Samsung Tizen Android Smart wearables

Following Samsung's announcement that the Galaxy Note7 has been permanently discontinued, there were reports from Korean media that the Note7 debacle will have a negative impact on the company's future projects, many of which will get delayed.

However, according to a new report, that's not true - at least in the case of the tech giant's Gear S3 smartwatch. Citing "Samsung Insiders," the report says that the Tizen-powered wearable is on schedule for a November launch, although an exact date is yet to be confirmed.

There have been reports that the Gear S3 will be launched in mid-November, and South Korea, the US, and select European countries will get it first. The wearable is also up for pre-order in Canada, with a shipping date of November 18.

I surf with my Gear S2 all the time. And the word swimproof comes from Apple, because Apple considers itself is too good to use a common word like waterproof or water resistant. What you're looking for is the IP (Ingress Protection.) And the inclusio...

Agreed...looks like a winner...but nobody wants a sports watch that has to be removed before swimming...and nobody wants a luxury watch that is afraid of the water...see where I'm going here? Sam apparently doesn't.
