Samsung Gear S2

Hello everyone,

Samsung has recently launch Samsung Gear S2. A Smartwatch with unique features that easily controlled, played with, and of course stylishly wearable, and on my case, preference, when used with certain wrist band. No worries, they come in many design and style. First, let's check their function before drooling about it being fashionably 'it'.

It is shaped exactly like a watch, but a smart one with rotating bezel to easily change it's feature..or may I say face. It has many faces. From presenting timing, line, messages, calls to collaborating with Nike+ Running. Everything related with daily lifestyle including health is here.

The good news is, Samsung Gear S2 is compatible with any smartphone you have, as long as it comes with one that above 1,5 RAM and Kit Kat.

The product comes in two variant, Gear S2 and Gear S2 Classic. Gear S2 Classic made for user with elegant taste of leather band while Gear S2 is ideal for those with active and dynamic lifestyle who adore minimalism.

One of the best feature that I like about Gear S2 is the 24-hour Activity Log that can keep on 'counting' our fitness level. Perfect for a busy mom like me to keep me moving or rest when I needed. The daily water and caffeine intake also can be counted with one of the feature.

Beside those, during exercise (or whenever possible) within turns and clicks away, Gear S2 comes with Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Heart Rate, AmbientLight, and Baromete sensors.

The battery last around 2-3 days and wireless charging is available.

After the team from Samsung Indonesia introduces us to the product that comes with 1.2", Circular Super AMOLED, 360x360, 302ppi is ready to be played.

Played? Yes, all the guests here can enjoy playing with the product and go to an adventure quests where we find out more.

The memory capacity is 4GB Internal memory/RAM 512MB. Communication features are contact, notification, SMS, email, preset text, voice input, emoticon, and keypads. Providing schedule, news, map & navigation, and weather.

And it doesn't stop there, it also comes with S Voice, Vice Memo, Find My Device, Power Saving Mode, Safety Assistance, Privacy Lock, plus it's waterproof.

We dunk it inside a water tank and it stays on and off and on again with no problem whatsoever. Perfect for a clean freak like me, I need to wash my hands frequently and taking them on and off will be a bother. Same goes when it is raining or during swimming.

After connected to your device, the smartwatch can easily help you receive calls (or reject them), reply and send messages, connected to line, and any other app that will probably linked in the future. In this way, you can keep being connected without keep opening your phone.

Many of us already suffer the lack of real social connectivity while keep on playing with our phone, with smartwatch and it's simplicity, actually, only the things are matter are inside the smartwatch, we can now look at our phone less as Gear S2 is here.

-*-

I was on a team with Dewi and we were both pretty enthusiast with all the quests. Apparently, we have to keep on tweeting while taking pictures and try to figure it out how to use the smartwatch in the best way possible. It's not as easy as we though it would be. The screen kept going off and with so many features, we were overwhelm at first, after all, the playing time is only around 30 minutes, we couldn't figure it out all of its features.

-*-




Beside looking like a professional the smartwatch does add a lot of simplicity in life, from those who spent time in mobility, traveling to living from meeting to meeting could keep themselves in touch without fail.
