To be a Deaf person, this product is AWESOME
Posted .For me, the good outweighs the bad and makes the cons so minor and petty. I have had issues with finding a cell phone with a strong vibration. My hearing husband, who travels for work, uses text as his primary form of communication with me. Often and too many times, I would miss his messages because of not being able to feel the phone vibrating. With the galaxy gear on my wrist, I never miss his messages. Maybe this isn't something others need but I find that this watch is a great little techy device. Samsung started somewhere and in my opinion, this is a good start. It has been consistently responding as expected. I've read other reviews from different sites about needing to shake their wrist just to turn the device on from sleep mode. I have not had that issue. When I lift my wrist as if to look at the time, the device turns on from sleep mode consistently. I personally love this device. The wrist vibration is just one of the many things I like about it. I'm able to respond to text messages by talking into the watch on s voice (Yes I am Deaf and Can talk). I'm able to send messages without ever picking up the phone. Very useful when driving. (Reminder, anything that distracts you from driving is NOT SAFE so use with caution). Also, I am totally baffled at the picture quality. I could not have asked for a better camera on this device. I have posted pictures taken using the Galaxy Gear. Maybe we can play a game and see who can guess which pictures were taken on my Galaxy Note 3 and which ones were taken on the Galaxy Gear. I will look for your responses. I've only had it for one day so I will see if I can come back later down the road to add information on durability. I highly recommend this device for what it does. A lot of other reviews focus on what it does not do. Keep in mind, the battery did run out before the end of the day probably because I actually used it a lot. If you are one of those type people that expect forever life in batteries needing only to charge it once a blue moon, maybe this device is not for you because it will annoy you. Despite the battery running out by the end of the day, this thing amazingly charged fairly quick within a few hours. So I'm sold right now. Again, a durability review will come later down the road.

Note + Gear, The Perfect Combination!
Posted .I added the GALAXY Gear with great hesitation about it's overall usefulness. I was dead wrong! The GALAXY Gear took calls and responded to text messages with ease. The battery lasted 2 working days (After I turned off the wake-up setting#. I also use the voice-activated timer, pedometer and music control while working out or jogging. I had my doubts about the camera on the GALAXY Gear but then I realized that although the quality may be only as good as the front-facing camera on my GALAXY Note 3, it was perfect for bar code scanning and taking photos of business cards and coupons #now if only someone would write an applet for my favorite phone apps.)

Doesn't do much, but still a nifty little device
|Posted .I've had my eye on the Samsung Galaxy Gear Smart Watch for some time. Quite literally--this is a very eye-catching watch and I was always drawn to the display of these watches at Best Buy every time I entered the store. But the full price seemed too steep to me for what the watch could accomplish, so I always moved on after admiring the watches. That is until Best Buy offered a one-day 50% off list price sale, and I immediately accepted that offer. And after using the watch for a little over a month, I feel it was well worth the money. I would highly recommend the watch to anyone who can find it at a discounted price, but would probably recommend against buying it at full price. It does some neat things, but not enough to justify the full list price. As I said, the appearance of the watch is striking and attractive. I figured as long as I was getting a somewhat frivolous toy, I might as well get it in a bold color, so I got the Wild Orange version. In the short span of a month, I have never received so many positive comments from people on any accessory or article of clothing I've ever worn. People would come right up to me and say, "Wow, is that one of those smart watches?" and then I would tell them about it. The main reason I got the watch was to avoid the hassle of pulling my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone out of my pants pocket every time I felt the buzz indicating an incoming email or text message. Especially when I am driving in the car and not able to get into my front pants pocket without undoing my seatbelt. This function of the watch alone is worth the (discounted) price. Both the phone and watch vibrate to indicate a new message, and if I am quick I can touch my watch to see the sender and at least the beginning of the message (depending on how long it is). If I don't look at the notification right away, I can easily swipe from the main clock screen one screen to the right to the notification screen, and then tapping on either the name of my email or text messaging app to get my messages. At least some of them. The system accumulates message alerts in an odd way that I do not quite understand yet. For example, right now, accessing my email alerts shows the following list: AAA Southern Pennsylvania 10:17 AM 2 new messages 9:32 AM 32 new messages 9:01 AM 33 new messages 9:01 AM 32 new messages 8:46 AM 31 new messages 8:46 AM 30 new messages 8:46 AM 29 new messages 8:31 AM and so forth. Clearly, some of these alerts are redundant, and it is somewhat annoying to see three different alerts for 8:46 indicating 30, 31, and 32 new messages. Couldn't the first two be automatically deleted from the display since the one indicating 32 new messages covers them? Also, unlike notifications of a single email, where I can actually see part of the email, notification lists only show the sender and subject line. What I have to do regularly to avoid this clutter is to manually delete these alerts. You would think that deleting emails from my IMAP inbox (from my computer or phone) would remove these old notifications, but it does not. I am one of those people who does not use my cell phone as a phone very often, but I've found the watch to be extremely useful when I do get an incoming call. Not only does it immediately show who is calling, but I actually have the option of accepting the call with my watch and conversing with the caller through the watch itself. Shades of Dick Tracy! This is a super-convenient feature, and people who've called me say that the audio quality is fine. If I actually phoned people, I could also use the watch to make outgoing calls, even employing voice activation. But like I said, I rarely use my phone as a phone so I have not tested this feature. The watch will also display missed calls as well as emails and text messages, which is a handy feature. Unfortunately, for some reason it is really difficult to get rid of missed call notifications. I think I had to reset the watch to do that, and Internet discussions have indicated that this is a flaw in the watch. Another very useful feature of the watch is that it notifies me of appointments that I have scheduled. I can dismiss or snooze these notifications. One highly touted feature of the watch that I'm not crazy about is its ability to play music from your phone. If it played the music on my watch, that would indeed be groovy. But, what it does is rather strange: It remote-controls the media player on my phone. So if I use this function, music starts to come out of my pants pocket. Weird. Also, the interface makes it very difficult to navigate and select songs. Might as well pull the phone out of my pocket when I want to play music. Another feature I found very useful on one occasion is the ability to find my misplaced phone with the watch. As long as you are in bluetooth connection distance, you can have the watch make your phone ring until you are able to find it. That worked superbly for me the one time I forgot where in the house I had placed my phone. The phone has other functions that seem pretty cool but that I have not used much or at all. The watch can take pictures or videos that are transferred to the phone. Have only tested it rather than used it a lot, but this function does work well. It's another feature that can make you feel like a detective or secret agent. I also installed a connection to MapMyRun, but haven't tried this one yet. And let's not forget the old-school function of a watch: To quickly see what time it is. I've not worn a watch for maybe 15 years because I've been able to get the time from my cell phone. I forgot how nice and convenient it is to be able to glance at my watch for the time (especially in meetings where it looks rude to pull out your phone to see what time it is). The face of the watch stays dark until you activate it by motion or pressing the button on the side. A bonus is that you also see the current temperature and weather conditions--a step up from an ordinary watch. In summary, this watch does not do a ton of things, and I would not consider it a must-have device. But it does do some pretty neat things and I would consider it well worth the price if you can find it on sale.

lot to like but still on the fence...
Posted .It may seem strange that I gave a 4 star review for something I am on the fence about. I'll try to explain... First of all I was attracted to the James Bond techiness of the device but I don't think it fully delivers on every detail. Some of these are not issues of the device itself. For example spoken text is fine if you don't mind looking like a Mongoloid when you write. This is not an issue of the device in so much that it is a Google voice issue. Your texts will not have punctuation or choose the correct homonyms at times. Similarly with phone calls, I don't think it is loud enough in some situations. If you want to use it as a phone then this is important. Depending on who you are talking to and what they are speaking on you may not be able to hear them well and as far as I can tell there is no quick immediate way to turn up the volume. As a result I am not using it as a speakerphone. My wife has told me that I sound tinny but at the same time compared to most speakerphones it is not really a drop in quality but a difference in sound. The device is amazing flin some respects however. Notifications on your wrist are incredible and noticeable while being discreet. Also having your calender show up next to the time make it a killer watch. Finally the ability of it to find your phone (and visa versa) and lock your phone when it is out of reach are fantastic and well thought out. The camera is entirely adequate for the fact that it is on your wrist as well. The saving grace on the phone issue is that if you answer a call on your note it does not blast the caller's voice off of your wrist like old navigation systems used to do when you forgot your bluetooth was synced and you were walking away from the car. Finally it is a great watch with some bonusses: notifications (I don't miss calls and texts), calender presence and a camera (that's just cool.) The pedometer feature doesn't mean much to me but I image it will be useful for some and the thing looks better on your wrist than it does in pictures. $300 is where I am on the fence and considering returning it. It's not a cheap watch. And it is just a watch with features. It is not a phone on your wrist. Take this all into consideration and you won't be dissapointed. Samsung is a helluva innovator and this should not be discluded. It is very well designed technically and looks great too. Depending on what you want it for it could be the perfect companion to your note 3 in how easy it is to set up and relaying your most important information to you.

Excellent small business purchase! Love it!
|Posted .I was at T-Mobile exchanging my five-week-old defective Samsung Galaxy Note II and the salesman was wearing this Galaxy Gear watch. I asked him to explain it to me and I was blown away! The features ROCK! I can snap photos of my pro demos from it, answer calls, see notices immediately as to when I received texts or fb or email messages. I can check the weather and it has a pedometer and many other useful features. I love changing the face of the watch to my family photos with different fonts and photos! I really wanted one but they are $300 at T-Mobile. The salesman said, "Well don't tell anyone I told you, but... across the street at Best Buy they are only $229!" Honey, I RAN not walked!! I bought the mocha one, more like a gun metal. It's gorgeous. I receive tons of compliments on my new high-techy device! It's just a Bluetooth on my wrist, but I love being able to talk hands free while driving and I am partially hearing impaired and yet I can hear perfectly on my Galaxy Gear wrist watch! Wow!! I highly, highly recommend this wonderful product! I never fear dropping my expensive cell now (as I once did at work, shattering the screen) because I can tuck it away under my cart at work and as long as I am 100 feet away from my cell, all is well! It charges quickly every night and I just cannot live without it already! Thanks, Best Buy and Samsung! WINNING!! ~Joyful Judi ;-D

Q: Questioncan it be used alone without a phone
Asked by oscar.
- A:Answer The Gear relies on a bluetooth connection to your phone for message/call notifications. If the Gear moves out of range from your device, you will lose any ability to recieve notifications until you are back in range. It will still function as a watch, camera, and several apps that don't require notification delivery.
