El Samsung Galaxy Gear It is a striking and innovative device, we have already commented on it on countless occasions, but even so we must be aware that it has a series of improvable details and that move it away - and quite a bit, in addition - from being the gadgets perfect. In the South Korean firm itself they seem to be aware of this and even more so if we take into account that a document recently leaked by a retail company shows a Samsung smartwatch return rate above 30 percent.
The concern of the Seoul-based company about its smartwatch is such that just over a month ago one of its executives admitted in statements to The Korea Times which the Galaxy Gear still lacked "something special". Now, the leak of sales documents from Best Buy stores would have ended up unleashing unrest within the Asian giant, which would have asked its employees and retail associates their opinion on the reasons why about one in three devices sold are returned by the buyer.
On the other hand, certain sources such as PocketNow warn that BestBuy's figures could be excessive. Despite this, they admit not having data on the percentage of returns of the Galaxy Gear in other marketers, although they do not hesitate to venture that one could easily be talking about a rate of return close to 20 percent Which, incidentally, is not a much more reassuring figure either.
Finally, we wanted to clarify that the situation you are in Samsung with its Galaxy Gear It is something that was possible from the outset. Those who innovate always risk taking missteps or criticism like those received by the smart watch from the South Korean company. What is clear is that Samsung It has had enough arrests to take the step and take out a device with characteristics that, with the well-known failures and successes of its smartwatch, have not hesitated to copy many other firms when joining the bandwagon.

It was more than clear.
so they didn't buy it. I didn't see him from day one that he was going to be successful (maybe just for a couple of days, to talk to him to tease friends of the novelty as if you were a secret agent, or to make chops).
What is not attractive is that you have to connect it to the device and the design is very bad.
They must make a cell phone watch and it would sell more and with a bigger, thinner screen.
And that there is not so much space around the edge of the clock.
Samsung's watch looks ugly and very ordinary I wouldn't buy it
A cell watch? I am disagree with you. I prefer it to be an "extension" of my smartphone. The problem with the gear is the battery life, the design that leaves much to be desired and the incompatibility with google services, for example you cannot read an email in gmail directly from the watch. I hope that the smartwatch that google will come out shortly meets the expectations and then if I will buy it.
Noooooo already is the Sony one, and for more accessories technology advances towards simplifying things not complicating them and renting them.
Well, I share more about oskix, I don't need a watch cell phone, what I need is to be able to answer or call from my phone from the Samsung Galaxy tab with a gigantic 10.1 screen in a comfortable, fast and simple way, I wish they would lighter, cheaper because it is not for the price with which they launched it, I prefer to wait for them to improve this accessory and not risk it, also it is super honest to say that samsumg will soon leave it almost free as the new ones come out, Greetings.
Samsung thought it could make a garbage of a watch, put a price tag of 300 euros and wait for the idiots to bite. But fortunately there are not as many as they thought.
"Eye-catching and innovative" HAHAHA. It is a disaster that was easy to foresee its notable failure.
When it's worth 100 dollars, I'll buy it, as Samsung likes to varate! price will surely go down in a nosedive.
