To hold its prey, one of them then puts forward his biggest asset … his fiery eyes? Colgate smile ? His humor and personality, unusual? No: his watch GALAXY Gear ! The opportunity to show the different possibilities offered by the accessory, such as voice dialing, photo taking, control the phone remotely or receiving calls, all without having to leave his phone pocket .
