Fix for Samsung Gear S3 battery drain issue begins rolling out

Samsung has started pushing out a new update to its Gear S3 smartwatch. Weighing in at around 21MB, it's a small update, and currently, only units in Canada are getting it. Change-log reveals the update improves battery usage time.

To quickly refresh, post the Tizen 3.0 update - which started rolling out last month - Gear S3 users started complaining about poor battery life. So it's good to see Samsung rolling out a fix within a few weeks.

No information on when other markets will get this update.
