2014-04-30
today's video is made possible by Squarespace what's going on Tech fans well it's me I work here on tech go tomorrow and first up I gotta say I think that you people on the East Coast are much tougher than us people out here in Cali because when it drops a few degrees out here like honestly it was like 90 yesterday and like 70 today I'm freezing now I know you guys in the East Coast you're going sissies but man in California 20 degrees is a lot I'm actually freezing at 68 degrees I know it's crazy so what are we doing here on TECA tomorrow well today we're going to bring you guys the gear 2 from Samsung now you guys all remember we got the original gear before we did some stuff with it so now we're going to bring you the unboxing what so it's all about then we're going to take it to the gym and test it out just like we did before and see hey what this thing is all about so first off let's start off with the box we're just like the s5 it's made out of recycled material and that's so we Inc not a lot to this box anyways just got you know basically four little corners here it says it was made in Vietnam so that's really cool for the Vietnamese people getting some of that Samsung cash thumbs up for you guys hope it helps your country and that's really pretty much it not a lot to the box folks just in the back of it talks about it's Bluetooth connectivity all that kind of stuff and basically use this thing you connect it up to your phone and then you go from there it's not really so much a standalone product it actually works with your phone so with that said let's go ahead let's flip it around real quick here I'll go ahead and pop the cap then inside we see the watch I'm just going to go ahead and remove that and set it down let's see there's anything else in the box which there is right here we have the accessories charger it's just your standard micro USB no USB 3 on this we'll set that down now next up is something really kind of weird and from what my friends have been saying this is kind of a pain in the ass let me get this out of here this is actually the charging module so before you can even charge this and use this you have to attach this to the back of your SmartWatch now personally I think that's going to be a little pain in the ass but we'll get to that when we get there so beyond the actual device and it's charging accessories we get a little bit of nomenclature here we got the quick reference manual this will tell you how to use the smart watch how to adjust the band all that stuff we've got one more little piece of nomenclature this is the health and safety and warranty guide so with that said let's hop in the gym and let's see what those things all about or anybody so there you have it we were in the gym now I just gotta say a few things about the SmartWatch a for one thing was a lot easier to use actually than the s5 you guys saw how easy I was to set it up and the heartbeat monitor oh my god amazingly a lot better on this it reads from the actual underside of the watch instead of having to put your finger on it if you guys are wondering why I'm squinting it's actually right out here I feel like I'm filming in friggin Florida or something day we started out this morning was overcast and cloudy now it's getting overcast again well behind me we have a fountain so you guys all know this thing supposed to be waterproof so why not let's just give it a test fountain let's do a little watering and then let's act like we're a complete dumbass oh my god I dropped some money into the fountain voila money but I won't steal it I'll make another wish alright folks outside we were trying to the water test and everything was really hard to see the screen I'm going to have to adjust how long before the light goes out because it keeps dimming really really fast but you guys can see it's all clear throughout in here and now I'm actually going to look right here I actually missed a notification so here's a notification it says I missed a call and it says I missed a call from Jonathan Morrison my business manager and business partner and I guess he's going to call me back right now we'll see how it actually looks when someone calls you on the phone so you guys can see now Jonathan's calling up I had my headphones on like I did earlier I could actually answer this entire thing through my headphones or through the watch itself so let's go ahead and answer it hey what's up there Johnny hello yeah actually I can hear him through the SmartWatch it's a little bit hard I can hold it to my ear but I can hear him enough to hold a conversation like I said most people are probably going to be having their headphones on stuff like that I plan to use this for mainly traveling doing my exercise the gym and mainly just walking the dog and stuff like that but so far it seems pretty interesting and a lot of the features seem a lot more intuitive straight ahead than they were on the s5 so we've been to the gym we've been to a pond kind of Dovan got that thing all wet and I've been using this thing now for about a week since we last saw you over there and there are some really cool things about this Smart Watch now there are some things that are also kind of lame now using the new s voice feature is really really cool it's easy just to go ahead and talk and get things to access call Jesus hey bro where's my food my food like where's my burrito Dawg I'm hungry what dude I thought you were a Mexican what happened I was really craving a burrito sir oh oh I see how it is around here okay well then uh you just have a good day there sir all right bye you can easily access all your contacts you can immediately keep notes for yourself like everything's very easy to access on this new gear too now compared to the gear the original one I think this thing has actually come a long way especially as far as style and stuff goes it's a lot easier to use the interface is much nicer it's quicker now some things on this thing are really really though extremely lame I gotta say that the way that this thing charges having to have a separate little thing that you snap on and then plug into another USB thing it leaves total room for somebody to lose this I mean that's just straight up and I mean I really wish in a way that this thing did not have to always be connected to your phone I wish they come out with the real Smart Watch though it'd be more of a life-changing thing even though this thing is really cool and I'm going to keep it I think for a lot of people out there three hundred dollars it's not going to be a life-changing thing now being able to have it around with you being walking around not to dig your putt you know your phone all the way out which may be really cool for some people so let me talk a little bit about that so I mean I didn't really like the chair to always have it but there are some cool advantages like a lady you carry in your purse you can slap it in your purse you're a guy you have a pack or something you can throw it all the way in there and you don't really have to be carrying it around and be touching it all the time and you can access everything from the SmartWatch you can make your phone calls you guys saw all that cool stuff that I did the gym the heart monitor on this thing is really really awesome it's so much easier to use than the one that was on the you know the s5 that thing was a pain the but trying to use that was like ah this is so much easier so there are some really really cool things ease of access where you're walking around and just having something you know right here on your watch that you can access is pretty cool now in case some of you guys missed it when you're using the s5 you have complete control over your TV and stuff like that you can actually sit there and program all that stuff and this transcends over into the Smart Watch so that's pretty cool so if you don't want to use your remote or anything you know you just go up click on your old Smart Watch couple in the KaBlam and you're off and you're operating your TV now the very absolute most useless thing on this is the camera it's like off your to the side and it's just really weird I don't know it's hard to use I think if you were actually trying to walk by and use a semi trailer like a rescue like we were actually talking about like doing some kind of funny skit were like I have the police like fake arrest me for taking funny pictures but yeah we'll just talk about that right here so that's kind of a totally useless thing about it so the camera feature I'm not going to use it you're probably never going to use it but for $300 I think it's a really cool deal there's all these pebbles there's a one I look like last week the phosphor thing this is a totally different type of breed and if they could just get this thing to step that next level and not have to be slave to my phone all the time I would be totally just going alright this thing is simply amazing as is it's pretty cool for $300 is it worth it yeah I have to say that it actually is it's not a ripoff in any way you get your watch you get your weather you get your notes alarms all that kind of stuff you can set up things to wake you up you can tell you when to call people I mean it's got all kinds of cool stuff in it for the guy who's traveling
