Omg I'm really sorry I accidentally cut that out at the end. The battery life for the Watch 3 is 1.5 days on minimal use. For someone like me who receives lots of notifications and exercises once a day, it will get you through the day, but definitely not through the next. You'll have to charge it every night before you sleep. Again, my apologies for accidentally cutting out the part on battery life.
@@LimReviews Under what settings? Always on display on or off? I have the 41mm version and with Always On Display and heart rate monitor set to 10 minute intervals the watch lasts me about 36 hours.
Hi Lim, great review even though it’s from 2 years ago. Would recommend this as replacement for Apple Watch? Seeing it nowadays, it’s affordable. Thanks
at least the galaxy watch has a setting to receive vibration only on notification without waking up the screen and immediately showing the notification. and the always on display actually shows the watch face you have. but then again you get what you pay for tgats why it costs way more. what the amazfit t rex has for me over the galaxy watch is the polycarbonate g shock style body. wish the galaxy watch had budget version with more rugged g shock style bodies because some people like me like rocking those kinda watches
I have galaxy fit 2 and I don't see any best thing buying this watch 3. I do like tracking my sleep but if that is not comfortable to wear during sleep then it's not worth to buy and I just stick with my galaxy fit 2. Even my galaxy fit 2 has 21 days battery life.
its actually not that good So I finally received mine in the mail. Right out of the box it demands rights to your privacy or it won't work. It ask "Allow Galaxy Watch 3 Plugin to access this device calendar? I chose deny and it closed the app, I said allow only while using the app and it closed that application. The only acceptable response is Allow all the time. That goes for everything that is "asked" (demanded), which includes phone, storage, SMS (which is understandable) but Calendar, Location, Contacts is none of your business if I don't want my watch to have it. If you don't allow these all the time then you can't use the watch or the wearable software. It still will not allow you to delete apps that you don't want (does Samsung listen?) I can't even delete the 13 watch faces that it came with. This is the equivalence of purchasing a car the refuses to let up windows when is 114 degrees outside. It still forces you to have Bixby without the option to delete it. The band looks awesome on TH-cam and the box casing, but in person the band is cheap and flat as a pancake, and squeaks as if it came from the dollar store. The watch was promised to be lighter and that cheap band is how it's possible . Needless to say I used the rubber band from my gear S3 which by the way still fits and also brought the weight back which wasn't heavy to begin with. After owning the Gear S3 I realize that there is really not much of a difference from watch 3 other than the price hike. Promises of the blood pressure cuff is still not on this watch or the last watch as promised. Spotify finally allows you to download offline which is awesome, but it takes a long time to access songs on your play list because of the lagging and loading that it does just to open a folder. The platform is the same, the apps are the same. It's a great watch I just don't understand how everyone makes it seem like big changes were made from the last three generations other than broken promises. I honestly only purchased this one because my gear S3 wouldn't hold a charge and Samsung didn't want to fix/warranty it anymore.
But why no announcements and major uprising because the ECG and Blood Pressure reading options ONLY work on Samsung phones. Can't install the needed Health Monitor app on non-Samsung phones. Bah! Super Pissed that I wasted my money, this was the whole reason I bought this watch. This kind of thing is why I dropped Samsung for Pixel phone years ago. Thought I would give Samsung one more chance, and they blew it big time. Bad Move Samsung!

Sorry bro, this insight of mine has no intention of flaming you or anyone here. It is just my 2 cents. Anyway, great review bro.
Not a Word about battery life

Any update feedback in battery life for LTE on after one month? Tq
Which one to buy Watch Active 2 or Watch 3?
is the screen better than the frontier model?
Hi Lim, great review even though it’s from 2 years ago. Would recommend this as replacement for Apple Watch? Seeing it nowadays, it’s affordable. Thanks
@Lim Reviews Just want to clear it out once again which size were you wearing in this video 44mm or 41mm?
How was the swimming feature?
Nice review Lim, a very informative review
Hey Lim, can we get meeting schedule as well on the calendar.
You're the best Asian review, straight to the point
You're too kind!
When will we be getting a first look at the Zepp e smartwatch or unboxing/review. Guess we have to stay tuned for that😃😃👀👀👀

This is such a great idea. You’re right about that. If Samsung comes out with something like you mentioned it might actually be a game changer.
buy this or wait for galaxy watch 4? kinda tempting offer, someone offered me,45mm wifi version for 180USD/800MYR sealed in box.
take it?
How long is the battery life with intense use? Which do you prefer compared with GTR amazfit?
With intense use, probably just a day. Fully charge in the morning, then probably down to 20% by night.
Ingat bateri mcm Amazfit GTR...kecewa.
This watch Does it works only with samsung smartphones? Or any Android phone?
Any android or even iphone
To the people who use this now
How is the battery??
Is the UI glitchy?
How is are the updates
Is it worth buying now??
Does it work with Amazon Music app?
So it doesn't support for the blood pressure and ECG app yet?
Lim can we have a review for DTX SMARTWATCH,thank you.
Young Jet Lee ;) when is Amazfit GTS 3 coming out?
Are you restricted to notifications from Samsung apps only? example text app can it be third party like Verizon
You can get notifications from almost every app, but you might only be able to respond to a few.
Interesting and detailed review. Thank you for your hard work 👍🏻
Thank you!
Hey, do galaxy watch 3 LTE variant have 1.5 GB or 1 GB of RAM?
It only has 1gb of ram, which is less than the lte active 2. But I think the new tizen os version should make up for that difference
Hi just wondering weather this watch hav blood pressure monitor for msia market?
You could have used rotating bezel for all those swipes.
Don't mind telling us what is your wrist diameter so we can better estimate how the watch will look on ours :)
I think it's 22cm if I recall correctly.
Waiting for this!👍🏻
Thanks HY!
can use blood pressure out of box ?
Nope!
Does LTE version available in Malaysia?
Yep! Check out Samsung site.
No update from Samsung Malaysia...I'm waiting for eSim model too
Hi is the ECG Features available in malaysia
hows the battery?
1.5 days max on minimal usage. For myself, probably have to charge every night.
Can the watch play joox? Coz i already subscribed to joox
It should work with soundcloud , correct?
Hmm not sure bout that but I’d expect most music apps to work.

Does this watch have Samsung pay
What's your wrist size??
its actually not that good

Hi Joel, for your case, you might wanna check out the Amazfit smartwatches I've reviewed.
how much ? is it expensive
Price in description bro. It depends on your region ;)
But why no announcements and major uprising because the ECG and Blood Pressure reading options ONLY work on Samsung phones. Can't install the needed Health Monitor app on non-Samsung phones. Bah!

I will wait for the price to down a bit
That's a great idea :)
No word on battery life
At the middle bro. 1.5 days max. That's the main downside to this watch.
also no word on esim support

which color should i get. Mystic black or silver
Black!
