They find it easy to use and appreciate features like Samsung Pay, fitness tracking, and the ability to make and receive phone calls.

    Great smart watch. Just turn your wrist and the watch face lights up to a world of information at your finger tips. The only minor thing I would maybe change is the watchband. The leather band is extremely thick and hard. The watch is awesome, even with the hard leather band!

    Best purchase ever! All the alerts on the watch. Great face change choices. It actually looks like a nice watch and not some old 80s square. I've used the payment 100s of times. Works very well. Easy to navigate through apps. Step and workout tracker work well.

    This is my second smart watch (Pebble). And this watch is spectacular. The screen is sharp and there are no connection issues between my phone. The watch band is hideous and clunky. i ordered a 22mm metal clasp band from Amazon. Still loving the watch as I would expect for $300.

    Out of all the smartwatches on the market, this one was easily the best looking one. The classic looks very much like a regular watch instead of those awkward looking smartwatches. I've received many compliments by friends, family, and strangers alike. Highly recommended.

    One of the best smart watches

    No doubt one of the best out there. Hardware, specs, battery life is all amazing- as every reviews say. Now the only issue is app support. Not much apps. The app store is not that great either. Wish they had a robust app system like Apple- or at least they tried that route.

    I really enjoy the features of this smart watch. It has great features and apps to help you manage many of my daily activities either related to fitness, business, personal, etc. I specially enjoy changing the bands and watch faces. Still have a lot to explore.

    If you are looking a smartwatch that looks like a watch this is the one for you. Great features and ease of use made this a great buy. Was hesitant about purchasing it but after having it for a few days I feel lost when I am not wearing it.

    Originally got this watch to help me not miss important business calls, but it has become so much more in my life. Love the Bluetooth music playing feature when I'm working out and enjoy being able to track MyHealth data. Awesome device!

    I have a Samsung Note 8 and this is my first smartwatch. I went with the Gear 3 because it is so user friendly with the Note. I learn more about the capabilities everyday. I swapped out the band with a slightly more feminine style and it was easy to do!

    This watch is very convenient to see whose calling, messages, weather, etc when driving or busy shopping, biking or other activities. I have the Gear 2, but wanted to add this one when I purchased the Google phone. I recommend this watch if you are a busy person.

    I am a nurse so this watch is extremely handy! When I get a notification and am too busy to look at my phone, it is nice to know what type of notification I am receiving. It looks nice and has so many options! I could not imagine being without it!
