Customers are impressed with the Gear S3 Classic Smartwatch's long battery life, stylish design, and compatibility with Samsung phones. They find it easy to use and appreciate features like Samsung Pay, fitness tracking, and the ability to make and receive phone calls. Some customers, however, feel that the watch is bulky and has a limited selection of apps. There were also a few complaints about the size of the band and connectivity issues.

    Bought this as a open box item for myself so I didn’t have to keep pulling my phone out everytime it went off and I LOVE this watch!!!! It will be 2yrs in September that I’ve had it and I purchased the 2yr Geek Squad warranty and never had to use it yet! Basically check out the open box section at Bestbuy because you will get a great discount for a wonderful item!

    One of the best design smart watch. I like it more than the Apple Watch series 2 I return last year.

    I researched whether to purchase a fitbit or gear for weeks. I like that the gear 3 didn't look like a smart watch used for fitness. I purchased a different band to make it appear more of a "normal" watch that a fitness watch. Many apps and different faces to choose from. I also enjoy the access of reading and answering texts and the ability to answer phone calls. Easy to sync to my cell phone. Very happy to have purchased the Gear 3.

    Love that my watch can be customized and sincs to my phone. I don't have to pull out my phone to check my calendar or what emails I have. Other features are useful, too.

    The Classic version gives you the functionality of a smart watch, but doesn't look like one.

    This has been one of the best thing I have purchased in a long time. I started at 700 steps a day. and because the watch would tell me to get up. I changed my life style. I am walking anywhere from 12000 to 20000 steps a day. by showing me how bad I was, got me off my but. This is a great tool to get you off your rear and back in the game. take it from this 56 year old man, you want to feel good again, get this watch and go.

    I got this watch to replace a Fossil Gen3 smartwatch that died after only 4 months of use. This watch is the same price, but runs circles around the fossil. With voice recognition, GPS, the ability to make and answer calls, the rotating ring and more, it has so many options that Fossil doesn't offer. This is my 3rd smartwatch. I started with a Moto 360 then the Fossil. This is far superior in every way.

    It has almost everything I want. Using the bezel to navigate is really nice, and helps reduce the smudges. Swiping is sensitive and snappy. The glass is awesome. I have brushed and bumped my watch against a lot of tables and walls and the glass and body of the watch are still in great condition. The mic hears me well and the speaker is pretty powerful for a watch. I was leary of Tizen, but it has grown on me. I also like the gear app. It is well formatted and easy to navigate. I would like to see more apps from the play store to work with Samsung, but I am satisfied with what is available.
