It's got an 800mhz processor but multiple hands on demos are already describing lag ruining the experience....what gives?
The video of it on Engadget is just awful. The interface stutters at every gesture.

This will go down the same path as Android smartphones have gone. The terrible battery life will force them to have to use bigger batteries which they will cover up by increasing screen size. I can't wait for next year's Galaxy Gear S Note II with 4" screen.
Gonna love seeing the amazing quality pictures of everyones waist.
I think Samsung has the wrong angle. It just replicates and/or extends the functions of a phone. I expect Apple will feature a lot of fitness/biometric features that the iphone doesn't do directly, at least not without companion apps and not in a smart or automated way. I wouldn't be surprised if they have some sort of kinetic charging either-- something normal wrist watchers already do to avoid the need for winding.

All so they could shout "First!"
Gadget equivalent of a forum troll.
Whatever Apple comes out with will not be a smartphone on your wrist like this thing is. It will be a new device that combines multiple things into something you won't want to leave home without. From NFC, health monitoring, connectivity and other features along with a design that doesn't look like a watch (I mean seriously, it was SOOOO obvious what Samsungs watch was going to look like).
Yet another example of someone else doing it first, then Apple coming along and doing it right.
I believe it will become a new fashion icon around the world
Epic Fail.
