Amazing upgrade to my already good watch

I originally had the Gear Fit and in its own right, the watch was exactly what I wanted of it, a comparable model to the Fitbit but with even more features and what seemed to be even better reliability. After about 2 years I decided it was time to upgrade to something a lot better.
The Gear S3 is an awesome upgrade to my original Gear Fit. It has an amazing design while not looking or feeling too large on me. Honestly this watch will be with me unless any unfortunate events occur or I drain the battery to the point of replacement.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight, Built-in speakers
Cons: bluetooth connection does seem to be spotty
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Gear watch yet (and this is my 4th Gear Watch)!!

This is my fourth Samsung Gear watch. I've owned the OG Gear (with the cool camera on the watch band), the Gear S (3g) and the Gear S2 (3g). I've also owned several other smart watches.
What I like about this watch is:
Looks: Looks like a stylish regular watch with 'always on face' option on. Received compliments on my watch and people didn't know it was a smartwatch (first of my smartwatches for this to happen).
Size: Size is very comfortable. Worried it would feel too big, but it doesn't seem big to me at all (feels much smaller than Gear S, for example).
Rugged. Besides looking rugged, I like the waterproof and shockproof nature of the watch along with more durable glass. My first few smart watches were vulnerable to getting killed by water when I'm outdoors. No more with this watch.
Samsung Pay: This watch uses Samsung Pay to its fullest ... you can pay with this watch at places that don't take Apple Pay or Android Pay. If they just have a mag stripe reader this will work. It even works better than my S7 Edge phone, which is pretty cool. Plus paying with your watch really freaks some folks out. :-)
Bezel: Bezel feels better than the S2 (S2 is a solid watch too).
Battery life. With watch face set to 'always on' I get two full days between charges (with me using it frequently for email, text, payment and calls but gps off and wifi off). Biggest peeve for most watches is charging every night. Not with this phone.
Try it out, you will like it.

Best smartwatch out there
on February 23, 2017

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love samsung!!!!
I am coming from the gear s2 and didnt think that a smart watch can get any better that that, but you guys proved me wrong. I love how light the watch feels on your arm. The frontier also gives the watch a fun sporty look. I love that it tracks my steps and how many floors I walk up. The speaker on the watch is so cool and makes me feel like inspector gadget when I answer calls on it. Another thing i love is being able to text back and forth right on my watch. The only thing I do not like is that it is slightly manly for a womans watch.

Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight, Built-in speakers, tacks steps flawlessly, tracks activity
Cons: Too big, looks kinda manly on a womens hand

I like everything apart battery life and the bloody standalone icon (Samsung remove it!!)

I like watches a lot and this gear S3 allows me to change watch face whenever I want but be careful because if connected to iPhone instead android your options are highly limited on galaxy apps!!
Need to be improved battery life and the most annoying thing for me (to a point I could return the watch just for this reason), the bloody standalone icon that appears on display when and if the watch is not connected via Bluetooth to the phone. Samsung you MUST remove that, or give the option not to show! Because for people like me that want to use it as a watch also when not carrying the phone I want to see my watches display without that bloody annoying icon! It spoils and ruins the look of the watch!
Other than this it's brilliant and love it
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color
Cons: battery life should be better!!, samsung you must remove the standalone icon!!, limited faces when gear s3 connected to iphone!
I would recommend this to a friend!
