Anyone getting a watch to go with their Note 8

[jsk0703]

I have the Gear S3 and it works okay with my V20. But I'm looking forward to getting back to the Note family for better integration.

I planned to get the S3 Frontier/Classic as well, LTE. But I am waiting to hear about the S4 coming out soon before I jump.

The gears s line is moving to a 2 year life cycle. The Gear s 4 isn't coming until next year

Waiting on a sale from TMobile so I can either get an S3 on sale on EIP, or buy it outright whenever the newer devices go on sale.

I already have the Gear S3 Frontier and I'm loving it will be keeping it

if they were updating the Gear S3 Frontier I would've gotten the update, but this does everything and more than my Android Wear did... I am waiting until my Kickstarter for Ze Time comes in... (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1282890542/zetime-worlds-first-smartwatch-with-hands-over-tou)

Guess I'm getting the s3 Frontier then. Thanks for the info!

The gear sport. The S3 is too big for me and the S2 is too old so I'll wait for the gear sport.

Nope, had a Gear 2 Neo and used it daily until it died, after a few weeks I quit missing it and have no desire to spend the money required to get another smart watch.

Most useful thing it did was wake me up, the vibration on my wrist was the best alarm clock over. Made a good universal remote as well, but just not worth $200 or $200 to replace.

I agree, just can't see spending that much for any of the current generation Android watches. Also considering the low sales volume for Android watches I want to wait and watch the trend.

I've been using the Gear S3 Frontier since it came out. First with the S7Edge now with the S8+.

Already have the gear S3. Great watch. Had the gear S2 but sold it when gear S3 came out.

Sticking with my Gear S2 (it grows on you) but I am looking forward to the Sport. Gear S3 is just way too big.

With the Note 8, if you go with a 2 year contract on the watch, you get $50 off the Gear S3 Frontier or $100 off the Gear S3. Looks like I'm ordering my S3 Frontier.....

A Garmin Fenix 3 is on my list.

In this day and age with technology and the way it advances I don't know how anyone could commit to a product for a two year contract ^^^

My Gear 2 Neo is still working. I love it. I got one because our office frowns on loud phones and getting notification from my elderly dad might be important. People use to think it was an Apple watch, now they think it's a Fit bit.

I'll get another smartwatch when mine dies. Not sure which one. I'll see what's available.

I preordered the Gear Fit 2 Pro. I was hoping it would be the free gift with the Note, but both Best Buy and Samsung are throwing in a set of wireless headphones with the purchase of the Fit 2 Pro, so not too bad. I ended up pre-ordering from Best Buy. I already have the Gear S2 and really like it, but I like the look of the black/red Pro.

I already have an S3 Classic and Frontier so I'm good to go. I currently use my Classic with my iPhone 6s Plus and my Frontier with my Note 5. I'm probably going to switch that around when I get theNote 8 since I use the Classic more.

Just went to local store & ordered my wife's Note 8. The store gave me $100 off the Gear S3 Frontier instead of $50 like the Verizon online rep told me. Now I gotta wait for this watch to charge fully before I get to play with it....I hate waiting!!!! lol

I've been a Gear S3 Frontier owner since last November and to be candid, I'm disappointed. I guess I expected more out of the S3. Sure, it's a nice smartwatch, but the S3 isn't up to par with the fitness activity, navigation and mapping capabilities of Garmin and Suunuto. I also recently sold my Garmin fenix 3 HR and purchased the Garmin fenix 5x. Sure, the fenix 5x will set you back $700.00 but for a serious fitness and cycling person like myself, it's worth every penny. Anyway, to each their own. My S3 is up for sale for $175. It's in excellent, like-new condition. Let me know if you are interested. We could do a PayPal transaction.
