Sure, AndroidWear isn't much better but AndroidWear 2.0 and the ecosystem is still superior (or "WearOS").

    And while I think the Huawei Watch v1.0 has good software its hardware isn't as good.
    Whilst the Latest Apple Watch is the BEST overall smartwatch because of a combination of good hardware and good software, I would still rather the S3 Frontier with AndroidWear because I'm not into Square/Rectangular Smartwatches.

And if this was not the correct route, I don't think it isnt, they use Tizen for TV's and the more devices that use it the more Dev will adopt, Android Wear definitely isnt the correct way. Google needs Samsung in the wearables more than Samsung.

Apple watch may be more well known while Xiaomi watch is super cheap and affordable with Wear OS. Samsung Tizen watch is there to fit what other smartwatch cant do. It is Samsung ecosystem. We wont want the smartwatch industry to be ruled by android and ios only do we? Without Tizene existence other smartwatch will have monopoly and set their price higher due to lack of competition. If Microsoft ever make a windows watch that would make the competition bigger and smartwatches price need to go even lower if they really want to sell.

              Ima Samsung's problem is watch design. They have only one version and it fits only men and also not with small wrist. Basically it's bulky... They need to learn from Apple that one size don't fit everyone.

                It's obvious that the number sold aren't good for Tizen.
                How about having 2 versions, just to see which brings in more money for Samsung.

                  Tizen is good and smooth, yes it lacks of apps on its store
                  but it already loaded with lot of useful apps

                      LOL, Tizen OS is way much more superior for smart watch. Nothing to see here.

                            Good. There's no smartwatch out there that's as interesting and as utilitarian as the gear.

                                  Rumors for almost a year but nothing in the horizon. Samsung gets free publicity without even releasing a new smartwatch. Lol.

                                    Good - until Gear OS supports the rotating bezel, its better to stick with Tizen.

                                      Good .Google already have too much control in mobile os. android have advantage of apps,but you dont need too much app in smart watch.other than apps tizen is better than android atleast as a smartwatch os.
