 Hey guys, this is David with The Verge and this is the Samsung Gear S. It was announced last week but this is Samsung's newest smartwatch. It's running Tizen and the different thing about this is it's not really actually in need of your smartphone very often. It has a 4G connection and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and everything it needs to basically run all by itself. It's not designed to replace your smartphone so much as just let you leave it home for a while. So the best new thing about this, it's running Tizen and the best thing is that it actually has good notifications. So you can see the full text of somebody who texts you or calls and you can actually just call them right back and you can do pretty much anything you need to do from your watch itself. You can send emails back to people from the watch. You can say, hey, I don't know who this is that I'm texting but you know that's okay. Hey guys, oh hey you. Send text message and it's done. It has a lot of the same Tizen apps as some of the other watches. The app store is a thousand strong and getting bigger all the time. It has all the S-Health stuff. It'll measure your sleep and your steps and all kinds of different stuff. The biggest problem that it still has is that it's just big. It has nice looking watch faces. S-Voice is handy. Being connected this way is great but it's just going to be big on your wrist. It has a really lovely two inch curved OLED display that looks really great but it's just big on most people. The replaceable watch bands will make it a little easier for a lot of people but I think having a watch this big is still going to be a problem for some people. But this is the Samsung Gear S. We don't know when it's coming out. We don't even know if it's coming to the US yet but this is at least for now the latest and greatest Samsung smartwatch.
