Samsung's Gear S2 should have been the best smartwatch ever. Instead it's a mess
The day the physical SIM card disappears is slowly getting closer. Last year, we heard that Samsung, Apple, and various mobile carriers were working to create a new standard for embedded or eSIMs (programmable SIMs that allow you to switch carriers without swapping the physical card in your device).
Samsung is about to announce its most recent smartwatch, the Gear S2, in India, which was launched at the IFA Expo last year in Berlin. The Tizen OS powered smartwatch was launched in Europe first, which later saw the availability in the United States. Now the company is planning to bring the stylish watch to the Indian audience. The smartwatch is expected to be launched this month in the country.
Samsung announced at CES 2016 plans to expand its Pay platform to new markets, including Australia, Brazil, and Singapore. As well as launching Samsung Pay in the aforementioned markets, the company will also introduce the platform onto Gear S2 smartwatches.
