The Samsung Gear S2 will be compatible with iOS throughout this year

Since the official presentation of the Samsung Gear S2, many have been the users and experts who affirm that This new Samsung model is the definitive one to be able to conquer all those users that to this day have not yet decided to get a device of this type. From the design, through the finishes and the operation by turning the upper crown. During these days, the CES is being held in Las Vegas, where the large technology companies are showing the news that will arrive throughout the year in everything related to technology, be it mobile phones, home automation, household appliances, decoration ...

The Korean firm Samsung could not miss this event, where in addition to presenting other novelties, it has just announce two new high-end models of the Gear S2, has just stated that the application for iOS users to enjoy this device based on Tizen, will arrive throughout the year without specifying an approximate date. At the rate it is going, when the device has been on the market for a few months, chances are that the application reaches the market with the second version of this device, so to begin with, you are already losing the possible sales that you could have from iPhone users.

The Samsung Gear S2 is also compatible with Samsung Pay, the new payment method of the Korean firm that is gradually becoming available in more countries, while Apple Pay is advancing at a snail's pace. If they don't change things, and I highly doubt they will, the application for iOS that allows us to interact with the Samsung Gear S2, will have the same limitations that currently offer us the Pebble application and the Android Wear application, in which we can only interact in one way, except to control the music. A shame

    A small clarification, what rotates in this smartwatch to handle it is the Bezel, the Crown is the one that rotates to handle the Apple Watch.

    That said ... I had the opportunity to use a Gear S2 recently and I really liked it, it's a shame that apple is not going to let it be 100% functional with the iPhone.

      I was about to buy it, but as you say, a pity that they do not leave it 100% functional and also the first configuration is in an adroid: /
