According to some reports, Samsung is expected to unwrap its first smartwatch based on the Android Wear operating system at the Google I/O conference this week. Android Wear is an operating system by Google crafted specifically for smartwatches and other wearbles and was first unveiled in March this year.
Samsung is reported to be one of the first gadget manufactures to introduce a smartwatch based on the operating system. Even though there have been no official statements from Samsung about the release or announcement of the smartwatch or it’s specs, it is expected to have very much similar features with that of the previous Samsung wearables.
According to a report on CNET, “Samsung has been working on an Android Wear smartwatch that uses Samsung’s own chips, as well as another model built off of processors from Qualcomm, one person said. It’s unclear which version Samsung will show at Google I/O. Android Wear is Google’s operating system for smartwatches and other wearable devices.”
Samsung’s first version of smartwatch was the Galaxy Gear and run Android operating system. But it consumed too much battery. Therefore, Samsung switched from Android to it’s own operating system called the Tizen on it’s subsequent releases of smartwatches i.e. the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit.
According to reports, LG and Motorolla are also companies that are expected to reveal their first smartwatches based on the Android Wear operating system at the conference.
Google I/O is a two days’ developer conference in San Fransisco. Starting from the year 2008, it has been held annually and this year’s conference will be held from June 25th to June 26th.
