Samsung also purports that battery life is now 2-3 days on the Gear 2, likely thanks to the change in software platform. There also appears to be a hardware home button mounted below the display, although overall industrial design appears relatively unchanged from the original Galaxy Gear. The Gear 2 series adds some new functionality, including a heart rate sensor for health and fitness applications, IR led for controlling appliances with WatchOn, and the ability to change the wrist strap since the camera is now integrated into the body of the watch rather than on the strap. The Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo appear to be primarily differentiated by the presence of a body-mounted camera, with the 2 Neo eschewing the camera and likely coming in at a lower price point. Samsung doesn't call out an SoC specifically, but the Gear 2 is based on a dual core platform with maximum clocks of 1.0 GHz – previously Galaxy Gear was based on the dual core 4212 platform but with one core disabled and a maximum frequency of 800 MHz.

We reviewed the original Android 4.2 based Samsung Galaxy Gear, which offered an interesting combination of unique features in the smartwatch category (a strap mounted camera, Android platform, and bluetooth calling capabilities), but found that battery life left a lot to be desired partly thanks to it running the entire platform on an Exynos 4212. In addition to this, images of the Samsung Galaxy Gear's ( Hands-On) test build running Tizen OS also surfaced online.This morning Samsung dropped some news ahead of its Unpacked 5 event with the announcement of a refresh of its smart watch lineup, the Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo.

Unfortunately, the South Korean giant did not share any details about the schedule of the update release. Last month, a Samsung spokesperson confirmed that the Android OS in the company's first smartwatch, the Galaxy Gear, will be stripped off and will be reloaded with Tizen. The firm is reportedly in discussions with unidentified US, Korean and European telecommunications carriers about a so-called "watch-phone" that is said to be unveiled between this month and next month. Last month, it was reported that Samsung is developing a smartwatch that can make or receive calls without having to be tethered to a mobile phone. The details of the same are not yet known. It has been also mentioned that Samsung's Gear 2 Neo smartwatch, which was introduced along with the Gear 2 smartwatch, is also receiving an update as well. The feature can be active all the time or can be switched on while the user is asleep. The Blocking Mode feature enables users to mute all the notifications when activated. Sammobile notes the new Gear 2 notification feature is called 'Blocking Mode'. The update brings also general stability to the smartwatch and certain improvements to S Health - the details of which are not known. Introduced at this year's Mobile World Congress, the Tizen-based Samsung Gear 2 ( Review) has been given a update that improves the S Health and also introduces a new notification-related feature.īringing the software version from 2.2.1.1 to 2.2.1.2, the update is available via the Gear 2's 'Gear Manager' option.
