Design

The Gear S3 looks and feels natural on your wrist and when you use it. Like a traditional watch. Only much more capable

Experience

The Gear S3 sets you free from your phone in the most natural way. You only have to turn the bezel to respond to calls, to read messages, to go to that app you need.

Just twist the bezel

Answer a call, turn up the volume or turn off the alarm. Turn the bezel to scroll through apps, messages and long text. It couldn't be easier to do what you want, to get to what you want.

Make calls freely

You don't need your phone with you. The Gear S3 has a built-in speaker that lets you make or take calls right away on the device.

Performance

Go for a run, a round of golf, go exploring on your bike. Gear S3 has a built-in GPS that gives you the freedom to explore and to stay on track even without your phone. And with its long-lasting battery, you only need to set it down for a charge every few days.

Stay on the map

Even without your phone, you can check the distance you've covered, the trail you need to take. You're able to track your progress from your daily runs to your golf score on the green. The GPS on the Gear S3 takes care of it all.

Go days without charging

It's truly liberating to have a battery that lasts long enough for you to go on a trip without a charger.
