Samsung outs Gear S2 smartwatch 

Samsung outs three new versions of its seventh smartwatch release. The Gear S2 smartwatch comes in classic, standard, and 3G. The classic model features a black case and black leather band. The standard version features a dark gray case and matching rubber band or silver case with white rubber band. And the 3G version has the same design of the standard but with 3G cellular network capabilities. Each version features an 11.4-millimeter thick watch with 1.2-inch diameter touch display (360 x 360 resolution). They run on a 1GHz dual-core processor, 512MB RAM, and 4GB internal storage space. Samsung promises a two- to three-day battery life. You can charge it wirelessly. It comes with NFC, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth connectivity options. And as mentioned before, it runs on Tizen. 

You can navigate the interface by rotating the bezel or use the dedicated Home and Back buttons. It'll come with a 24-hour fitness activity log, similar to the Apple Watch, and help you track your fitness goals. No word on pricing and availability yet but we should hear more about it from IFA.
