Hoping to gain first-mover advantage in the wearable computing/smart watch segment, Samsung is aiming to launch the often leaked Samsung Galaxy Gear at IFA next week.
The smart watch will reportedly be offered in 6GB and 8GB variants, it will sport a 2.5-inch OLED touch-display with a 250x250 pixel resolution and will have a 10-hour battery life.
Other neat features are imbedded strap speakers, a 720p front-facing camera all of which will be powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM. While we've seen various mockups of the smart watch, Twitter tipster @Evleaks has posted screens of the Galaxy Gear app. The screen shows a way to connect watch to smartphone via NFC as well as various settings and controls. Legit? Looks like we only have to wait a few days to find out.
