I bought mine in the UAE and it is covered by Samsung warranty with no issues, Go figure.
Anyway... The battery with always on will last 2 - 3days dependant on the watch face
On full brightness with always on disabled I get about 3.5 days out it .
Another point is that the straps are changeable I bought a 13.99 metal strap on Amazon and use that and I think it looks smart.

I have been looking at getting a metal strap same colour as the watch but not sure which to take a punt on. Any chance of a link to the one you have recommended? Cheers

I've bought one. I checked other sellers and further down the list was Amazon. Sold by and fulfilled by Amazon. It came in at 270 with some discounts I had fron prime day. Arriving tomorrow. I was looking at the Huawei watch w2 4g that's £279 but the looks put me off.

Just noticed that Samsung is doing a free strap and additional wireless charging dock on Gear S3 purchase at the moment: http://www.samsung.com/uk/offer/freegears3strap/
It's a shame that Amazon is not listed as one of their Participating Retailers though....

As stated before in the original description, all orders fulfilled by Amazon are UAE imports, they are not UK and does not have UK warranty.
Sold and dispatched by Amazon are UK models.

Fulfilled by amazone but, I did ask the seller first and they told me it was Samsung UK warranty. Very naughty. Anyway, literally was back at the post office within 30 minutes of it arriving - that I paid extra for (before 1pm).
There are some appearing on Amazon that are opened. How do you know if those have the UK warranty?
Thanks

Did you order from Amazon or was it fulfilled by Amazon?

Checked with Samsung and not covered so it's gone back.

Just wondering if somebody can help. I've received an order from Amazon for this watch but the Model number ends in SG. It's not a UK version and from what I can see does not come up when entering on the UK Samsung website. Am I therefore correct it is not covered by Samsung UK warranty?
Thanks.

You looked at the wrong place, have a look at the pictures shown above

You can't read the pictures on here, the resolution is too low :disappointed:
I clicked the Amazon thing on the right saying about prime day and when I looked carefully it was actually fulfilled by Amazon not actually Amazon.

When I looked at this offer yesterday it was showing as "Fulfilled by Amazon" on the prime day deal.
Will be interested to know whether UK or UAE ones turn up.

You have to click the prime day deal button on the product page then it shows correct price.

Damn... Should have waited. Got mine for £240 but its a third party seller fulfilled by Amazon. So it is guaranteed for 1 year then I guess it won't be covered due to it being foreign

Won't be covered but if it's within 30 days you can return for a full refund

With the screen always on, how long does the battery last?
Also, when was this first released?

Does this work with most android phones? Or do you need a Samsung phone?

Got one a few weeks ago. Run it on IOS. Yes you lose some of the capability but still a great watch. Also a brainier getting this against the bland Apple Watch. My opinion of corse.

Super hot given mine was £350 back in January. I absolutely love it as it tracks everything I need and imo there's enough apps available suited to the small screen. Once they finally sort out being able to pay for things contactlessly with it, it'll be perfect

had this since March and it's great.. 4-day battery life is a godsend compared to android wear watches.

Wish you could use all the features this watch has on ios. A much better looking watch than the Apple Watch imo. Voted hot

Perfect timing as returned the Marketplace one yesterday after discovering it was a grey import and wouldn't be covered by warranty in UK
Opening post
This is a UK model, not a grey UAE import which you would get from other sellers on Amazon.
