Screen, body and style

Samsung Gear S2 3G Dark Gray is not a small round watch in Black with a 1.2-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen, which is protected by a Gorilla Glass 3. In our opinion, this model turned out in the unisex style (suitable for both men and women).

The case has a size of 51.8×44×13.4 mm with a rotating bezel (frame around the screen) made of Stainless Steel and has IP68 protection and is completely protected from water and dust ingress.

Processor, memory and functionality

Perhaps it would seem strange to choose a smartwatch in terms of technical characteristics, and not in appearance, because a smartwatch is the same accessory for a person as a conventional clock with arrows or a dial. But we decided that we need to tell about the processor, memory and functionality. So, Samsung Gear S2 3G Dark Gray has a 2-core processor Qualcomm MSM8x26 with 0.512 GB of RAM, and the built-in memory here is 4 GB. The battery in this model received a capacity of  300 mAh.

From the list of functionality, it is important to us that Samsung Gear S2 3G Dark Gray has a built-in GPS-module and NFC-module with support for contactless payments of the Samsung Pay.

And the most delicious we left for dessert :) This is exactly the functionality that will give you some freedom to use the smartwatch as a phone without a smartphone. This means that Samsung Gear S2 3G Dark Gray has an integrated GSM/HSPA network module, so without a smartphone you can receive calls to your watch, receive messages and perform many other tasks. From our own experience we can say that it is very convenient. And if you have the opportunity, we advise you to buy such a smartwatch.

Price for Samsung Gear S2 3G Dark Gray: buy or not to buy?

At the time of the official announcement in October 2015 a price of $300 was declared. We try to update this figure promptly every time the sellers decided to change it.

Whether it is worthwhile to buy Samsung Gear S2 3G Dark Gray at such a price with such characteristics, everyone decides for himself. Or maybe you want to choose other smartwatches at a similar price, then we advise you to go to the price segment page “Flagships smartwatches from $300” in our catalog.

One important thing, in our opinion, is that a smartwatch is not only a fashionable portable electronics, it is also an accessory that can complement your image. Come responsibly to the choice of smartwatches. Look in our catalog of options for colors and materials, of which the watch is made.
