Yoon did not offer any further details into the smartwatch, but if a recent trademark filing is any indication, the device will be called the Galaxy S Fitness. Samsung trademarked the name in the US this week, along with other names like the Gear Now and Gear Solo. The Gear Now and Gear Solo will likely be based on Tizen considering the lack of the Galaxy branding, but the Galaxy S Fitness might turn out to be Samsung’s first Android Wear smartwatch.
While Yoon mentioned that an Android Wear smartwatch will launch later thios year, it is unlikely the manufacturer will unveil the device anytime soon, as it would affect sales of the Gear 2 and Gear Fit. It is feasible that the device would launch at the same time as the next version of the Galaxy Note. If the device will in fact be called the Galaxy S Fitness, it will be interesting to see the hardware it will feature. What are your thoughts on it? What features would you like to see on a smartwatch running Android from Samsung? Let us know in the comments below.
