Technology - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Samsung seem to be Apples main rival at the minute with their ever growing range of smart phones and tablets. This is their latest product the "Galaxy Gear" that's being called a smart watch which can be connected to Samsung mobiles to make it easier to keep track of notifications such as messages and reminders and can even take photos. The overall aesthetic of the product is clean and simple making it appealing to a wide range of people. A negative point is that it reminds me too much of the I pod Shuffle not only from its small compact size but how they choose to variate the product through its brightly colored straps. Yes it allows the user to customize the product and make it your own but I feel Apple control the market place in this respect and as soon as you produce a selection of multiple colors everyone thinks of apple so I would just rely on the function and a simple clean aesthetic along with the new innovating technology within this product to make it stand out.
