You get what you pay for and this is high quality.I bought this for my fiance with some hesitation because I don't know much about smartwatches for Androids. After reading reviews I went for the plunge. He's either gonna love it or hate it. Happy to say we are STILL engaged to be married and of course, we LOVE the watch. Its classic, very masculine looking and he swears its comfortable. The features are beyond my expectations. He has discovered all the bells and whistles which you would expect from similar technology, but its cherry on top is the bezel. It literally rotates to navigate through software. It's high tech/high quality engineering feature reliable software with unique system controls. I highly recommend this purchase after all is said and done.I hope ...

I don't buy refurbished that often as when I do I'll sometimes receive products that are filthy, clearly scratched, and may not be in the best condition/working order. This purchase however was 110% worth the buy! Not only did I get an insane deal on the Galaxy Watch 3 (whose MSRP is $100s of dollars more), but the item is practically brand new. I observed not a single scuff nor scratch, and aside from the original box missing, all the required items were present and brand new. I recommend this seller to anyone and this is a great watch if you're on the fence about a Smartwatch. Only thing I don't love is the battery life but make a couple adjustments to your settings and it will last you a day or slightly more. You may have to lower brightness, turn on power ...

You may have to lower brightness, turn on power saving, etc but it will last with some tweaks. Usually, I use my watch mostly to control my music, read/type texts, make/receive calls, track my steps, occasionally search the internet, and check time of course. If you're bored, you can even play a few games on it. My favorites are probably Pin Rotary and Tetris-style games. I'm just waiting now for someone to make a Pac-man game that utilizes the rotating bezel. Also in the picture I attached, I have a protective case over my watch face; essentially the watch is verycustomizable and within a few days I will be doing a strap change and new watch face cover change.

It does almost everything it promises. The 3-press SOS is nice but too easy to trigger. Bear in mind that getting the eSim activated is incredibly difficult, most phone companies don't support it yet, and even if they do it's a costly add on, so until eSims are more common I would recommend the normal version. The battery life is 1-2 days, 1 day if you have all the features enabled, 2 days (3 at best) if you turn off almost everything but Bluetooth and the watch face. Speakers are surprisingly powerful for a tiny watch.I used this watch because I decided to take up swimming, and it was supposed to be safe to use in water, which is nice because its difficult to bring your phone with you when you swim.

But it still broke, and was a bit of a pain to try and get fixed - however they did not make me pay for it, which was very good. I would recommend a screen protector because dogs/children/clumsiness will most definitely scratch the screen at some point during the watch's lifetime. Overall, I somewhat regret this purchase - I can't use the eSim, the battery is too frusting to constantly charge, and I'm too scared to swim with it anymore. But it does have a nice oxygen tracker that can be very reassuring (or not) during a Covid infection.

After wearing the Gear S3 Frontier watch for several years and loving it, I decided to upgrade to the Galaxy Watch 3. Happy to say it keeps what was great about the S3 Frontier and makes it better.One of the best things about the watch is the rotating bezel. It's by far THE best interface on any smartwatch. It's intuitive, easy, and precise - and unique to Samsung's smartwatches.The screen looks great and is plenty legible in outdoor sunlight. The touch screen is also very responsive. Another big plus is the availability of thousands of custom watch faces via 3rd party apps, many of them free.Physical activity tracking works very well. I run regularly and the watch's gps tracking is accurate. The watch does a good job of detecting activities too. Sleep ...

I run regularly and the watch's gps tracking is accurate. The watch does a good job of detecting activities too. Sleep tracking is accurate and informative, and the addition of features like SpO2 tracking and ECG reading are appreciated.Messaging and notifications are extremely full-featured and well-developed. This is one of the areas that distinguishes this watch from some lesser smart watched. You can read messages and reply using the screen or voice. You can also, of course, take calls directly through the watch without handling your phone.The watch looks great - similar to the S3 Frontier but a bit less "outdoors" and a little classier thanks to the silver body. It's also really well-made and durable. My S3 Frontier is 4 1/2 years old and still going strong, and I expect the same longevity from the Galaxy Watch 3.The battery life is also improved from the S3 Frontier a bit. I had to charge that one nightly, but I can consistently get 2 full days from the Galaxy Watch 3 without issue. There are other smartwatches that go longer, but those don't have the rich feature set that this one does.Overall, another great smart watch experience. As long as Samsung keeps that rotating bezel, they'll be tops for me. But there's a lot more to like about this one.
I've been wearing this watch for a few years now, and I'm as happy with it today as the day I got it. Functionality has improved over updates since initial release; steadily providing more ease of use, intuitive navigation & practical features. Samsung continues strengthening their watch platform. This was actually a gift. I preferred my cheap analog leather watch, something sturdy to handle rough wear, something I won't cry over breaking; or need to have insurance on. I thought a smart watch was redundant while carrying a smartphone. Then I started using this watch, and Samsung Health... adding music to the mega integrated storage. Running, walking, beach days, park with the kids, fair season & festivals- I couldn't imagine doing these now without the convenience ...

I walk to photograph as well- leaving my phone behind, just carrying my camera- is nice.
The watch itself is just as described. It's in new looking condition, not a scratch on that surface. It charges well with the charger that was provided (does NOT come with the ORIGINAL, Samsung charger), I haven't actually used it yet, but it seems to work well, paired easily with my phone (Note 20 Ultra). I am overall happy with my purchase and would highly recommend it. The watch's condition is amazing, the price for it is amazing, however, I'm a little disappointed that it did not come with the original band since the pictures displayed kind of make it seem like it does. I understand it doesn't say it comes with the original band, but it nowhere says that it doesn't either. I would've liked to have known that, and I would've liked to have seen pictures of the ...

I have a new Samsung S21 Ultra 5G phone, Buds Pro, and this 45mm Watch3. My S21 has Spectrum service installed and Spectrum doesn't yet support Samsung watches. So, used a Verizon "standalone watch plan". This gave me unlimited service on my Galaxy Watch3. Every provided App feature works perfectly and I only need to charge the watch once a day, although it would probably go two days before being depleted as I mostly just use it for my health monitoring - BP, ECG, Stress, ETC. I also use the silicone gray Galaxy Watch3 band and like it very well - but I also have a Galaxy Watch3 premium leather band. So far, I have only used the silicone band this summer and it never irritates my skin. Changing the bands is also a quick easy snap using the Samsung Galaxy 22mm bands ...

So far, I have only used the silicone band this summer and it never irritates my skin. Changing the bands is also a quick easy snap using the Samsung Galaxy 22mm bands - whenever a change is wanted.For the initial Verizon $35 activation fee and the roughly $14 a month unlimited Verizon Galaxy Watch plan, I get excellent LTE 4G phone and data service as well as having a second phone number to use when the watch and the phone aren't within pairing distance (30-35 feet) with Bluetooth.When I receive a call on my S21 Ultra, and the phone isn't nearby, it texts the watch to notify me of that call. The LTE Watch3 is easy to hear and use despite I am a bit hard of hearing at 70. It also has Bixby. So, I can just tell Bixby to make calls when I don't want to use the Watch3 dial screens. I also use my Buds Pro with the watch to hear music from the 1960's (my era) while working in my yard. Since I don't need the LTE watch to be paired to the S21 ultra phone, I often leave the phone at home while making short trips around town.Note: You may need to have a Verizon store install their Galaxy Watch standalone plan, as their scan code watch E-SIM setup has to be set using a Verizon phone SIM. I managed to use an old un-activated Verizon SIM, temporarily inserted, in my unlocked S21 Ultra - to start my Galaxy Watch3 Verizon service. Then, I simply called Verizon for activation of the new number for the watch. Verizon has instructions to follow on their website - but they don't include the part about needing to use a Verizon phone SIM.One other thing of note during setup is the LTE Galaxy Watch3 only supports Wireless B, G, and N connections. After finishing the installation you can turn off Wireless to extend the battery charge time on the watch. I leave the Bluetooth on.A lot of people might only be interested in using the Galaxy LTE Watch3 by itself.
I've had this watch nearly a year now. My biggest gripe and reason for 2 stars is it doesn't work with spotify on standalone. The process to do it requires downloading songs and then putting in offline mode, however despite download completing, it often only plays a part of the song, it doesn't download the full Playlist, and if it gets to a song that isn't downloaded it just stalls and you have to restart which isn't much fun in the middle of a run. Standalone music and running/exercise must be the top two reasons for getting one, no?The run app on phone doesn't allow for manual laps or not easily anyway, however I'm not faulting it too much there as Strava doesn't allow that either. At least it does integrate with strava if that is important to you.The battery ... MoreI've had this watch nearly a year now.

At least it does integrate with strava if that is important to you.The battery life is not good. It lasts a day and half more or less depending on use so you really need to charge every night.The auto detect of exercise starts way too late to be meaningful and doesn't detect automatically when you're done.They updated to add receiving whatsapp messages which is great, it does tell time, GPS and heart rate seem to work reasonably well and there is a cool feature to use your phones camera which I haven't actually used once.Samsung is probably thinking spotify integration is not their problem, but it 100% is while it is the #1 music streaming app.Samsung, you can do better.
I seldom write reviews for products, but the issues with this watch defeat the whole purpose for presumably many of the people that are interested in purchasing this watch. While using cellular data away from the phone during a workout and playing music, the watch will overheat. It will automatically be put in airplane mode, turning off your wireless communications, and effectively turning your almost $500 watch into a barely readable dumb watch.Had I known this issue before purchasing, I would have opted for a more precise fitness tracking watch from Garmin since LTE, music, and fitness tracking cannot be used simultaneously on the Galaxy Watch 3 anyways...I also have to add, trying to use this watch similar to the Apple Watches will make you want to pull your ...

Text message replies are not intuitive whatsoever. Lagging while navigating options and Bixby voice recognition absolutely butchering what you have to say are very common to the point I got in the habit of using my phone primarily again.This is all nit picking, I get it, but Samsung markets this watch side by side to the Apple Watch. And I thought of my Apple Watch as a great companion to my phone that made life easier. This watch has those features, but they are just so bad. Unusable at times.
Let me say this is a very nice watch and has lots of functions. Will be great for most just not for my use. I had a Zen watch 3 and all of the smart home and apps I used worked flawless. My wife got us these Galaxy watches to go with our Galaxy phones. These are very nice looking and wear great, very stylish and lots of functions. However a couple of my apps that allow me to see my smart camera notifications ( with pictures) do not work for these. My old watch never had issues. I have tried contacting samsung and they have no help to give on a fix. I fired up the old Zen watch and again all my stuff works great. All my notifications come through very fast and with pictures of my home security cameras on the Zen watch. I still use the new galaxy watch even though no ...

Again it is a great watch just not for what my uses are. Most lukely going to get another Zen watch or use my old one if this one gets damaged or quits. For most people it will be ex ellent just not me.
