I've had my S3 Classic since 2016 and outside getting a new battery for it a couple years ago for less than $10 on Amazon this thing just keeps on kicking and doing everything I need a smartwatch to do. Looks good and still acceptably fast and functional. Definitely the oldest piece of tech I have that gets used daily!

It has worked with original battery to this day from 2016 to t 2024 and its still in daily use. Only thing that isnt working just as new is the microphone. I have used it while swimming in open waters and most likely there is something stuck in mic that muffles the sound. This thing has gone some rugged use in training weekly for all most 8 years now. Straps have been needed a change once a year because of heavy use but the watch is solid build.

Bot my Samsung Gear S3 Frontier LTE on 8 Dec 2016 with 2 free straps.
Watch and strap still work fine, Tizen updated itself to 4.0.0.7 with Knox.
Amazing product... wish Samsung could update the S3 with a bigger battery

My S3 is nearing it's 6th year on my wrist.
I gotta admit, this is an amazing watch for what it is.
With minimal usage I can still get 3 days of battery life out of it, with the original battery.
This watch has been through years of abuse, and hunderds of hours spent underwater in lake Balaton even!
I only recently gave it a nice clean under the bezel + gave it new springs and bearing balls for the click.
Best purchase. Go-to companion for a walk with doggo using BT earbuds + downloaded Spotify songs.

Had mine brand new 2013 as a gift. Didn't use it for more than 9 years because the battery drains in less than 24 hours. After so many years I finally bought a battery to replace the defected one. Been using it every since without issues.

Yo this Gear S3 Frontier is the best smartwatch ever! The best Samsung ever made too! It needs a continuous line improvement! Give us the Gear S4 Frontier and Classic, same EXACT look! Just more storage more ram and better battery!

I've been using this watch for 4 and a half years now, It has been working great! Getting me all the info I need, allows me to control my music, It has taken quite a few hits as I work in a warehouse but it still works perfectly fine.
The battery DID however start to get really weak after 2 years, and by the 3rd year, it would barely last a workday.
I decided to open it up, do a battery swap, put some rtv in to seal it up, and It works just like new! I really don't have a need to upgrade to a new watch, as long as Samsung still supports the software on it!
