    The s3 frontier is the best smartwatch I have owned. It pairs perfectly with my Samsung 9+ . I have owned many brands of smart watches and this one is far more advanced then the rest

    This is a great looking watch. Great battery life and easy to use. I'm disappointed in the number of apps that won't work with the watch. Had a Moto 360 before this and it seemed like most apps on my phone were supported. I like to run and I haven't found a good companion app that will work with the watch.

    This watch was a great buy and I regret nothing!!! It takes a few hours of tinkering with it to figure it out but once you get it you will be calling and texting in no time. The only thing I wish it had was more accessible to Google apps like maps and music, there are other apps that help with that though.

    Best Smartwatch Yet .... EXCEPT.....

    First, let me start by saying this was not my first smartwatch. I have had every Gear, Apple Watch, Pebble, Fitbit, and LG watch on my wrist and one point or another. This by FAR is the best LOOKING. The rubber is high quality, the bezel is strong and makes the watch stand out. The OS is fairly easy for beginners. If You are looking for a watch to use as an extension of your phone, this would be a good choice. I love it, and don't think anything will compare to dream watch, an Omega (but this one comes close). Up side: Size OS Bezel Price (Compared to Nixons) Battery Life 2 - 4 days depending Down sides: OS - Takes longer to get to some items. OS - There are a LOT of faces, none that offer Time, Date, Temp, Calendar, Stock, and Battery like I prefer on my Apple Watch. Somewhat slow to turn on when twisting wrist. If you have the money, this is by far one the the best watches for style AND function. I prefer the Apple Watch for what it does for me, but hate the look. The Frontier balances the ease of use and look. Definitely a gem.

    This is by far the best smart watch on the market currently. The battery easily lasts a full 12 hour work day and then some. It also looks great, I get complimented all of the time on it.

    So far this watch has performed better then I initially thought. Battery life is pretty nice, I have gotten two and a half days before needing to charge. I am also liking the bezel dial control.

    This is an excellent watch. The bezel dial feature makes this smart watch unique and easy to use. Many watch faces to choose from to give the watch a different look al the time. Worth the money.

    Amazing watch for daily use, all kind of notification needed, text, email, calendar, and kind of workouts , as simple walk or many more options. the only complain is that map directions are not linked to the watch without use of external app ( not a real good one available)

    I closely reviewed and compared the new Apple watch and the new Samsung Gear S3 and my decision was made an easy one by Samsung! I highly recommend to anyone who has a Samsung or Android phone.

    I had looked at several smart watches and decided on the gear 3 because of the features. It keeps up with me and my health. Not to mention the hundreds of different faces that are available.

    I use it with IOS so the experience isn’t as good as if you paired it with an android phone. But over all it does what I need it to do. Batter lasts about 2 full days for me.

    Great Watch but S Voice

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The watch overall is an amazing product and I recommend this if you have a Samsung phone that's compatible because that way you can also use Samsung pay on the device as well. The calling is clear as long as you have good service and it's nice to text on it too with voice but S Voice isn't always the best. I find myself having to speak so clearly and make sure there's nothing audible in the background as well and make sure you have like about the most perfect English with no lisp and/or slang. It's meh, but overall I love the watch. I love the body a lot more than the Apple watch because this actually has the look of a watch, not a square like Apple does.

    Solid watch, good variety with faces. Works well, battery life can be extended by shutting all apps off that you don't use everyday. Would like to see more free gear for the watch. I am an engineer, so I was worried about its durability at first, but now its not an issue of concern.
