[New Tech] Meet The New Samsung Gear S2 Watch



The picture at the top of the page is of a new Samsung smartwatch that it teased during its big launch of the Galaxy Note 5 on Thursday. Engadget informs us that the new watch will be called the Gear S2 and it will run on Samsung’s own Tizen platform just like the original Gear S did.

In case you need a reminder, this is what the original Gear S looked like when it launched last year:

And then the Apple Watch came out and it featured a home screen with app icons that looked like this:
