The Samsung Gear S3 is a Tizen-based circular smartwatch developed by Samsung Electronics. It was officially announced on August 31, 2016 and released on November 18, 2016.
The Gear S3 includes two models, the Classic and the Frontier. The Classic has a silver watch case and black leather band, while the Frontier has a black watch case and rubber band. Both are rated IP68 (water resistant) and have GPS, as well as heart rate monitor sensors. One notable feature is that the bezel ring rotates as part of the user interface, although users can also navigate by swiping the screen and/or using the two buttons on the side.
Upon the S3's release, the Spotify app was not integrated; however, as of December 19, 2016, Spotify does sync with the S3 watches.
