For anyone wondering if it fits, measure your wrist at top part (wrist bone to bone) and remove 5 mm (0.19 inch) from it, that is the max size of lug to lug you should wear (lug to lug is the part that hold your strap/band) the lug to lug size of the 45mm version should be 54mm (2.12inch) lug to lug, the 41mm version should be 4.66cm (1.83 inch) lug to lug. If you see this comment please like it so itll help more people pick the correct size for their wrist!
Thanks for the tip. I tried both 45mm (Garmin Forerunner 255) and 40mm (Samsung Galaxy Watch 4) - 40mm looks better on my wrist. So after I read your tips, I also got the 40mm as better choice (had to use plastic ruler instead of measuring tape, though 😅).
They skipped the "watch 2" to avoid confusion with the Active 2, so they called it the watch 3,...I guess nobody would confuse it with the S3 Classic or S3 Frontier...
Gorgeous watches, they will last for years reliability is a 10, built like a tank. They are waterproof Samsung is the best smart watch on the market period.

Nice video! For me I'm keeping my galaxy watch, don't like the new buttons makes it look like a stop watch. (Not a good look) and the first watch rotating bezel had a diamond like effect on the top, don't see it on new version 👎🏾
Theres nothing wrong with the original galaxy watch buttons, Infact as I wear mine inside my wrist during activity tracking for better heart rate monitoring, I could see these clunky things being an issue. Bad design on first impression
“people are pretty dumb” What a witty and hilarious comment. The scary thing is to realize how dumb the average person is and then realize that half (on average) are even dumber! Lol
I just got rid of mine in favour of the original galaxy watch as Argos were lobbing them out out for £220. Battery life is 4 days whereas this is like the s3 frontier at 2 days
you are the only reviewer who mentioned about the ESIM - LTE, where you can take calls when u leave your phone at home and you are out for a long jog. Ofcourse you can use ear buds to pair with ur watch to take that call so it wont be weird taking calls in public as u mentioned.
Would you recommend buying this piece of wearable? I've never had a smartwatch before and would love to get one. I'm using Android as my OS. I like the design better than the Apple watches, so I thought this would be the best match.

Good review, but you need to compare them using closer colours. The rose gold / black makes it too hard to compare. Black / silver vs black would be better.
I don't have a smart watch. Always wanted one. I'll be more than tempted to buy this. In fact, i think i'm going to pre-order to get a free battery pack and strap with it.
Are you using a Samsung phone or another android device? I want to buy it, but do not have a Samsung phone. I have heard mix reviews about using it with something other than a Samsung phone.
When excercising it's preferrable to swap the leather band for a sports band.. Is this a smooth thing to do or are little pliers or other tools needed for this 'operation', like on a classic watch ? I don't see myself x times a week doing an annoying wristband swap.
Got the current 46mm one. Was worried be too big but it's fine. Smaller one would limit the screen size. Only crap thing is getting music onto it. Same issue with most smart watches is a shameless lack of decent support for the main music services.
The vibration on my galaxy watch shit the bed last summer for some reason, have been wanting to get a new one with working vibration but im not sure if im sold on the upgrade yet. Havent tried any other android watches
Hello I have the same watch. How is the batter life? Mine is lasting only 1 day and I have been using it for a year now. At the beginning it was 3 days and it was fine. Now I am a bit upset to charge it everyday
From S3 you should upgrade to Galaxy Watch 46mm or Galaxy Watch Active 2 cause 3 imo is just waste of money literally waste of money. It would be better of you to get the previous generation watches
People are pretty dumb. I just came from watching the official Samsung video and mind-numbingly reading some of the comments. The future is dim if those commenters have anything to contribute to it.
Hi thank you for your review - please can you tell me 1) can i make payments with the watch like on my garmin and can i make phone calls from the watch (do i have to have my phone with me all the time)
BP , ECG and pulse oximeter (oxygen sats) only available in S.Korea. I'll consider this watch only and only when/if these become available in the UK. I wonder how many people have ditched android to go to apple just because of the Apple watch having these features in the upcoming watch 6 (ECG available since 2018!!).? Love the video by the way !!!! "Tight arse and dumb people" ;-)

@@juliemathias8107 Hi, I have the bluetooth version and the phone must be within certain reach of the watch, with LTE long as you pay with your carrier extra you can leave your phone behind. I always have to have my phone attached to my hip (lol) so bluetooth was fine for me.. Hope this helps 😊
@@TinkaFaith Hi I left you a msg about your watch and if you had Bluetooth or lte, and I appreciated you getting back to me, I thought I would let you know I ended up buying the 41mm bronze lte Samsung galaxy 3, and it’s beautiful I love it, so thank you again

can we use it to pick up call from media apps such as messager or what's app?
Not sure if i should upgrade from my gear s3 frontier
Hello I have the same watch. How is the batter life? Mine is lasting only 1 day and I have been using it for a year now. At the beginning it was 3 days and it was fine. Now I am a bit upset to charge it everyday
From S3 you should upgrade to Galaxy Watch 46mm or Galaxy Watch Active 2 cause 3 imo is just waste of money literally waste of money. It would be better of you to get the previous generation watches
I came here to watch for blood pressure monitor and ECG monitor. You totally missed that.
Same here..
Good review and funny! Subscribed
People are pretty dumb. I just came from watching the official Samsung video and mind-numbingly reading some of the comments. The future is dim if those commenters have anything to contribute to it.
I take it that they didn't add the MST feature back for Samsung Pay? I haven't upgraded from my Gear 3 Watch for this reason.
That's not coming back. It's used pretty much only in the US and decreasingly so.
Hi thank you for your review - please can you tell me 1) can i make payments with the watch like on my garmin and can i make phone calls from the watch (do i have to have my phone with me all the time)
Does it use heart rate to calculate calories or is it still based on an average preset calorie burn rate?
Antarang Jain somebody finally asking the right questions that's why I gave up my active 2
This guy looks like Murph from Impractical Jokers🤣🤣
BP , ECG and pulse oximeter (oxygen sats) only available in S.Korea. I'll consider this watch only and only when/if these become available in the UK. I wonder how many people have ditched android to go to apple just because of the Apple watch having these features in the upcoming watch 6 (ECG available since 2018!!).? Love the video by the way !!!! "Tight arse and dumb people" ;-)
Definitely interested to see how the battery life is on the 41mm because on my 42mm Rose Gold... its ok but not grand.
Hi I was wondering, do you have to put your watch on you account to be able to leave your phone at home and still receive phone calls and Msges? I’m not sure whether to buy lte or just Bluetooth
@@juliemathias8107 Hi, I have the bluetooth version and the phone must be within certain reach of the watch, with LTE long as you pay with your carrier extra you can leave your phone behind. I always have to have my phone attached to my hip (lol) so bluetooth was fine for me.. Hope this helps 😊
@@TinkaFaith Thank you very much for getting back to me, I appreciate it. They are a lot of money and your research has helped me a lot.
@@juliemathias8107 Aww thank you and glad I could help as they are definitely not cheap at all. Hope when you get one you enjoy to the fullest 😊
@@TinkaFaith Hi I left you a msg about your watch and if you had Bluetooth or lte, and I appreciated you getting back to me, I thought I would let you know I ended up buying the 41mm bronze lte Samsung galaxy 3, and it’s beautiful I love it, so thank you again
