I have a hot take: I honestly think the Galaxy Watch 3 is a great smartwatch, but it’s just so hampered by its price. Luckily, Samsung has reduced the cost of having the Galaxy Watch 3 significantly (at the time of the Ticwatch E3’s release). But is a price reduction its saving grace? Let me …
Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 vs Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 3 The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 finally meets its match when it faces up to the Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 3. Mobvoi’s Ticwatch Pro 3 is a fantastic smartwatch that really blazes the trail for the Wear OS system. In January 2020, I would still be complaining about …
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and the Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 3 GPS are excellent smartwatches that are some of my favourite smartwatches. As an Android phone user, I can’t use Apple Watches, which is a pity. I really liked the Apple Watch Series 5 and the new Apple Watch Series 6. They’re just very well …
Apple Watch Series 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Watch3 The Samsung Galaxy Watch3 is a very good smartwatch that I really like, but if I could pick between the two, I’d go for the Apple Watch Series 5. Why? Because on most aspects, the Apple Watch’s software is still superior to Samsung. For example, Apple’s Siri …
Do you remember the song PPAP? It goes “I have a pen, I have an apple…” The Galaxy Watch3 is like that. The singer grunts, “Hng!” and then says “apple pen” In the Galaxy Watch3’s, you have the Samsung Galaxy Watch on one hand and the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 on the other. HNG! Samsung …
My first ever smartwatch was a Samsung Gear S3 Frontier, hence when it came time to review the Samsung Galaxy Watch, I was completely confused. Am I seeing a doppelganger? A clone? A pirated version? When I turn on both watches, it confirms that I have two different watches because they have different start-up screens. …
Don’t let reports of lower than expected smartwatches fool you. The Samsung Gear S3 is a popular smartwatch and it’s flying off the shelves. I called/visited 6 local stores in a large city in an effort to get my hands on Samsung’s latest is the Samsung Gear S3 (I got the Classic model… my Frontier …
I struggle with the Frontier for one very big reason and that reason is it’s not fully waterproof. This really bugs me because it’s Samsung’s outdoor rugged watch. I understand and am fine with the Gear S3 Classic not being fully waterproof. The Classic is for everyday wear and while it would be nice for …
The last time I regularly wore a watch, it could only tell me the time, date and act as a stopwatch. Mine didn’t have a calculator unlike the cool kids of 1998. Fast forward 22 years and smartwatches have made access to information so much easier and convenient. When I got my first smartwatch, I …
Fresh from wearing the Fitbit Sense, jumping back into wearing the Suunto 7 and Galaxy Watch3 really felt like I doubled my weight in an instant. These are two heavyweight watches when compared to anything Fitbit puts out. Like The Undertaker versus Shawn Michaels (I am dating myself, yes.) There is a little bit of …
The Fitbit Versa 2 was my first introduction to a sports-focused smartwatch as was Samsung’s good old Gear S3 Frontier. With the release of the Galaxy Watch3, I wonder if the Fitbit Versa 2 is a bit outranked and outplayed by the amazing features the Galaxy Watch3 has. The Galaxy Watch3 has some elite level …
In the summer of 2020, I wore the Garmin Fenix 6 almost exclusively over the months of June and July. I trusted it. I knew it would last and last. It had a long battery life and a hardiness to it that would allow it to take bumps and shunts. I also had the Sapphire …
The top of the line Ticwatch Pro is the best Ticwatch you can currently buy (until the Ticwatch Pro 3 comes out). It’s the same story with the Samsung Galaxy Watch3. They’re both great smartwatches and both have premium features. The Ticwatch Pro is priced much more reasonably than the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 and that’s …
This is truly a battle of two watches from opposite spectrums of purpose (or as programmers say, “use case”). When you buy smartwatches, just remember that when you see an orange strap, it means it’s a specialized smartwatch meant for sports. This is exactly what the Vantage V is. And when you see a leather …
The last century has brought us a lot of wisdom. One of them was that when some politician tells you that they’re going into a “war to end all wars,” it’s a lie. The second is “Mo’ Money Mo’ Problems.” To some extent, the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 reflects this. It’s an expensive watch — probably …
These two watches are miles apart. In terms of design, the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 looks much more “solid”. “Solid” being that it feels heavier, it looks shinier. The two buttons on it have a ribbed surface. The screen is sharp and bright. It also has a rotating bezel. I think if I had a choice …
Feelings can lead us on a path that can sometimes be irrational. And if you placed the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 beside the Ticwatch E2, you might feel that the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 is a much more refined smartwatch than the Ticwatch E2.

OK, this is not a fair comparison. We’re talking the most premium Samsung smartwatch versus the most entry-level of Fossil’s smartwatches. But comparing the Fossil Sport Smartwatch with the Samsung Galaxy Watch3 really proves the economics theory of diminishing returns.

The Galaxy Watch3 came out at a time when the Fossil Gen 5 Carlyle just got a new update which patches the gaps in features which Google’s Wear OS has. The Gen 5 is a great watch. I have always had the greatest respect for it. It’s innovative, fast and still is my favourite Wear …
On the whole, Samsung makes great smartwatches and I believe they will continue to do so. My first Samsung smartwatch was the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier. It was a great watch with the rotating bezel. The bezel is an amazing Samsung innovation. Then I got the Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Watch Active2 and now the Galaxy …
