless, the Gear Fit will do its job and will perform as what Samsung has promised. It is water resistant with IP67 certification and can notify you on whatever is going on with your smartphone. The Gear Fit, like the Gear 2 runs on Samsung's Tizen OS and is fully compatible with their Galaxy line of devices.

MWC 2014: Samsung Gear 2 and the Gear 2 Neo


Samsung, ahead of their Unpacked event at the Mobile World Congress 2014, has announced the successor to the Galaxy Gear, which was announced last year together with the Galaxy Note III. Their are two new smart watches from the Korean giant these are the Samsung Gear 2 and the Gear 2 Neo. These smart watches goes away from Android and actually runs on Samsung's own Tizen OS. I am pretty sure that these smart watches will still work fine with an Android device since, so far, there are no Tizen mobile devices announced yet.
