Samsung unveiled the Gear S3 classic and Gear S3 frontier at a dedicated event on August 31, and now a little more than a month later the watches are available to pre-order from Best Buy in Canada. Both models carry a price tag of $469.99 (CAD), but those who place an order are eligible for a 10 percent discount if they punch in the coupon code ‘WTPREORDER‘ at the checkout.

Choosing between the Gear S3 classic and Gear S3 frontier may be a little tricky as they each feature slightly different specifications. Aside from the obvious aesthetic changes, the latter packs identical internals to the formal, in addition to 3G/LTE support and an integrated loudspeaker which enables users to both place and receive calls while on the go, without having to have a smartphone connected.
