Gear S3 India launch confirmed for January 10

Watch

We exclusively reported last month that Samsung was going to launch the Gear S3 in India come January 2017. The smartwatch is already out in most major markets including but not limited to the United States, South Korea and China. Samsung didn't really say anything about the Gear S3 India launch last year but it has now sent out invites to a press event on January 10 in India where it's going to launch the Gear S3.

The Gear S3 is certainly the best smartwatch that Samsung has ever made. Consumer response has been good in the markets where the Gear S3 has already been released and Samsung would be expecting a similar response in India.

The press invite drops a subtle hint that the event is going to be all about the Gear S3 even if it doesn't outright say it. Samsung is going to launch both the Gear S3 classic and the Gear S3 frontier in India. Pricing and availability information will obviously be confirmed in the coming week. If you've been thinking about picking on up, you should really check out our reviews of the Gear S3 classic and the Gear S3 frontier.
