Charging brick for the Gear S2?

[louzer]

I got a UK version of the Gear S2 that comes with the phone, charging dock, USB cable, and a UK charging brick (not compatible with US power outlets. I assume that the charging brick is the only difference. Does it matter what charging brick I connect the charging dock to? If so, what are the specs for the US charging bricks that come with the US version of the Gear S2?

Nope, you should be fine with any USB brick.

Thanks. I look forward to pairing it to my S7 edge!

Just to be 100% safe, read the manual to make sure to read the manual and see if it mentions a maximum input for the charger. If it does, don't go over this and you'll be good.

I'd say use one of the $5 charging bricks from a gas station that don't put out much power. I've used these for wearables since a more powerful quick charging brick is overkill and could damage the battery.

You can probably use any Qi enabled wireless charger as well. I know I was able to use my old Nokia pad for my old Moto360

Turned out not to be an issue. Even though it's a UK model, it ended up coming with a US charging brick. I'm really enjoying this watch!
