    Bought this watch for my wife and she loves it. This is her first watch and it is easy to set up. She love that you can set it up the way you want it from the start. Works fast no issues with it to this point. Makes me want to get one for myself after seeing all the things it can do.

    When I presented my Moto360 2nd GEN smartwatch for another watchband I was told that I had to replace the entire watch but that Best Buy no longer sells the Moto Smartwatch. After trying out both Samsung Gear S3 watches I settled for the Frontier. I am very satisfied with this watch!

    I had many issues with this when ordering online before Christmas but eventually it worked out and I finally received it. My husband loves it and wears it everyday. He can get text messages and calls without having to pull his phone out every time. It's easy to charge and easy to use.

    I love my Samsung Gear S3 smartwatch. This paired with the Galaxy S5 phone allows me to make purchases using Samsung Pay. Samsung Pay is not available on the Galaxy S5, but the Gear S3 allows me to use the service. I also love the health nudges and tracking. It also has good speakerphone quality. This unit must be paired with a phone to use it... The AT&T model can be used standalone (I'm sure for a small service fee from AT&T). You can also read and reply to text messages. Text entry is via a T9 style/alphabetic/numeric or draw your letters. Battery life has been anywhere from 1.5 days to 4 days (depending on usage)

    I decided to upgrade from my Samsung gear fit to this and man I'm glad I did. This watch has so many cool features, from tracking you fitness automatically to using it to make and receive phone calls. I would highly recommend the S3 Frontier to anyone looking to get a smart watch.

    I have been wearing the watch for a few days now. It is very fun with a lot of features. I like the fact that I don't have to now carry my phone around with me at home or in the office, and can still be connected via blue tooth to pick up messages, emails and calls. So far the battery life is great and the watch functions meet the advertisement. The only small downside is the larger than expected watch size.

    The Samsung Frontier is very durable. I had the Gear 2 and although it held up well, it was buggy towards EOL. I wore it daily for 2 years. I like the bigger watch face. Customizable and convenient. Would highly recommend to a health care professional, sales person, or tech fan.

    this is much more comfortable to wear than the gear S2, the battery lasts longer, but the bluetooth connectivity range is much shorter. It is nice to be able to read emails and texts without having to take out my phone, as I don't always hear my phone ring or feel it vibrate.

    One of the best smartwatches I have ever owned, fantastic battery life that gives me 3 day with normal use and with the "Always on display" set to on I get 2 full days. Great way to answer calls with I have my phone on my wireless charger and the luxurious faces are insane...

    I love this watch, it is shaped like a real watch and the functions are easy to learn/use. Now to get back a samsung phone again. The battery life is very impressive on it, I like how I am able to read and send texts so easily without having to pull my phone out of my pocket

    Overall I have enjoyed the Samsung frontier. Its a great way to stay out of trouble @ work while still having access to your phone. Great battery life, multi-functionality is a plus. Downside is the rubber straps, makes it look like a kids. I can make and receive calls.

    Having had the Gear Neo for several years, I decided to upgrade to the new S3. This watch is not only stylish, but can pretty much do whatever you want it to with seemingly unlimited widgets & apps to customize with. Can't imagine not having it now. Best accessory ever!

    Purchased the BT Frontier watch during the Black Friday sale for $199.99. So happy I took advantage of a good deal. I love this watch! Set up was super easy through the Gear app and it's very intuitive to use. Battery life is really good. Only have to charge every few days. Having the ability to quickly stay connected by checking your wrist is amazing. Even though you have to keep your phone within range, it still gives you the ability to roam and not miss a beat. Calls, messaging, emails and so much more. Wireless mobility made even better. Def recommend the Gear watch.

    This is possibly the most versatile watch I have ever owned. With all the watch faces available it's like having a new warch every day. I was hesitant about the size as I don't like larger watches but after wearing it for a day or two I don't notice the difference.

    I bought the first gear fit watch and liked it but didn't love it. This Gear S3 frontier is a huge upgrade from that and has everything I wanted it to do. If u want a great watch I would recommend this watch to anyone. Battery life has been better than I expected also.

    My husband does a lot of physical traini g and is very selective with 'sport' watches he could wear. He says he does not want an expensive smart watch that he might accidentally break. I bought this as a gift and he loves it. Its been two weeks and still looks great!

    This thing can do most everything you need it to, track health goals, set reminders, surf, email, text, talk and the gear store has tons of apps. I have had the watch for 3 weeks and it still feels new. I've been watching a lot of YouTube for hints and tips for it. The only issue I'm having right now is when responding to a text and I hit reply . I have to hit it 3 or 4 times for it to recognize it was a selection. Not a big deal though. I usually change the watch face daily to switch things up or to match if I'm dressing up for work. Battery life on these things is insanely long!!

    Wife got this for me for my birthday. Easy to pair up with my Note8. Simple to use. I especially like the many different watch faces. Also handy is the hourly reminder to get up and stretch. This is a much better looking watch than her Apple watch. I'm happy with it.

    Having been an Apple fan for years I recently made the jump to Samsung & I was missing my Apple Watch so I got this. MAN WAS I PLEASANTLY SURPRISED!!! This not only LOOKS better than the Apple Watch but it is also much faster & has a bunch more options than the A.W.
