Conor Pierce, Samsung's VP of mobile and IT, has told TechRadar that the company's smartwatch sales are "up several hundred percent" when compared to 2014. No company is doing as well as Apple in the smartwatch market, but Samsung's Gear S2 has been more successful than its predecessor.

The Gear S2, which came out recently, is already seeing 2,000 unit sales per day in South Korea. Samsung also has other wearables, including the Gear 2, Gear S, and Gear Fit on the market.

Even with these successes, Strategy Analytics reports Apple sold 4.5 million smartwatch units last quarter, compared to Samsung's 600,000.
