After months and months of anticipation of the smart watch, Samsung debut Galaxy Gear during the Galaxy Note 3 Presentation. While stopping the keynote speech to receive the a demonstrated on this smart watch, American finally got what it was hoping for. With the development of Google Glass taking all the news this past year, the new innovation of wearable technology seems to be the new trend now that smarthphones and tablets have been in the market for quite some time.
After using the Galaxy Gear, the life of the battery, how to charge it, and a lot of stuff people are not going to use, the excitement of the product fell flat. Not to mention that the watch only works with the Galaxy Note 3, and i havent herd any speculation that this will work with existing phones such as the Galaxy Note 2 and the very popular Galaxy S4. With the watch striking similarities to the ipod nano of old that apple once developed and abandoned, people (and myself) didnt fall in love with the smart watch, or like a lot of people... We will wait for Apples version of the iWatch.
With the recent hiring of the Yves St. Laurant executive, Apple once again is putting design and appearance first. With Samsung delivering the first punch and missed, Apple has the opportunity to steal the thunder that was missed and deliver an outstanding product that will be functional as well as beautiful. The iWatch is the next thing in the developments to try and lure former Apple users turned Andriod, back to Apple and the iEcosystem.
Even with Sansungs recent campaign of making the smart watch feel Bond-like, you would fell Bond-like with a 1 megapixel camera and also if the functionality isn't there. I know Samsung wanted to have the first strike and beat Apple to the punch, which Blogs and reports say that they will unveil during the announcement of the new iPad line up. Now Apple is in a particular situation of counterpunching Google and Andriod instead of just blowing the competition away with a first round knock out, it now has an opportunity to reclaim innovation and show consumers that they still get it right the first time.
I mean seriously.... Its just a watch right??????
