Samsung Gear S2 gets updated with improved battery life and new UI
Samsung has released a new software update for the Gear S2 smartwatch that was launched back in October 2015.
The new firmware sports version designation R730AUCU3CQK1 and weighs a measly 6.79MB in size.
According to the official changelog, the update brings in improved battery life and implementation of stability code for device security, but early adopters claim it also comes with a new UI which is the same as the Galaxy Watch Active2.
That said, the new update now lets you clear all the notifications at once. Previously, they had to be cleared one by one.
It's unclear what region is currently getting the update, but you can check for it by opening the Galaxy Wearable app on your smartphone, and tapping the Download and install option in the Watch software update menu.
