Samsung’s new Gear S3 watches are IP68 water-resistant. However, Gear S3 frontier in India doesn’t support 4G LTE like it does abroad, but it does come with military standard durability certification.

Both Gear S3 smartwatches have GPS and built-in speaker to let people take calls from the watch itself. The watches also come with the S Health app, Speedometer and Altimeter/barometer apps that help track day-to-day fitness activities. Gear S3 smartwatches also support MST payment capabilities, which means that users can tap or swipe their debit or credit card on the watch and then make mobile payments using it. However since Samsung Pay is not available in India yet, this won’t be of much concern to users here.
