20 August, 2015
Just when we thought that the Samsung execs were wrapping up the event for the announcement of the Galaxy Note5 and Galaxy S6 edge+, they went out and teased the next-gen Gear smartwatch.

        I like the ui. Seems functional. From initial observations watch looks sleek and miles ahead of Apple watch. I hope the battery life is great too!

          The phone icon and messaging icons, does NOT necessarily mean it will have it's own cellular connection. My old Gear 2 Neo has both those icons, and it will take calls and message, but it does it through the connected phone. But, hopefully they will release multiple variations, one with it's own SIM card (cell connected). and a bluetooth only version.

'Appall' Watch obviously copying Samsung. Samsung is also the first smartwatch maker in the world. Shame on Apple, or specifically 'Appall' Watch, the most appalling watch ever copied by Apple. Beside, keep your digital crown. Samsung never used that at all. We have rotating bezel, the same technology used in divers watch.

                AnonD-364786, 20 Aug 2015UI doesn't look like its taken from apple watch ;-)Yes, they borrowed the circular icons from their own Touchwiz. Apple watch copied their Tizen icons. I have seen the circular icons a lot since Samsung Z(2014) apps icon and even Samsung Galaxy setting menu. They used it on all of their Tizen phones. Tizen is pure Samsung assets.

                            The fact the screaming idiot fanboys can have that argument over who invented circles is deeply depressing.

Tizen OS, which has been shown to use round icons since version 2.0 in early 2013 (plus even if it didn't, it would make a lot more sense to round icons on a round screen rather than square ones)
