Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far, I love my Samsung Frontier with one caveat.. I don't have a Samsung phone and so some functions are limited. I have a Moto-Z play and I receive text notifications, but cannot respond to them via the watch unless I go to my contacts. I'm hoping that Samsung fixes this in the future. The battery life is superb for a watch of this type; I think I could squeeze three days out of it if necessary. But, Samsung Pay on the watch is awesome, which I miss from switching out of my Samsung s7 edge. So, great watch that won't disappoint, especially if you have a Samsung phone.

Great watch, love it! Being able to play music right on it or check the weather is amazing. I love having notifications and phone calls right there too.

It is a great gift for anyone who is on the go! My fiance wanted a smartwatch & I'm glad I went with Samsung. I love that you can check notifications, set reminders, text or call your favorites, & count your steps, etc.! The battery lasts about 2 days with everything running (Bluetooth, location, music playing). I HIGHLY recommend! Great gift idea as well!

This watch looks and feels great on your wrist. The response when touching the screen is perfect, and the battery life is still good for me even after almost a year of having it. I get at least two full days out of this watch, and that's with the wakeup feature turned on. I love that I'm able to change the band so easily. I wear a different color band on it almost everyday. There are so many different interfaces on the marketplace that you are bound to find something that's perfect for you. The connectivity with my phone (Galaxy Note 9) doesn't fail me at all. In fact, this watch helped me recover my phone in the Art Museum. My phone came out of my pocket in a chair on a lower level of the museum, and I went to the next floor above. Thank God I had my watch on because it vibrates if you get too far away from your phone. I felt it vibrate and instantly checked my pockets. OMG my phone was missing, so I ran back down the stairs to the exact chair I sat in and there it was still sitting in the chair. By far the best watch I have ever purchased. It's also much safer to drive with because you can still have both hands in the steering wheel while taking through your watch. This watch is a lifesaver in more than one way. I highly recommend purchasing one.

I bought this watch as a gift for my husband who has an iPhone. It paired really well and he loves the look of it. Easy to interchange the wrist bands. He is a jogger so it has been good to use as a tracker. It is very stylish and functional.

Purchased the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier 4 months ago. Easily paired with my Note 8 and communicates flawlessly. At work I leave my phone in the computer bag and receive all notifications on the watch. I can read/reply to texts and reject calls right from the watch. The fitness tracking functions on the watch work very well. I didn't think that I would use Samsung Pay but after setting it up and trying it out I find myself using it for most transactions. I would give it 5 stars but the bezel scratches very easily.

I really like this device. It's well built, tough and stylish at the same time. I'm not a big fan of the Tizen app store, but there are some of my usual apps available like MapMyRun. I'd give it five stars if it ran Android Wear 2.0 instead.

I've been through the Zenwatch, Zenwatch 2, and a Fossil Q Founder. The Q founder looked the best, but always seemed laggy, and the microphone was junk. The Zenwatch 2 was amazing, but the charging magnets collect junk until they are unusable. This has been the best so far. Tizen is very responsive, and useful. The heart rate monitor works great, as does the step counter. The only flaw is the heart rate monitor doesn't work during exercise.

I'm fairly happy with this watch. The only thing I don't like is how bulky it is, but it's not that big of a deal. Battery life is good and everything on the watch runs flawlessly. It's so nice being able to get texts or calls if I'm not able to get my phone at the moment. I also love being able to control my media through it. As someone who came from an Apple Watch, I can say that getting this watch was a great idea!

Have been using with S7 edge. Nice for checking notifications. Worked well for phone calls while driving. Wish it would sync with Samsung health real-time. If you start a workout on watch it doesn't show on phone until complete. Would be nice if you could use either device to track workout once it starts. Step tracking and sleep tracking works really well. Altimeter never seems to be correct. Face is easy to see in all light conditions and has a lot of options for customization. Used as a golf GPS and shot tracker with downloaded app and was very accurate.

I'd been thinking about getting a smartwatch for quite a while, and finally pulled the trigger when I found this one at Best Buy. Pairing with my Galaxy S8+ was very simple, and I've not had any connection issues at all. It also connects automatically to the WiFi hotspots "remembered" by my phone, so there's no fussing with logins. The watch's controls are simple and make navigation very easy. The heartrate monitor appears to be pretty acurate, compared to my oximeter. I suspect that the step counter is a bit generous, but it's good enough for comparing one day to another. Battery life isn't too bad; if I start the day at 100% it's usually around 68% at the end of the day. The included wireless charger charges the watch at a rate of a little less than 2 minutes per %. The notifications work well. You can send and reply to text messages, but entering text is very slow and error-prone. Thankfully, voice-to-text works quite well for this. You can also make and receive phone calls. Finally, the price was right. In the past, I've made extensive use of Best Buy's price match policy to get the same price offered by a certain giant on line retailer, but in this case Best Buy had the lower price to atart with.

If you have the Galaxy phone, the best partner. This watch can do everything, no need to have the phone in your hands. For me is the awesome!!!

I am loving this watch. I previously had the Gear S2 and loved it. But this is much better. Bigger screen, better battery, more water resistant. And the most recent update in operating system has been wonderful. I have become maybe too dependent on the watch. To be able to quickly see whatever notification from your phone right on the watch is fantastic. And to be able to quickly reply right back from the watch and to not have to pull out your phone is so nice. I see myself wearing Samsung watches for a long time. Keep up the great work Samsung!

Stylish, good looking, easy to change to other band. Versatile design, can be sporty or professional.

This watch pairs well with my Note 8 phone. I love all of the on screen features of text, photos and animation. The sleep tracking is pretty accurate. I'm a firefighter and it's nice to be able to track my on duty lack of sleep. I had a fitbit before this and it would show me sleeping for 5 hours straight when I was up running calls. The heartrate monitor is about the same as the rest, hit or miss, but more accurate than the fitbit. I wish the battery life was better though. I'm a female and the size of the watch is still fine on a feminine wrist.

This watch is awesome, wireless charging is a nice perk. I tend to turn it off when im not wearing it. This extends the battery life quit a bit.

If you are a samsung phone user this watch is a must. I loved being able to see everything on my watch vs. having to look at my phone all day. I had the frontier and felt that it did what it was supposed to do. Overall I enjoyed it.

Love the watch. I was looking for a smart watch the not only works with Android but also functions with IOS and it works as described. Thanks

It is a great overall product. Has plenty of watch faces to pick from. Works great for Work-Outs for tracking distance &calories burnt, etc.

Bought this for my husband as an anniversary gift. Good sized men's watch. Very functional smartwatch with activity tracker features and apps. Great looking watch that's perfect for everyday wear. Battery lasts about 2.5 to 3 days on average with normal use. The only complaint so far is that my husband doesn't like the feel of the back of the watch when working out because it tends to accumulate sweat/condensation and becomes a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, great watch with a lot of features for the price.
