Features By Joshua Vergara. Size and Display Compared to the standard Gear S2, the Gear S3 Classic is thicker, heavier and has a larger screen than its predecessor. Software The software experience on the Gear S3 is the same as that found on the Gear S2, except you can now rotate the bezel to accept or dismiss calls and there are a few minor visual changes as well.

And while you can get away with mixing up your straps for different occasions, there's no denying the fact that the S2 generally offers a sleeker look.
One of the strong points in design, and something which has helped both distinguish themselves from the rest of the pack, is the rotating bezel, allowing for nifty movement around the watch without getting that screen grubby.
This works the same way on both devices, but we were even more grateful for its powers on the S2 due to the smaller screen. And though this feature is now supported through Android Wear 2. As well as the bezel, you'll also have the same two buttons on every S2 and S3 model — 'back' at two o'clock and 'home' at four o'clock. For our money, all the watches in this collection are very solid designs. We still prefer the more svelte look of the Gear S2 range, but those hunting for a hulking, outdoor option will be more than happy with the look of the Gear S3 Frontier.
This is a fairly simple matchup to judge, since the Gear S3 is essentially a more advanced iteration of what the S2 offered. That said though, it doesn't manage to take the next step in every single area. Taking durability as an example, the Frontier's IP68 water rating — which allows you to submerge it in water of up to 1. This means that neither model is capable of tracking your dips in the pool, unfortunately, but they should both survive a trip in the shower.
In typical Samsung style, the displays on both are also up there with the very best in the game. Despite offering a small 1. The S3 offers the same resolution, albeit with a density of ppi, thanks to that larger, 1.
And with the company going into battle with its own software through both of these devices, you're dealt the same card in terms of support. When the S2 first dropped, this was probably our biggest gripe with the device. Things have improved through the newer generation, with Samsung claiming there are more than 10, apps available for you to access from the Gear companion phone app.
This way, music will have more body, and sounds are distributed to the left and right. Because the speakers are at the bottom of the S2, the sound will come towards you from one direction, as opposed to the S3. The S3 distinguishes itself through High Dynamic Range. This means the S3 screen has a billion colors at its disposal, as opposed to the colors of the S2. This S Pen features pressure levels, which means you can use it more accurately than your fingers.
That way, you can edit photos and videos to the smallest detail before sharing them on social media. A useful extra function is the option to use the S Pen to make notes on the screen while the tablet is in standby mode. That way, you can always make a quick note. Want to watch movies and series in the highest possible quality? Both tablets are suitable for managing your social media channels. If you're also planning to use heavier apps like navigation and games, the extra memory and the newer processor will help to make this run as smoothly as possible.
