 It has a "spacious" 2-in curved screen that features its virtual keyboard. It must be a bit strange tapping out texts or emails on a curved 2-in screen, but Samsung auto-correct is reported to be quite effective.    

Despite its 3G radio, the Gear S isn't designed to replace your phone. But it can work partially without one.
