Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our
little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.
Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet.
But what we do know is:
The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.
What now?
Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside
digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no
server problems there – promised.
Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧
In addition to the Galaxy XR headset that Samsung confirmed to launch soon, the South Koreans were also tipped to develop a smart Galaxy ring. Now, a new filing points to the possibility of Samsung working on different wearable form factors, including a possible bracelet and a pair of glasses.
Spotted from the repository of the UK IPO office (via SamMobile), Samsung filed new trademarks related to its unannounced Galaxy wearables. The listings only revealed the internal monikers of these devices, which were labeled as the Samsung Index, Samsung Circle, and Samsung Insight. At the same time, all three were classified as computer wearables, smartwatches, smart rings, and smartphones.
Apart from the names, there were no details that described the features or functions of each device. However, we can speculate that the Samsung Index may be a similar trademark to the Galaxy Ring that Samsung submitted back in March. This could end up as a standalone tracker like Oura’s smart ring or an accessory for the Galaxy reality headset.
It is very likely that the Samsung Circle might be the equivalent of a solid bracelet as opposed to an adjustable wristband in the form of a watch or fitness tracker. Although the converse could be true, it could also be utilized to improve controls of Samsung’s head-mounted display.
Regarding Samsung Insight, we can only think of the idea of a set of smart glasses or spectacles considering the rather obvious naming scheme. Once again, this might be a region-specific trademark that is similar to the Galaxy Glasses that the firm revealed earlier. Furthermore, the Galaxy Insight could be a lighter and more portable alternative to the upcoming Galaxy XR headset, which may run on Google’s micro XR platform for AR glasses.
Nonetheless, all of these are only mere assumptions. In addition, these new trademarks are not a guarantee that all (or any) of the wearables will eventually materialize or be released in the near future. However, it is exciting to see that there are more wearables on the horizon beyond the smartwatch or headsets that we are currently privy to.
Do you think it is necessary for Samsung to launch a smart Galaxy ring or a bracelet? Will this be a useful and practical accessory for you?
