Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 45mm LTE (SM-R845)

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 is a long-awaited addition to the portfolio of smartwatches from the South Korean vendor, which happened in the climax of summer 2020.

The continuity of generations

With just one glance at the smartwatch, there is a clear continuity of generations — the model uses a popular trick with a round dial and a navigation bezel to simplify “campaigns” through the menu. A knurled turntable around the screen complements the touch-based tap controls. In general, the display of the wearable gadget is based on a Super AMOLED matrix, has a diagonal size of 1.4", shows a picture at a resolution of 360x360 pixels and is protected by Gorilla Glass DX.

"Smart" electronics

The above is true for the larger version of the watch — with a 45 mm dial. The model is also offered in a 41 mm case size. From now on, the “smart” electronics of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 measures the wearer’s heart rate, records sports training data (automatically detecting one of 120 types of activity), monitors stress levels and monitors sleep quality. From the ones unavailable at the start of sales, the built-in pulse oximeter (a sensor for measuring the level of blood oxygen saturation) and the ECG function (pending certification by the Ministry of Health) are of interest.

Maximum configuration

The LTE modification of the watch supports eSIM. Also on board is an increased amount of RAM (2 GB). Otherwise , the Exynos 9110 processor is responsible for the operation of the gadget, there is 8 GB of internal memory, the watch has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC. The decisive argument "for" — all-protected performance in accordance with the requirements of IP68 and MIL-STD-810G standards. Well, the traditional fly in the ointment in a large barrel of honey is the short battery life of the watch on a single charge of a 340 mAh battery.
