Last month, a Verizon-branded variant of the Gear S3 frontier (SM-R765V) passed through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) — and now what's believed to be the carrier's model of the Gear S3 classic (SM-R775V) has appeared in the agency's online database.
What's strange about this filing, however, is that at present the only variant of the Gear S3 with cellular capabilities is the Gear S3 frontier, but the documentation suggest that Verizon's version of the Gear S3 classic will have connectivity for Bluetooth, LTE and WLAN.
Typically, the FCC is the final port of call before a new smartphone, tablet or wearable hits the shelves — so it shouldn't be too much longer until we find out more. It's a little strange to think that there could be an LTE variant of the Gear S3 classic, though, as it wasn't mentioned during Samsung's announcement last year.
