We have heard that Samsung intends to adopt Google WearOS for its next smartwatch. In May, Evan Blass a popular popularizer reported that Samsung was testing Smartwatches Gear with WearOS. This should come as no surprise, as the company has already patented the "Galaxy" brand for an upcoming smartwatch. In other words, the last tweet of Ice Universe seems to corroborate with existing leaks.

Samsung has generally opted for TizenOS for its portable devices, but one of the main problems with the operating system is the lack of support for developers. In contrast, WearOS has a universal appeal and many developers create applications for the platform. It is therefore logical that Samsung plans to launch a smartwatch with the help of WearOS in the near future.

Samsung is expected to launch the Gear S4, aka Galaxy Watch, at IFA 2018, which will take place in Berlin from August 31 to September 30, 5.
