Samsung round smartwatch finally confirmed (again)

April 10, 2020

The Samsung round smartwatch is finally confirmed (again)! I've been talking about this for months, but it looks like we are getting closer to an official launch.

The Samsung round smartwatch will have a main objective: to compete with the Motorola Moto 360 smart health connected watch. Because yes, Samsung has never proposed a watch of this form… It is on its Twitter account SamsungExynos that the brand presented a preview of the watch interface.

You can also see a circular symbol on a woman’s arm. The legend accompanying the photo explains: "Using your heart rate, your watch in Exynos can provide precise training information to help you progress."

This round smartwatch, codenamed Orbis, was not presented at the last MWC 2015, as one might think. Note: the Gear 2 and the Gear 2 Neo also run on Exynos while the Gear Live and the Gear S are on Snapdragon 400.

In short, not a lot of information but a second nice confirmation! Already in the press release "Get ready for the next Gear", Samsung had given many clues and explained taking its time to offer a round smart health watch of the most perfect.
