No, And even people with Samsung Pay enabled phones will only be able to make 5 payments without their phone nearby before they need to reconnect the two. "2Make up to five payments on your Gear S3 without a Galaxy smartphone nearby after initial setup. Reload payment capability by connecting to a Galaxy smartphone via Bluetooth. Only compatible with select cards, carriers and Samsung devices; see the Samsung Pay Support page http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/samsung-pay#compatibility for compatibility information." http://www.samsung.com/us/explore/gear-s3/
Sorry, there was a problem.

Initial setup probably means you need to initially set it up with a Samsung Galaxy device first before using many of the features of the gear s3 including samsung pay. So you if you're Galaxy device isn't nearby, you can use samsung pay 5 times, but you have to reconnect it again after.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is a great question. There is not a guarantee that all features will work when paired with a non-Samsung device. Since the watch is like an extension of a phone, you will need the watch paired to a device in order to add cards and activate the account. I hope this was helpful and have a great day.
