The editors didn't like
Some features still Samsungonly
It's more expensive
Requires a connected data plan to pair with
And runs out of battery life quickly on cellular. It's bulkier
Too. Also
The Gear S2 3G doesn't have that many great apps
And it doesn't yet work with iPhones
Fewer available apps or seamless connected services than Android Wear and Apple Watch
Based on our time with the Samsung Gear S2, we think it's a sleek smartwatch with an attractive design. It offers fairly standard smartwatch features like fitness tracking, but also includes some rather interesting features including a rotating bezel used...

Slick bezel controls, lovely display, light but well built, mostly fast performance
Tizen needs better third-party app support, not quite 4GB storage
The smartwatch market is getting very competitive, and Samsung has added yet another quality timepiece to a growing list of viable options. Tizen currently lacks killer apps, but it does feel like a more complete package than the ultra-simple Android Wear...

It's great to see Samsung injecting a bit of variety into the smartwatch market, and it's also good to see that it recognises it needs to be a bit more open if its Tizen wearables OS is to gain a foothold.The Gear S2's rotating bezel is genuinely brillian...
Beautiful round design, Elegant, fluid user interface, Rotating bezel is a true innovation, 2-3 day battery life
Barely any usable apps, Reactivation Lock is buggy, Fitness functions are very limited
I love most everything about the Gear S2, but I absolutely cannot recommend it — not at all. I had severe connectivity issues, and it appears that I'm not the only person. Aside from losing connection or slow connection, if the watch ever dies completel...
Limited number of apps, Lacking customisation options, Poor voice control
The Samsung Gear S2 is without doubt one of the best smartwatches I've ever used. The innovations that Samsung introduced with the device are meaningful, and change the way I interact with smartwatches. It's a well-made device, the rotating bezel i...
The Samsung Gear S2 makes a pretty good first impression. It looks much less embarrassing than the Gear S and the rotary dial on the front feels good and is properly integrated into the software. With at least two days of light use, it's also on-pa...

Rotating bezel FTW, Simple, speedy to use OS, Good battery life,
Tizen apps are limited, Software extras aren't perfect, Not as customisable as rivals
As easy to get on with as a Pebble, as stylish as an Apple Watch and with that tactile, rotating bezel as its secret weapon, the Gear S2 is the kind of smartwatch you'd kick yourself for leaving at home. It's not perfect - this isn't that dream hybrid of...
The Gear S2 has an eye-catching design, a clever rotating bezel that's actually useful, beautiful display, solid health tracking and slightly better battery life than other high-end smartwatches. Plus, it works with a variety of Android phones
Fewer available apps or seamless connected services than Android Wear and Apple Watch; no speakerphone; S-Voice commands work, but not as well as they could; not compatible with iPhone
Samsung's newest smartwatch reinvents itself with a whole new look and feel to create one of the best-designed wrist gadgets around -- but it still lacks the apps to set it above the competition...

Abstract: Having now tried out the standard Gear S2 and the Gear S2 Classic at a Samsung-hosted event at IFA in Berlin, we're somewhat less pessimistic. We couldn't test a few key features, but it was clear that both these smartwatches are better than their underwh...

Classy, understated design, Unique, clever rotating bezel, Works with all Android 4.4 phones
Some features still Samsung, only
Where the Samsung Gear S2 proper proves the concept for the firm's impressive sixth – yes, its sixth – take on the smartwatch, the Gear S2 Classic proves it can make a chic watch you'll honestly want to buy...
