Device feels very sleek, I could totally wear it if software were more usable. There is even some security, you can set a pin code that you need to enter after you take it off.

Display is large enough for analog clock and date |
HR monitor looks similar to fitbit and even better as it's almost completely flat. Though the whole device is significantly bigger.

Gear on the left, fitbit on the right |
"Smart" features, notifications, custom apps, color AMOLED display, dedicated GPS and standalone WiFi connection are very cool but I don't know any good use for all that. Installing Spotify on it sounds like a good idea but Spotify is not available in the region I'm currently in and Galaxy Apps doesn't do it like Play Store (uses location instead of billing address) so while I totally can install and update Spotify app on my phone, I can't do it with Gear.
Wrist band is just shitty, it's too easy to unclick it and loose the device. It also straps in counter-intuitive direction (from bottom to top), I wonder if you can switch its halves.

Huawei straps in the other direction as you can see |
As I said, it was good to try it for change but it's probably not the device I'll use and I don't know who might want it. If i don't find anyone maybe I'll just sell it on ebay while it's still almost new.
