S3 for an LG Sport

[JR Messina]

Anyone currently have an LG Watch Sport that is interested in swapping for a S3 Frontier non GSM?

I think you'd be trading down

What's your reasons for saying that?

Based upon my usage:
*Loss of Samsung Pay
*Loss of Tizen

But, I also haven't used an LG Sport, so what would be your reasons for switching to one?

I have had both. The S3 is the better watch imo especially if you have a Samsung phone.

From a fit stand point
The LG Sport is a really thick watch. Anytime I would open a door that would need to push to exit, my hand would push on the crown and start the google assistant.
The band cannot be replaced and I found my wrist would get really sweaty under that band.

Software wise Samsung is more complete right now. I do think that will change with google’s Watch OS and will have a more complete App Store at some point.

I aggree that the Gear is a better watch but the lack of apps along with connection issues with my pixel are frustrating. I have a tic watch but it's slow and missing some hardware features.

When I had the LG watch I had the Pixel XL ver 1. I also used the S3 with it. I understand what you are experiencing with the connectivity.
