The Korean tech giant's latest wearable works a charm, but could do better in the style department
Expert review by : James Peckham (techradar.com)
The Galaxy Watch 3 sees Samsung take an already fantastic smartwatch and improve it further with new fitness features and design tweaks.
Great, premium design Rotating bezel is useful Strong fitness features
Battery could be better Tizen’s apps are limited High price
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 offers one of the best smartwatch experiences on the market, with a dazzling design and top-end spec that allows it to run as smoothly as any other wearable on the market. It isn’t faultless, and its improvements over the...

Wait, what, where's the Watch 2? There is no such device, with Samsung's follow-up Apple Watch rival going straight to mk3 for its second gen release.
Attractive design and fully round screen ; Smaller and lighter than original ; Rotating bezel is brilliant ; Great running tracking features
Battery life isn't great ; Third-party music apps are slow and inconsistent ; Not as many popular apps/services as Apple Watch/Wear OS
The second-gen Galaxy Watch refines rather than reinvents the design of the original, delivering a more feature-packed wrist-worn wearable with additional finesse. It is pricier this time around though.

Android smartwatches haven't taken off quite like the Apple Watch Series 6 and its predecessors. However, Samsung has established itself as the go-to for the best combo of fitness and smart features on an Android watch. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3...

It might be more expensive than the original, but there's a lot to love about the Galaxy Watch 3.
Expert review by : Zachary Chan (hardwarezone.com.sg)
Samsung's Galaxy Watch 3 ticks all the right boxes for Android owners looking for a comprehensive smartwatch experience, so what's the catch?
Full-fledged smartwatch experience ; Physical rotating bezel ; Responsive auto-activity tracking ; Advanced running metrics ; Premium health features provided free
ECG function still unusable in Singapore ; HRM sensor needs an upgrade ; Battery-life vs. first-gen Galaxy Watch ; Price
Expert review by : GSMArena team (gsmarena.com)
Saying that smartwatches have become an integral part of our lives would be an overstatement but we are (probably) headed in that general direction. And...
Premium build, nice and light feel.
Disappointing battery life, even compared to its predecessor.
Still, there are some hurdles that even Samsung wasn't able to get through and the biggest one is battery life. Going beyond two days on the 41mm version is a struggle to say the least. And another big hurdle is the ECG certification. It's sad to see...

If you own an Android phone, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 should be at the top of your smartwatch shopping list. It's expensive, but worth it.
Stylish, traditional watch looks ; Attractive, reliable software ; Brilliant rotating bezel aces the control system ; Comprehensive health-tracking features ; Solid battery life
Questionable fitness-tracking accuracy ; Slow battery charging
Expert review by (engadget.com)
With the Galaxy Watch 3, Samsung continues to prove it can make a better smartwatch companion for Android phones than Google. Although the Watch 3 is chunkier than its similarly capable Active series, it brings improved sleep and health tracking...
Useful spinning bezel ; Good sleep tracking ; Clever activity suggestions ; Improved workout tracking
Chunky ; Expensive compared to Galaxy Watch Active 2
