Could the Samsung Gear A look like this concept?

Samsung Gear A conceptWhile quite a few details have emerged so far about the Samsung Gear A, the company’s first round-faced smartwatch, we have yet to see any leaked images of what it could look like. Codenamed Samsung Orbis, it promises to be “a more perfect product” but what that could mean in terms of design and materials used remains to be seen. In the meantime, xsplash from Korea has come up with a concept of what the Sasmung Gear A could look like.

The render is not finished but key elements can already be seen. Aside from the round display, the watch has a single button where the crown normally is. It’s not clear yet from the work-in-progress image that the bezel will rotate. On the back, text confirms wireless charging and some degree of water resistance.

Some rumours have suggested that the Samsung Gear A could also work as a keychain, necklace or armband. This suggests that the watch itself will be detachable from the band so that it can be popped into other accessories. This render does not show how this might work.

It will be interesting to see how this Samsung Gear A concept will look when it is finished. Perhaps new rumours will emerge as well to give us more details on what Samsung has planned when it comes to finishes and materials.

The latest rumours suggest that the Samsung Gear A will launch alongside the Galaxy Note 5 at IFA 2015 in early September.
