Samsung today unveiled the Gear S3, its latest smartwatch that further expands Samsung’s wearable watches. With the new Gear S3 joining Gear Fit2 and Gear S2, Samsung's new smartwatch is inspired by traditional timepieces and the art of watchmaking, the Gear S3 combines timeless design with the latest in mobile technology, including LTE and Bluetooth connectivity, mobile payments, IP68 water resistance, and built-in GPS.

The brand new Gear S3 will be available in two bold designs: frontier and classic. The Gear S3 frontier features a sporty look with an enduring style that blends form and function and the Samsung classic keeps things minimal while fusing design with cutting-edge technology. With both Gear S3 frontier and classic, users can customize the Always On circular UX to complement their personal style. The Gear S3 is compatible with standard 22mm watchbands, so consumers can easily make a switch to match any outfit or special occasion. With built-in GPS functionality on both the frontier and classic, users can accurately monitor daily fitness activities, while the Alti/barometer and Speedometer allow users to track everything from distance traveled to sudden changes in weather. The Gear S3’s built-in speaker activates voice messaging and the ability listen to music on the go.

With the Gear S3, Samsung continues the UI innovation that defines its wearables portfolio. With just one rotation of the bezel, Gear S3 users can answer or reject calls and access other key functions. By writing or drawing on the display, messages automatically convert to texts and emojis. Users can also create short reminders and to-do lists to manage even the most hectic schedules with the Reminders application.

The Gear S3 will be available later this year at major retailers, including Best Buy, Amazon, Macy’s and Samsung.com, as well as wireless providers. Availability and pricing will be announced by Samsung very soon.
