Video: Watch IFA 2013: Samsung unveils Galaxy Gear smartwatch live This livestream has now ended. While smart watches are yet to pique many consumers' interest, there has been a notable increase in attention for the device after the Pebble broke all targets on its Kickstarter crowd-sourcing fund. Samsung is about to join the fray with their Galaxy Gear, which is expected to be unveiled during the electronics company's presentation at Berlin's famous IFA trade show. Samsung's rumored smartwatch, much like Google's Glass headset, is said to be deeply integrated with users's smartphones, providing a second screen for notifications and quick compositions, so that users don't have to reach for their pockets or handbags. The watch is expected to come with a 2.5-inch, 320 x 320 OLED display, which Lee Young Hee - the company's executive vice president - confirmed last week will not be flexible, contrary to earlier speculation.
