The editors liked

  • Cool design
  • Swappable bands
  • Longer battery
  • Waterproof and feels and wellmade Battery will last a full weekend Screen is bright and sharp
  • The original Galaxy Gear smartwatch was by no means a looker
  • As it was rather bulky and unsightly - thankfully
  • Samsung has streamlined its successor
  • And it's a much slicker item of wrist wear that actually looks like a proper watch. Gone from the strap is the watch's camera - instead
  • It's been integrated into the top of the watch's upper edge
  • Meaning you can swap in different watch straps -
  • The Samsung Gear 2 smartwatch delivers an improved design

The editors didn't like

  • Still chunky
  • Likely expensive
  • Software can be fiddly to navigate Camera is low quality and feels unnecessary Accelerometer needs work Far too expensive
  • Unfortunately
  • While Samsung has steadily improved the overall smartwatch package
  • It still falls short on both being a watch
  • And frankly
  • Being smart. While its battery life has been improved
  • It still only lasts around three days
  • Meaning you'll have to charge it up at least twice a week - not ideal when you want to rely on your timepiece for
  • Well
  • The time. The switch to Tizen has meant that
  • Limited number of apps
  • Poor S-Health fitness app syncing
  • Can only be paired to Samsung phones
  • Camera is an unnecessary extra for the $100 it costs over the Gear 2 Neo
  • Disapointting snapper
  • Fiddly software
  • Pricey
  • Unreliable accelerometer
  • Locked to Samsung devices
  • Battery life isn't great
  • Gear 2 Neo undercuts price
  • Might be obsolete due to Android Wear devices
  • Sports features aren't executed as well as sports watches
  • Poor sleep tracking
  • Questionable camera skills
  • Hefty price tag
  • Only Samsung compatible
  • Expensive
  • Unnecessary features with poor applications
  • Pointless camera
  • So-so battery life
  • Bulky watch face
  • Lack of thirdparty apps
  • Minor software glitches
  • Limited to working with only Samsung Galaxy devices
  • Not many apps available yet
  • Needs a dock to charge
  • Accelerator doesn't always activate screen when you move

  • Abstract:  Mit der Samsung Gear 2 haben die Koreaner nicht mal ein halbes Jahr nach Erscheinen des ersten Modells eine Neuauflage ihrer Smartwatch prasentiert. Neben dem Anzeigen von eingegangenen Nachrichten soll die Gear 2 auch fur Sportler interessant sein und bi...

  • tolles Display, Akkulaufzeit mit 2 bis 4 Tage in Ordnung, viele, viele Funktionen, wertige Verarbeitung
  • einige Funktionen nicht ausgereift (FitnessFeatures), Funktioniert nur mit ausgewählten AndroidPhones, teuer, Ladeadapter
  • Die Samsung Gear 2 ist wirklich nett. Wer ein Galaxy Gerät besitzt, Armbanduhren mag und etwa 300 Euro übrig hat, kann sich das Teil auf jeden Fall mal anschauen. Einige Funktionen – allen voran die Nutzung als zweiten Handy-Bildschirm – sind wirklich to...

  • Verbesserte Bauform, Pulsmesser, Infrarotsender, Telefonfunktion, Akkulaufzeit
  • Nur mit Samsung-Smartphones kompatibel, Gear Fitness-App, Tizen sorgt für kleine App-Auswahl
  • Die perfekte Smartwatch ist die Gear 2 nicht, ein Schritt in die richtige Richtung aber schon. Auf viele Kritikpunkte von der ersten Gear ist Samsung eingegangen, so überzeugen am neuen Modell besonders die verbesserte Bauform und die IP67-Zertifizierung...

  • Die Galaxy Gear Fit erhält derzeit mehr Aufmerksamkeit als die Gear 2. Das ist unter anderem in ihrem äußerst innovativen Design mit dem gebogenen Display geschuldet. Was die Funktionalität angeht, ist die Gear 2 der Gear Fit deutlich überlegen, passt le...

  • Die jüngsten Verkaufszahlen der Gear Fit zeigen sehr deutlich, dass durchaus Interesse an solchen Smartwaches und Fitness-Bändern besteht. Allerdings ist eine solche Smartwatch in meinen Augen kein richtiger Fitness-Tracker (Akku, Größe, trackt nicht 24/7...

  • Abstract:  Es ist eine große Überraschung: Samsung verzichtet bei seinen neuen Smartwatches auf Googles Android-System, stattdessen kommt das zusammen mit Intel und weiteren Partnern entwickelte Tizen-System zum Einsatz. Nutzer dürften den Unterschied jedoch kaum be...

  • Samsung Gear 2 è un Galaxy S5 in miniatura con Tizen e convertito in smartwatch. Pur non avendo caratteristiche tecniche all'avanguardia, è dotato di una serie di sensori che di volta in volta risultano sempre più comodi, come ad esempio il sensore ad i...

  • Elegante e ben costruito, Presente infrarossi e fotocamera, Batteria dura oltre 3 giorni, Semplice da utilizzare
  • Compatibile con pochi dispositivi (Samsung), Prezzo alto, Fotocamera appena sufficiente, Poche app aggiuntive a installare
  • Samsung Gear 2 è probabilmente il miglior smartwatch al momento in commercio. Funzionale, con una buona autonomia, resistenza all'acqua, ricco di funzionalità e semplice da utilizzare. Il prezzo di lancio però è importante. Se potete permetterve...

  Published: 2014-05-31, Author: Marco , review by: webnews.it

  • Sistema operativo Tizen molto reattivo, autonomia migliorata rispetto al primo Galaxy Gear, certificazione IP67, compatibilità limitata ai principali smartphone Samsung
  • Poche applicazioni disponibili, basso volume audio
  • Il Samsung Gear 2 si è rivelato una valida estensione allo smartphone, con buone prestazioni e una buona autonomia (con la batteria da 300 mAh integrata ha raggiunto tranquillamente i tre giorni), e indubbiamente un passo in avanti rispetto al precedente...
