The editors liked

  • Nutzo battery life. The Gear S's 300 mAh battery isn't even big by smartwatch standards and still I was able to get a whole two days out of it in one stretch
  • And on the night in-between I was even using it for sleep tracking. This should be the baseline
  • Receives calls
  • Text messages and notifications without a phone nearby
  • Battery life is better than most full-color smartwatches
  • The Samsung Gear S has a big
  • Bright curved display
  • Decent battery life
  • Comes with its own bonus battery pack and can stay connected away from a phone with its own 3G data or Wi-Fi. It's attractive
  • Albeit rather large. It's a complete on-wrist phone
  • Good looking
  • Comfortable curve
  • Does more than Android Wear watches
  • FUN
  • Stylish
  • Good features
  • Quality
  • Image quality

The editors didn't like

  • Ugh
  • It's so big and ugly and unhip. It's vitally important to be able to wear a smartwatch without being uncomfortable
  • Physically or mentally. Wearing the Gear S made me uncomfortable in both ways. When I wore it for sleep tracking
  • It kept feeling like
  • Large
  • Clunky design with annoying clasp and snap-on charger
  • Expensive up-front price with an additional monthly cost for wireless service
  • Contacts won't recognize your number for outgoing calls
  • Interface is confusing
  • Inconsistent and lacking in actio
  • It still requires a recent Samsung phone to pair with and install apps
  • And its standalone features don't work with all apps and notifications. The Gear app library is still weak compared with Android Wear
  • Battery life
  • Requires a Samsung Android phone
  • Expensive
  • You know that there will be a far better model in a couple of years
  • Too expensive
  • Limited compatibility and app selection
  • Still needs a phone for activation and loading apps
  • Limited app selection
  • Bulky design with proprietary wrist straps

  • Abstract:  The Gear S is by far the largest smartwatch I've ever worn, and it looks ridiculous. Granted, I'm a scrawny dude, but I've never been this anxious about sporting a smartwatch in public--not even when wearing the bulbous Moto 360, which at least paired wel...

  • No. Theres a lot you could potentially do with a watch that has its own data connection, but the Gear S doesnt do those things. And the Gear S is big and ugly in order to shove in that limited functionality. The trade-off just isnt worth it. Connectivi...
