The Gear 2 is at best a second-generation experiment in the nascent wearable category. The design is off-putting — we tried to hide the watch in public — and although it has a suite of features, none of them satisfy a clear need. Some people might value o...
3.5/5 If Samsung hadn't jumped the gun with the Gear 1 then it would have avoided the bad reputation against which it is now forced to struggle. The Galaxy Gear 2 is the smartwatch that Samsung needed to lead with. It works, it's not too bulky, and it'...
Abstract: Samsung Gear ‘smartwatch' has definitely matured since its first launched in 2013. The recently launched Samsung Gear 2 had addressed many of the expected features from its predecessor, as well as adding new things to its horizon.There are some noticeable...

The Samsung Gear 2 smartwatch delivers an improved design, better notifications, a heart rate monitor, and basic fitness tracking offer a lot of extras. It's water-resistant, too
Limited number of apps; poor S-Health fitness app syncing; can only be paired to Samsung phones; camera is an unnecessary extra for the $100 it costs over the Gear 2 Neo
Samsung has made strides with the Gear 2, but this smartwatch is on its own island with few apps and Samsung-only device compatibility. At this point, you're better off waiting for Android Wear....

Comes in a variety of cool colours, Wristband is replaceable, unlike last year's version, The bulky charging cradle is replaced with one a little less complex, Runs Tizen, instead of Android, meaning it's faster, Setup is easy, and as a bonus, you can eve
Battery life isn't too good. Maybe a day (or two) if you hardly use it, Wristband supplied is horribly uncomfortable. Sensitive skin wearers will dislike it intensely, Designed for small wrists, and we do mean small, No obvious way to silence notification
Having never before used a Galaxy Gear, and having little idea what to expect about the new range of Gear devices, I really didn't know how I'd find the Gear 2 in actual use. Truth be told, I didn't really want to review it, because the Pebble left a pret...
Remote control built in; Decent battery life equates to around four days; Bright and colourful screen with great viewing angles; More comfortable wristband than previous generation;
Not enough apps available; More clockfaces needed; Media controller needs to do link up with more media players; Requires a Samsung smartphone to use;
A second attempt at a smartwatch reveals better battery life and a more comfortable fit, but Samsung's Gear watches still need more in them.Sure, they work, and the screen is one of the best examples of any wearable we've ever seen, but unless you rely so...
The Samsung Galaxy Gear 2 is a good device - but not a great one. The improved 3 day battery life (6 if you really want to push it) is a good enough number for now , as charging is becoming expected - although the real winner is going to be able to make ...

After years of trying, Samsung has finally produced a watch worth buying.The Gear S2 is well made, looks great and has some neat features tucked inside its lightweight frame.We also really like the rotating bezel which is intuitive and a lot of fun to use...
