When it comes to the Internet of Things or even a wearable smartwatch, the customer experience is everything. Trend Hunter chatted with Samsung Canada Chief Marketing Officer Mark Childs at a Samsung and Campagnolo event showcasing the Gear S.
Leading innovation in the realm of wearables, Samsung has a culture of continuous learning and development, and owes their wearable smartwatch success to feedback from customers. The Gear S, for example, strikes the perfect balance between allowing mobile users to be untethered yet connected to their smartphone. On the leading edge of innovation and technology, Samsung is excited about the opportunity the Internet of Things represents when it comes to contributing to the "open ecosystem" and improving everyday life for consumers. The curved 3G smartwatch did particularly well at CES 2015 earlier this year.
