    This smartwatch will forever hold a spot in smartwatch innovation history as this watch is still pretty great by 2020 standards for smart watches. The form factor and styling of this watch is one of the best ever produced. I have gotten many compliments on it as it has everything you could want. The functionality of a smartwatch combined with a classic design gives it A extremely unique characteristic that is simply lacking in other smartwatches even today. 10/10

    The Best Smartwatch 2016

    The bar has been raised quite high by Samsung with its Gear S3 offering for 2016. The Classic version is exactly that, "Classic". However, do not be fooled by the title "Classic" when comparing this watch to its sibling, the "Frontier" this Classic watch has near similar functionality and is rugged in its own right. Add to it that it is fit for the boardroom and you have a winner. This is my favorite Smartwatch (I've had many) and it easily replaces my Moto 360 Gen 2. I've had it for a month or so now and it easily impresses me each time I interface with it. Well worth the cost.

    I got this for my husband as an anniversary gift. He loved it! He wears it everyday to work and it makes him connected to all the messages sent to him! Email, calls, you name it! It works like a mini phone and he gets lots of compliments of it.

    So glad I bought the Samsung Gear S3. Besides the great fitness tracking features, it keeps me from having to lug my phone around all the time.

    I am a girl with a small wrist and the watch was too big for me. It was uncomfortable to wear it. It's perfect for men but not for women. I returned the watch and bought a gear 2 instead

    I use the Samsung Gear 3 to keep track of my progress as I work out, walking running and cycling. I also use the feature that allows me to return text messages without opening my phone. Very handy watch and tool

    I bought this as a Christmas gift for my husband. He loves watches and to know that it's an elegant, classic style especially for business attire makes the watch even cooler with different faces to choose from. It's like having a new watch all the time and matches to whatever clothing you are wearing. I love it because when I need to send him a message and he can't reach the phone, it directly sends it to his watch and when I call him, he can answer and talk directly from his watch immediately. this watch is by far better than the apple in looks and style.

    At first I loved it... but then I realized it was just a really expensive watch, well at least the bluetooth one. This watch down NOT have a stand alone GPS or even accompanying GPS that'll work with my phone (like Spotify). I domt get group text messages and apps are barely available. I do like that I can use Samsung Pay, the step counter and the physical properties of the watch but nothing too much beyond that. I'm returning it and hopefully the s4 will be a better stand alone version w/ GPS... we'll see..
