ya the price is not justified. Typing is thru the old dial keypad....sian type a C need to press 3 times and it so small...keep typing wrongly.
Don't think can pick up call and answer directly.
plus point is can connect phone thru wifi n BT if I am correct.

Note the map is not Google map and cannot zoom in.
Basic should be ceramic and classic is steel.

size and thickness is like normal watch which I think they are in the right track which I think I will buy but not now as the price is too expensive.

M out of Singapore hence cudnt go there, what changed ur mind???
I have used:
Moto 360
Asus Zenwatch
LG G Watch Urbane

And still I was looking forward to Tizen based Gear S2, my only concern is keyboard support for Whatsapp, Facebook messenger, etc.

Not sure if there are others who also feels the same as me. If you pre order S2, you got another $200 voucher but it can only be use to offset Note 5 or S6. My problem is, what if I already have got the phone...? Then what else can I do with the $200 voucher..? Doesn't sounds very right..

Sure makes me feels like samsung is pushing sales for Note 5 and S6.. Abit too hard sell bah. Else I would have use the voucher to get the wireless charging plate or maybe the Bluetooth speaker or samsung Live.. But now tied to either Note 5 or S6.. :(

I have no doubt about tizen os but the price is really too high and I just feel it will drop drastically..

Gear s had sim card and it's only 300 plus..the feel of the watch does not justify the price

quite a deal breaker for me.. cannot answer calls on the watch... :(
That's weird though, I actually managed to play the stored music through its speakers at the event. So if there is a speaker, I'm sure there's a way to makes calls too no?

u can use the watch and select contacts to call. but cannot use it to talk to the one u are calling.



Select the 5th video from the playlist.

That sucks!! Haha darn it. Well with a speaker and a microphone built in already, let's hope they'll have the right mind to allow it through a software update.
