Isn't it amazing on how they engaged professional watch designer to design the physical aesthetics for their gear s3? I'm aiming for the frontier version if the price is good, if not, nah. :D

why are they making such big watches? 46mm is huge.
Because they got professional watch designers for this s3. Many luxury watches are 46mm. Thus this s3 doesn't look like a typical smart watch and also not like a gadget.

I think it's not gonna be cheap too.

Shouldn't cost lesser than $600 maybe.

confirm is not cheap, S2 wasnt cheap either. this is one is bigger so more material plus the position as a watch will definately command higher pricing....

I was about to get the Huawei watch. But after looking at the frontier model I am leaning towards getting this..

Like that I'll give it a pass unless our telcos are ready for e-sim which I feel they're not.

Will stick with my Urbane 2 LTE.

Maybe the Frontier model is targeted at people who like the Tag Heuer Connected?

It looks quite similar to the Tag.

Does anyone know if tizen os has an app store for the smartwatch? Can't seem to find out what apps are available for the smartwatch... Hardware wise and looks, I'm sold to get this.. But... Apps is also an important factor...

The quality of Gear S3 is better than Gear S2.
Gear S and Gear S2 the price difference is $50.

But I cant remember Gear S is how much, $498 or $448.
