What new devices I expect from Samsung IFA 2017 press conference?
We’re not expecting to see any new smartphones from Samsung being showcased in Berlin. Instead, the focus will be on the Gear S4 and Gear Fit2 Pro. Samsung has confirmed the launch of the fourth-generation smartwatch, but the company isn’t telling the exact details. The Gear S4 is expected to come with a more polished design and a bigger battery. The Tizen OS-based Gear S4 will include a 4G LTE modem, like its predecessor. We’re also hearing to see the official announcement related to the Gear Fit2 Pro. The fitness band was leaked last week, and it appears to be the successor to the Gear Fit2.
Samsung might also launch the company’s first connected smart speaker. Samsung has admitted that it is working on a smart speaker, although we still don’t know when it will be officially announced. Samsung’s upcoming smart speaker will compete head-to-head with Amazon Echo, Google Home and Apple HomePod.
