Samsung Philippines is preparing to launch the Gear S2 smartwatch in the Philippines, officially. At the moment, you can get the Gear S2 from online which costs around $300 or P13,800. Likely, Philippines official price or SRP will sit between P14-16k pesos (our guestimate) inclusive with VAT.
For starters, the Gear S2 is the second generation smartwatch from the Korean giant company. The Gear S2 sports a waterproof design, rounded AMOLED display with a dual core processor, 512MB RAM, 4GB internal memory, and sadly, no camera unlike on the first generation Gear.
