Samsung named as the #1 Smartwatch vendor

 
There is lots of over-hype about the Apple watch following the Apple event, but like many other Linux enthusiasts, I couldn’t care less. According to the analyst firm Statista, Samsung is the number one vendor for Smartwatches.
Samsung has spear-headed Smartwatch development with their Gear line up of watches, with the Samsung Gear S being the latest and very much the greatest of them, getting them 17.65% market share with 1.2 million units sold in 2014. Next on the horizon might be the Orbis Tizen smartwatch, but there are no release details at present.
