It appears like the newest version of Samsung's Gear Fit, dubbed Gear Fit 2, and the Gear IconX are just around the corner. Images of the new fitness band and the wireless earbuds have been inadvertently leaked on the Web ahead of their official introduction.
Specifically, photos of these devices have cropped up on Samsung's S Health website, but Samsung has since deleted the images.
Before Samsung removed the leaked images on the site, however, Wareable managed to grab copies of these devices' photos.
Judging from the images, it seems the Gear Fit 2 looks more watch-like as opposed to its predecessor, the Gear Fit. Moreover, this fitness band sports an all-new textured strap. In the meantime, the leaked Gear IconX photo also appears to confirm the images that surfaced online a few days ago.
Venturebeat reported more than a week earlier that Samsung could be preparing its two newest products in the company's line of Gear accessories, citing a person testing the items. These products include the Gear Fit 2 and Gear IconX.
While the person handed over the photos of these Samsung devices to Venturebeat, the source did not share their full specifications.
Rumor has it, though, that the fitness wristband could come fitted with a 1.84-inch curved Super AMOLED screen. Apart from the curved design, this could likewise sport an ergonomic design. However, what is deemed something special with this wearable device is its rumored dedicated GPS chipset that will likely beef up the accuracy of its distance-tracking functionalities.
The IconX buds, meanwhile, are speculated to be resistant to water and dust. Aside from being housed in a charging case, the pair of cordless, Bluetooth earbuds are said to double as a standalone digital music player and a fitness tracker. One of the IconX buds is purported to be crammed with 4 GB of storage.
Details on how much these devices will cost and when they will hit the store shelves have not been mentioned by the person who is trying out these products.
As with any other rumor, it is best to take this story with a dose of skepticism as there is nothing official yet. We'll be sure to let you know more details about these rumored devices as soon as they become available.
