Samsung Gear S2 and Google Pixel Compatibility?

I read that the Nexus 6p had problems - some say they were worked out, some say they still had problems. Anyone?

I’ve done some searching but nothing which answers your question. Hopefully someone has experience with the same devices and can shed some light on whether the two work together.

Should work. I have my S2 Classic LTE paired with my 6P. Everything works fine. Just make sure you install the Gear Manager app and plugins.

I have a Gear S2 LTE Sport and it works just fine with my Pixel, better than with my 6P actually.

I have the S2 non LTE version and it works fine with my Pixel XL.

I traded my gear s2 in for my gear fit two for running.

Glad to hear its working fine. Samsung was awesome for making it compatible with all of android so I can still use it despite having to give my note 7 back

And I got it for free with my note 7 ha

When I have my Gear S2 connected to my Pixel, my car cannot connect to the Pixel properly. I have to turn off my Gear to get the phone to connect to the Pixel. From my Windows Phone days, I was able to use my band with no issue and when I got in the car my Lumia would connect to car just fine. Just started wearing the Gear this week after I picked up the Pixel so I do not know if it is the phone, Gear or even the car.

But can you accept calls and send texts and everything?

I have a gear fit1 and have been unable to pair it also.

My understanding was that Samsung gear products only worked on Samsung devices.

Only specific ones are restricted to Samsung, like Gear fit, etc..

Gear S2 with LTE worked with my Nexus 6, then with my current Moto Z Force. Hoping it works well with my Pixel XL when I get it in December.

I have had 2 Gear S watches and have had very little trouble till now. Verizon is sending a new watch because after 3 total hrs and 2 days trying to connect was a pain. Looks like the application is having issues along with the watch.

First the guy said that it seems that the phone overrides the watch and factory resets it and that the watch shouldn't do that. Then he calls me back after I had the insurance send another and tells me he thinks it's the phone.

Good luck and I'll post here if it works out later ..
