I will take a look at the Samsung Neo also...

The Gear 2 and Neo have built-in IR blasters, so you can use them as universal remotes for your TV, cable box or even air conditioner.

Samsung's WatchOn remote app, bundled with the Gear 2 and Neo, is a bit too barebones for our taste. But there's a great third-party replacement called Smart IR Remote that fills those gaps.

The Samsung Gear 2 Neo is almost exactly the same watch as the Gear 2. The only differences? The Neo is missing a camera, has a plastic body (in place of stainless steel) and is US$100 cheaper.

So Samsung has 2 smartwatches with IR blasters on them.

With the Smart things purchase they will want to control a LOT more things with them....
