11 Street or Lazada.

Scratched mine the third day on aluminium frame. After that numerous times hit metal door frame & wall, leave a mark on the bezel but just wipe it then gone.

I would say quite rugged for me especially for a person like me who like to swing my hand around. Haha.

Android wear is better in terms of functionality because it supports more apps. However battery life Tizen won hands down.

Facer is a nice free watch collection apps that I think it's comparable to WatchMaker. I found Facer is having much better quality watch faces & easy to apply compared to WatchMaker.

Gear S3 Tizen 3 is here.

My gear S3 is dead after updated to Tizen 3, always having battery overheated issue while charging. Never tot of an update could suddenly killed my Gear S3.

Latest battery fix updated also like tat?

Mine is problematic even since updated to Tizen 3.0. Always overheated when charging halfway & have to turn off, recently just sent to SC to repair due to blank screen. Before Tizen 3.0, my Gear S3 is running in great condition.

This is why I asked even latest so called battery fix patches for Tizen 3.0 also got such issue?

Huh? Then gg... I tot it's gonna fixed all issues which I'm having after Tizen 3.0.

Just got called from SC stated my gear S3 motherboard is damaged due to water flow in & I need to pay RM600 for the motherboard. No warranty. LOL.

IP68?

Yup. I'm not gonna pay RM600 for that. I oledi contacted Samsung Live Chat & raised this issue. Now waiting feedback from their management.

They said it's not under warranty because water oledi inside, they even shown me the evidence. However, I dun give a damn on that becoz I did washed & submerged all my Samsung devices & no issue found.

I think the rotating bezel is the place where the water may flow in, so becareful for those who own Gear S3. It's stated IP68 but water may goes in.

Understood but I truly never used it for swimming or submerged it more than 1.5m with more than 30mins. The worst case is washing it using hand soup on my basin & raised it till dry after that.

Finally, Gear S3 can show the history of Whatsapp after upgraded to Tizen 4.0. Which I have been waited for so long.

Flash using netOdin manually. Didn't come to Malaysia yet.

My gear S3 & galaxy watch can answer calls & talk without issue. Just speaker not that loud in noisy environment.

No matter which countries version also can answer call. It's I'm not mistaken all galaxy gear series can answer. I got gear S3 & galaxy watch only.

Better dun update even available. Reddit ppl said many issues especially battery drain, same like last time Tizen 3.0, disaster. Wait for new fix.

Updated my Galaxy Watch & it's OK. Not dare to update Gear S3 even I got the firmware files can be flashed using NetODIN.

Me. Better go for Samsung watch than Android watch.

Compatible even iPhone.

If can please skip it, you'll regret the lousiness of Android Wear. No offence to Android Wear users.

Samsung Galaxy Watch or Huawei Watch is way better & more practical.

I got Galaxy Watch, Gear S3 & Ticwatch Pro.

If u r looking for long life battery smart watch then GTR is good to go. I do prefer Galaxy watch because it's all-rounder.
