    hope this isn't the final design.very poor, very chunky. no woman or a slender man would ever put that on a wrist. and that's most of the population out..let's wait and see

    Agreed with the above. The watch is way too chunky due to it's poor design.

    I highly doubt Samsung will sell many of them.

    Massive, and a 10 hour battery, do Samsung even understand what a watch is?

    I lost my habit wearing watches long time ago. Peeking at the phone is the new norm anyway, why reverting back?

    Top lel. Design wise it looks like one of those calculator watches from the 80's. And who wants to charge their watch every single day? Yeah no.

    I agree with everyone. Way too much volume. But guys remember this is the 1st gen of it.

    I believe it will take another 2(GSW3? if all goes well) for it to shed all that volume. :p

    Also Michael J. Fox was wearing one of those watches mentioned above. So it must atleast be somewhat cool right? :D

    If knowing the smartphone market right, they're only gonna get bigger. Soon we'll be walking with 7" screens on our wrists...

    Because not all people are tech-conscious introverts with phones always on their hands.
    It's easier to just raise one hand to look at the wristwatch compared to ruffling a pocket, fishing for the phone, and pressing a button to make the screen lit up.

    Anyway, agree with what's been said in previous posts: too bulky.
    But then again, I still reserve my judgment until its launch.

    They should've waited for Apple to release one first.

    :
    Before looking at your wristwatch it was a case of pulling your pocket watch out to see the time. So pulling something out of your pocket is actually 'reverting back' further.
