Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 Stainless Steel 45 Mm Bluetooth Smart Watch – Mystic – Is it worth upgrading ?

This watch is not for the u. It’s for the eastern european market, as some other reviews have mentioned. This means that you can only set the region for a limited number of non-gb countries,. There is a sticker on the box saying u. But it must have been added separately. It doesn’t have to cause an issue unless you want to use samsung pay (which you can’t), but buyers should be able to purchase with full knowledge of limitations and why it’s cheaper.

Its a very premium watch and it really feels great to wear it. Some of the most advanced featured that any smart watch out there can boast of. I would highly recommed this watch.

Great to keep track of steps battery could last longer.

Excellent watch like all the samsung models and certainly does what it says on the tin ,but is it worth upgrading from the original galaxy watch (£179 on amazon) to the galaxy watch 3 ( around £369 on amazon). The two watches in my view are identical in performance except that the 3 has a stress analyser and an oxygen blood analyser (no blood pressure analyser as yet ,in europe). Also it has a slimmer profile and is slightly lighter. So work it out yourself if you wish to have the two extra items plus less size and weight then you will have to pay around £200 more if not then the original is still a mighty fine watch.

Fantastic upgrade from my gear3.

Both for fitness tracking and for payments. I also love the classic styling. Only really have 1 negative comment and 1 warning. Negative – too easy to accidentally press back button when wrist is flexed. . As a motorcycle rider the gloves often cause this. Activating the wireless payment function and causing device to vibrate until cancelled. Probably not and issue for most people. Warning – not all carriers support the 4g capabilities, so check. If your provider does not then you may want to consider either changing provider or buying the model without this feature.

  • It’s good – but pointless – with low battery life

  • Great watch but unable to set to UK region on the watch I got, so Samsung Pay isn’t working

  • Fantastic watch

Love this watch, it’s not too heavy on the wrist and looks beautiful. I customised mine with a bezel (i think it comes plain for you to do this?) just a few quid and you can change the look of the watch whenever you like. It paired to my galaxy phone flawlessly, as soon as you turn the watch on, my phone saw it and wanted to be friends immediately. I guess if you have another make of phone this won’t be quite as smooth?.Really nice features and pretty much limitless faces to download, many of which are free. Great for me as i work in hospitals and it means i don’t have to get my phone out to answer calls, useful during covid times unfortunately. Thoroughly recommend but not cheap.

Only had my watch a couple of days. Noticed battery don’t last long, even when fully charged it states 27 hours.

Watch arrived in a cheap long thin cardboard box, with a cheap plastic charger, and the strap was not long enough for a man. The watch itself works fine but battery only lasts a day;and £400 was much too expensive for what it is. I should have returned it but i waiter too long.

So happy with this watch, battery life is around 3 days. Fits nicely and a good price too.

It’s a good looking watch and really like getting prompted that my phone is ringing and getting messages. I really don’t like the sleep function. As other reviewers have said, it just doesn’t record deep sleep, even with constant hr monitoring. I’m not impressed with the sleep and steps app on the phone. I expected something much better than veryfit that came with my very cheap previous watch. Battery life is not great but i charge it when i shower and before going to sleep, which keeps it topped up.

Up your game with built-in oxygen measurement

Galaxy Watch3 is the fitness watch that uses red LED and infrared rays to estimate your SpO2 levels².

²SpO2 is defined as saturation of percutaneous oxygen. Normal levels in humans are measured at approximately 95-100%. Factors like vigorous exercise, the amount of oxygen in the air, your elevation, and various health conditions can all result in lower readings.

Fall detection with SOS alerts

Galaxy Watch3 smart watch automatically detects hard falls with its enhanced accelerometer³.

³Galaxy Watch3 can initiate Emergency call and message if you take a hard fall and don’t seem to move. Galaxy Watch3 cannot detect all falls. The more physically active you are, the more likely you are to trigger Fall Detection due to high impact activity that can appear to be a fall. Sending SOS calls and messages requires network connection and smartphone pairing.

Awesome watch paired with my note 10. I charged it to 100% and began wearing at 8pm on sunday evening. Didn’t need to charge it again until wednesday at 6pm in the evening when it had reached 8%. During that time i did the usual fiddling with it like anyone with a new gadget. I set it to monitor my heart rate every 10mins. I turned the nfc off as i don’t use it. I also have the screen always on set to off. All other settings i’ve left as they are. It also has been monitoring my sleep every night and i’ve checked my blood oxygen and stress levels a few times. I’ve also received and responded to text message and whatsapp messages.

This is the best watch i’ve owned, coming from an apple watch 5. Stunning g looking and has all the features i need.

Beautiful watch haven’t used it for long but its brilliant straps grate quality.

As someone who has used the withings hybrid smart watches i was curious to give this a go. I was attracted by the blood pressure monitoring which isnt available yet. That a pretty big thing to have missing at launch. I have several issues with it1. The watch’s beauty does not match the price tag. Really this is an expensive watch and i dont want to look like a silly geek wearing a bit of tech on his wrist. I want it to look good and people to say ‘that looks nice’. The whole premise of a full smart watch versus a hybrid.

Just had settings for eastern europe so had to use english and cyprus to work in uk.

The watch is great, and very happy with my choice. With one important exception – although it stated that this watch was a uk version, when i went to set up the watch, it only offered me the regions of cyprus, poland and a few other eastern european countries. This isn’t an issue for the language as you can pick english, nor is it an issue for the majority of apps, but it is very much an issue where you want to install samsung pay, which won’t work in watches set to those regions. I believe the only way to fix this is to update the firmware on the watch, which isn’t really something i want to do on a brand new watch. Not being able to use samsung pay isn’t a massive deal to me, but i was left a bit disappointed by buying a watch labelled uk version only to find out it was unable to be set to that region.

Galaxy Watch3 encases game-changing tech in a classic watch body.

Absolutely amazing watch i brought the titanium version & it did not disappoint, it’s beautiful yet rugged & such a nice display quite light weight with unique design for the link where you push a button & remove the pin, it fit me perfectly even with my fairly small wrists but it will also fit large wrists too, worth waiting for the titanium version to come out.

I’m a huge advocate and supporter of samsung being a customer for many years with phones, tv and tablets. I have come from the ticwatch pro and got to say this watch is gorgeous, tizen is slick and it does everything i want it to do. If you enjoy changing watch faces regularly like me get the watchmaker app. The watch works great with my galaxy note 9 (getting note 20 ultra in dec) and samsung pay works seamlessly too. If your bank isn’t supported get samsung pay card through curve and all is good. I also got a rinke bezel cover for mine so it gives it a more unique look which i love.

I had a gear sport before (which was almost set on fire by a third-party charger. )this is bigger, but feels the same weight as the gear sport with a steel band. It feels like a premium watch, but not 100% sure the extra £200 for the titanium version was worth it. A few things to note so far: – it is not 4g. I think amazon have changed their description now, but at the time of writing the model selection on the amazon uk page still says ‘titanium 4g’. Not a worry for me, but i think it would be very annoying for some people. – it doesn’t seem to have stair counting any more (not that this was exactly accurate on my gear sport) – the strap unfolding is strange. It unfolds from both sides of the release clip.

I wish it supported google assistant. I saw a report that the battery wax good for 7 days but i only get 3. Maybe this will improve when i stop messing with alk the time .

It’s served me well so far, only slight issue i had was with the devices firmware as it infinitely span on the sleep time screen. A reset resolved that issue and has been fine since. I believe the android app used for applying watch faces etc could be improved. Also the default watch face are simply aweful. This is something they should work on, luckily there are better free watch faces available on the store. In summary i would recommend this smart watch to a friend.

You’re always in tune with the world when you’re wearing Galaxy Watch3.

Keep an eye on your daily wellness with Galaxy Watch3.

The gorgeous Super AMOLED touch display is protected by maximum strength Gorilla Glass, so it’ll stay pristine season after season.

Vodafone V-Kids Watch – Good idea, poor execution

Son loves his new smart watch. Well made, location accuracy not always the best but my iphone xs max is sometimes off too. The general location coupled with voice notification should be enough if we needed to local our son. Worthy purchase if you can buy it on offer like i did. Not to sure it’s worth the full rrp. Setup isn’t straightforward so be prepared to spend sometime setting it up. Once the product is all set up it really is a good piece of kit, it takes little time to go through the process with the vodafone sim but it is worth doing. It is easy to voice message and gives me peace of mind with the sos function built in, the games are a good feature to keep the little one entertained. The gps tracking works well with the vodafone signal and no problems so far. Love this, it’s a brilliant well designed product but the battery life is very disappointing. Esta muy bien, yo se lo he comprado a mis hijos y es casi exactoen la posición aunque podrian mejorar la interface e incluso

I got this for my niece and nephew and i saw blue and pink ones as an christmas gift they loves it. Very easy to set up and use and comes with many features. She particularly loves the camera and her mum loves it because she fells more safety, comfortable to wear and looks so high quality.

Motast Smart Watch : Works exactly as you would expect

Bought this watch as a gift for hubby, and it is keeping him very happy. Not only it looks good (and very handsome) on his wrist, the battery life is long enough, he has so far only charged once when it first arrived, and it has been going strong ever since. Have yet to try the other functions, but to be honest, for us, the good look and long battery life is the two most important factors when comes to choosing a watch. Loloverall, very happy with this purchase, highly recommend it. I loved itarrived in brilliant condition and the very next day after i brought it too, arriving in a sturdy solid box making it very secure and safe from any knocks and bruisesi bought this beautiful watch for my husband. He had expensive smart watch before but get broken. I really was thinking i will get chip one now temporarily and late buy different. But now my husband love his watch so much. Came in a small box along with an instruction booklet, charging cable. It was already half charged when it arriv
