Zenwatch 3 user reported in.  biggrin.gif

Have been using it for 1 week. Here provide some hands on feedback.

Pros
1. The screen is looks vivid. Definitely meet my expectation. Plenty of watch face apps to play around.
2. Very classs look, the gold bezel bring out the luxury and class look.
3. Very good speaker when play music. Clear and loud.
3. Mic on watch was good so far when use inside car, but speaker phone is loud but a bit not too clear (will monitor further)
4. all notification from phone able to sync with ZW3 seamlessly. Whatapps, fb, exchange,gmail, gemfive,lazada and etc.
5. Vibration of notification is adequate, however is acceptable level.
6. Wrist gesture work well during driving, to have a glance on notification such as whatapps/email. You could navigate between home screen, view notification, back and forth, scroll through wrist gesture.

Cons:
1. Very soft leather and thin in my opinion. Not sure if this leather really as indicate as good leather. Would like to know where to get gunmetal metal strap.
2. Battery life is just okay. around 1 day and half. However quick charge has compromise this.
3. Gesture to turn on the screen, sometimes it doesn't show up if i doesn't twist my wrist enough.
4. I couldnt found a way to reply whatapps message via keyboard, only through google voice recognition.
5. On google voice in android wear, i dunno why some word recognition success rate is so weak, maybe 50% can recogize. During driving, when wrong voice recognize into text, it will auto send after 3-4 second.
Using my Note 4, most of the words able to recognize.
6. Using google maps on watch, it will eventually need to have GPS turn on on Phone, it will trigger google maps on phone, from open apps to navigate, take about 30 sec.

I am buying from Lazada hmm.gif
Should be arriving in the next couple of days, will report in on the quality...

For peeps looking for "branded" and high quality watchface (via Samsung's Gear Watch Designer), check out this "face maker" https://plus.google.com/u/1/104704492398430829346

I supposed the screen protector for the watch would be smaller than the actual display itself causing the additional effect of a border. For sure does not look good.
Again, I'm sure nobody uses screen protector on their normal watches even if it's not sapphire glass.

Most screen protector in the market are a bit small & leaving a gap. Try look at this. I've installed mine & no gap at all. Got an extra 3 units for sale for those who are interested.

No brand, from the picture displayed looks like OEM, but can only feedback on the actual look/quality once the item arrives to my doorstep bruce.gif

By "face maker" I mean watchface creator. The files are uploaded in .GWD, you will need Samsung's Gear Watch Designer to open and install it to your Gear S2/S3.

I'm sorry I'm not really good at installing the glass too even tho its really easy. Simply use the suction cup provided to center up the glass and attach it to the display.

I follow the steps here : http://developer.samsung.com/gear/design/w...r-watch-getting

But this page miss out one important step which is mentioned by someone in the Gear S3 Facebook Group.

In order to run on your Gear, you need to click Build first then only click Run, every single time.

Here is the breakdown instruction on how to do it. Hope it will help others in the process... Rather then some ppl just ask to search google.

1. Make sure you computer / laptop are connected to router via cable (Not Wifi, A common misunderstanding mistake for those who use laptop or dongle)
2. Make sure you have Author Cert (With samsung Account) register. Before do anything.
3. Make sure you have Distributor Cert (With Samsung Account) register. This would require your watch to connected with the Gear watch design before you can register them.. P/S: it can be done after step 6
3. Load the the watch face.
4. Press F10 or go to project > Build to build your face watch .GWD to .TPK
5. Press F9 or go to project > Run on devices
6. Then there is a menu "Connect to gear" pop up. Click on the plus sign. Key in the IP address you get from your watch. (Setting > Connection > WIFI > WIFI Network > Click on the wifi your on > Scroll down > IP)
7. Make sure you watch is in debugging mode (Settings > Gear info > Scroll down > Debugging mode)
8. You watch will show up on the "Connect to gear" menu. Click on it.

Note 1: If you don't have Distributor Cert registered. The transfer will stop at 61% an error will pop up.
Note 2: Author & Distributor Cert and Registered can be found at Gear Watch design app under Project

Just want to try my luck, anybody comes across any Samsung outlet or any outlet that have stock for Gear S3 Frontier? No luck searching around 1U & The Curve.
