    This is the wearable we have been waiting for. The rotating bezel and Samsung pay are my favorite features. The frontier seems to be the one more sought out after but honestly, the classic is great too. With the interchangeable bands you can adjust to suit your style. I think this is the best smart watch you can currently buy.

    Very cool watch. Just wish I could get my google play music onto it. Replaced the band with a stainless steel one and it looks much better.

    The watch itself is nicely made and very convenient. Switching from an Apple Waltch took some time to get used to. The raised bezel made using the features complicated for large fingers.

    I had the Gear S2 and liked it. I was missing being able to take a phone call with the S2. The S3 I can have a conversation with someone through the watch if I do not want to pull out my phone. The display is nice and clear. To rotate the screen is easier with the S3 Classics, because it is not a smooth surface. .

    I like the gear s3. This is my first smart watch. So far no issues with it. The only annoying thing is that you have to charge it about every 3 days but is okay for the service you get.

    Listen spend the extra money and get this watch! It is amazing! It does EVERYTHING! I had a fit bit and this is 100x better! Text, talk, pics, video chat, play music and track fitness, calories, water intake and I'm leaving a ton of stuff out. Even Apple folks like it. Get the watch, you will NOT be disappointed!

    Beautiful well designed watch. Love the different types of faces and ease of the bezel. Setup was easy. The only negatives are the stiffness of the leather strap and the app selection.

    Battery can go 2 days for sure or more depending on the face and apps you use. (watch only really does last for about 40days!) Great tracker and the apps help with fitness goals. Many great watch face options. Make sure you have an up to date phone or the watch doesn't always get along with it.

    This watch does everything I wanted it to do, then some. It allows you to read emails and text and reply when on the fly. A bonus, you can also use it to talk on your cell phone. Does everything I wanted in a smartwatch. It was easy to set up and easy to use. Would definitely recommend.

    The watch is nice but very large for my daughter. It did come with both a large and small band. It would have been nice if Best Buy had it on display and she could have tried it on.

    Have been using mine since it came out ealy adopter. Came from microsoft band 2. Love the customization but hate the typical Samsung rear end support. Need faster updates. Great watch avg. Day and a half battery life, but it charges quickly. Make sure you get the tampered glass screen protection. I am on my 3rd one puttung my 4th on tonight. They help alot. See pic below i work Construction and wear it 24/7.

    Wear OS would make this perfect.

    The watch itself is a great design, I would easily put this 5 stars if samsung didnt focus itself on tizen. Tizen is ok.... seriously just okay. If samsung moved to supporting wear OS on their watches it would make this a top tier watch. The battery life is amazing, I switched from the apple watch when I switched to the Note 8 instead of my iphone. The apple watch set the bar high and to be honest no smart watch can touch the Apple watch. The ticwatch was the best as far as interface but the battery was insanely pathetic, I averaged 6-8 hours before the battery died. With Samsung I get 2 days if I want to, I typical just charge it overnight because I don't see the need to wear a watch to bed. I know my review is getting off topic here but if you want battery life the gear S3 is perfect, if you want usability the ticwatch is perfect. If you want the best of both, dump android and get the Apple watch paired with an iphone.
