Great Watch
I have owned the watch for about a month and I am Quite satisfied with the product I love the way it feels I was worried it would be to big on my small wrists ,it fits just fine .I bought extra bands and it switches out easily, as for the watch it's self I love the functionality of it's design ,the battery goes 2 and a half days less if you use a lot of bright clock faces . The notifications works well and while driving I just have to hit the phone button to answer.
Love it so far!
I have only had this smartwatch for one day but I must say that I'm very impressed with it! It is a great addition to my work and I love the ability to place calls, etc., with it. I suspect I'll even love it more after a bit more time passes! Samsung makes some really great stuff! My wife and I both have Galaxy Note 5 phones and I couldn't be happier with them, either!
Nice watch!!! Classic gear 3
I had a LG Urbane before buying the gear s3 and while I did my homework on both because then I had a LG V10 I went with the Urbane. I still wanted to get gear s3 because I thought it was a better watch and when I bought the LG V20 I bought gear s3. The watch works well with this phone. I did had a little problem with the notifications with the Verizon text though. I had to use the LG text to get it to work. This was the only problem had with this watch.
Everything you could ever want
I opened the box and was impressed right away. The presentation of the watch is immaculate. It has good weight to it and feels like a durable watch. I got this delivered to me at work and had my coworkers watch me unbox it. They were all immediately impressed by the sharp colors in the screen and all of the features I started listing off. They all played with the bezel and felt like it was probably the most helpful tool to have on the entire thing. They all got excited with me as I kept playing with it throughout the day and experiencing some of the features for the first time. There's plenty of apps to download. My wife was skeptical when I got home (I didn't tel her I bought it because it's a little pricey) but when I showed her I had already put several of our pictures on the watch face, she said I earned a kudos. When I showed her the SOS feature, she genuinely was impressed. Still my first day having it but I can already tell how much better it is than my Gear Fit2. Still great watches and fitness bands but the Gear S3 is superior.
Great build quality and feature packed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stylish design and development from original gear is fabulous. The microphone supplies clear sound to any callers. The built in activity sensors offer an in depth analysis for exercise and health. Great in built speaker for music playback as well as clear calls.
A Timely Conversation Piece!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had been using the watch for about 3 weeks now, and the first impressions are that the watch is amazing. Dont have to worry about charging it everyday(like the other smart watches I have) so that is one of the highlights. Also the audio of music playback is really good. And dont have to worry about taking it off when going for a swim as it is water resistant. Also having the GPS is a good feature as I go hiking a lot and now I have an easier way to find my way back. Also like the Find My Car option that comes with the TIZEN OS, as that is one of the biggest hassles of finding the car once we go to a mall. One negative feedback would be is that this watch may be in a tough competition with the Android Wear 2.0 which is supposed to come out with some new features, and I am actually waiting for that. Good feature is that the Samsung Pay is integrated with the S3, which is good, because now I dont have to carry phone if I go to gym and I need to pay for something. The Bezel is much smooth to use compared to the S2 Classic.
Almost perfect...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using my Gear S3 Frontier now for a few months now and I am impressed with the build quality and functionality of this smart watch. It is a high quality build and feels very robust on your wrist, if not slightly on the heavy side, but I do like heavy watches. It also looks absoultely gorgeous and the ability to customise the watchfaces helps to keep it looking fresh. The software is easy enough to get use to and there are a reasonable selection of applications available. Linked with S Health is a great addition and it regularly takes your heart rate and feeds it back to the app. It also gives you nice little prompts when you have been sat down for a little too long. The frontier watch also has some good additional features for the active amongst us, such as GPS, altimeter and barometer. Having owned a couple of smart watches in the past, this is the best by far and I would defiantly recommend it. Samsung have almost got to the perfect watch with this latest iteration.
The best smartwatch on the market
I love that this watch actually looks like one. The rotating bezel is the reason why I've chosen this watch over all the others I've tried. Battery life is 2 days easily on the connected model. Watch bands are super easy to replace and there are tons you can buy even regular 22mm watch bands for analog watches. There are a ton of faces for the watch as well. My only gripes are the front rotating bezel seems to scratch rather easily. Also I would love for an app to play streaming music without having to have my phone on me. I pay for data service as it is. That would make the monthly charge easier to swallow. It is very snappy and responsive. Navigating around is a breeze with the 2 buttons and the rotating bezel. No swiping 100 times to find what you need. You can also take calls through Bluetooth or speakerphone all without having your phone. It also works flawlessly on iOS devices which is great considering you can't use an iOS watch on a Samsung phone. There are a few things that are left out like the quick reply to end calls but all in all it's a great must have device. If I forgot my Note 8 at home I wouldnt feel compelled to go back home for it. This can handle my day without needing a full phone.
Very Misleading
On Samsung website they're advertising products stating that these products can withstand water for a long period of time, ok to drop and dust resistant. This information is very very misleading. I'm a service provider and watch my hands occasionally and was told my watch is water damaged because I put in water for too long. This was very disturbing when I know for a fact that the most I do with this watch on is wash my hands. Please don't be misled... I will never by another watch from this company. I have several galaxies and note phone from them and is very concerned at this point. I will be going to other consumers whose products actually does what advertise.
Gear S3 Classic
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow!! What an amazing product! I had some doubts about this watch but it totally won me over! First of all the packaging- great presentation. Straight away you feel quality! The watch is packed full of features and is definitely up there with the best smart watches on the market. It works perfectly well with my Samsung phone and I can check all notifications quickly. Connecting with my phone was very easy with minimum effort and time. It's super easy to use, customise it for my likings. Full of different apps, receiving and making phone calls, sleeping monitor, tracking gps ...etc I am so pleased that I had this opportunity to test this watch. I don't know how I've been functioning without it before. It looks and feels right! Overall I am really happy with the S3 Classic and have decided to keep it. At first I was a bit apprehensive about the original price but now after using it I am definitely recommend it to anyone who is thinking of owning a smart watch. Thank you to the Insiders for giving me this opportunity to take part in this fantastic experience!
