This is my first fauray into the smartwatch territory. I have wanted one for a while, but couldn't really afford one. Best Buy & AT&T gave me an amazing deal since I was getting a new Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge on the NEXT plan. So, I basically got it half off. And I paid for it with a gift card I got for trading in a REALLY old phone I never used! But back to the review...this watch has SO many features that I'm still discovering them a month later! It is durable, sporty (Gear s3 Frontier), and fun to use. I have it set up to use with or without the phone. So if I want, I can listen to Spotify playlists with bluetooth ear buds or take calls and get email or text messages at the gym and LEAVE MY PHONE AT HOME!!! Overall, I love it and would highly recommend it.

Got this for my husband in LTE. It’s a pretty practical gift, battery life lasted a billion times longer than my Apple Watch, and it has a realistic watch interface

The phone microphone is weak. The watch is heavy. I wad assured by Best Buy that adding the phone feature to my AT&T plan was a flat $10 monthly charge. I was charged nearly $40 monthly. I cancelled the service and returned the watch but was not able to get a refund from AT&T of charges. The Best Buy store sales person was also an AT&T representative. I replaced the Frontier with another Samsung Gear watch that only alerts me that my phone is ringing. I am very happy with it. I can use a headset to make calls with it using Bluetooth but do not really need it enough to do it.

Band was very plastic and would only work if you had an att account to add it to. Could not get a plan for just the watch. Returned it and ordered the S3 classic.

This watch does everything I need in a watch. I can track my exercising, get weather forecasts, and many other things. I can even make a call without my phone.

I used an I phone 6+. I had trouble keeping the Bluetooth connected. Returned the watch no questions asked & purchased the one with built in cell phone. Kept Bluetooth connection better. Phone is a bit more of a novelty & cost $10/ month+tax($5) on ATT bill. Love the look & swappable faces. Don't feel as apple branded, but do have less Apple functions. Won't go back to Apple Watch. Bought a traditional black metal band off of Amazon to match. Lotsa positive feedback. I think the Bluetooth problem was just that one watch (non cell) had issues...

Use as a phone

The cellular version has its own line and phone number, so you can use it as a phone, without having it connected to your other phones. I got it for my son instead of a phone, because I know he will lose it if its not connected to his body. You have to use it on speaker phone unless you have it connected to a wireless headset. It plays music through the speaker. You can text (no pictures) and make calls.

I got this watch for my husband for his birthday. It's a very nice watch, but we had to exchange the first one because it was over heating when he was talking to me over the bluetooth through the watch. The new one seems to be ok, but for some reason it's now draining his phone battery, note 3. If there's any updates I really hope Samsung fixes this issue. Other than that it's a really nice watch.
