Gear S3 hidden port

[JKrus]

I've come to notice that on my Samsung Gear S3 that there is a little hidden port. If you hold it up right with the buttons up, it's on the right side underneath the wrist band. Underneath the cover is 5 pins, anybody have a clue what that is for?

So when you get it serviced, they can steal your data.

Interesting find. Never seen that before on any reviews.

Unless this schematic is wrong. That's either the barometer or linear motor.

Some watches have ports there for band peripherals.

Is it LTE or bluetooth model. Wouldnt be surprised if it was a port on the LTE model for the carriers.

That is a frontier. The classic i have doesn't have that port
