Samsung unveils rose gold and platinum editions of Gear S2 watches

 

Samsung has announced plans to launch blinged-out versions of their Gear S2 smart watches in 18K rose gold and platinum plating.

In addition to a facelift, the new watches will feature NFC technology, allowing wearers to pay for purchases with Samsung Pay and a scan of the wrist.

The rose gold watch will come with an ivory leather band, while the platinum case will feature a black band.

The devices will come preloaded with CNN, Bloomberg, eBay, ESPN, Uber and Voxer apps.

The company also said they plan to make watches compatible with iOS later this fall.

The new Gear S2 watches will hit the market in February 2016
