The latest addition to the Galaxy family is Samsung’s incredibly slick looking Gear smartwatch

The future has arrived, we’re getting a whole range of gadgets that we were promised we’d see, and while we’re still waiting on our jetpacks to arrive in the post, the smartwatch that allows us to take our phonecalls Michael Knight-style is here.

Sony have had their go at it and Samsung’s latest gadget is a similar idea, but with a slightly more futuristic twist.

According to Mashable, Lee Young-hee, VP of Samsung’s mobile business, confirmed that the device will be launched at an event in Berlin in September, and personally, we can’t wait to get one to try it out.

We’re presuming that, similar to the Sony version, this will be pushed to pair with the Galaxy Note, so that you can take calls, read emails, or check notifications without having to whip out a baaaysht of a phablet from your manbag.
