Good Watch That Could Be Great
Customer Rating

If you have a Samsung phone (I have the Note8) and want a smartwatch to extend its functionality, the Gear S3 is the watch for you. It connects almost seamlessly with the Note8. S health syncs automatically between the watch and phone. My favorite feature is Samsung Pay, which works with both NFC readers and most regular card scanners. The watch faces are great. I love the always-on watch faces - the TUMI watch face is nice in that mode. I love that you can make and take calls from the watch and respond to messages and texts. Aside from making calls, almost everything else works independently of the phone - including Samsung Pay. I do find it odd, however, that with the watch, you have to register all of your cards again and you've essentially got two Samsung Pay apps to monitor - one for your phone and one for your watch. I wish it were better integrated.
Here are my gripes with the watch: It's not a very good fitness tracker and I wouldn't recommend wearing it at the gym if you're lifting weights. The bezel and screen are tough, but they will scratch surprisingly easy when you're using a kettlebell!. I don't trust the heart rate readings, but I think that's a problem with any wrist-based monitor. To make matters worse, the watch itself doesn't natively pair to any heart rate monitor chest strap or device - you have to link those directly to your phone, which kind of eliminates the purpose. So, buy it as a smartwatch, but not as a fitness tracker.
My biggest gripe is the absolute lack of apps. There are a bunch, but they all mostly suck. I really wanted a great hiking app. I mean it's called "Frontier" for lord's sake - I expected a native hiking app with turn by turn directions! There's also only one map app available that is any good from Here Maps - nothing from Google. So, it's a terrible navigation device overall.
Main takeaway is that the watch is a wonderful extension of your Samsung phone and in some instances a replacement for the phone (and your wallet), but the watch falls short as a fitness tracker or navigational device.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this fridge for my office. It was a bigger fridge than I had intended to buy, but it was more inexpensive than anything else I could find. This fridge is extremely quiet and keeps my food and beverage items cold without issue. I hope it works this way next year and the one after that too!

does both the frontier and the tumi monitor your sleep? if it or both monitor sleep , do they do pretty well?
To clarify, the Tumi is just the Frontier with a Tumi band and available Tumi watch face - no difference in performance or function. To answer your question, yes, they track your sleep. I haven't analyzed the overall effectiveness, but it's pretty smart and gets my "going to bed" and "wake up" times almost exactly. I don't have to do anything.

Is there a crisper drawer
the specs mention a crisper but the photo does not show a drawer. Is it just a space at the bottom?
No crisper drawer on this model. It's just a cold box with some shelves.
