WearablesNewfound evidence is lending more credibility to the idea that Samsung is developing one or more Galaxy smartwatches that run on Google’s Wear OS platform as opposed to Tizen. Last week we discussed two codenames — Wise and Fresh — that seem to be related to two upcoming Galaxy smartwatches, but there seems to be more to this story than we initially thought.
Is Merlot still in development?
We’re fairly confident that the codenames Wise and Fresh correspond to two Galaxy smartwatch models that are currently in development, but we’re not as certain about Merlot. As some of you might remember, the kernel source code for the Galaxy S20 was released a year ago, which means that Merlot — as a codename — is relatively old.
Either way, it’s now more obvious than ever that Samsung is, or at least has considered turning to Watch OS recently, and a new Galaxy watch powered by Google’s platform could be released before the end of the year.
