Yeah, Especially Samsung Gear watch......

It is either samsung play safe ( Make small qty based on their last model survey for the market) then unexpectedly hit with high demand order or a sudden surge of high demand smart watch lately with normal stock prediction or could be the decline of AW watch pushing tizen up in the market...Overall S3 is a nice watch, a watch that make noise when you sit for 1 hours doing nothing, and praise you when you start walking around.... lolz  sweat.gif

Agree, im becoming butthurt when the watch reminded me to take a walk. sweat.gif

So Moto360 (2nd Gen), Huawei Watch, LG G Watch Urbane still the best? laugh.gif

Honestly, my perfect watch will be:
1. Wireless charging - all these pin magnetic charger hassle to use. kudos to moto 360 for got this right on the first place.
2. Full circle watch with high res screen - LG G Watch R started this, and no turning back for me.
3. Adequate battery life - Pebble was awesome in this regards until i forgot to charge haha
4. Scratch resistance glass - Huawei Watch excel in this, but....
5. Good vibration motor - again Huawei Watch worse on this. Need good vibration as i always silent my phone during office hours.
6. App support - All AW watches, Pebble and Apple Watch have good app support, Tizen still lacking big time.

None of current watch got all above since ive been using most of smartwatch on market since Sony SW1, the one that come close is Gear S3 (which is lacking item no. 6, but 5 out of 6 should be good enough for me).

So Gear S3 for me now, see what will happen next year.

That's why I'm glad Huawei watch are silver, but not as sexy as black  cry.gif  ( I'm weird that like black color watch, even from analog era )

On ZenWatch 3, they managed to put ambient light sensor while having circular display, THAT's the reason I want it  rclxms.gif

not to sound like a gear s3 fanboy now (i am tech and gadget fanboy anyway laugh.gif ), but samsung also manage to find a way to put ambient light sensor just right behind screen of gear s3

Which means no free gift right..?
I see. Thanks for the feedback.

Anyone using screen protector for the S3..? Does it really need a screen protector since the watch screen is way below the bezel..?
*
used tempered glass on it for 10 minutes, then i removed it. dont like the feel and look of it when applied on s3's screen.

thinking to get Pebble 2 for $90 from Amazon, if I ship-forward it here, what other cost should I be aware of? Custom? Sirim? or else? How much will it be? Thanks.

Not the best time to get Pebble... pity they got lots of potential...

IINM I read that Fitbit buy Pebble to 1. shut down competitor and 2. grab their s/w and development team, so possibility of above are too slim.

Agree, very slim chance of new Pebble hardware to come out from Fitbit.

Great loss for wearable world.

Try look at this. Got mine installed & have 3 more units left for sale.

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.

better get gear s3 or wait for s4?

There is no S4 coming out in foreseeable months, only Gear Sport just released (which is smaller and more sport oriented, hence the name). No issue getting S3 now.
