The Gear S3 Classic is more suited for the customers from the corporate world, while the Fear S3 Frontier is for a more rugged look. Both the smartwatches have an IP68 water resistance rating. Both support mobile payments, LTE connectivity. The Samsung Gear S3 also comes with a built-in sound system and GPS system. These latest smartwatches will also have fitness apps like the S Health app, Altimeter/Barometer apps and Speedometer apps.

The latest smartwatches from Samsung will also enable the user to swipe credit and debit cards and make payments subsequently which is quite incredible. That means the devices will have MST payment capabilities.

The immensely intelligent Gear S3 is a testament to our focus on evolving and leading the wearables category and ultimately delivering a smartwatch unlike any other on the market.”

The Samsung Gear S3 comes in a 1.3-inch Super AMOLED circular display protected by Corning Gorilla Glass SR+. These latest smartwatches will run on a 1.0-GHz dual-core processor and have the Tizen based wearable platform 2.3.1 O operating system.  The device will have a 768 RAM and an internal memory of 4 GB.

It seems that Samsung is ready to take themselves ahead in the market of gadgets. And in this process, they have left the horror memories of Galaxy Note 7 fiasco behind. With the Samsung Gear S3 smartwatches, we are ready to get something mindblowing as it has both the updated smartwatch features as well as the classic analogue watch appearance.
