Along with the Galaxy Note 3 the Samsung Galaxy Gear smart watch is also available online for Rs. 22,900. The Gear smart watch can be bought from the Samsung India Estore directly and can be pre-booked on other online stores.

Some online stores have started the pre-order process with expected date of launch by end of September 2013. The Gear smart watch doesn’t come cheap. In fact you need to spend a total of Rs. 72,890 i.e. the gear watch plus the Galaxy Note 3 handset, this is because the watch currently supports the Note 3 handset or devices running Android 4.3.

The Galaxy Gear smart watch is available in White or Black colors. It sports a 1.63 inch screen with 320×320 pixels resolution. Gear is powered by 800 MHz processor and also comes with a 1.9MP auto focus camera on the strap.

There is 512MB RAM and 4GB onboard storage. A 315 mAh battery powers up the device with estimate usage time of over a day. Users can not only read messages / get alert etc by can also use the watch as a phone – thanks to the built in mic and speaker.

I believe Galaxy Gear will not excite the users much, cause of two factors the price and the device compatibility. Check Samsung Galaxy Gear White and Samsung Galaxy Gear Black best price.
