Samsung Galaxy Gear Smartwatch $99 @ Bell
 
Galaxy Gear smart watch in black ? Bell Mobility | Bell Canada

I'll wait until it's < $79

Gear 2 looks a lot better though.

did some research into it and its really not worth the money.. camera is near useless with how it sits on the band, cant access anything from the screen, most things divert you back to your phone.. so its a about as good as someone writing a screenplay in starbucks hoping that everyone sees how awesome they are.

but! seeing as this will fail samsung will be forced to put some more effort into the next version!

it seems to be the only watch with a built in speaker for 'hands free'. i believe the pebble doesn't.

Meh.

Takes only 2 seconds to pull out your phone to check the time/any notifications.

Rather save $100+ :fuckthatshit:

For the 3rd party notifications, the latest FW that came out in Jan has addressed it


I'm going to wait till the new Gear Fit drops below $100 to consider getting one
