Minneapolis – Best Buy has begun taking pre-orders for Samsung’s Galaxy Gear smart watch.
The device, which was introduced earlier this month at IFA, must be ordered in-store within Best Buy’s Samsung Experience departments or stand-alone Best Buy Mobile shops for home shipment.
According to a Best Buy spokeswoman, the chain will offer the Galaxy Gear in at least five colors, including black, gray, orange, beige and gold.
Mobile carriers have also begun taking pre-orders for the smart watch, which goes on sale next week for $299.
