TECHi's Take
Bulky, sluggish and unintuitive, Samsung’s Galaxy Gear hasn’t exactly lived up the hype or the expectations of a ‘smartwatch’.
The Galaxy Gear wasn’t Samsung’s first stab at a smartwatch. In 1999 and again in 2009, it had a go at chunky digital watches but neither took off with consumers. Samsung’s grand vision for the Galaxy Gear was “a companion device that will keep us constantly connected,” as Samsung‘s executive vice-president of marketing Lee Young-hee described it.
