Samsung launched Gear S3 classic and Gear S3 frontier smartwatches in India at the beginning of this year. Now, the company has launched three new Gear S3 watchfaces – Outdoor, Travel and Sports.
The Outdoor watchfaces come with an altimeter at three o’clock, a barometer at nine, a date and weather indication at six, and a sunrise/sunset display that arches over the screen. It allows users to preset altitude and atmospheric figures that, if exceeded, will cause the screen to flash red. The Outdoor edition also features a dedicated night mode, and, like the other watchfaces on this list, is offered in multiple colors, so users may customize their screen to their liking.
Next up is Travel watchface aimed at business travelers and tourists better manage their trips. It offers customizable dual-time indications for two countries. The currency display at 12 o’clock offers easy access to the exchange rate. The My Journey indication rounding out the screen at six o’clock allows you to keep track of distance traveled, and, when tapped, will open a detailed map to help you navigate a new city.
Lastly, Sports watchface features a stopwatch at three o’clock and a speedometer at nine, beneath side-by-side displays for the user’s current heart rate and calories burned. It also provides easy access to My Journey at the bottom of the screen, to help users map out runs and rides. It includes a built-in alert function, designed to help users keep an eye on their exertion and exercise safely.
The Gear S3’s new Outdoor, Travel and Sports watchfaces are currently available for download in the Gear App Store.
