Two Samsung Gear S2 versions stop by the FCC, no cellular radio in sight
Although the FCC listings don't tell us too much about the SM-R720 and the SM-R732, they do reveal that neither of these devices will come with cellular connectivity. Instead, they will use the more traditional connectivity option (for a smartwatch, at least), which is pairing up with a smartphone through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
If you're into the design of the Samsung Gear S2 but really want a stand-alone smartwatch that can place calls directly from your wrist or browse the web without relying on a connected smartphone, a tiny glimmer of hope still exists. Previous information suggested that Samsung is actually working on three separate versions. The one that is missing from the recently-discovered FCC listings will allegedly bear the model number SM-R730, and this might be the version that brings the often-rumored cellular radio.
With IFA 2015 right around the corner, it's probably safe to assume that we'll find out more about the Samsung Gear S2 and all of its variants next week at the 2015 edition of Berlin's yearly consumer electronics event.
