Samsung is taking the wraps off of yet another new smartwatch, but the Gear S (not Solo)has a twist: there's a 3G modem inside. While it may not be especially fast, that means that even when it's outside of the range of a connection from a Bluetooth-connected phone or WiFi, it can send and receive messages or make calls. It has a 2-inch AMOLED screen with an onscreen keyboard for the messaging part, and there's a dual-core 1GHz CPU inside along with GPS and motion sensors for fitness tracking. It runs Tizen instead of Android, with pedestrian navigation available from from Nokia's HERE and support for Facebook. That's not the only new item either, in the run up to IFA next week Samsung is also bringing the Gear Circle headset that pairs with a phone over Bluetooth, letting users hear notifications, use voice commands or listen to music through the earbuds.
