In less than half a month, we have ushered in two new smart watches, the Samsung Gear S3 and the Apple Watch Series 2.
The Gear S3 is Samsung's more attempt in the smart watch market, and the Apple Watch Series 2 can be seen from the name, an enhanced version of Apple Watch. So as the two latest released smart watches, who is the best on the market? Let us compare them directly.
design
Like the S2, the Samsung Gear S3 continues the previous round dial design and offers both FronTIer and Classic versions. The former is equipped with a leather strap, while the latter has a more minimalist design. The FronTIer weighs 62 grams, while the Class version weighs 57 grams.
The Gear S3 still features a highly acclaimed rotating frame design that looks more intuitive and closer to the look of a traditional watch. The Gear S3 is equipped with a 360&TImes; 360-resolution 1.3-inch uninterrupted touch screen display, and thanks to the Super AMOLED display, the display is excellent.
The Apple Watch Series 2 is identical in appearance to the first generation, with a white ceramic version added and four times stronger than steel.
The Apple Watch Series 2 is available in 38mm and 42mm versions with resolutions of 272 & TImes; 340 pixels and 312 x 390 pixels. At the same time, the maximum brightness of the Apple Watch Series 2 is 1000 nit, which is twice that of the first generation Apple Watch, which makes it easier for the Apple Watch Series 2 to see the content on the screen outdoors.
System and software
Apple Watch Series 2 has built-in the latest first-generation watchOS 3 system, and has also improved in performance. Real-time heart rate can now be displayed in fitness apps. Similar to the Gear S3, the SOS help function is also added. If you are in trouble, the Apple Watch Series 2 will automatically alarm.
The hot game Pokemon Go is now on the Apple Watch platform, so it's easier for players to catch elf pets.
The Gear S3 uses Samsung's Tizen system, which is a mixed choice. Although Samsung said that the Tizen system already has more than 10,000 apps to choose from, it is still a lot compared to Apple's ecosystem.
However, in the Tizen system, apps like Uber and Spotify have been built into it, which means that for the LTE version of Gear S3 users, it is very convenient to call or listen to music directly through the smart watch.
hardware
The Samsung Gear S3 has a built-in 1GHz processor and 768MB of running memory, as well as 4GB of storage. The Gear S3 has a variety of sensors built in, including GPS, accelerometers, gyroscopes and heart rate sensors, so it's almost omnipotent for outdoor sports.
The Apple Watch Series 2 is equipped with a new dual and S2 processor, Apple said that compared with the first generation Apple Watch, there is a 50% increase in speed, and GPU performance has doubled.
However, because the two smart watches use different operating systems, it is difficult to directly compare them on the hardware.
Sport and waterproof
Both the Gear S3 and the Apple Watch Series 2 have built-in GPS capabilities, so they are great for runners and athletes. This means more accurate distance tracking, speed statistics, and running routes while running. The Apple Watch Series 2 even features the Nike+ Special Edition, featuring a sporty strap with a porous design.
The Gear S3 is IP68 rated and can be used for up to 30 minutes at a depth of 1.5 meters. The Apple Watch Series 2 is also equipped with a waterproof rating of 50 meters, so it can be worn while swimming.
Endurance
The Gear S3 has a built-in 380mAh capacity battery, which is a big improvement compared to the S2. Samsung said that the Gear S3's battery life can reach four days without interruption. In the case of high-intensity use, it can last for two days. Like the Apple Watch Series 2, the Gear S3 also adds wireless charging.
Apple did not describe the specific usage time of the Apple Watch Series 2, but we hope that there will be some improvement compared to the first generation of 18 hours of battery life.
Price and time to market
Samsung has not announced the price of the Gear S3, and it has not announced the time to market. And we expect to be listed in October similar to the Gear S2, and the price strategy is similar. Last year's S2 standard version was priced at £249 (about RMB 2210), while the Classic version was priced at £299 (about RMB 2,654).
The Apple Watch Series 2 will begin accepting reservations on September 9th, starting at 369 pounds (about 3276 yuan), which is much more expensive than the Gear S3.
to sum up
The Samsung Gear S3 is likely to be a very good sports smart watch, while the Apple Watch Series 2 improves GPS and water resistance. The 50-meter waterproof rating also makes Apple Watch Series 2 more popular with people who like underwater sports.
The Apple Watch Series 2 looks better and works better than a traditional watch, and at a lower price, with a better battery life.
