[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i love all the features especially the health features. i like that i can do an ecg anytime. i traded in a gear 3 for it and i'm not sorry. it retains the revolving bezel for easy access to many features. so far, i am excited about this extremely smart watch!
this watch for all its bells and whistles is no better than the gear s3. sleep tracking is just fair and the other options like ecg, sp02, and v02 max are pretty much gimmicks that are inaccurate at best, some are not even available yet. battery life is pitiful and much worse than the s3. sadly i traded in my gear s3 on this and though i like the watch it just doesn't make sense to upgrade to the same performance that i already had!! if you have an s3 then don't trade, keep that old clunker and save the $$. advice to samsung, learn from fitbit!!
previous gear s3 frontier owner; both bluetooth-only. battery life on the watch 3 is improved; mostly the same features. what really, really upsets me is substandard glass. i had my frontier for almost 3 years. it took a beating in the gym. it traveled the world and was exposed to seriously austere conditions. and it only ended up with a couple of nicks on the bezel. this new watch 3? didn't make it 2 weeks before i scratched the glass face just wearing it around the house. haven't even worked out with it yet! look it up on-line: they cheaped out on the glass on the watch 3.
bottom line, if you have a gear s3, don’t “upgrade”. if you take the plunge: do yourself a favor and get a screen protector as well.
I received a watch 3 as a Christmas gift. Previously I had a Versa 2 synced to my galaxy Note 20 and it worked fairly well. The galaxy watch 3 has been a disappointment so far. I expect a couple months of getting use to a product, but this one is a real PITA! Once you load your apps and widgets, it still doesn't work as well as the fb V2. I just don't like it but it looks nice.
this is most stylish smartwatch i have ever owned. the features are top notch and the i absolutely love the rotating bezel!!! so easy to flip through your apps and notifications. a must buy for anyone looking for a quality smartwatch.
i came from a galaxy s3 that i was happy with so i figured i would take a chance with the trade in program. i am very happy that i did. i love to customize the face and the options are extensive and i greatly appreciate the additional health monitoring features. it was not cheap but i am very pleased with the purchase!!!!
