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

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

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...
