After Sony and Google, Samsung is also reported to be working on its own version of a smart watch. Though Samsung has not said anything officially about its smart watch, it has filed a trademark for an accessory under the name ‘Galaxy Gear,’ which is now speculated to be a smart watch.
The trademark has been spotted on the website of USPTO (United States Patent and Trade Office).
Earlier, Samsung’s executive vice president Lee Young Hee hinted at the existence of the smart watch by saying, “We’ve been preparing the watch product for so long. We are working very hard to get ready for it. We are preparing products for the future, and the watch is definitely one of them.â€
However, what features and functionalities Samsung will be adding to the watch is still to be seen. Samsung’s smart watch is also expected to come with newer functionality like a miniature IR remote control.
