This means by the end of the year, the top lineup of Galaxy devices will get support for its newest accessory. Earlier this month, Samsung launched the Galaxy Gear in India along with the Note 3. The smartwatch features a 1.9 megapixel shooter on the wristband and Samsung has said that a dedicated collection of apps will also be coming soon after launch.
