Samsung has been gearing up for its announcement of its next-generation smartwatch. FCC filings have already pre-confirmed that it will not be called the Samsung Gear S4, but the Samsung Galaxy Watch. Todays leak confirms this, along with the model number that we saw in those FCC filings.
The leak happened on Samsungs website but has since been taken down. First spotted by CNET, the Galaxy Watch was seen in a device comparison chart next to the Gear S2. We see the watch in Rose Gold and a model number of SM-R810NZDAXAR. This corresponds with the model number SM-R8XX scheme spotted last week.
