At the recently held Tizen Development Summit in Bangalore, India to promote its Tizen operating system, Samsung revealed a number of important features of the Gear A smartwatch. Samsung believes that a new working system could possibly be the bridge between the function telephone and the smartphone. The rotatable bezel, or a term for the metallic outlines around the watch face, will be used to navigate the interface easier and zoom in and out of photos. A heart rate monitor, Global Positioning System and barometer sensors are also expected, along with the usual Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity. Samsung noted that the smartwatch will run on a 250mAh battery.

SamMobile is attending the Tizen Developer Summit in India this week, where Samsung has been talking about devices like the Gear A. With some interesting new features and specs, there have been quite a speculation around the smartwatch.

From the Galaxy Gear, which came out in 2013 to the Gear S that was released in November last year, the company has only made smartwatches with square screens.

There is a lot of speculation about what features the Samsung Galaxy Gear A will have, but the following seem most certain, if not confirmed. Clearly “related” units are going past simply smartphones and tablets with TVs and wearables now within the combine aside from different residence home equipment and devices that would additionally probably come underneath the Tizen umbrella. On the Apple Watch, the digital crown does the very same things the newly announced rotatable bezel is expected to do.

The characteristics of Samsung Electronics’ next smart watch are being slowly unveiled, even though its launch date is unknown.
