It's more like Android Wear: get messages look at apps track your fitness listen to music stored on internal storage (4GB) with a paired Bluetooth wireless headset and respond to messages or trigger voice-activated actions using a built-in microphone. There isn't a camera and you can't make phone calls via speakerphone anymore (some will regret this). The Gear S2 doesn't do as much as the crazy feature-rich previous Galaxy Gear and Gear 2 watches did on paper. There's also a thicker-bodied 3G version coming in November to the US on AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile, which adds standalone functions and built-in GPS using its own 3G cellular connection for around $350 (some carriers may offer different pricing). There are a few other Gear S2 options to choose from: Samsung's step-up Gear S2 Classic uses regular watch bands and has a slightly more compact ceramic body, but costs a bit more at $350 (AU$599, ВЈ350). Despite relatively short battery life and some shortcomings for the hard-core athlete, it's a great-looking, feature-packed fitness band. This summer, the company introduced its Samsung Gear Fit 2 - a mini fitness smartwatch featuring a slim design, beautiful curved AMOLED display, GPS, heart-rate monitoring, onboard music storage for up to 1,000 songs, all-day fitness and sleep tracking and automatic exercise detection. And its app selection is still pretty weak. Samsung also has yet to deliver the iPhone compatibility it promised for the Gear S2 back in January. Though it's an interesting device, it's not particularly easy to use and it comes up short compared with the Gear S2 it's bigger, more expensive, and comes equipped with a weaker battery. In the meantime, earlier this year, Samsung introduced the Samsung Gear S2 3G - a close copy of Samsung's Wi-Fi-only S2 smartwatch, only with the addition of a speakerphone, built-in GPS, and phone and data service. It's a safe bet that the Gear S3 unveiling could happen at the same show this year. Samsung's Gear S2 debuted last year at at the IFA show in late August.
