The editors didn't like
Some features still Samsung
Only
Expensive
Poor third-party app support
Huawei Watch aces design
Tizen needs better third-party app support
Not quite 4GB storage
Very expensive
Very poor apps selection
Battery life just OK with always-on screen
Slow voice commands
No iPhone support
It's more expensive
Requires a connected data plan to pair with
And runs out of battery life quickly on cellular. It's bulkier
Too. Also
The Gear S2 3G doesn't have that many great apps
And it doesn't yet work with iPhones
Fewer available apps or seamless connected services than Android Wear and Apple Watch

Attractive design, Great display, Great interface
Proprietary strap mounts (on standard model), Limited third-party apps, Voice controls are slow and limited

The Samsung Gear S2 smartwatch has great software and a thoughtful design going for it, but a paltry app selection and finicky voice recognition hold it back...
Beautiful, simple design, Comfortable, Excellent display and interface, Responsive, Full-featured, The bezel
Wish the back had more metal
The good-looking Samsung Gear S2 is the answer to the question, 'Which smartwatch should I get to pair with my Android phone?'...

Attractive design, Feature rich
Confusing UI, Proprietary charger
Samsung's has clearly laboured over the creation of the Gear S2 and from where we stand this smartwatch isn't just a one-trick pony or an experiment. Samsung is looking to expand its already strong presence in the wearables market and what's more do it wi...

Beautiful display, High-quality construction, Comfortable and minimal design, Bezel navigation is intuitive, Extended battery life
Poor app quality and selection, Voice commands pale to Siri and Google Now, Unclear how long Samsung will support it, Purchase the Gear S2 from the SyrupShop here

Smart round design, Innovative rotating bezel, Tizen OS is polished, Works with many Android phones
Slow voice control, Too few high quality apps, Lacks customisation options
This is by far Samsung's best smartwatch yet, from its smarter, round design to the clever rotating bezel. However, the Gear S2 still looks and feels more like a tech lover's device, and lacks a developer community...
