It is really complex to decide which is the best smartwatch of the year among all the variety that we can find, but there is no doubt that one of the most powerful is the Samsung Gear S3.
This one, one of the most advanced on the market, is being one of the best sellers of the year. It can be affirmed that we are not facing a coincidence, since the Korean brand works hard every season, in order to surprise the user of these watches.
To see whether or not the Gear S3 is the most efficient smartwatch out there today, let's now look at its specs versus its main rivals. But first, if you want to know more Samsung watches, visit T-Mobile and find offers like the recent Gear S2.
We start the review with the Gear S3, whose classic circular design mimics a conventional watch. As it is always on, when we are not using it we can take a look to see the time. Its screen is a 1,3-inch Super AMOLED with a resolution of 260 × 360 pixels, and to interact with it we can use both its touch interface and its rotating bezel.
The Asus ZenWatch 3 is similar, because with a traditional watch design, it has a 1,39-inch AMOLED screen with 400 × 400 pixels. Another that shares the same appearance is the Moto 360, but in its basic model it has a 1,37-inch screen of the IPS type with worse contrast and brightness.
Other smart watches like the LG G Watch or the Apple Watch, unlike those mentioned, have a more modern looking rectangular screen design. The first of them would be the perfect device for those who do not intend to use it excessively and are looking for simplicity at a good price, while the one from Apple would be for those who are looking for superior quality and the prestige of the brand. The LG has a low-res screen and can't monitor heart rate, but it's solid and lasts half an hour up to a meter under water. For its part, the Apple Watch is also waterproof and boasts a good flexible OLED screen of 390 × 312 pixels and 1,3 inches in its cheapest model.
Regarding productivity, although all of the above are similar, let's look at the battle between the Gear S3 and the Apple Watch. The first, which uses an Exynos 7270 processor, has 768 MB of RAM and has Tizen as its operating system. In addition, it adds the possibility of LTE connection.
The Apple one, which does not have this connection, has the watchOS 2 operating system, 512 MB of RAM and an S1 processor. Analyzing these data, the winner would be Samsung's smart watch, although the situation would be different if we compared it with the new version of Apple's, the Watch Series 2.
Finally, based on your experience with all these digital watches, which one would you choose as the best this year?
