I tried on the Gear 2 and was surprised by how much I liked it. The heart rate monitor was really cool. If they can just get the screen tech and battery sorted out then I will be lining up for one of those.

I've had my Sammy Gear Live for nearly two months now, and I'm still lovin' it. The only two issues I have are, as I said above, the band is a bit fiddly, but it's also hard to read in bright sun.

I have it set to max brightness and it helps some and doesn't seem to affect the battery much. I'm down to about 40% at the end of most days where at the default setting (medium) it was usually around 50%. Since I have to charge it every day anyway it really doesn't matter.
