Customer Ratings & Reviews

My wife loves it especially since she can't always be around her phone. Great for running and listening to music on the go.

This watch looks great and performs flawlessly. It's quality build and always on display get the most compliments. Its easy to see, even outdoors and there are numerous videos on YouTube that can help you operate and customize it as you like. I am well pleased with its battery life. I bought some extra straps and screen protectors from amazon.

This watch is great. Much better than the competition if you ask me. Works best with Samsung phones. Does everything I need.

I've been loving my gear s3 watch from day one! The screen is amazing for dialog watch display! It just looks so realistic!

I just started using the watch yesterday. I am still carrying the quick start guide to help me understand the different features of the watch. I got it synced with my Galaxy S7 without any problems.

Quality is very good. Display is clear and sharp with good contrast. Easy to read and see in all light condition so far.

I am new to smart watches so two things I appreciate about the Samsung Gear S3 classic are its ease of use and the large display face. It has shown itself to be good at tracking distance of a bike ride or walk. So far all the features are working flawlessly. I do wish that I could get a larger strap for the watch.

This headset is amazing. Sound quality is as expected from Bose. I like that you don't have to press the power button for 3-5 seconds to power it up. Connects instantly with my devices. I also like that as soon as I power it up, it tells me how much battery is left. It fits well in my ears and isolates outside noise very well.

Bought this as a gift. They loved it. The watch can be used for business, casual or a night out. Works for any occasion!

I love this watch! It does everything I can think of. I still have not used all the apps yet but am having fun with it.

This is the 2nd "smart watch" I have owned and the first "Samsung" brand. I absolutely LOVE it. It does everything I was looking for and then some! I bought one for myself and my daughter the same day and she loves hers just as much. The layout is easy to navigate around in and you can customize it to the hilt. Much recommended!

I got a chance to play with a couple smart watches (android wear, apple, and nixon) and I think the S3 is the best smartwatch on the market in terms overall user interface, quality of life updates, and intuitive design. My overall experience thus far is a 4/5 star, but diving deeper into the programming and sync availability my overall rating loses one star, and here's why... Firstly, the S3 was designed for only Samsung users. I have a Google Pixel XL and I'm missing out on a lot of options. It is "non-Samsung" friendly in regards to user interface. You cannot pull up text history on a non Samsung phone (though, some [paid] third party apps may work, however, it should be hardcoded from the start to allow texting on any platform). You cannot use gmail or any mail client consistently on a non Samsung phone (again, there may be some third party apps etc etc). And lastly, and this also may include Samsung phones, but the calendar editing and syncing to gmail is non-existent. - If you do not have a Samsung phone, you are still able to send texts, make calls, etc....but the problem with texting is the fact that the text history is not consistent. - The lack of an email client for non Samsung users is very frustrating. BUT! If you open gmail on your phone and get new emails, you can view it on the watch. However, the design regarding the lack of a client for non Samsung users in itself is irritating. - Calendar editing on a non Samsung platform? Forget it. You cannot view specific dates, but only the calendar as a whole, and any events created from your phone. I wish you are able to create reminders from your watch that sync to your phone, but again, with a non Samsung platform, this is not possible. It may be possible with a Samsung phone, though. Second, s-voice is absolute trash. No question about it. Don't even try to use it. It is the most inconsistent voice recognition platform on the market. I am not the only one with this opinion, believe me. If you are looking for a watching for voice wake-up or voice commands, this is not the watch for you. Third, the tilt to wake is very inconsistent for me. I have to be very aggressive sometimes to wake the screen, and other times it is perfect. All these little inconsistencies add up. Fourth, the inability to customize ring tones and notification tones. Yes, there are workarounds to this, and it is definitely possible to get custom ringtones, however, it is a relatively tedious process and may be confusing for some. The option for custom ring tones should be available from the factory. And lastly, the lack of apps is downright pathetic. This watch has so much potential, and if there were better and more apps, this watch would be incredible. There are very few cool apps for the watch, but the ones that are worth it for me are the go pro app (paid), calculator (free), and timer (free). Yes, my review is mostly complaints, but I want to share the bad stuff about the watch. All things considered, the watch is great. It is very convenient for on the fly message viewing, snapchat notifications, instagram notifications, etc If Samsung fixed the "cross platform" faults, then this watch would easily be a 5/5. It's really not that much to ask, but Samsung do have a history of making proprietary designs after all...... Even though I absolutely love my watch, I would honestly say to just wait for the Gear S4, which is rumored to be released in August 2018, to coincide with previous trends of the Gear watches being released in August every year.... There are so many more improvements (rumors, though) that the potential Gear S4 will offer, to include the removal of s-voice and the addition of Bixby, a thinner watch body, and many cooler stock readings (body fat reading, body temperature, etc [again, rumors, but very possible]) that I would honestly just hold off on the Gear S3. But, if you must have it NOW, then it will prove to be a worthy purchase. I've had my watch for about a month now, and I don't go a day without wearing it. The convenience of on the fly viewing of all the apps outweighs the bad.

Purchased this watch after My S2 died on me. Loving the upgraded features. Only wish it came in Rose gold like the S2

I bought this for my wife as a Mother's Day present. It's rather big and bulky, but I found a nice ladies' white reptile-like band that adds just enough femininity to make it just right for her. She doesn't like to wear reading glasses every time she looks at her watch, and now she doesn't have to! She's a Galaxy Note girl, and the watch works brilliantly with (and without) her phone. With it, she makes/receives calls and texts, uses a couple apps, and checks the weather. With/without it, she tracks her excercise activity. I'm an iPhone guy (primarily because my work phone is an iPhone), and she bought me the Apple Watch for Christmas. She loves rubbing me about any and all features she thinks outperforms mine, like the activity tracker. Hers automatically recognizes when she does things like ride a bike. I have to tell mine what I'm doing. It's the little things :-)

After just a week with this watch I love everything about it. Being able to track the things my activity tracker did and still have a stylish watch has been the best. Changing to SHealth was a learning curve but was worth it. If you are looking for a great smartwatch that can also track your activities then this is the watch for you.

The only negative is that it's very masculine, and this was a gift for my wife. She still loves it, especially the big display. I bought her a white leather band, so it's a little more feminine (wish this was an option when buying because the band I bought is from a jeweler and doesn't have the "quick-slide" hole and spring bar, but I guess I could've ordered online from Samsung -- I couldn't wait though, and BB didn't have anything in stock). As for functionality, it hangs right in there with my Apple Watch. They're both very similar, but mine is a bit smaller (which I like). Hers may be a bit more user-friendly, especially for those who wear glasses. They both pair easily through Bluetooth connections, they're both rugged enough to resist scratching (we have screen protectors too--just in case), and they have pretty good battery life (days depending how much you use them).

I have been using the gear s3 classic for month and a half and it has becoming one of my favorite gadgets. It has an amazing design, it looks like a watch that match every formal clothing i use. It is easy to use and i have never had a problem with texts, calls or google voice. It has a good speaker and microphone.

This watch is so useful, especially when I don’t have time to look at my phone it’s right on my arm. Great purchase

Love the functionality. A big upgrade from the previous gear. I would've gave 5 stars if it weren't for two things. One. No camera. Two. The watch band is kinda cheap. Still I would recommend

According to a lot of people this is the current penultimate Gear/Galaxy watch. The build is great and it features an advanced cardless pay method that works with Samsung pay. If you have an S2 or Galaxy the UI will be 99.9% the same and it only comes in 1 size HUGEMONGOUS. I have manly thin dainty wrists and this watch eclipses basically my entire body so be sure to try one on somewhere before buying to ensure it fits.
