The Gear Live—or more specifically
Android Wear—is already capable of doing more (and looking good doing it) than any other smartwatch out there. The software has tremendous potential

Beautifu
Always-on displa
Built-in heart-rate monito
Accurate and fairly fast voice recognition
A fun gadget
The Gear Live has a clean metal body
More features for the price than the LG watch
Works with many Android phones (4.3 or later)
Has impressive Google Voice recognition
And could have an interesting variety of apps sooner than later
Nifty Google Now functionality. Heart-rate monitor. Works with standard watchbands.
The right price
More interesting industrial design than the G Watch
Better display specs than G Watch
Slick design
Growing number of supported apps
Changeable wrist band
An efficient way to deal with notifications. Raises voice commands to a new high—especially sending text messages or asking Google Now for something. Not unpretty. I expect appmakers to figure out some cool new interactions down the road
Durable build quality
Display decent in standard light
Comfortable to wear
Always on Google Now access
Material design gives the platform a flowy look & feel
Sophisticated design that mimics a premium timepiece
Uses the same interchangeable bands as the Gear 2
Great display
Comfortable
Works with any Android Smartphone running Android 4.3 or higher
Excellent voice accuracy despite background noise
The longer you use it the better it gets
The editors didn't like
It feels like a beta. Some of the flaws we've already mentioned just seem so obvious that it makes you feel like the product was rushed out the door
Which it probably was. Android Wear needs more consistency and speed in voice recognition

Screen hard to read in sunlight
Short battery life
Lack of features
Terrible battery life
A display that doesn't work in bright sunlight
A strange card-based notification system that doesn't always pop up with the info you want
Annoying snap-on charger that's not easy to attach
Short battery life. Few apps available. Bulky. Android Wear lacks a Back button. Not a particularly comfortable fit
Almost illegible display in sunlight
Annoying strap and charging adapter
Poor battery life
Average battery life
Annoying charging dock
No IR blaster
Terrible battery life. Crummy charger. It listens well
But it can't play audio. Nor can it take a picture or run a video chat. Screen is too dim for sunny days. Blips on and off awkwardly in the dark if you forget to mute it
Near impossible to see in bright sun
No light sensor for automatic display brightness adjustments
Heart rate sensor near usele
Android Wear lacks depth beyond Google Now integration

Abstract: The Gear Live is the best smartwatch I've ever used--but that's not a remarkable achievement considering all the crappy-to-middling efforts we've seen from Samsung, Sony and Qualcomm. If I were being generous, I'd say Samsung finally landed on a simple, w...

Every smartwatch Ive tested Ive removed from my wrist the instant I finished writing it up, and Ive never looked back. The Gear Live will be the first time that I continue wearing it, and pretty enthusiastically. Its very exciting, and $200 is really...

There's a reason why fitness trackers like the Jawbone Up and Fitbit Flex are so popular: they do just a few things and do them well. Android Wear, on the other hand, tries to be everything at once — a digital assistant, a notification manager, and a fitn...

El Samsung Gear Live o, para ser más concretos, Android Wear es capaz de más funciones y de lucir mejor que cualquier otro smartwatch hasta la fecha. El software tiene un potencial tremendo y es útil. Poder chequear el correo u otros mensajes desde la muñ
Da la sensación de ser una beta. Algunos de los fallos son tan evidentes que parece que el producto se ha sacado a toda prisa, y probablemente sea así. Los ingenieros de Google necesitan echarle más horas a Android Wear. El botón de deshacer es fundamenta
Cada smartwatch que he probado hasta ahora ha acabado en un cajón al poco de terminar su análisis. El Gear Live es la excepción y, pese a sus fallos, ha logrado entusiasmarme. Su precio (200 dólares) es elevado, pero razonable.Pese a ello, nuestro consejo...

Apparence plutôt haut de gamme, Ecran plus net que la G Watch, Waterproof, Compatible avec tout Androids (4.3 et plus), Choix d'applis grandissant
Echec du socle de recharge, Pas aussi confortable que la LG, Autonomie d'un jour
Avec seulement deux concurrents sur le marché Android Wear, il est facile de se distinguer. Samsung est à peine devant LG, grâce à son écran plus net et son moniteur de rythme cardiaque. Proches en termes de prix et de caractéristiques, le choix se fera s...
