After announcing its new Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 edge+ in New York City this morning, Samsung promised the next big thing is right around the corner.

The South Korean company was referring to its new Gear S2 smartwatch — its first with a round display — which will get its full reveal on September 3.

Samsung has confirmed that its upcoming Gear A smartwatch will have a rotating bezel. Like the Apple Watch’s digital crown, the bezel will allow users to navigate menus, set alarms and timers, zoom in on images and maps, and more.

LG may have been one of Android Wear’s first supporters with its G Watch and upcoming G Watch R, but that doesn’t mean it has no plans to compete against it. The South Korean firm’s website confirms that it is developing a second smartwatch line powered by the webOS platform it acquired from HP back in 2013.

The Samsung Z, a flagship smartphone powered by Samsung’s new Tizen operating system, has reportedly been scrapped for good after missing its scheduled release in Russia last month. Tizen phones are still a part of Samsung’s plans, according to sources familiar with the matter — but it will only be powering budget smartphones.
