Gear Samsung S2 wants to be the best smart watch in the world. And maybe he does [IFA 2015] – Gazeta.pl

During the presentation Gear S2 at IFA 2015 in Berlin Tempodromie has particularly focused precisely on this innovative way to interact with the device. Samsung said that his ring is much more natural solution than a knob that Apple introduced the Apple Watch.

After the presentation, I had the opportunity for a moment to use the Galaxy Gear 2S and I have to admit that the rotary ring works pretty decently .

Innovation: e-SIM card and contactless payments

Gear S2 will hit the market in two versions – the classic and more modern. The first is known as Gear Galaxy S2, the second as the Galaxy S2 Gear Classic. They differ in detail envelope and bar that Classic version is leather.

Much more important are the differences in the parameters of the device: version designed for the European market will be deprived of 3G module – can be found in the integrated WiFi, NFC and Bluetooth. Versions with 3G will go to Asia and the USA. Here there is innovation – Samsung will use virtual SIM (E-SIM), through which the device will not need to physically insert the card.

You’ll pay a watch

Both models will appear while the function of the proximity of paying watch. This will be possible thanks to the combination of credit card numbers from Samsung Pay service.

Power Tizen?

Gear S2 is a device equipped with Exynos processor (1GHz) and 512MBpamięci of RAM. We have 4GB of data. S2 screen has a resolution of 360 x 360 dpi. It is covered by Gorilla glass Glass 3. Applied AMOLED technology makes colors appear on your display are very saturated.

The device is controlled Tizen system. I do not know if this does not prevent some hardware options, on the other hand clockwork installed dozens of applications that look good and function smoothly.

Gear S2 is compatible with all devices with Android, will also work with the iPhone.

Availability and Rates

Galaxy S2 will be available in mid-October, you will have to pay for it approx. 1200PLN.

Here’s the best smart watch the world?

The next generation of smart watches seems to be the solution polished, mature. Samsung hopes that its device in the best way meets the expectations that we have to smart watch. Gear S2 has a good specification and is really easy to use. The combination of touch screen and a rotary ring is probably the best solution I’ve seen.

Perhaps gear S2 is “something” what lack of competition. Unfortunately, the price makes many consumers may think that even such a fine-tuned machine is too expensive gadget.
