Customer Ratings & Reviews

I personally had no interest in the "smart watch" gen. But when the Frontier S3 came out my eye was caught. This is an amazing tool that really minimizes reaching in your pocket every buzz or beep from your phone. The voice command is accurate and truly keeps using the device hands free for calls while driving. I only wish Google was integrated a little more. Battery life is superb as well

Read many of the reviews and thought this would be the perfect watch to pair with my S8. I could not be happier. It does everything I expected and more!

This watch is the peak of what i would ever want in a smart watch. All of the functions that it has is exactly what a smart watch should be. It looks sophisticated, has good connection options and tracks my bike rides and runs fairly well. However the app store is a very huge weak point in this watch. Seems that the only thing samsung has on there are watch faces which is a little depressing considering the teizen OS for watches has been around for over a year. By comparison the apple watch and android wear have literally anything you will ever need, and will be a problem.

This watch is awesome! It's the best one out there, and works exactly how it's supposed to! I like the charging dock, and it's very comfortable to wear.

I put off getting a smartwatch every since they came out. My fiance bought me this for my birthday. I don't know why I didn't get one sooner. People think the crapple watch is good, this blows it away. I love the fitness part of the watch the most, since I run and/or workout on a daily basis. Compared to my Garmin fitness tracker, this is by far leaps and bounds better.

I bought this for my son and it's nice because he never used to answer his text before because he said he didn't see them but now that everything goes straight to the watch he has no excuse. He seems to like it and doesn't have any complaints

Great watch. Battery lasts for days and Samsung Pay works excellent using the Gear!

This watch is great! Was a present for my son and it exceeded his expectations. Looks stylish and has a lot of functions and the band scan be changed.

This watch is great I have the S8+ to go with the watch and what an amazing combination. The watch has battery life that makes my previous iWatch look sad. The true water resistance is another great feature and while this watch uses Tizen I'm not disappointed with the add-ons/apps that I can chose from. I love Apple products but after the S8+ and the S3 I'm not sure I will ever go back.

I heavily debated spending the money for the S3 since I already owned the S2. This watch has proven to be well worth the money. The difference in battery life alone has made a dramatic difference in how I integrate use of the S3 in my daily life. I am very pleased with it and would suggest that anyone with an interest in a very solid smart watch take a very close look at the S3 Frontier.

If you want a smart watch loaded with features that will work with almost any smartphone this is a great option. It has its own alarms, can read your text, emails and notifications. And very easy to adjusts what you see on the watch with its companion app. Some features are better if you have a Samsung phone but it is not necessary for full functionality.

The health features overall are great. probably every kind of measurement you can probably want. If you want a great and advanced health/exercise watch, then this works. Now, if you looking for more advanced features, like Samsung Pay, or a large variety of apps, this is where it gets tricky. -Samsung Pay If you have compatible Samsung phone, then its probably great, but if your like me and don't (i have the essential phone), it was a pain to get it to work. Samsung customer service themselves didn't even know how to help ( week 4 without call back, and they promised they would call me back). You will need to "sideload" the samsung pay app, and hope it works. If you don't know or are a regular user, not advanced, this may be complicated. If you want it for samsung pay, make sure you own a samsung phone or are tech enough to load the samsung pay app separately. App Store - HORRENDOUS !!! Possible the worst app store I've come across. Litered with watch faces from 3rd party developers, and the usuable apps for the watch are few. Account Creation - you must, must, create a samsung account in order to get as much value out of your watch, but big problem, they use a Captcha verification systems which is old, and super poor quality. expect to get frustrated with it not accepting your login credentials. Battery life - Poor. And i say this because it last about 1.5 days, so your watch will actually turn off on its own in the middle of day 2. for such a large watch, you'd expect more battery life, with warning. No warning if battery dies. Also, another dumb thing. If your watch dies, and you go to charge it, it remains off. so if you take it off the charger, and don't manually turn it back on, your basically walking around with a watch that is off. small detail but if your step counting, you will lose out on correct count. Overall - Not for the novice, and takes a lot of time to figure out screens and how to use/move them around. Samsung Pay is great, but a pain to load if your a non-Samsung phone user. Horrible battery life. Lastly, i have updated my phone to Android 9 Pie, some users report issues, i didn't have any, except that Samsung Pay disappeared, so i had to re-sideload it.

It's the best smartwatch on the market today. The user interface is very intuitive, easy to use and the screen looks really good. The battery time is excellent, about 2 days with always on display and 3 days when it's off. One minor disadvantage is the number of apps available for this smartwatch. But it has pretty much all the necessary apps that you possibly need for a smartwatch.

Coming from Apple watch I think this watch is a much better watch. The dial makes things quicker to get to and the multiple bottoms are a plus as well.

I am iPhone user, but hate the apple watch design, this one looks great, and it supports iPhone very well.

I love the Gear S3 Frontier watch. It has all of the features I loved in my Gear 2 Neo plus Samsung Pay. I use that more than I thought I would. It's so easy to use and is accepted almost everywhere. Even stores that don't advertise accepting electronic payments often do. It's a little on the larger side and is a little weighty, but I'll live with that for all of the great features.

Purchased this as a gift and my wife LOVES IT!! She went from the Apple Watch to it and this has a better screen and more features she will use more.

I've always used Samsung and this smartwatch is great. Only one I've found that my wife can use Pandora at the gym without having her phone with her.

I love, love, love this watch!! Battery life is 2 solid days, "fun" apps are very few but this watch does a good job with everything else! I've used the speaker phone for 30 minutes before I told my buddy he was on a speaker phone and he said the sound was awesome..I've whacked this watch so hard I was afraid I damaged it and not even a mark on the watch. (I don't need "fun" the apps.)

while this watch is on my wrist i can quickly create responses without having to pull my whole phone out which if you're a student may annoy your professor. Smooth, comfy, and tough. Add the fact that you can make phone calls on it and you can save so much phone battery. As for battery (For my medium - low usage) I get 3 - 5 days before needing to charge it again
