Some things regarding the Gear S3
1. suppose you are disconnected from the phone (completely); upon reconnection it would be nice to be notified of any notifications that arrived in the mean time on the phone (even a generic "you have missed notifications").
(this happens to me at work, when I move away from my desk)
2. you always see the last notification; a history of them would be useful (there are 3rd party apps for some things)
3. custom vibration patterns for different notifications: now, if you are walking, you don't know from the vibration if a message arrives or if SHealth is giving a reward. The former are IMO more important than the latter. A different pattern for e.g. SHealth and others would already be a start, but ideally it could be that you select the pattern for each app that you allow to send notifications. (in cold winter weather, with the watch tucked under a sweater, jacket and then some gloves, quickly checking the watch is not straight forward, so knowning when it is something that may be of interest without having to look at it is helpful :-))
4. Support for WPA-Enterprise authentication
5. in SHealth: download the track of a run or walk
6. in SHealth: an activity that just tracks position/pressure/altitude without necessary being a health activity (and combined with 5.), so you can use it as a gps logger.
7. Some apps/widgets use position information, but cannot take it from the watch. I think the use of "current location" in the weather widget and sunrise/sunset times require the location function from the phone (why not from the watch?), it would be nicer if it were more standalone. If not, at least a more clear specification when the gps of the phone is needed and when the gps of the watch can be used.
8. intergration with the Gear 360 action camera (use the watch as a user interface for it, no phone needed)
Lastly, the necessary software for the Gear S3 is quite big, to the point that I'm now looking for a new phone (8 GB just does not cut it - not such a big deal, the current phone was rather low-end). It would be nice if it could be moved to an SD card (though I can understand that there are performance reasons why this might not be possible)...
I'm also missing a bit of apps related to the GPS: The "HereWeGo" app does not show up in my Galaxy app store and third party apps are limited. Don't get me wrong, I really like the Gear S3 and I am aware that in other platforms where there are many apps there are many useless apps (so the number of available apps is not really a criterion), but it sometimes feels that the available software is lagging behind on the hardware.
