    Best Smart Watch on the Market

    This smart watch offers everything you need in a connected smart watch. It gives you the features of a Fitbit type but also gives you the connection to your phone such as making and receiving calls from the watch, sending and receiving text messages, receiving notifications, sending and receiving emails and so much more.

    Can't bash it for not being strictly for fitness!

    Great watch, full featured, but it is not what I am looking for. I returned it for the Garmin Fenix 5S. I wanted something more suited and accurate for training. This Fenix 5S is full featured like the Samsung...it might not take calls on the watch itself, but honestly, who really takes calls on their freakin watch?!!

    This is the first smart watch for my husband and he says he feels like James Bond! It's a very nice watch and easily paired up with his Galaxy 8. You can make and answer calls from the watch. Changing the faces makes it nice to change with outfit, mood, etc.. Looks like an actual watch, I would recommend it.

    This was my first Smartwatch and it is absolutely amazing! The talk-to-text feature is one of the best qualities of this watch. You can store turns of Music on the watch without having the phone present and it operates similar to and iPad. If you're thinking about getting a smartwatch this is definitely the watch for you.

    Best watch for any Samsung Phone

    Go figure, the proprietary software works flawlessly with Samsung galaxy phones. This is a bigger watch that is more noticeable on smaller wrists, however as a tall and broad shouldered guy this watch looks fantastic on me. The fact that you can download thousands of different watch faces makes this one of the best

    I bought an open-box item, as it was such a good deal. It was in excellent condition, and I wouldn't have guessed that it had every been opened. The watch itself works very well, and had a lot of great features. There are some things that I miss from Android Wear, but overall, this is still a great watch.

    This is definitely a great Smartwatch. The screen is crisp and detailed. The touch screen is very responsive. The band is comfortable. Very easy to connect to my phone. Love that it has a wireless charging base. Very convenient and the battery is great. It was everything I expected from Samsung.

    My husband absolutely loves his watch. It's very versatile in functionality with his note 8 and he loves the sleep recording function. It has a lot of upgrades that the s2 didn't, such as speaker and the ability to talk on the phone and play music right on the device with no need for a Bluetooth headset.

    I did a lot of research on smart watches and settled on the Samsung S3 Frontier vs the Garmin Fenix 5. Well much to my surprise the watch is just what I was looking for and has things im not using. We'll see how durability goes in the long run ,and I added a screen protector for extra protection.

    The different faces that the watch can have is awesome. The watch itself is really easy to use and looks like an actual watch instead of a smart watch. It is professional enough to wear in a workplace setting. I really am pleased with my purchase and would suggest it to anyone who is in the market for a new watch.

    I love this watch! It works great with my iPhone, looks so much better than the Apple Watch and has thousands of Watch faces available to download for free! The Samsung Health app works better than the apple health app and the watch collects a lot more data. It even reads barometric pressure and altitude!

    The watch was very user friendly. It connected to my phone with ease and the features to access my phones apps with the twist of the dial on the watch was cool. I like my original samsung gear watch in comparison to this watch solely bc the original has the camera on the band of the watch.

    This watch is absolutely amazing. The ability to watch videos, listen to music, and internal GPS for fitness, make this the best watch money can buy. It holds a charge for days and the additional apps are great. The best part is it actually looks like an everyday watch, not some fitbit

    I bought this Samsung watch for my husband and I am happy to say that it is still holding up well. He loves it and wears it all the time. The watch goes with everything and of course keeps time well. I would definitely recommend this watch, you won't be disappointed.

    Watch has great features, but bulky. Not ideal for wearing with long sleeve dress shirts. Great casual look.
