    After having my smartwatch for just over a month I have enjoyed wearing it. It's contour is very comfortable to wear everyday. My only thoughts of a downside is that you have to plug a external battery pack onto the back of the watch then plug a cord into that. When done charging you have to unclip it. I can see this breaking over time since you have to charge the watch every 2 days.

    Samsung out did themselves this time, this thing is entertainment, style and High Tech on a grand scale. U can change bands to match outfits, it has a Internet browser so u look up things from the watch, I'm going to cry it's prefect to say the least. I do miss the watch camera but this is better than the first generation gears which did nothing much. Would I recommend to a friend, Gear yeah!

    Watch has numerous functions and is almost like a laptop you wear on your wrist. Only complaints are that it's difficult to read in broad daylight and that the battery barely lasts 1 day. Also wish wristband was a little larger - can't find larger bands sold by outside vendors.

    This watch offers many very functional apps, many of them free. I love it, being something of a watch geek. A great improvement is that you can access both Bluetooth and your website for connectivity. The loss of the camera function from the previous version is too bad, I didn't use it often, but it was fun and had amazing resolution for its size. The watch face is larger than in the previous version, something that people with smaller wrists may want to consider. Personally, I don't mind. Overall, it's a wonderful watch and it has helped me be less dependent on my phone.

    I love the watch if it had a built in camera it would be even more better and a longer battery span. other then that the screen is perfect for reading it has a minor glitch and it could be just mine. but every new update the software crashes and I have to do a hard reset then upgrade and need to reinstall all my apps and setting from scratch. other then that this phone is awesome.

    My daughter picked this watch for the larger screen and for the Bluetooth capability. She has been really pleased with her Samsun GearS Smartwatch.

    Great Smart Watch for Android Users

    I love this watch. This smart watch allows you to view/reply to email, text messages, and answer calls via your watch. Email, Text, and calls are forwarded to the watch via blue tooth if your phone is within range. If your phone is not in range, the watch has its own sim card therefore its own number and you can still receive text, calls, and emails even if your phone is not in range. (a feature that Apple does not have). The watch also serves as a pedometer, music player (which can have it's own music downloaded to the watch or you can blue tooth it from the phone). Your appointments will also appear on the watch along with any alarms.

    Love the flexibility. Can be on the go and not have to take my phone. Always reachable. Con: Difficult to see screen in bright sunlight. Battery only lasts 8-10 hours with regular use. No camera function.

    I found this watch to be better than I thought. I was able to download apps for fitness - get my emails - text messages -and make phone calls. And the reception was clear enough for me to hear the other party. I liked the big face and HD quaility of the screen as well. I would surely recommend this watch to a friend.

    I enjoy using this watch. It really does not have any other use to me other than making it easier to look at my text and emails at a glance. I think they need to come up with some more creative functions for it. I do like being able to change the watch front for different occasions

    Very stylish and a great smartwatch if you are aware of what you are purchasing. Limited apps from tizen os but as a companion to your galaxy phone it's perfect for samsung-centric OS. And as an added bonus you can use it as a standalone phone if you choose.

    Having a Note 4 is great for the screen size and awful at the same time when it comes to the ease of getting it in and out of pockets when it rings. The Smartwatch is the perfect solution in determining whether making the effort is necessary.

    The Samsung- Gear Smartwatch is the coolest thing I have ever owned! I get great comments on it all the time. It looks great and I can wear it for almost all occasions. I'm an educator and can monitor important emails during meetings and class without pulling out my phone, with just a glance at my wrist.

    I switched from a Sony Smartwatch 2 to this. It was totally worth it!!!! I can answer phone calls with a swipe, and answer text messages with the full keyboard it has. Amazing display that is really clear! Only thing that my previous watch had that was better than this one is the battery life.
