I've been using the Galaxy Watch3 for a few months and was impressed with its performance. I also had a great experience purchasing the Galaxy Watch3 on Back Market. The watch was in excellent condition, and it arrived quickly and securely. I would recommend Back Market for anyone looking to purchase a refurbished smartwatch.

It's a great watch, in great shape. Unfortunately the battery life is not good, and it takes a long time to charge in comparison to my Garmin watch. I need to charge about every 1.5 days when the heart monitor is set to track throughout the day as opposed to intermittently. Everything else about it is what I was looking for and more.

So unlike a lot of the folks on here, I bought this to use with an iPhone. Yep, I did that…but I just wanted to see the experience of Tizen on iOS. Honestly, I’m very impressed with how this watch compares to my Apple Watch. Basic functions work just fine, and fitness works as expected and very well. Now for the Back Market experience: Exceptional. It’s really hard to believe this is a refurbished device, it’s practically like new. Not a scratch on it, and in perfect working order. The battery is in tip top shape and I’m getting tremendous use out of this bad boy. This was my test to try out Back Market, and I’m very impressed. You’ll absolutely continue to have me as a customer. Thanks you guys and good on ya for providing this service :-)

Love everything about this watch and purchase experience (even down to the witty customer service emails). The watch is in great condition and the Back Market gang have made me feel as if they "actually" care about my satisfaction and exceeding expectations. Samsung watches are the best smart watches period. They were the first and they remain the best in category.

I got the lowest cost watch and I am super happy. The watch itself works as if brand new and the band is super comfy! The only con was the watch had a couple scraps on the outside but that was to be expected since it's in fair condition. Definitely recommend! 10/1

My watch arrived a day early, has the tiniest sign of wear around the home and back buttons (I went for good quality), and it runs like a champ! The only thing I would like to point out is that the battery life isn't the greatest(I have to charge everyday), but this is a 3 year old watch and I track about 4 hours of walks a day so it's what I expected for how I use it! Overall, I am very impressed and would buy again!!

I received my watch in about a week after order. The watch was secured in a nice box with my packing slip. I love the ease of use that the watch has. There were no major scratches on the screen. The watch was very easy to connect to my Samsung Note20 Ultra and the prompts walked you through every step of the connection process. I have I have not received my warranty yet, but hope it is on its way. I will pass the site on to others.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 combines premium design with comprehensive health monitoring and the intuitive physical rotating bezel for effortless navigation. Choosing a refurbished smartwatch gives you access to Samsung's wellness tracking in a classic watch aesthetic while making an environmentally conscious decision. Find the elegant smartwatch that balances health insights with timeless style.

What are the key features of the Galaxy Watch 3?

Physical rotating bezel: smooth, tactile rotating bezel for intuitive navigation through menus and apps
Premium stainless steel design: refined aesthetic with leather and metal band options for traditional watch appearance
Advanced health monitoring: ECG capability, blood pressure tracking, blood oxygen monitoring, and continuous heart rate
Fall detection: automatically detects hard falls and can call emergency contacts if you're unresponsive
VO2 max and running analysis: advanced fitness metrics for athletes tracking performance improvements
Sleep tracking: monitors sleep stages, blood oxygen during sleep, and provides sleep score analysis
Built-in GPS: accurate outdoor tracking for running, cycling, and walking without your phone
5ATM water resistance: swim-proof design rated to 50 meters with swim tracking modes
Available in 41mm and 45mm: Super AMOLED display with always-on option fits different wrist sizes
Cross-platform compatibility: works with both Android (Android 5.0+) and iOS (iOS 9.0+)

What are the differences between a refurbished and a used Galaxy Watch 3?

A used Galaxy Watch 3 is resold without professional verification or warranty. The rotating bezel mechanism can develop issues from wear, and health sensors may lose calibration accuracy. Water resistance seals can degrade from swimming and showering. A refurbished Galaxy Watch 3 from Back Market has been thoroughly tested by trusted refurbishers following our Quality Charter.

Each watch undergoes comprehensive inspection of rotating bezel smoothness and functionality, ECG capability, blood pressure monitoring, blood oxygen sensor accuracy, heart rate monitoring performance, fall detection sensors, GPS accuracy, display condition, battery health, water resistance seals, and charging capability. Every device comes with a minimum 1-year warranty and 30-day returns. You get reliable health tracking and premium design without the new price, while extending the life of quality technology.

Who is the Galaxy Watch 3 best for?

The Galaxy Watch 3 serves several types of users particularly well:

People wanting traditional watch aesthetics: stainless steel case and classic design look more like luxury watches than typical smartwatches
Users who love physical controls: the rotating bezel provides satisfying, precise navigation superior to touch-only interfaces
Health-conscious individuals: ECG, blood pressure, blood oxygen, and comprehensive wellness tracking monitor cardiovascular health
iPhone and Android users: cross-platform compatibility gives you flexibility other smartwatches don't offer
Runners tracking performance: VO2 max estimation, running analysis, and training insights help optimize endurance training
Older users or those with medical conditions: fall detection provides safety monitoring during daily activities
Budget-conscious buyers: as Samsung's previous flagship, it offers premium features at accessible refurbished prices

Galaxy Watch 3 vs Galaxy Watch 4: which should you choose?

The Galaxy Watch 4 represents a significant platform shift from Tizen OS to Wear OS, bringing better app selection through the Google Play Store. The Watch 4 adds body composition analysis using bioelectrical impedance sensors—a feature the Watch 3 completely lacks. The Watch 4 uses a faster processor and charges more quickly. However, the Watch 4 dropped iPhone compatibility, working only with Android phones, while the Watch 3 works with both platforms.

The Watch 3's physical rotating bezel is absent on the standard Watch 4—you'd need the Watch 4 Classic for that tactile control. Both share ECG, blood pressure monitoring (after calibration), blood oxygen tracking, heart rate monitoring, GPS, and 5ATM water resistance. The Watch 3 runs Tizen OS, which is simpler and focused on health/fitness but has a smaller app ecosystem than Wear OS.

The Watch 3 has a more premium aesthetic with its stainless steel construction compared to the Watch 4's aluminum (unless you get the stainless steel Watch 4 Classic). Battery life is similar at 1-2 days on both. The Watch 3's cross-platform support is valuable if you might switch between iPhone and Android.

Choose the Watch 3 if you want the physical rotating bezel, premium stainless steel design, iPhone compatibility, or prefer the simpler Tizen interface at lower refurbished prices. Choose the Watch 4 if you want body composition tracking, broader app selection with Wear OS, and faster performance—but you'll need an Android phone.

Buy a refurbished Galaxy Watch 3 at the best price on Back Market

Back Market offers refurbished Galaxy Watch 3 models at competitive prices with verified premium design and health tracking. Each watch is:

Tested by trusted refurbishers: rotating bezel mechanism, ECG, blood pressure monitoring, GPS, and all health sensors verified working
Backed by warranty: minimum 1-year coverage protects your purchase
Returnable for 30 days: test it through daily use and workouts to experience the rotating bezel and ensure it meets your needs
Better for the environment: choosing refurbished reduces e-waste and extends the life of premium wearables

Browse different cosmetic grades from Premium (like-new condition) to Fair (fully functional with visible wear). Choose between 41mm and 45mm sizes and Bluetooth or LTE connectivity options. The stainless steel construction holds up exceptionally well—even Fair condition units typically show only minor surface scratches. Get Samsung's flagship health tracking with classic design at refurbished pricing.

Why is the rotating bezel on the Galaxy Watch 3 so popular?

The physical rotating bezel provides tactile, precise control that many users find superior to touch-only navigation. You can rotate through menus, apps, notifications, and settings without obscuring the screen with your finger. It works reliably when your hands are wet, sweaty, or wearing gloves—situations where touchscreens struggle. The satisfying clicking feedback makes navigation feel intuitive and premium. The bezel has become iconic in the Galaxy Watch line, and many users specifically choose models with physical bezels (Watch 3, Watch 4 Classic) over touch-only alternatives because of this control method.

Does the Galaxy Watch 3 work with iPhone?

Yes, the Galaxy Watch 3 works with iPhone (iOS 9.0 or later) through the Galaxy Watch app, though with some limitations. You get fitness tracking, notifications, heart rate monitoring, GPS, and basic health features. However, ECG and blood pressure monitoring don't work with iPhone due to regulatory restrictions—these features require an Android phone. You also can't respond to messages from the watch when paired with iPhone. The experience is better with Android phones, where all features work fully. If you have an iPhone and want complete smartwatch integration, the Apple Watch is a better choice. The Watch 3's iPhone compatibility is useful if you want Samsung's design and might switch to Android later.

Can I measure blood pressure on the Galaxy Watch 3?

Yes, but only with an Android phone. Blood pressure monitoring requires initial calibration with a traditional cuff-based blood pressure monitor. After calibration through the Samsung Health Monitor app, the watch can estimate blood pressure readings. You need to recalibrate every four weeks to maintain accuracy. This feature doesn't work with iPhone and is only available in certain countries due to regulatory requirements. The watch isn't a medical device and shouldn't replace proper medical monitoring, but it's useful for tracking trends and identifying changes worth discussing with your doctor.

What's the battery life on the Galaxy Watch 3?

Expect 1-2 days of battery life with typical use including always-on display, notifications, sleep tracking, and occasional workouts. The 45mm model lasts slightly longer than the 41mm due to larger battery capacity. Heavy GPS use during long runs or bike rides drains the battery faster—continuous GPS tracking lasts roughly 7-9 hours. Disabling always-on display and reducing notification frequency can stretch battery closer to 2 days. Most users charge daily, similar to many smartwatches. The watch charges fully in about 2 hours using the included wireless charging dock.

Can I track swimming with the Galaxy Watch 3?

Yes, the watch is water-resistant to 50 meters (5ATM rating) and includes swim tracking for pool and open water swimming. Pool mode tracks laps, distance, stroke type, and SWOLF efficiency score. Open water mode uses GPS to track distance and route in lakes or oceans. Activate water lock mode before swimming to prevent accidental input. After swimming, you may need to dry the rotating bezel and speaker area. The watch handles recreational swimming well for fitness tracking and provides detailed metrics in Samsung Health.

Does the Galaxy Watch 3 have fall detection?

Yes, the Galaxy Watch 3 includes fall detection that uses motion sensors to identify when you've taken a hard fall. If the watch detects a fall and you don't respond within about 60 seconds, it can automatically call your emergency contacts and send them your location. You need to enable this feature in settings and designate emergency contacts. It provides valuable safety monitoring for older users, people with medical conditions, or during activities like cycling or hiking. False positives can occur with sudden movements, but the feature adds peace of mind.

What operating system does the Galaxy Watch 3 use?

The Galaxy Watch 3 runs Tizen OS, Samsung's proprietary operating system. Tizen is focused on health, fitness, and core smartwatch features with a clean, simple interface. The app selection is more limited than Wear OS or watchOS—you won't find as many third-party apps in the Galaxy Store. However, essential apps like Spotify, Strava, and popular fitness apps are available. Tizen is stable, battery-efficient, and well-optimized for Samsung's hardware. The Watch 4 and newer models switched to Wear OS, which has broader app support but isn't necessarily better for users who primarily want health tracking and basic smartwatch features.

Can I download music to the Galaxy Watch 3?

Yes, you can download playlists from Spotify Premium directly to the watch for phone-free listening with Bluetooth headphones. The watch has approximately 8GB of storage, with about 4GB available for music and apps after the operating system. You can also transfer your own music files through the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone. Spotify Premium subscription is required for offline downloads—free accounts can only control music playing on your phone. The music feature works well for running or workouts when you don't want to carry your phone.
