Samsung Gear S4 (the Galaxy Watch) is the
long-anticipated successor to the popular Gear S3 smartwatch, and it is fast
approaching, according to the latest reports. We already know quite a bit about
the Gear S4, such as the fact that it may not actually be called 'Gear S4', but
rather 'Galaxy Watch', and that it will likely be available in two sizes at
launch, much like the Apple Watch.
As was the case with previous Samsung smartwatches,
the company is expected to launch two versions of the Gear S4 – a sportier
Frontier model and a more traditional Classic version to cater to different
tastes. What we just learned, however, is that the Classic model will likely be
available in a new color.
Up until now, Samsung watches have mainly been
either black or silver, but according to anonymous sources familiar with the
matter, cited by SamMobile, the Gear S4 Classic will also be available in gold.
According to the report, the sporty model may only be available in black, while
the classic model will be available in silver and gold.
This will mark the first time Samsung launches a
smartwatch in three different colors. If previous rumors are to be believed,
the Gear S4 may offer an unprecedented level of variety with its different size
and color options. The long-awaited successor to the Gear S3 may be just around
the corner, with a rumored reveal set for August and coinciding with the
unveiling of the Note 9.
