I got one for "free" as they were part of the swag at a recent trade
show (also a Samsung Gear 2 watch) that cost $50. This is not something
to use for gaming.

The normal price is around $150 but that's without memory or storage.

Swag ? Like a give away ? Or like an extra ? Or what is swag ?

From Wiki...

"Swag, promotional items given away at trade fairs and events"

Probably originated from:

"Swag, slang originating in the early 1800s for stolen goods or
booty."
"

But is swag free ? Or a product sold for a big discount ? Or can it be
bought ?


It's generally free, included in a "kit" given away as promotional
material. Someone bought it. There are companies that specialize in
making "swag". Some booty I've been given include, pens (usually go
in the trash), laser pointers, and USB sticks.
