  • Anno 2016 a smartwatch cannot be labeled unmissable and essential. It's definitely a nice gadget to have, but you'll get through the day just fine without one, without ever feeling that you miss something. Manufacturers have realized that marketing a sm...

  • The 3G version of the Gear S2 has all the features and design of Samsung's Wi-Fi-only S2 smartwatch, but adds a speakerphone and built-in GPS along with full standalone phone and data service
  • It's more expensive, requires a connected data plan to pair with, and runs out of battery life quickly on cellular. It's bulkier, too. Also, the Gear S2 3G doesn't have that many great apps, and it doesn't yet work with iPhones
  • Samsung's cellular-enabled smartwatch adds some interesting features to the Gear S2, but it's just not easy or useful enough to justify the extra expense...

  • Based on our time with the Samsung Gear S2, we think it's a sleek smartwatch with an attractive design. It offers fairly standard smartwatch features like fitness tracking, but also includes some rather interesting features including a rotating bezel used...

  • Slick bezel controls, lovely display, light but well built, mostly fast performance
  • Tizen needs better third-party app support, not quite 4GB storage
  • The smartwatch market is getting very competitive, and Samsung has added yet another quality timepiece to a growing list of viable options. Tizen currently lacks killer apps, but it does feel like a more complete package than the ultra-simple Android Wear...

  • It's great to see Samsung injecting a bit of variety into the smartwatch market, and it's also good to see that it recognises it needs to be a bit more open if its Tizen wearables OS is to gain a foothold.The Gear S2's rotating bezel is genuinely brillian...

  • Beautiful round design, Elegant, fluid user interface, Rotating bezel is a true innovation, 2-3 day battery life
  • Barely any usable apps, Reactivation Lock is buggy, Fitness functions are very limited
  • I love most everything about the Gear S2, but I absolutely cannot recommend it — not at all. I had severe connectivity issues, and it appears that I'm not the only person. Aside from losing connection or slow connection, if the watch ever dies completel...

  • Excellent screen, Innovative rotating bezel, Slick Tizen UI
  • Limited number of apps, Lacking customisation options, Poor voice control
  • The Samsung Gear S2 is without doubt one of the best smartwatches I've ever used. The innovations that Samsung introduced with the device are meaningful, and change the way I interact with smartwatches. It's a well-made device, the rotating bezel i...

  • Well implemented bezel control, good build quality, always-on screen option
  • Expensive, poor third-party app support, Huawei Watch aces design
  • The Samsung Gear S2 makes a pretty good first impression. It looks much less embarrassing than the Gear S and the rotary dial on the front feels good and is properly integrated into the software. With at least two days of light use, it's also on-pa...

  • Rotating bezel FTW, Simple, speedy to use OS, Good battery life,
  • Tizen apps are limited, Software extras aren't perfect, Not as customisable as rivals
  • As easy to get on with as a Pebble, as stylish as an Apple Watch and with that tactile, rotating bezel as its secret weapon, the Gear S2 is the kind of smartwatch you'd kick yourself for leaving at home. It's not perfect - this isn't that dream hybrid of...
