    Bought this Geek certified open box unit and i must say i am pretty satisfied with this purchase. i have loved the Gear S3 since it was released but the price point was just not justifiable until i saw this at the galleria store. Great buy

    At first I was kind of hesitant about it, because of the price but I needed something so I can have constant contact with my phone without carrying it around. Being that I have small kids at home I never want to miss an important call or text from them.

    I love the upgrades, but I am really disappointed that I lost the camera and video option. As a preschool teacher, this is a great feature to catch special moments. Other than that, I love all the new fitness/health features such as the sleep tracker.

    Excellent watch, great for use with a samsung, although personally I don't have it connected to my phone through bluetooth all day as it spends a lot of my battery in both my phone and watch. I mostly have it connected through wifi.

    I've only had it a few weeks. I'm a newbie with this product! So far seems to be working great. Only down side, some apps aren't compatible with it, like Facebook, Viber, Whats App.... but I can live without having those on my smart watch.

    Great watch. I do wish that it had some more after market app functions. I works great with after market watch bands. I have a silicone one for active wear, and use the leather band that it came with for dates night and such.

    Great watch for someone who is on the go. Sync text messages and emails enabled me to view messages with ease. Bluetooth headphones worked great with the music player, allowed me to run on the treadmill with out having a clunky phone in the my pocket.

    Though I am still learning all of the aspects of this device, I have found it so helpful. One of my favorite things is being able to answer my calls without touching my phone. I also like that there is such a variety of ways to access the apps.

    Nice looking smart watch, poor bezel design

    I like the look of the Gear S3 and the connectivity with the iPhone has gotten better and better, however, the bezel design could be improved. The bezel makes a clicking sound every time you touch it, almost as if was loose. After reading other reviews online, turns out it's a common problem with this watch. Other than that, it works very well.

    I bought this Gear S3 as a present for my husband. He likes the look of the watch, but he especially likes keeping track of his steps and keeping up to date with phone calls/ messages. He wears it every day so I consider this a big hit!

    I have already owned 2 other types of smartwatches and this one, the Samsung Gear S3 is by far the best. It has so many more features than any other watches out there and it works wonderfully. If you are buying a smartwatch then look no further!

    It feels just like a standard watch. I didn't think I would use the watch to talk on buthe having it for quick conversations on the run is incredibly handy. Talk to text for text messages also make it easy to leave your phone in your pocket all day.

    The galaxy watch S3 is my 3rd Samsung watch and i loved it. The only problem I had was when I workout for an example do push-ups it presses the two buttons all the time. But other than that its a durable watch.

    This is my first foray into the smartwatch fray. What can I say but WOW! I am impressed with the health aspects of the watch, and the accuracy of counting steps. I don't use some of the "standard" functions, but the ones I do use have impressed me.

    Only thing is, I forget to charge it sometimes. Other than that I love the fact you don't have keep taking your phone out of your pocket when you are busy or relaxing. One quick look at your wrist and you are done if you want.
