friends, i am using Note 2 and saw the Gear S watch, i am interested in buying it, so can anyone tell me if its fully cmpatible with note 2 or not.
and if it can work with note 2 then what features i will miss with it
Thanks
I don't see why it wouldn't work. I have the gear neo and it pairs up with my note 2 just fine. You could try it and see. If all else fails just make sure you have your receipt and take it back. Good luck.

I loved my Note 2 but it was just to big. Using it everyday was fine but having somewhere to put it was a pain. Go to a game and try to put it in your front pocket and set down was impossible. I found myself holding it all the time which sucked. The S4 has been the perfect size to use it in the real world if you're active. Just my two cents...
I love my S4 but am also do for an upgrade and will be getting Note 3 when it drops.

Came from the S3 to the S4 too. Loved my S3 and the S4 is just the next step up. Great phone, perfect size, awesome screen. The note 3 is a pretty sweet phone too. It's up to you if the hugeness of the note is an issue or not.

Currently on the s4 no plans if getting the note 3
I would get the note 3
That snapdragon 800 is awesome
And the increase in size will make it feel newer longer

I am staying with my s4 waiting on s5 so whatever the note 3 has now will be the past and old by the time the new galaxy s5 comes out anyways its part of marketing scheme new features better hardware etc..
Also don't want to bigger then this 5inch screen its just right for me but everyone has there own preference. Battery life is great on stock kernel with custom roms.

There is a sticky thread to discuss upgrading
Questions before buying;
Does the S pen work on the gear watch for the dialer or going through menus and screens like in the Note 3?

It doesn't. Maybe will work an spend from galaxy S3/S4 but not from note series.

Do you really think Samsung would release the gear 2 3 months after releasing the original gear? I say AT LEAST 6 months before another one is released.

Yes , apparently Samsung is working on another.
Either rumor can be true or false.
A. A cheaper version without the camera and maybe other sacrifices.
B. Another version with an updated UI possible flexible display.
Yeh they though it was flop

The fact that they are working on a gear 2 means nothing in terms of launching date. It can be starting the design for all we know. No reason to believe on a jan launch. At least I don't think it's going to happen.

I also heard they are planning to release one not too far off the original's launch. I don't remember where I saw that tho.
They always overlap development to allow regular releases. But the Gear is still their "first"

Stupid rumors going around about S5, Note 4, Gear 2... they're not releasing new stuff just a few months later, not happening. The nearest blip on the radar is probably S5 with a Spring 2014 release.
There was a rumour a few weeks ago where a Samsung source said they were looking to move the Gear 2 release up to January in response to the negative feedback on the Gear.
Whether that's true or not remains to be seen.
I'm keen to get the Gear, but the recent issues with moisture in the camera lens is putting me off. I live in Thailand, so humidity is an issue, plus I'm frequently going from humid outside to cold air conditioned indoors.
Plus, I sweat a lot...
I think I'll wait to see whether the lens moisture is a problem in more humid climates and if it is, wait for Gear 2.

Dont look like they are running tinzen os then?
Evleaks is now saying that these watches are not Galaxy branded. So it seems Samsung is presumably just going to run with the Gear branding.
This is from gsmarena.com
Yep, these are probably the Gear 2 and Gear Neo... later will probably be the Gear Fit. I'm glad it doesn't look too different from my Gear watch... as I'm not ready to shell out more loot yet.
Digging the physical home button and new camera placement though.
Skype, anyone?

I am hoping that I can get a Gear Fit with it still having all the Gear 2 features like the camera.
I need to start saving now to buy this. Got to have it for my Note!
I saw a report saying they are indeed running tizen os.

Tizen on the new gear is a dead nogo imediately for me that is, I can imagine no apps for this thing and since tizen dont have an app store tell me how will we sideload apps from google play to it? The whole point was to make it slimmer and better. It looks the same. Looks thick like the gear and now its running tizen? Hell nah. Ill have to test it out and look more into it for me to buy it. Considering tizen is the os. I think I'll stick with my gear

Does anyone know for sure if the new Samsung Galaxy S5 phone? I just pre-ordered it, and now realized I was not sure of this.
The gear manager from s5 contains files to connect to gear 1 and gear 2
