    Had this watch for about 18 months and worked great, really liked it. Unfortunately it started having issues while charging after 15 months. It will shutdown and not charge any more. Luckily had bought the geek squad protection and got a refund. Will look for one of the newer versions.

    The Samsung S3 is a great addition, to my existing Samsung phone. I used to own a Fitbit and conveniently replaced it after buying this watch. Definitely recommend this watch and it looks great too.

    I originally bought this for myself, but ended up with another popular smart watch that worked better for a woman's wrist. I ended up giving it to my husband for Father's Day and he really is happy with it.

    Got it for good price during the anniversary sale (and before the release of the new Galaxy Watch). But there aren't whole lot of upgrades compared to this Gear S3 which is already pretty descent to use!

    This is an awesome watch. I am sure I have not used it to its fullest potential. I love that it syncs right to my phone so I don't have to have the phone on me to answer a call or text.

    I bought this smartwatch as a gift for my wife. She uses it to track her steps, answer her phone. She wears it to bed to keep track of her hours that she sleeps. I'll probably be getting one for myself when the price drops.

    One of the many things I love about this watch is the fact that it's completely customizable. I mainly stuck with fitness watches, but with the Gear, I get everything directly from my phone. Apps, phone calls everything.

    Great for quick views of incoming emails and text, although the speech to text and voice search could use some tweaking. Also, the larger size of the watch face takes some getting used to, but overall a nice product.

    The Gear S3 assists me in achieving my fitness goals, dieting goals, and is adaptable to my lifestyle. It has many great free apps and with the selection of bands can be worn for business, casual and sports activities.

    A gift for my hubbie and he loves it. I'm a little jealous. Wish they made the face smaller for a more feminine wrist. Love that it has microphone and can talk on the phone. Costly but you get your $$ worth.

    Love this watch and it's a great edition to having a Samsung phone. The one with cellular data is better than the one without cause you can leave your phone when working out and still get service.

    This watch does everything. I can watch YouTube, listen to my music, text and even make calls on it. The step tracker and heart rate monitor are both awesome as well. It does come with a small and a large wrist band.

    I love the face size of this watch, and that you can interchange the watch bands with other brands from the least expensive to very highly end. YouTube has some great videos on all the great things that it can do.

    I was looking for a smart watch that could measure multiple workout functions, as well as have the diversity of a smart phone. This watch has it all. I am pleased with every aspect this watch has to offer.
