Move Over Apple Watch 2, Samsung Gear S3 Frontier Is Here! Experts Say Apple Watch Finally Met Its Match?

Samsung Gear S3 Frontier is reported to be a worthy opponent of Apple Watch 2 in smart watch kingdom. Apple Watch 2 has remained unbeatable for its features, however, Apple may be shaken and rattled because of the Frontier which just recently joined in. Experts have weighed in their thoughts and find out if, indeed, the top spot has been snatched away from Apple Watch 2.

According to Engadget, the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier is considered to be bigger, better, and is a more refined take on Samsung smart watch formula. It is also reported that Samsung threw in every feature conceivable in the device making it top-of-the-class. It makes it a worthy consideration to buy as it is loaded with features sure to meet every demand of the most discerning smart watch user.

It is important to note, though, that Samsung Gear S3 Frontier is one big smart watch. Users with thinner wrists may look away as it can be overpowering. However, since big watches are considered a fad nowadays, this may make a good statement piece. For those who care about wrist:smart watch ratio, this may not give that desired proportion.

The Samsung Gear S3 Frontier's screen is also considered a standout. It can display up to 16 million colors when the always-on display is enabled. It also looks like a real watch even if not worn or used. The Frontier is not only for sports tracking but can also be worn in daily functions, even when it is a corporate or a black-tie event.

The Gear S3 Frontier runs on Tizen which is smartly laid out to take advantage of the spinning bezel. Turning it clockwise gives all notification in one place and moving it the opposite direction will show the widgets added. It is basically as simple as that.

As added by Express UK, its latest update states that Samsung's TizenOS, the operating system that powers the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier will officially be released on Sept. 2017. The new software is expected to be shipped with a richer feature set and faster speeds compared to its predecessors.

In conclusion, Apple Watch 2 may still be the better option over Samsung Gear S3 Frontier. This is simply because Apple Watch 2 is sleeker and less-chunky compared to the Frontier. However, if its gargantuan size is not so much of an issue, then Samsung Gear S3 Frontier takes home the grand prize. It is loaded with so much features that make it useful in a multitude of tasks.
