Samsung outs its upcoming Galaxy Watch by accident

Samsung outs its upcoming Galaxy Watch by accidentSamsung may have just spilled (some of) the beans on its next wearable: CNET reported that it spotted a listing for the Galaxy Watch on the company's site for a brief while. Sadly, there's not much else to dig into, especially now that the page has been taken down. We do know that Samsung is moving away from the 'Gear' moniker it's used for its previous wearables since 2013, and that the device will be available in a 42mm rose gold version. CLICK ITOh, and it'll almost certainly support wireless charging; we know this from a leak of Samsung's Wireless Charger Duo, whose box art mentions the ability to juice up a phone and a Galaxy Watch simultaneously. It's still unclear whether the new device will feature Google's Wear OS, or Samsung's own Tizen platform.

Samsung Just Accidentally Leaked Its New Galaxy Watch - And What It Means

as mentioned in Samsung Galaxy Watch is all but confirmed as the name of the company's latest smartwatch to take on the Apple Watch, Fitbit Ionic and others. Samsung's commitment to smart watches has been steady and solid from its initial Samsung Galaxy Gear in 2013 through several iterations with long, rectangular watch faces to the most recent models with circular displays. But the Samsung Galaxy Watch is different. There have been rumors that a Wear OS watch was coming. Since Wear OS works with circular faces, it supports the idea that this will be a Wear OS watch.

Samsung accidentally just leaked the Galaxy Watch on its own website

Samsung is just weeks away from another big Unpacked event where it's expected to unveil a new Galaxy Note 9 smartphone, and a brand-new Galaxy Watch wearable to go alongside. We've received slightly less information about the Galaxy Watch, as you'd expect for a wearable that will generate decidedly less hype. But thankfully, Samsung's leaky ship has filled in yet another blank, as a listing for a Galaxy Watch showed up on Samsung's US website this afternoon. The listing says that this is the Galaxy Watch (42mm) in Rose, and it's the Bluetooth version. Other rumored details include the suggestion that the Galaxy Watch will run Tizen, Samsung's own operating system, rather than Android Wear.
