    The classic has a fantastic look and the screen is crisp and clear. The dial around the bezzel makes it very easy to use. I upgraded from the moto 360 2nd gen. I do miss the wrist gestures that android wear had and google voice. Other than that the gear s3 classic is better in every way.

    I owned the S2 before upgrading to this S3. What a great improvement!. A tad larger but much better battery life which allows the apps to both work better and longer. Lots of apps available besides what comes with it. I use a golf app that provides gps distance on the courses I play.

    My old gear 2 broke and when I heard that Sansung had a new watch coming out, I pre-ordered and waited. I am so glad I did. The galaxy watch looks more feminine and I like the color. I got the 42mm with the pink band. It has a lot of bells and whistles but I am still learning the watch.

    I honestly didn't realize how much I would use this watch until I had it on my wrist. Of course there are some areas of improvement but I mean come on its relatively new technology. Moral of the story is if you own a Samsung phone you need the Gear s3. It is like an extension of my s7 edge right on my wrist.

    I love this watch. Being a girl and not being able to keep my phone in a pocket at all times, it's nice to know if someone is trying to contact you if you are away from your phone or have it in your purse. Love all the features and how simple it is to switch out bands. Amazon has a great selection!

    I bought this for my husband and it looks so good. He can wear it while dressing up or doing a workout. His only complaint is the google person talks even without being spoken to. I’m an iPhone user so I don’t know what the Samsung Siri is called. Other than that it is great.

    Bought the gear s3 on impulse, then didn't think it would be very useful. I am glad I got it, turned out to be very useful. The gear s3 is an extension of my s7 phone. When receiving a text, email or calls, I don't have to go to the next room to get my phone. People are surprised when I tell them I'm talking on my watch. Faces and setting widgets are nice features too. Would be better with more storage and able to pair with tablet too.

    The watch works great! It allows me to check notifications, send messages, answer calls, etc. when I am unable to do it from my phone. The notifications and activity tracker syncs instantly. There are many options for the watch display, allowing for easy customization. Would definitely recommend!

    I bought this watch for myself and LOVE it. At first I thought it may be a little big for a woman (I have a small wrist) but I really like it. I purchased some different bands and love the versality of matching it with outfits. The watch has a lot of functions that are important to me.

    I used to wear a regular watch all the time a couple years ago it broke so I stopped wearing a watch. I got the gear watch as an anniversary gift. I never thought I would need or like a smartwatch but I love this gear I don't know how I ever get along without it now that I have it

    Just got watch. So still early too do a full assessment. But first usage has been very good. It seems to perform as advertised. It is featured loaded which lengthens time to be come completely familiar with the watch. From a cosmetic point of view the watch is appealing. All the features that I had on my list of must have have performed very well. I have given the watch an early use rating of 4 stars.

    I love the look of the watch. The sound is loud when listening to music on it, in a good way. You can answer phone calls and text as well. There are cool apps that you can download and put onto your watch and nice watch faces you can purchase. Overall, fantastic watch.

    Like the look and feel of it. Paired it with my Note 4 using the S Health app. Still learning everything it does. Like being able to get emails and text messages without getting out my phone. Can quickly reply to text messages. Have down loaded several Faces. Still learning things I can do on it.

    I like having smart watches for the functionality but I'm so burnt out on them all looking like digital watches. This one has a classic work professional style to it with the ability to change the face to digital trends or luxury style watch faces. Love it

    This was purchased for my teenage son and he absolutely loves it, he answers on it and I cannot tell he's not on his phone. Plays music quite loud for a watch. The only downside to me is it is HUGE, definitely better suited for a man or someone with a larger wrist.
