my Gear S2 need charge daily, otherwise it only survived for 1.5 days due to I got too many notification from Telegram and Whatsapp.

I stucked with samsung gear . So wanna change to hua wei but still the best i used todate. Stuck with samsung gear s3

cz mine in power saving mode so is alright to last me few days
sometimes I disconnect it from my phone since most of the time phone just right beside me

no hassle for daily charge

Do you charge your phone daily? For me just reach home put the watch in the dock.

Mi band features are no match even can last 20 to 30 days. I go out these days I only wear my gear sport = gear, shopping spay gear , calender gear, notification and reminder gear, answer calls and make calls if phone in bag.

Lastly it looks like a normal watch but work as smartwatch while mi band like children watch.

Band itself is not comparable to Watch anyway, because is so slim and compact till you can wear anywhere like showering and sleeping (or maybe swimming? sorry I dont swim lol)

So is very personal preference to wear watch or band. I charge my watch on dock every night like my phone. but if you have multiple location to access charging is less convenient compare to a smartphone.

Like myself. I can charge my phone at
1. home
2. car
3. office
4. friend house
5. my in law house

whenever I feel that I need to charge and/or my battery is low as long I can find Type C (or Micro USB if anyone still using and/or lightning cable)

but for my watch (or any watch out there) that need to charge daily or 2 days still not quite convenient unless it support wireless charging on flat surface, at least we can utilise the reverse wireless charging or wireless charging pad.
for my own scenario. I have to get at least 5 dock or charging cradle for the watch (depend your model) to allow myself charge anywhere, anytime.

I thinking to change my gear battery . The dock so cheap



My room 1 dock, office 1 dock, one in my notebook bag in case.. i

Anyone tried Samsung gear charge over xiaomi wireless charger

Last time I came across there was some 3D printing to mount this things?

My unpopular opinion is very infrequent charging. And always on non LED type of screen that works great in sunlight.

Which is very rare to find in smartwatch nowadays.

Is GT2e fit for a petite lady?

Plan to grab one samsung galaxy watch 3 LTE from US. Will the Watch esim compatible with Malaysia Telco?

What if grab one LTE model watch from Taobao China? China model eSIm work well with Malaysia Telco?

bcos so far what i know the imported phone from US work with Malaysia Telco.....any advise?


YUP, i am worry too about warranty....but Samsung Malaysia dint bring in Watch 3/ Watch 1st gen/ watch active 2 with LTE model into Malaysia market......

Don't think we know the answer to that yet for now so I would say it is a gamble. Maybe one thing worth trying is changing CSC but the model number is different. Samsung Pay for Malaysia have a specific supported model and CSC combo. As long as Malaysia doesn't have official SKU for it then finding the CSC would be difficult as well

Thanks for comments, btw what is CSC?

As refer to https://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/galaxy-watch/carrier/

For galaxy watch LTE

Looks like US watch LTE model not compatible with Malaysia Telco band . China, Korea, Australia watch LTE model have the same band with Malaysia Telco? (Band 1, 3, 7....)

Am I right? Please correct me. Tq

thailand , singapore, hk watch 3 lte model how?

Some ppl call CSC as country specific code. It is a file stored as part together with modem, firmware and bootloader that contains Telco, country info and also plays a role in OTA distribution. So let's say the US watch3 has same model number, modem but different CSC, then a flash of the CSC is able to make it compatible in some instance. Case by case basis, sometimes doesn't work for certain models.

Sorry can't help on the bands compatibility. Guess only way to find out is after Malaysia release the SKU or someone got a US LTE unit then try it out here

I see. thanks for sharing. +LIKE


My dear Samsung Malaysia, please wake up

Hi, I am also thinking of getting a Singapore Galaxy Watch Lte version but so far haven't read anyone successfully used it with Msia Telco esim...

ya, me too. unless got friends in Sg is using samsung lte watch, only can get help from them try active eSim in Malaysia. Technically should be work because my friend bought xiaomi mi watch from HK/China can activate AirSim (nunmbershare) at Maxis centre. But no dare to try, because galaxy watch no cheap if unable to active eSim with Malaysia Telco.
