Previously on SlashGear we had a peek at some specifications of a device we'd been told was code-named "Gear A". This device was – and is – a round-faced smartwatch that'll run TIZEN. This is Samsung's own smart device software, one that they've got developers working with for new apps and connections to all devices.

The video you're about to see was captured at the end of Samsung's Unpacked event for the Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge Plus. Here Samsung suggests that they'll be pushing the envelope with the watch the way they created a new category of smartphone when they first revealed the Galaxy Note in 2011.
