Samsung is planning to release the new smart watch equipped with a universal subscriber identity module, or USIM, through SK Telecom, Korea’s biggest telecommunications vendor, according to those close to the matter.
The Korean tech company, which on Monday released the software development kit, or SDK, for its Tizen-based Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo, expects application developers to roll out new apps to help build an ecosystem for wearables.
The Samsung Gear 2, the Samsung Gear 2 Neo and Samsung Gear Fit are expected to hit the shelves as early as this month in the global market.
