Samsung Gear S3 gets a firmware update in the US

The Samsung Gear S3 was released in the US nearly three weeks ago and so far, it appears to generate some positive responses. Just yesterday, it got a brand new official app – a speedometer that uses your GPS to give you real-time data on how fast you're moving. Now the latest Samsung smartwatch gets a new firmware update. It's a minor one, though.

The new update is 14.06 MB in size and it features two tweaks. The first changes the time zone in the World Clock app for a portion of Russia. The second is labeled as “Improved GPS performance” for S Health and Golf Navi.

We're sure that Samsung is working on even more improvements that will be released soon, and we hope that Samsung Pay support for the Google Pixel is one of them.
