A digital ad booklet published on Samsung's press site gives us a closer look at the new Gear S2 smartwatch that Samsung teased at its Unpacked 2015 event on Thursday.

The round Gear S2 is a departure from Samsung's usual rectangular smartwatches.

Apart from using the rotating bezel to navigate around the Gear S2, few details are known about Samsung's upcoming smartwatch.

Below are a few images of the new device.

These images released by Samsung reveal a little more about how the Gear S2 looks. The model is also holding the new Galaxy Note 5 with a curved back.

These images still don't reveal as much as we'd like about the new Gear S2, but at least we get a better sense of its size.

Just in case you missed Samsung's Thursday Unpacked event, here are some pictures it used to tease the Gear S2. This watch face looks like a radar.

Here's a simpler watch face.

This looks like one of the Gear S2's app menu screens. Some of the icons look a lot like those on the Apple Watch.
