  • Abstract:  The Gear Live is the best smartwatch I've ever used--but that's not a remarkable achievement considering all the crappy-to-middling efforts we've seen from Samsung, Sony and Qualcomm. If I were being generous, I'd say Samsung finally landed on a simple, w...

  • The Gear Live-or more specifically, Android Wear-is already capable of doing more (and looking good doing it) than any other smartwatch out there. The software has tremendous potential, and it's actually useful, rather than just a novelty. Being able to q
  • It feels like a beta. Some of the flaws we've already mentioned just seem so obvious that it makes you feel like the product was rushed out the door, which it probably was. Android Wear needs more consistency and speed in voice recognition, and an Undo po
  • Every smartwatch Ive tested Ive removed from my wrist the instant I finished writing it up, and Ive never looked back. The Gear Live will be the first time that I continue wearing it, and pretty enthusiastically. Its very exciting, and $200 is really...

  • There's a reason why fitness trackers like the Jawbone Up and Fitbit Flex are so popular: they do just a few things and do them well. Android Wear, on the other hand, tries to be everything at once — a digital assistant, a notification manager, and a fitn...

  • Abstract:  Menuda efervescencia que tenemos en el terreno de los smartwatch o relojes inteligentes : como diría el dueño de un quiosco de helados con cuarenta grados a la sombra, todo el mundo quiere uno. Y claro, andan los fabricantes ultimando las que serán sus pr...

  • El Samsung Gear Live o, para ser más concretos, Android Wear es capaz de más funciones y de lucir mejor que cualquier otro smartwatch hasta la fecha. El software tiene un potencial tremendo y es útil. Poder chequear el correo u otros mensajes desde la muñ
  • Da la sensación de ser una beta. Algunos de los fallos son tan evidentes que parece que el producto se ha sacado a toda prisa, y probablemente sea así. Los ingenieros de Google necesitan echarle más horas a Android Wear. El botón de deshacer es fundamenta
  • Cada smartwatch que he probado hasta ahora ha acabado en un cajón al poco de terminar su análisis. El Gear Live es la excepción y, pese a sus fallos, ha logrado entusiasmarme. Su precio (200 dólares) es elevado, pero razonable.Pese a ello, nuestro consejo...

  • Apparence plutôt haut de gamme, Ecran plus net que la G Watch, Waterproof, Compatible avec tout Androids (4.3 et plus), Choix d'applis grandissant
  • Echec du socle de recharge, Pas aussi confortable que la LG, Autonomie d'un jour
  • Avec seulement deux concurrents sur le marché Android Wear, il est facile de se distinguer. Samsung est à peine devant LG, grâce à son écran plus net et son moniteur de rythme cardiaque. Proches en termes de prix et de caractéristiques, le choix se fera s...
