Google's Android Wear software for computerized wristwatches isn't so much about innovation as it is an effort at simplification.

The technology giant is planning an event in Russia in the coming weeks to introduce the phone.

The smartphone maker has slashed prices of the Galaxy S5 and offered a gift pack worth $600 in a bid to boost sales.

Samsung unveiled two new computerised wristwatches with health sensors and related fitness features.

Samsung did not announce a 'Tizen' phone, but it made a pitch for developers to create apps for the mobile operating system.
