it looks nice, and has handy features. I mainly use it to easily check incoming phone calls, text messages, emails, etc. Also has a handy weather app that I use every day now, as well as a calendar that makes keeping track of events very easy. Alarms are also a nice feature, and being able to sync to spotify on my phone is cool too.
Another cool feature I discovered when sleeping with my watch on, is that it records your sleep patterns. It also keeps track of how much you walk, how much exercise you get, etc.

This is my 2nd high end smart watch. And this by far, as you would expect on a 3rd generation product, is awesome. The health app alone is definitely a huge upgrade. The watch has great battery life and connects easily to multiple devices. The Samsung Pay app is a great addition as well. The controls and settings are easy to access.

I will be the first to admit that my products are primarily Apple, so I was concerned about the compatibility between my iPhone and this watch. Those concerns were proven false within the first day. While the OS does not offer the same compatibility with my phone as an Apple Watch would, I have had virtually no issues doing everything that I have wanted to do on it. Not to mention that I am a fan of the classic watch look, and this piece of tech delivers in a big way.

First, I'll say it looks great. It connects right up to my S9 without issue. What I dont like is that the message app only works with default one which as anyone who owns a S9 is horrible. There is a lot of tweaking that needs done out of the box like what app sends messages and I turned off the notifications if not wearing which should not be on by default. Admittedly I need to do more tweaking, but I'm learning as i go. It's definitely not a plug and play device.

Looks awesome when paired with a metal watch band. Long battery life even with "always on" setting turned on, lasts more than a day but I charge at night anyway. Doesn't run on android wear which I was accustomed to from my first watch (gen 1 zenwatch) however I am getting familiar with it. Paired with my Galaxy S7. No regrets with purchase.

This is a solid piece of technology. Best watch out there in the market. Battery timing is great. I use it with always on display and still get 2 days of use and i am a heavy user. Functionality is awesome. I am sure you guys already know every thing. Thank you Samsung for making it possible. If any one has any question feel free to ask.

I have already had to restart the watch once. For some reason I don't get all my notifications. The watch is a little big for my small wrist. I have gotten used to the weight, but it's pretty heavy.

I've owned two samsung gear smartwatches. I'm upgrading from the Gear 2 Neo and I have to say it is a great improvement.
I've only had it a little less than a month so far but I have yet to really find anything that I have an issue with. It's easy to use. The battery life is great, so far I've only really needed to once ever four days.

If you want a smartwatch that literally does everything and has an amazing battery life, get this. Works best with android, but it can be used with an iphone. I love the battery life on this and all the fitness tracking and everything else. I honestly never take it off and even use its sleep tracking feature

Big watches are a fashion statement and this one has great functionality. Paired with my Samsung S7 it can do a lot to save me time and make things more convenient. I love answering calls on the watch and handling quick text messages. My reminders and calendar are handy at all times. I always use it with Samsung Pay - so easy!

I got this watch because I prefer the more traditional design to the square apple watch. It is a great watch that does pretty much all that you could ask of it, but it has some bugs that make it frustrating at times. There are moments when I try to answer a call on it that it will tell me to check my phone. Other bugs include the screen going unresponsive for a short period of time. It is definitely better for Android phones over IOS.

This has exactly what I was looking for. I had bought and returned several different watches that claimed to do the things this watch does but they all failed my standards. I wasn't looking for an expensive watch but after 3 watches around $130 failed I decided to get the gear 3 classic just to see how it stood up to my standards with the thought that I was just going to return it because I didn't think it would do what was advertised like the others. I was very surprised by what the watch offers like you can view your texts a day respond to them when connected through Bluetooth response can be in 4 different ways speach, type, write or pre-made quick responses. You can also get phone calls from it as well as make phone calls. You can sync your music with it or you can download your favorite tunes from your phone to your watch however it takes up a lot of memory so I sync it to my phone. I have not figured out if it supports OK Google but that's not a big deal to me. Obviously I am keeping this watch I highly recommend it especially for a rookie like myself for new tech

I purchased the Gear S3, and have not looked back since. I originally got a Gear Fit 2 as part of my phone purchase and didn't realize how convenient having it would be. Decided to hold out on the Gear S3 because I wasn't sure if I would use all the features, or if the Fit 2 would be enough. After purchasing the Gear S3, I love the additional features it provides. It's the little differences that have made it a must-have for me. Having MST for Samsung Pay on the watch, with the ability to make purchases independent of my phone is such a convenience. Also, having the always-on display allows me to see what I need to without fully turning the screen on. I still haven't tapped into the full potential of the watch, and am extremely happy with my choice. The bezel makes navigating extremely easy, and a similar button layout to the Fit 2 has made it very easy to transition. Great product!
