Subject Samsung to release a new round Gear smartwatch
Name Administrator Date 2015.04.28 Click 1160

Samsung just posted a new flyer calling the global developer community to get an early access to the software development kit of the company`s next-gen Gear device. From the invitation, it`s pretty clear the new device will be round:

Samsung`s upcoming Gear device will be a smart watch - and will be Samsung`s 6th generation Gear (which is pretty amazing considering that the company`s first-gen Gear was released less than two years ago).

It is not surprising Samsung is adopting a round display this time. We`ve seen several such watches (including the Moto 360, LG`s G Watch R, Huawei`s Watch and others) - and most consumers seem to prefer the classic round watch design. It`s highly likely that Samsung will adopt a circular flexible OLED display, which will be the first such display produced by SDC.
