Germany's Consumer Electronics Show (IFA) to wait until September 5 before the opening, but manufacturers have been unable to restrain, Samsung and LG two South Korean companies announced their own smart watch new products, this is the Apple September 9 new conference, first grab a show?
But look at Samsung and LG Smart watch new products, in addition to some hardware performance improvement, product form and no revolutionary changes, smart watch in the Apple iwatch, still in the melee stage.
Samsung Gear S: Surface screen
Samsung Gear's biggest goal is to show the new development of screen technology on wearable devices, because Gear S uses a curved AMOLED screen, it is the addition of the surface screen that allows gear S screen to do more than the previous generation, with the screen up to 2 inches and the resolution 360* 480 pixels.
In terms of basic functionality, this is still a smart watch that uses the Android kernel, a 3G network, built-in GPS, compass, heart rate test, barometric test and so on, still connected to the phone via Bluetooth.
Samsung Gear S does not have price details, at least until October, when it is only an advance show.
LG G Watch R: more like a watch
Compared to Samsung, it's clear that LG's G Watch R looks more like a watch. But G Watch R is still on the screen, he used a round display, so you can do like the traditional table.
Unlike Android Wear smart watches like Moto 360, G Watch R makes the screen a step closer to the Moto 360 screen where there is a small piece of space that cannot be fully rounded.
The presence of G Watch R is more of a possibility for wearable devices in the display: Upstream suppliers can provide you with a 360-°-round screen! I believe that there will soon be the corresponding domestic products in this regard.
Basic features, G Watch R also nothing to talk about, using the Gaotong Dragon processor, built-in 410mAh battery, support IP67 level Waterproof screen resolution of 320*320 pixels, size 1.3 inches. With 512MB running memory and 4GB fuselage storage space, this is consistent with Samsung Gear S.
Not iwatch's mortal enemy.
It is clear that the emergence of Samsung Gear S and G Watch R is not aimed at sniping at Apple's iwatch, because in product form, smart watch still makes these giants have a headache, in what kind of use scene, the user will have strong demand, no one can say accurate.
Now they are doing more in the technical accumulation and try to show their strength, so as to how much the watch to sell, when to sell, is not the point. Samsung and LG are potential suppliers of Apple's iwatch-related technology.
