    This watch is better then I expected. I use mine alot to monitor my steps. I love the watch face and have kept using the original one that was already set up on it when I bought it but am looking at all the other available ones and am impressed with the selection. It syncs perfectly with my samsung s8 phone. I bought it on sale and got $100 best buy card so I feel like I got a good deal on it.

    I've only been using it for a couple weeks and I like it so far. But I do have 2 complaints... 1. The band, it's rubber and it irritates my wrist. I've already ordered a leather band for it, so hopefully that'll work better. 2. The delay after pressing something on the watch. It seems to take a bit to catch up, not sure why, but it can be frustrating. It almost seems to freeze sometimes (long delay). If it weren't for the delay I would've given it 5 stars. The band isn't a big deal and can be fixed rather easily and cheaply; it's the delay after pressing something that bothers me the most.

    After debating and reading different reviews on different products for over 2 months, I finally pulled the trigger on this Samsung S3 Frontier. Right out of the box, you can feel the quality of this watch. Samsung did not hold back on the materials. Not to mention all the apps, different watch faces, and integration with your phone. If you're sitting on the fence like I was...buy it! You'll love it.

    Took me several days to decide between LG4 Watch Sport or Gear S3. Very happy I chose the Gear S4. Pluses are looks, weight, changeable bands, battery longevity, fast charge, love the ease in locating and retrieving apps, selection of watch faces. Others decry the fact that it does not have more apps and I also was concerned but discovered that the essential apps were available. I do wish that I could use google maps.

    Tried it on in the store and although I have small wrists it doesn't "overhang". The large face and rotating dial make it easy to read and operate. I did buy a thinner watch band because I wasn't able to button the cuffs on most of my shirts with the rubber included band. It was smart of Samsung to include both large and small wrist bands however, and I may switch back for the spring & summer short sleeve weather. The tabbed spring loaded pins make it exceptionally easy to change the band. 5 stars if the upcoming software improves automatic heartbeat detection, it currently fails when you are moving about.

    I am a Samsung user and have loved my Gear 3 Frontier. From time to time Samsung does updates to software and the battery doesnt last as long, but it does everything as advertised. I have been trying to decide to upgrade to the new Galaxy watch after 2 years of using the Frontier, but havent decided if its worth paying for the new watch because of how well the Frontier works and looks

    I am a notorious geek. Sometimes the temptation to get too far ahead with my tech is a risk, but Samsung was an early leader with wearable technology and has done a great job of staying, rationally, ahead of most others. They deliver leading edge technology without bleeding edge risk. This device has all the fundamental features I need and a world of experienced developers delivering apps to enhance it. Enjoy!
