Great Product!

I've had the Galaxy S3 Frontier for over a month and feel that it has been put through a variety of scenarios. There have been minor quirks, but on the whole I am quite impressed with the product and functionality that it provided.

excellent watch, just one catch.

Overall I love this watch. Perfect size for me and just the right weight. Love the band that comes with it but love that you can use any watch band for this size. Easy to use and decent battery life if you don't enable "always on" display.
Health tracking and standalone functions are awesome! (I do not have the cellphone version.) I love answering the phone from my wrist or even loading music and using bluetooth headphones for a run or bike ride. I haven't used on water, and that's only an emergency 'feature' for me.
It's very sturdy. I work in maintenance and so far (just over a month) I haven't had any scratches, or cracks or anything damaging this device. I did purchase a screen protector (Glass) just in case of an accident. The only thing I see happening is perhaps the rotating bezel will get loose or worn out over time.
The only "catch" is if you don't have a samsung phone you don't get 100% of the features. This isn't a deal breaker for me (since I own it) but for some it might. I think that they should enable all features regardless of the smartphone you own. ie, using s-voice. will not work at all. Needless to say i'll prob get the new note when it's released later this year.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Built-in speakers

I've had it for about 2 weeks now only have to charge it 3 time with normal use. Loving the call forwarding function. In the two weeks time it's been knocked around wet dirty and all round the farm and still looks like it came out of the box.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Built-in speakers, battery life

Best smart watch
on March 21, 2017
Posted by: Jra1994
from Wilmington, Ca
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this watch for a few months now and I really love everything about this watch except for the lack of supported apps, the battery life is great, the design is great, it looks amazing.
Cons: s voice gets what I'm saying wrong alot and sometimes doesn't even register what I'm saying.
The lack of apps

Love the Altimeter
on March 21, 2017
Posted by: WalkingHigh
from Bellingham, Washington
Expertise:Intermediate
I owned a previous version of Samsung's smart watch, and this new S3 frontier is a giant leap forward. In particular I love the altimeter for when I'm hiking. The other game changers are the inductive charging stand and the bezel which can be turned to display applications. Also, with the old smart watch, I was forever getting lost in the sub-menus accessed solely by swiping my finger up, down, right, or left. Finally, I appreciate being able to set the watch face to be constantly on. I don't mind charging the watch every night along with my cell phone. Extending battery life by not having the watch constantly on doesn't begin to make up for the annoyance of not being able to tell the time instantly when glancing at the watch. The S3 is a smart watch that is also smart looking, and I look forward to trying out the wide variety of watch faces that are available.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight

Great watch but not enough applications

The Galaxy Gear S3 s a wonderful watch but the only downside is not enough applications for the watch. Hopefully Samsung will work with developers to bring more useful apps. The fitness app that i used a lot need to be improve to better track user daily fitness activities. Can't wait for the next major software update.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Built-in speakers, good quality
Cons: software
