I used this with a Huawei Phone for four years and only now did I upgrade. And no, I didn't upgrade the watch, I upgraded To a Samsung Phone and got some New features. The watch is still great and I hope To get 4 More years out of it

    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!

      Really disappointed!!
      I have been using this watch for 4 years. So far it has been perfect, flawless, beautiful and fully functional. I replaced the bands with ceramic and it has a killer look as well, plus comfort. Nothing to complain, nothing to compare with other models in the market.

      After 4 years I still don't have any single excuse to upgrade/ downgrade.

      Not happy, usually gadgets aren't built that good now a days. Looks like like I have to stick to this great watch for a while.

                The gps in this watch is horrible. Can't lock the gps although it was outside on a open space area. Waited for hours , it won't detect and locked the satellite.

                        Been using this watch for almost 3 years now and I couldn’t be more happier. Never had a problem with mine whatsoever. Haven’t even had to change the battery either. Still as snappy as the day i bought it. I recommend this watch to anyone interested in getting into the nitty gritty smart watch game.

                            The display has bright vertical strips of about 3 mm. Still work well but display is simply not presentable. Only lasted for 15 months.

                                Hi,
                                I got a problem with Galaxy Gear S3 Frontier - a continuous use of the heart monitor burned a square hole in my skin 2-3 mm deep (1mm x 2mm x 3mm) - it was a slow roast so no bleeding. I have noticed it cose of a pinching pain on the wrist. It cured itself after 2 weeks with a little scar remained (just to scare Samsung !!!).

                                I wrote Samsung a message but nobody answered. Since I have covered the sensors (lenses) with a permanent ink pen, switch off the heart app, otherwise happy with the watch.

                                I have just bought Samsung Watch (46) as a Xmass20 gift to myself (sale !) as it has an imbedded eSIM - but the very first thing was to switch off a heart app and to cover bottom lenses of the watch with permanent ink and a little round sticker to prevent any burns/pain.

                                There are many similar 'Galaxy' complaints on the net !!!
                                I did not searched other manufacturers/brands for a similar problem - but I thing it is common as the sensing laser technology is the same/similar.
                                Perhaps not everybody is reacting in such a sensitive way - although few is enough.

                                The puzzling question is why Samsung with all its huge research budget did not do anything to fix the problem they are aware off for long time by now.

                                Is there anyone to experience the same with an Apple Watch ?????

                                    Great watch, all praise, I haven't changed its battery yet, and it can last up to 2 days of use, I don't immerse it in water.
