To be honest I've used all the best smartwatches and keep coming back to the gear 3... Battery life is the best I've had from a full smartwatch.... The design is awesome... Build quality great.... The bezel is the best way of operating the watch
The app selection is poor but the watch does everything anyways... Spotify... Notifications.... Fitness... Calls... Reminders... Etc etc.... What else do you need?
The only thing that could be improved is voice control and sat nav... Who wants to be doing smartphone stuff on a tiny screen with limited input when you have a phone in your pocket
You need good battery life and the basics covered in an actual design that looks like a watch on your wrist and Samsung are doing the best all round job so far
when nobody cares - you make your own leak. These wont bring success ...

Also there's no strict non-sense enforcing by Samsung like Google do for the Play Services, which are critical for a lot of your droid's functionalities, including, but not limited to, GPS?
Plazmex8, 24 Jul 2018Still Tizen - Still Useless... R.I.P Samsung watchAnd why exactly is useless? I think the only useless thing is your comment!!
BiyoBiyo JunJun, 24 Jul 2018"Not to mention it's more secure than Google because they don't spy or whatever on you" may... moreHopefully not. Samsung has invested a lot in it, since it doesn't trust Google itself. It's playing it safe, and is not the only manufacturer to have a plan B

R.I.P Samsung watchI am using S3, it still the best smartwatch I ever wear.
I don't think we need a lot of app in smartwatch.

There's almost no useful app in the Samsung store. no Gboard or any other useful keyboard, not a real voice assistant, no google maps or a useful Maps, no browser, no watch faces (all free watch faces are ugly AF and paid are overpriced and ugly AF). other Problems with Tizen: connection problems, Phone's battery draining, no compatibility to Most Phones if you don't have or don't want to install all Samsung apps on your phone and give them all permissions what they want.
It looks ugly maybe its a different watch series and Gear S series is still alive I hope it is cause this looks ugly compared to Gear S3 Frontier
I am only going to buy if the overall thickness is less than Gear S2 / S3.

maybe because tizen not that famous like google , and tizen only for some samsung user , right ? hope that os not same happen like bada
Anonymous, 24 Jul 2018It has to be wear os. Else its bad. Trust me. I only trust in God, because in God we trust
BiyoBiyo JunJun, 24 Jul 2018whats good about tizen ? p/s : im just asking because never used it , plz dont hurt more ...Well, it's pretty much made to work with Samsung devices, Samsung smart devices, etc, like an ecosystem. Not to mention it's more secure than Google because they don't spy or whatever on you
Only Watch OS / Wear OS is good. Because of the deep integration, and search features.
The rest gives a feeling of being tethered by a third party. "Eye candy" yes.. but hollow within.
Gear watch was seen as the top tier pick by users of samsung, AND why it still lacks behind Apple Watch in terms of popularity? BEcause its running Tizen Instead of Wear oS!
Android P + Wear OS is the future. Stop looking at Tizen.. if you want that, just GET a normal WATCH or fitbit instead.
The only thing I care about is how thick this watch will be; to which the answer will be: too thick.
Anonymous, 24 Jul 2018It has to be wear os. Else its bad. Trust me. I had zenwatch 3 but with previous os version. Anyway it was so bad that I'll never buy another watch with google os for watches, unless google will completely rebuild it.

On what premise? Care to share your bad experiences to others?
If you have a trauma to a particular system, never impose your trauma and hatred for that system to others. Your statement's equivalent to "it has to be a tuna salad instead of caesar salad, else is bad". It's just plain illogical and foolish.
