Entitle for both, so far I check lazada works with voucher but only RM30 + shopback. Some Samsung Store charge 2% on credit card, dilemma to get at lazada or samsung store.

Samsung store at Paradigm still got stock for both frontier and classic, as per 6pm frontier got 2 unit and classic got 4 unit left.

My s3 so far can last me 3 days with AOD off, NFC off, GPS off, WiFi on, Bluetooth on and continuous heart rate sensor.

Press Home button, and select recent app then "close all" or you can go setting and set double press home key to open recent app then "close all"

www.gearprojects.com have alot of nice gear watch face for free, its for S2 but i try most of it and it works on S3 too.

Facer (Android playstore app) - you can use this app too if you want some free/paid watch face without needed to side load using GWD(Gear watch designer), this app need to install in both your phone and watch it even have auto shuffle your watch face from every 15 mins to 3 hour interval.

FACES or FACER? If FACER, you have to see if the watch face compatible with Tizen as they also develop watch face for Android Wear, beside that FACER 3.0 which support GEAR S3 is reported of having tons of bug now, better avoid at the moment until most is fix

Surprisingly on the day of launch, I bought at Paradigm they allow me to choose. I gotten 1 Alligator Leather Band and 1 Red Band which similar to the one come with watch.

Haha, yeap...but the leather band dont really look nice, planning to sell it away. Already order a few strap from taobao, still waiting for arrival

I believe have to use Gear Watch Designer, you can get those .gwd file from facebook page "Samsung Gear S2 and S3" where alot of watch developer share their free .gwd watch face on the website. Another alternative is to download watchland in your phone, then use watchland to download those watch face in to your phone and copy it to your PC to sideload from gear watch designer.

Saw review at XDA, seems to able to protect the whole watch. Anyone interested to bulk order it?

It's not release on gear s3 yet for samsung pay.

Just wondering whats the app that you need but its not there?

Isit possible to go Samsung Service Center to change my Gear S3 firmware from Malaysia to Singapore? I'm currently working in Singapore and wanna use the samung pay feature, called Samsung Singapore and they give me bullshit answer saying Malaysia Gear S3 dont have NFC and MST thus cant utilize the Samsung Pay feature, when I deny the statement they told me that the region is hard coded in the hardware and it's not something can be change via firmware update Which I doubt it too.....

Sadly Gear S3 no Samsung Pay reward yet and if there is, it seem like what you pay using Phone Samsung Pay you wont get reward point at Gear S3 & vice versa if pay with Gear S3

Yeap, i understand the card have to re-enter due to security issue which it's stored locally in the secure storage.

Just that both Samsung Pay using same account but the reward point is not sync and separated individually which I feel it's not so convenient. Dont think feedback will works, SG is doing the same and both Gear & Phone have different reward point deals and reward, you may earn more using Gear here in SG.

It's not to say store locally, but it's by device and used some token to achieve the transaction. So, whenever you change device, you would have to register your credit/debit card in the new device again, there is nothing store in any server or sort.

It's because bank need to know the token too, so most likely that's why. Anyway, we should not discuss this here anymore
