Is Samsung preparing to launch a new SmartWatch? A recent post on the company blog featured an image showing a round SmartWatch, with the caption: "Get ready for the next Gear."
As we can see, the company is preparing the presentation of the first Circular SmartWatch Gear.
In addition, the company's blog says it will soon release a software development kit (SDK) for third-party developers.
Ο JK Shin, Διευθύνων Σύμβουλος και Επικεφαλής του τμήματος IT & Mobile Communications of Samsung Electronics stated:
"Samsung has been actively developing wearable devices as a leader in the fast-growing class.
Through careful and progressive innovation, Samsung embraces the open cooperation for the enrichment of systems with applications that will create unique experiences for users.”
Developers who are interested can sign up for the project website, from here. You will be able to have a first access in the SDK, and thus you will be able to start building its applications Gear.
The announcement of Samsung's new SmartWatch coincides (randomly) with Apple's first day of sale.
The company's move was rather expected, as its first SmartWatch was released in a hurry to catch up with Apple's upcoming device. So although it was the first device to release the results were not so impressive εντυπω
