Espionage movies eat your heart out

It honestly feels like I'm a 00 agent walking around seeing everything on my wrist. Talking to it and taking full phone calls on my wrist is something I only imagined as fiction. One of the coolest gadgets I've personally owned. Bit pricey, considering it's still a watch at basically the same price as a decent smart phone.
Pros: Bright display, Built-in speakers
Cons: pricey
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is the Smartwatch to beat
on January 9, 2017
Posted by: SG2017
The Gear S3 is currently the best Smartwatch on the market and is the one to buy. I say that as I have owned various watches and bands in the past and Android Wear 2 has been officially announced for release soon.
The Gear S3 is vastly superior to even the S2 which is still a current product. Despite the complaints about the size of the S3 being too large I can tell you that it is very comfortable to wear all day and can take on water easily although I prefer not to submerge it. The dial based interface is amazing to use and the buttons are big and easy to find and have a non slip like coating on them.
One of my main issues with any wearable is battery life. Most wearable's get mediocre battery life, barely getting through a day. The S3 on Bluetooth can get through about three days with regular use which is outstanding. With LTE engaged, plan on charging it daily. Since I enjoy tracking my sleep I have been delighted by how well the S3 automatically tracks my sleep patterns after I setup the app on my Smartphone. Most Smartwatches do not even offer this as a feature.
One great feature the S3 has is Samsung Pay. Samsung's payment system is so much better than the alternatives and I was glad to hear that it is built into the S3 and works with any Android phone. The S3 is loaded with sensors including a barometer and altitude sensor. The altitude seems to jump all over the place and can't lock on if I and 96 feet or 280 feet above sea level and often jumps all over the place. I wouldn't expect it to be very accurate but it is a nice touch.

Overall ,this is a great watch I I can highly recommend it to anyone looking for a watch that can do it all including be a standalone phone for when you don't have one handy. It never seems to lose Bluetooth with my phone and is a joy to use daily. Like I said, this is the one to beat right now.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Built-in speakers, comfortable, battery life, samsung pay, buttons and interface, sleep tracking
Cons: altitude option gimmicky, speaker volume
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great watch. I like the performance however I wish it had navigation app other than Samsung. I am already using Google Maps and like the interaction with Google+ and lose this when I use the Samsung navigation app.
Pros: Bright display, Durable
