The editors didn't like
Incompatible with anything other than a Samsung smartphoneSuffers from a very poor app ecosystem
The price premium over competitors makes it hard to justify the little functionality if offers
Heart rate monitor is slow
Quirky
And serves little use
The camera's placement isn't very optimal
Limited app suppor
Short battery lif
Expensive
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
Pricey. Compatible with Samsung devices only. Lacks apps. Camera is mostly superfluous
Screen doesn't stay lit
Few apps
Difficult wrist strap
UI requires too many swipes
Many features require one of 17 Samsung Galaxy phones or tablets. OK but not great looks. No innovative feature that makes you feel you must own one

Abstract: I've been keen on smartwatches pretty much since day one. I get a lot of emails, texts, and assorted notifications, most of them garbage but some vitally important. Having a glancable screen on my wrist makes life infinitely easier. But smartwatches have ...
Abstract: Samsung upgraded its Galaxy Gear smartwatch with version 2.0 earlier this year that is available across the country priced at Rs 21,500. Much like the Gear, the Gear 2 sports a 1.6 inch Super AMOLED display that offers crisp colors and backed up by outdoo...
The Gear 2 has rectified the biggest problem with its predecessor and now looks and works more like a watch that has fallen out of a StarTrek flying machine that just went over us. It is the smartest of all smartwatches and can seamlessly integrate with y...
More comfortable, better design than the original Galaxy Gear
Expensive, locked to Samsung devices, poor fitness features, still not enough battery life
On its own, the Gear 2 is a good device to show off Samsung's varied capabilities in one device, though the end product feels like it's trying to do too much, and at a price which isn't easy to digest. The limitation to connect only to a Samsung smartphon...
The Samsung Gear 2 is available for a sum of Rs 21,550, which is about the same as the Galaxy Gear launch price. Compared to its predecessor, the Gear 2 offers much more value in terms of features and performance. It's looks and feels better, has a boat-l...
Abstract: Display: The most important part of the Gear 2 is its 1.63 inch SUPER AMOLED display that has got 320 x 320 pixel resolution. The screen looks bright adding a premium feel. Even the touch is responsive. Pairing and UI: I tested out the Gear 2 with Samsung...
Abstract: The new Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo will have a heart rate sensor, a pedometer and various tools to measure exercise, sleep and stress levels. The low-resolution, 2-megapixel camera on the Gear 2 is being moved to the main body; it was on the strap on the origi...
This premium looking smartphone can be used as a personal fitness manger, for standalone entertainment, as a phone and of course as watch. The Samsung Gear 2 is priced at Rs. 22,500 if this seems a lot then the Samsung Gear 2 Neo is a very good option for...
If you're thinking if you should get the Samsung Gear 2 or the Samsung Gear Fit…What I LikeI think that Samsung has improved the usability (more apps, more device compatibility and counting) and usefulness (S Health and more apps) and simple interaction a...

Review: Samsung Gear 2Before I proceed with this review, I have a confession to make: I'm not too keen on smartwatches, at least, not right now. That is, ever since I've attained my Bradley. Samsung's Gear Fit, which I reviewed a few issues back, managed...
