The editors liked

  • 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
  • And it's actually useful
  • Rather than just a novelty. Being able to q
  • 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
  • And an Undo po
  • Bulky desig
  • Unwieldy wrist stra
  • Android Wear still needs wor
  • 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
  • Battery delivers a day of usage at the most
  • Battery life
  • Slower to charge than LG G Watch
  • Terrible clasp system (Fitbit like)
  • One day battery life
  • Display just ok in direct sunlight

  • La Samsung Gear Live est une montre connectée qu'on finit par apprécier avec le temps. Ses notifications sont vraiment pratiques au quotidien et l'efficacité des commandes vocales de Google Now rend la fonction très agréable à utiliser… plutôt loin de la...

  • Une bonne finition, Un écran de qualité, Android Wear, simple et avec du potentiel, Résistant à l'eau
  • Un bracelet très moyen, Où est passé le port infra-rouge ? Dommage, Quelques bugs irréguliers (jeunesse d'Android Wear ?)
  • Que penser de cette première itération d'Android Wear ? Le système est relativement simple à utiliser, il ne m'a fallu que 5 minutes pour cerner les subtilités de l'interface. L'expérience utilisateur a été travaillée, et cela se sent. Les interfaces sont...

  • Bel design, Buon display
  • Prezzo
  • In molti ancora hanno difficoltà a capire il vero senso di dispositivi come questo: il Samsung Gear Live , però, sembra essere davvero interessante e il sistema Android Wear promette davvero bene! Probabilmente il prezzo è ancora un po' più alto...

  • Schermo sempre acceso, Si integra perfettamente con i servizi Google, Google Now al polso con attivazione vocale, Tutte le notifiche a portata di mano
  • Autonomia esigua, Molte azioni si eseguono solo a voce, Scarsa visibilità sotto il sole, La chiusura del cinturino non è perfetta
  • Samsung Gear Live è l'estensione di Android al vostro polso. Le notifiche e la potenza di Google Now sul vostro braccio, in un "corpo" tutto sommato ben disegnato e con un software già abbastanza funzionale per essere appena nato. Ci sono dei di...

  • Abstract:  Dopo i primi giorni di test e tanti "smanettamenti" e la video prova dell'LG G Watch , il primo Android Wear disponibile in Italia, eccoci con il test del Gear Live, prodotto "gemello" a livello software ma in grado di offrire un qualcosa in più a livello...

  • EinleitungLG konnte sich mit Auslieferung der G Watch am 4. Juli den Titel der ersten verfügbaren Android-Wear-Uhr sichern. Seit 8. Juli liefert Google nun auch die Gear Live von Samsung aus. Weil das Wearable-Betriebssystem Android Wear abgesehen von der...

  • Das „Android Wear“-Betriebssystem macht die Gear Live deutlich komfortabler und freundlicher als die Gear 2 mit Tizen. Freundlicher deshalb, weil die Anzeige farbenfroher ist und komfortabler, weil die Bedienung per Google-Sprachsteuerung einfach unglaubl...

  • Abstract:  Het ronde scherm van de LG G Watch R oogt fraai en het ronde knopje aan de zijkant geeft het net even wat meer de uitstraling van een gewoon horloge. De zwarte behuizing is van metaal gemaakt, waardoor het geheel stevig en duurzaam aanvoelt. Minpunt van h...

  • De smartwatches van Samsung zien er telkens dunner en mooier uit maar ook deze Gear Live is nog verre van perfect. Zowel op het gebied van hardware als software is er nog werk aan de winkel. Het grootste nadeel is de batterij. Het Super AMOLED-scherm is ...

  • Abstract:  De Samsung Gear Live (SM-R3820 / SM-R382) is qua design vrijwel gelijk aan de voorgaande Samsung Galaxy Gear 2 , maar het Tizen-besturingssysteem is op deze smartwatch vervangen door het Android Wear-besturingssysteem. Dankzij Android Wear heb je op het h...
