Best smartwatch in the world~!!
||Posted .The Samsung Gear S3 Classic is the second smartwatch I've owned - the first was the Samsung Gear S2 3G - and it is a great improvement over its predecessor. For me, it has been totally worth the upgrade. First of all, in my opinion, it looks better and functions better due to its superior design - the bigger size leads to a bigger screen that can fit in more content, the bezel has grooves on its outer perimeter that makes it easier to rotate the bezel with a single finger, and the watch now comes with standard support for any 22mm watchbands. On my Gear S2 3G, I had to purchase separate watchband adapters imported from Europe to add the same functionality which cost me around $45 due to the high shipping cost. The software and UI of the Gear S3 is about 95% identical to that of a Gear S2 3G. The Gear S3 has an improved S Health, adds a voice Reminder function which the Gear S2 still doesn't have (unbelievable), has true Always on Display (AOD), and it is, of course, faster and smoother due to its upgraded specs. In addition to allowing you to choose your own ringtone, the Gear S3 adds the ability to choose your notification sound as well which is appreciated. In terms of apps, I'm quite satisfied with what is on offer. For my daily usage, I just need good notification relay support from my phone to my watch, a reminder app, a stopwatch, a timer, a calculator, and a calendar. Everything else for me is just extra, useful or not. After pairing my watch to my Galaxy S7 Edge through the Gear Manager app and signing in to my Samsung Account, all of my previously purchased apps and watchfaces were available for download. This made the transition easy and seamless. There was only one app - Custom Ringtone - that wasn't available for me on the Gear S3. I'm hoping for that app to be updated to support the Gear S3 soon. Besides for the aesthetics, the two BIGGEST reasons why I upgraded to the new Gear S3 were for the addition of Samsung Pay MST (last year's Gear S2 only supported NFC Samsung Pay) and for its bigger battery life. I used the Gear S3 to pay for my groceries at a Smart and Final supermarket the other day and it worked flawlessly. Love it!! And the battery life has been superb. With brightness set to 7, AOD turned on, and with Wifi, GPS, Bluetooth all turned on, I'll finish my typical 19-hour weekday with about 65 to 70% battery left. So for my usage, this watch will last 2 days before needing a charge. My old Gear S2 3G, with the same usage habits, would finish with ~35% left at the end of the day (the Gear S2 3G doesn't support true AOD). In the end, I'm supremely happy and satisfied with the Gear S3 and I applaud Samsung for making meaningful improvements. I highly recommend it to everyone!

I'm a woman with dainty wrists, and I love it!
||Posted .I've read review after review on this watch, and most of them seem to say the same thing: it's just too big for women. I'm here to tell you that this is not necessarily the case. While I am relatively tall at 5 ft. 9 in., my wrists are quite small (the circumference of my left wrist comes in at exactly 5 3/4 inches). While the watch does look oversized and chunky on me, I actually really like it--when comparing it to the various analog watches in my collection, the S3 is only a tad bigger. And the big face makes the watch more functional, as it's easier to read and type on, especially when I'm in a hurry. I purchased some "girly" watch bands to style the watch a bit more to my taste, since the black leather band that comes in the box, although very high quality, looked a bit too dark and harsh on me. If you, like me, are a woman who enjoys wearing big watches already, then I recommend trying on the Gear S3. As for the actual watch features--I can't say enough good things. I bought this as a companion to my Samsung Galaxy Note 8, and the ability to read and reply to texts alone is so, so handy. I use the reminders and alarm apps daily, and I also love the fitness and sleep tracking features, which seem to be on par with those of Fitbit. Fully-featured Samsung Pay is also fantastic to have on hand (or wrist). There are a zillion watch faces to choose from, so I'm looking forward to changing those up to match the seasons/my outfit/my mood. I'm still figuring out all the other bells and whistles on the watch, but so far, so great!

Fantastic Smartwatch with a few flaws
||Posted .Coming from two previous Android Wear watches, I was a bit skeptical of the Gear S3 Frontier. I wasn't sure how much I'd enjoy Tizen but I really liked the premium look of the watch and additional features like Samsung Pay - especially the MST transactions. So I took the plunge and couldn't be to much happier. The screen itself is absolutely stunning. Colors pop and blacks are dark. With the always-on mode, I usually get to about 40% or so by the time I go to bed at night which is perfectly fine for me. The always-on mode is really cool and makes it seem far more like a watch than a "smartwatch" typically does. It honestly just looks like a watch to most people. The size could be killer for some but it fits into the "large" watch trend going on right now so it doesn't really stand out in terms of size. The rotating bezel is really cool and is certainly helpful when navigating on the smaller screen of a watch. The killer app here, though, is the addition of Samsung Pay and MST payments. I was able to get it paired with my Pixel XL and tried out Samsung Pay with great results. It feels pretty odd at first to try waving your watch near a payment terminal, but when it works, it's like magic. Not to mention you don't have to fumble around with a phone or wallet since it's always on your wrist. It's simply a press of a button then a tap on the screen and you're ready to pay via NFC or MST. Security-wise, if you remove the watch, you'll be prompted for a pin you chose during setup before a payment can be made. You can also make up to 5 transactions without the phone entirely which is pretty nice as well. The only thing I don't really care for is the S-Voice feature. It "works" for the most part but isn't as fluid as Google's voice search / Assistant. Tizen also has a smaller selection of apps to choose from that actually run on the watch, but I found myself mostly just using all of my prior watches for notifications. Anything else that was more than a swipe or two on the watch would just be easier to do on the phone. Most notifications work pretty well on the watch and you pretty much get what you would see if you checked the notification on the phone. They look great on the watch and don't look shoehorned in if it's a non-Samsung notification. Overall, the watch is really well done. It certainly looks the part and really hits a hole in one with Samsung Pay support with non-Samsung devices. If you're looking for a really sharp, though rather large, looking watch with a few really cool smart features, look no further.

Good Smart Watch-Has Some Fitness Issues
||Posted .It's pretty good as a smart watch, but fitness wise the altimeter is finicky and doesn't track the first couple floors of stairs and heart rate monitor isn't as accurate as my Fitbit. But since this is a smart watch and not specifically sold as a fitness watch I can't complain too much. PROS: I like the messaging, the speaker on it is pretty good, and the screens are pretty. "Do Not Disturb" is nice at night because the screen won't come on when you move. I like that you can use ant watch band that is size 22 I think it is, so it’s easy to change out the bands to match outfits etc. I also like the charging dock. CONS: I can go all the way from my basement to our second floor and not get any stair credit (it's 2 flights.) If I walk stairs at work it I don't get credit for at least 1-2 flights each time. As for the heart rate monitor, it takes time to “catch up” to what my heart rate is, and it can be 20 or more off. I have a polar heart rate monitor that you wear around your chest. Obviously wearing chest monitors is always going to be most accurate, but the variance between it and the Samsung is substantial. My Fitbit didn’t have so much variance. I have tattoos on my wrist/forearms so that can effect it, but it wasn’t as much of an issue with my Fitbit. Overall, I like it but I am glad I did not pay full price for this watch. I had a $200 refund from Target protection plan for a Fitbit I'd had for 17 months that stopped working and couldn't be repaired. I would be much more upset about some of the Gears issues had I paid "full price" Updates have fixed some other issues since I've had it. at

What Apple watch? This thing rules!
||Posted .Do you have an iPhone? Wonderful, the S3 works with that too. But, it's home is with Android phones. And boy does this pack a punch. Built solid, waterproof (just not steam proof), beautiful in it's construction, and full of features that are ever evolving. Aside from the step counter (pedometer) I use everything else almost equally as much. And the find my phone feature has saved me countless number of times. You must have this watch if you are a tech person or if you just want something BETTER than a normal watch. This is the Rolex of smartwatches

A watch for every occasion....
||Posted .This is definitely not a cheap watch, but when buying this smartphone with a wrist band you get to change the face when ever you want so it goes with what ever your wearing or doing... Love the fact that I can answer a call while working and never have to pull my phone out of my pocket. Now reading text or sending them isn't as easy as using your phone but hey it does work and it has it's place in the cool factor of this watch, plus you get all your notifications. One last thing, you DON'T have to have a Samsung phone for it to work!

Handy, Fun & Stylish
Posted .I have been using the S3 for a few days now and really like it. Is it a must in your life or do a bunch of things your phone can't? Not really. But is it handy, fun and stylish? Very much so. If you have the money (not really cheap) and want a watch that does a ton of things, go for it. It is a cool “toy” that is very functional. I ended up getting the Classic style one and have both a sport style band and a dressier metal link band so it serves dual function. The bands are easy to switch too. I know my way around electronic stuff but am not a super geek and don't use every function of any device. So this is a casual user review. I am not going into detail because there are tons of videos on YouTube that teach you all the features. Some people think the watch is big but as a triathlete I am used to wearing GPS watches that are even bigger so there was no adjustment to the size for me. See the pictures of it next to my Suunto Ambit 2. The buttons work well and the rotating bezel is pure genius. The screen is great and responsive. The battery life is good and it is easy to charge. Working through the menus is easy via the bezel, buttons or touch screen. I like watches and have 8 in the drawer next to me so imagine my delight at being able to change the faces. With the traditional round design (vs the Apple Watch) it can look like any watch, can have any color and match your mood or clothes. Samsung Pay: This function works, is fun and easy to use. It will start a conversation too when you use it at the register. Setting it up was pretty easy and it has worked at all the places I have tried so far. It won't work on gas pumps. Phone: Mine is the classic and is not a phone itself. It links to my Samsung S7 via bluetooth. I answered a couple calls on it today. They could not tell I was talking on my watch. I just laid my arm on the desk and talked. Rotate the bezel clockwise to answer, counter clockwise to decline. It will also send pre-made messages which you can customize. Exercise: It does the typical things like count steps, vertical steps, track water, pulse and other fitness watch stuff but I am more interested in training features. I took it on a 5 mile run today. I also wore my Suunto with the heart rate strap. This is a one time comparison and I will be interested to check it some more. The total distance was off a bit and I noticed one glitch on the map. Yes, it records where you go on a run, bike etc. Both watches agreed on the pace, cadence and average heart rate. Impressive. It was off on ascent. f your into power meters and stuff, it won't do that. So it can work for exercise but I will still be using the Sunto as my go to for exercising. Other uses: I have sent emails, checked messages, read news, checked weather and sent texts on it with no problems. Conclusion. I gave you that in the first paragraph so you wouldn't have to read all of this. If you think I am shilling for Samsung, guess again. I tested their Icon X Ear Buds and posted reviews titled “Not Ready for Prime time”. This watch is MUCH better: I like it.

The perfect smartwatch
||Posted .I absolutely love this watch! I've been waiting for this generation of smartwatches that meet my needs. Pros - Samsung Pay on your wrist. This is to me the most useful since it works practically anywhere I tried it. -2 days battery life with "always on display" brightness at 5 out of 10. - great looks, love the round style. It actually looks like a normal watch ( yes it's a little big but you get used to it) - Microphone and speaker on the watch to take phone calls - while I can't really speak for this one because I use a Samsung S6, this watch is also compatible with iPhones. Cons - not a ton of apps available. Note: yes I changed the band for a metallic one since it's a standard 22mm. Not that the leather band was bad at all.

Q: QuestionAny ladies own this watch? I really like what I see about it but my husb & saleslady said it's a lil too big for my wrist. Tempted to purchsse it anyway but want to know if any ladies with a small wrist own this & is comfortable or not.
Asked by YB.
- A:Answer I do and I love it! I have always loved bigger watches though. I have had many compliments on it and plan to get multiple watch bands so I can dress it up. It comes with a smaller band that will probably fit you much better than the one on display. My wrist is a little over 5 inches in diameter. DO IT! :)
