Could you answer this: Is there a way to prevent the display from turning on if you rotate the bezel? I have the auto display turned off, so it doesn't turn on when you move your wrist, but when I'm sleeping, I bump the bezel and it turns on. Annoying when it lights up the room
+SourceCy I was soo excited about this new watch until I recently found out it had no speaker. 3G model will have the speaker. Can't believe samsung did that, kind of pisses me off. Going to stick with my gear2. Seriously can't believe this.
mauricesj66 Which is more expensive and I don't need 3G on my smartwatch I just want it to have a speaker without affecting the price; a novelty that previous Gears had.
I think there is gps but on the LTE model only. Not having gps is a bit of a deal breaker for me, I wish they would put it in all there wearables. Does anyone have an idea what you'd pay for a 3G contract on a wearable?
+Greg Brown probably between a tablet and a phone. I'm guessing $20-25 range but depends on how they milk data and how much the sw uses in general. (gear s had plans around $15 although greatly reduced on some carriers if you got a Samsung phone as well, so opportunities to save are available)
I'm planning to get one for my 21st birthday in November, should I get classic or sport edition? also should I get it on my bday or wait for black friday?
is there a way to change the time settings from 12hr clock to the 24hr clock? I'm military so it comes more handy for me but I haven't been able to figure it out.
I want to know everything about e.sim ! Is it used in all parts of the world currently. or not !? please answer because I want the 3g version but I'm scare if I buy it and couldn't work on it because of this e.sim !?!!
I thought you just mentioned it is running tizen. So still consider a android wear smartwatch? I wondered why Samsung using Tizen instead? Who is supporting Tizen, I mean app developers and organization continuously developing the platform. Or samsung doing it alone?
sadfully is Tizen... obviously the main platform or the predilect for the developers will be android wear, i like the round bezel but i dont see G Now and its has less apps in his market(only for the moment I hope)
Amazing design, cool watch overall. Total lack of apps and support and a battery life thats non existing. I just had to return it. Its amazingly nice designed watch but its lacking so much.
Samsung's done it again. The best smartewatch ever. And no problem with tizen coz android wear is not really needed, as smart watch have limited features and apps.
I don't want a SIM and I want to tether it to my phone, while wearing bluetooth headphones. - Can I use the GPS of my phone with the watch's map apps? - Can I send text messages through it using my phone's network? - Can I completely use the phone's network and completely substitute it for the watch's network? - Does this work with Samsunf S5 running Android 5.0 (Lollipop)? - Can I play music and control it, through the watch, off my phone? - Does it have apps like Spotify and Facebook Messenger? - Does it display photos and video? - How much is it and what are all the versions? What features do you lose? - Does it have the Google+ app? Google maps? Navigation? Alarm clock? - When is this available in Europe (more specifically the UK)?
They have been taking a lot of heat from consumers with claims of copying one device or another so I don't think they're ready to offer a gold color option for this device.
+BehelitOutlaw It works with some, but all Android phones and not smoothly. Sounds sorta like how some Android wear devices work with the Apple Watch. Anyway I'll leave it there instead of calling names hiding behind a keyboard.
hypermetalsonic it is the name that Motorola has given to their circular display design of their Moto 360, which isn't fully circular, and features a black bar at the bottom of the display which houses the sensors, and makes it look weird and hideous.
It's 2019 and now I'm thinking about buying it
Yooo same
Worth it. I have the galaxy 3 frontier.
Same
When i rotate the bezel i feel like Ben 10
Yeah. It's hero time!!
Got mine today ! .. The interface is so well thought out .. Tizen seems to be very polished .. Well done Sammy !
Samsung has started to take wearables really much more serious now
Brilliant! This is how a smartwatch shud be. This is the smartwatch to buy!
+Top 5 except the fact that there isn't a speaker on this anymore.
Tony K. Dude its a watch. A speaker on a watch, seriously? Have u imagined urself listening to something from a watch?!
+Top 5 i have and i do. lots of poeople do. if your argument is that this is just a "watch" then you shouldn't even buy this at all.
Tony K. Lol.. right.
except it doesnt have android wear
i has shiTizen Os
I like the moto 360, but this i think is better because of the display not being a flat tire, and amoled, obviously.
this gotta be the best smart watch approach ever its beautiful intuitive ans simply works far better and simpler than competition. .
Slick as always. ;)
Thanks for uploading.
Honestly this is the best looking smartwatch out right now, I currently own Moto 360 1st Gen so no fanboy here!
Does it has a heart rate sensor?
Often feels like he is the only guy behind android authority...
I am still not sold on the idea of wearable but i won't mind gear s2 classic.

Just awsm...I love it...Interested ❤😍👌👌👌
Not only smartwatch, Samsung has a tizen powered phone too. Called Samsung Z1 in India.
Who cares???
+Azhar Didi everyone
We do not care
How's the brightness? I'm outdoors a lot and I don't know how well I'll be able to see it.
Would you recommend this or the Hauwei?
Cam Nguyen this one
what is the name of ur phone it so good and large tell me plz
Hey, can you open pictures on this watch?
Holding out for the S2 Classic.
If it only had a speaker then it would be the smartwatch of my dreams... but I guess I'm still happy with my Gear 2.
I thought it had o.O
+SourceCy I was soo excited about this new watch until I recently found out it had no speaker. 3G model will have the speaker. Can't believe samsung did that, kind of pisses me off. Going to stick with my gear2. Seriously can't believe this.
the 3g version will have a built-in speaker and the ability to talk on it
+mauricesj66 yea i know
mauricesj66 Which is more expensive and I don't need 3G on my smartwatch I just want it to have a speaker without affecting the price; a novelty that previous Gears had.
Pretty interested in this one. That dial is very cool and I'm a sucker for Amoled. What's battery life like?
they say it will last two days
+yourlordchip its for heavy use right ? because my friend had a gear2 he said it leasts for a week easily
+Ali Furkan yeah my gear s last at least 4 days
yourlordchip good i might think buying this but i will wait
+Ali Furkan I'm waiting for the 3g model to come out
Look better than android wear for sure... Is there a version with GPS inside?
I think there is gps but on the LTE model only. Not having gps is a bit of a deal breaker for me, I wish they would put it in all there wearables. Does anyone have an idea what you'd pay for a 3G contract on a wearable?
+Greg Brown probably between a tablet and a phone. I'm guessing $20-25 range but depends on how they milk data and how much the sw uses in general. (gear s had plans around $15 although greatly reduced on some carriers if you got a Samsung phone as well, so opportunities to save are available)
+DarkVelvet55 Cool cheers for that man. I'll wait then n see what the deals are like in the UK
+Michaël Bonnet what do you guys use gps for?
+jesse alvarez I want it to track my runs with strava and to not have take my phone with me

bro the app u told to use the S2 gear , can it be applicable for other company smartwatches too ?
I wonder if I can use it for my galaxy s4
im pretty sure you can, you need a minimum of android 4.4
the rotating bezel is a good idea 💡
so i need your advice ... buy gear s or gear s2
also is that accept sim card like gear s
I'm planning to get one for my 21st birthday in November, should I get classic or sport edition? also should I get it on my bday or wait for black friday?
can you connect bluetooth headphones and the watch to the phone at the same time?
do you have to buy this with a plan?
+Ben Alonso No
is there a way to change the time settings from 12hr clock to the 24hr clock? I'm military so it comes more handy for me but I haven't been able to figure it out.
Does it have ambient mode?
tizen is also on their TV show and other lesser known phones
Now please someone make the Ben10 omnitrix app for this ...
Is this a standalone Smartwatch with SIM card/ eSim or does it need a phone to work?
is it bad that most if the time I ignore smartwatch videos?
does it work with other android devices?
I wonder if samsung pay will work if the watch is sync to a non samsung phone ex: nexus 6p
Yes Samsung Pay will work on the Samsung Gear S2.
+Danny F which phone do u have I have the note 4 and there is no sign of samsung pay
Tarek Halaby If you have s6 and newer Phones or the Gear S2. You can use Samsung Pay.
+Mattia Pascal Procopio I have the gear sw2 and still not able to find samsung pay
Tarek Halaby I say the NEW Gear S2 and not the Gear 2. There are 2 different Smartwatches.
Can you turn off notifications
Yes, just active "Do not disturb" mode and that´s it.
is the NFC functionality restricted to Samsung pay or is compatible with my Samsung tec tiles?
I got one and battery life is awesome 18hr and still got 55% left and been playing with ut

What is the size difference against the new Moto watch???

Amazing design, cool watch overall. Total lack of apps and support and a battery life thats non existing. I just had to return it. Its amazingly nice designed watch but its lacking so much.
is it true that watch does not have a speaker?
Samsung's done it again. The best smartewatch ever.
And no problem with tizen coz android wear is not really needed, as smart watch have limited features and apps.
Hope the dial thing catches on with other watches.

I don't want a SIM and I want to tether it to my phone, while wearing bluetooth headphones.
- Can I use the GPS of my phone with the watch's map apps?
- Can I send text messages through it using my phone's network?
- Can I completely use the phone's network and completely substitute it for the watch's network?
- Does this work with Samsunf S5 running Android 5.0 (Lollipop)?
- Can I play music and control it, through the watch, off my phone?
- Does it have apps like Spotify and Facebook Messenger?
- Does it display photos and video?
- How much is it and what are all the versions? What features do you lose?
- Does it have the Google+ app? Google maps? Navigation? Alarm clock?
- When is this available in Europe (more specifically the UK)?
This smartwatch looks really nice, but I think they should've made a gold version, that would perfect. This is the only smartwatch I would get.
They have been taking a lot of heat from consumers with claims of copying one device or another so I don't think they're ready to offer a gold color option for this device.
+SnorkFlirt Move on, troll. I refuse to acknowledge your idiotic, biased statements.
1:16 XD
Tizen? Isn't this Android Authority?
+BehelitOutlaw It works with some, but all Android phones and not smoothly. Sounds sorta like how some Android wear devices work with the Apple Watch. Anyway I'll leave it there instead of calling names hiding behind a keyboard.
Is this any better than the moto360?
Don't compare this unique thing with that 'Flat Tire' please. Just look at how cool it is, how easy it is to navigate, and how smooth it is.
+Mohammad Moin Shah (MMS) always see people mentioning flat tire. what does that refer to?
hypermetalsonic it is the name that Motorola has given to their circular display design of their Moto 360, which isn't fully circular, and features a black bar at the bottom of the display which houses the sensors, and makes it look weird and hideous.
se puede conectar a cualquier dispositibo samsung
Does it work with iPhones?!?!?
very nice
I got one ITS SO COOL
I might do a review on it
Finally these type of watches are looking better ... Now we wait for worthy batteries.
Anyone know if it will make calls via bluetooth to your phone like the gear 2 neo did? or is it limited to the 3g model?
It doesn't have a speaker :( but the 3G model has
Ah i see, well thats balls. Im guessing it has a mic to use for s voice, but no speaker=no calls.....oh well, still getting it.
wow earliest ive ever been 2mins :o
the gear s2 works on any andrid device that is 4.1 and higher
I need to know how to reset my watch stopped working someone help me
