There’s only a few weeks left until the Samsung Gear A smartwatch launches, and the Korean manufacturer has confirmed that it will have a rotating bezel. 

The rotating bezel will allow the user to navigate through the watch, zoom in and out of pictures, switch between apps and much more. SamMobile tweeted images and details about the feature from Samsung’s Tizen Developer Summit.

Other tweets suggest that the bezel will also be used for gaming and have 24 steps surrounding the face.

More about the watch will probably be revealed at Samsung’s August 13 Unpacked event.
