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 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...

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...

Sistema operativo Tizen molto reattivo, autonomia migliorata rispetto al primo Galaxy Gear, certificazione IP67, compatibilità limitata ai principali smartphone Samsung
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...
