    The Samsung - Gear S3 Frontier is an awesome product all around. I started with the first Gear from Samsung and after a few years without it I decided to invest in another smart watch. The gentleman in that area of the store showed me a few different choices and this one blew the rest away. I think the only thing you can't do is take a picture from the watch, but you really don't need that feature. If you have a job that requires you to stay off the phone while on duty, or forces you to be discreet then this is definitely a product that you should look into getting!!

    Been wearing it for almost two weeks now and still learning all the cool features. The GPS is a big plus for running and cycling. Battery life is so much better than the S2.

    So I gave this product 4 stars because I had had to return one because the speaker stopped working on the phone, which means no alarm and no ability to take calls on the phone. The other problem I see is that rather than take the approach of giving the end user the best battery life settings out of the box with the ability to turn on extra functions Samsung has chosen to give you all of the bells and whistles out of the box with the ability to go and turn them all off. So it can be time-consuming to go and set all of these settings again when you have to change the unit. Perhaps one day they will figure out to put all of the configurations on the app you need on your phone so that when you get a new watch you can just adopt the same settings as you had previously, but I guess that would also be admitting that you may one day need a replacement watch.

    I got the S3 on sale and not necessarily to fill a need. I could live just fine without it, but it definitely adds convenience. I love being able to check messages, calls, media posts without having to get my phone out. Plenty of features, from fitness to media to navigation, and sufficient apps and watch faces out there for it. No drawbacks from what I can tell so far, although I do wish the straps would be a little less rubbery. The practicality of it does not justify the expense, in my opinion, so I consider it a gadget rather than an essential piece of every-day gear. I love it though!

    I needed a new smart watch since I had my last one for over two years. Battery life is great and so is the face of the watch. Easy to set up, I love it.

    I recently broke my (2nd, replacement) Microsoft Band and began researching alternatives. One thing I did not like about the Band was the futuristic style of it. I was more inclined to buy a watch that looks like a watch this go-round. I could not be happier with the Gear S3 thus far. It has all of the features I had and more, and additionally I personally think it looks a lot better as well. One detractor is the stock band, I found it thick and cumbersome. The great thing is that it is easily replaceable, I got a NATO-style light-weight band that wears great and was very inexpensive to purchase online.

    Bought this for my son and really likes it. Not as many apps as the Android Wear watches but it has all he needs. Thinking about getting one for myself as well.

    I love how it works in tandem with the S7 Edge. I love how it tracks your movement and heartbeats as well. Also the speaker phone is loud, and people can hear you as well.
