TECH: Samsung Gear S3 Pre-orders Open….. Sort Of!

0

Back at the start of September the tech world was attending & watching IFA2016 for the next big products for the commercial market.  One of the stand out announcements was the Samsung Gear S3.  Despite having a more masculine feel and target audience, it is set to be one of the best selling & looking items of wearable tech in 2016.

Gear S3 on Pre-Order

Earlier last week Samsung began sending out emails stating their latest smartwatch was now available for pre-order from 28th October.

However, it seems the demand has far exceeded expectations as it is now unavailable due to being out of stock!!  Which for just pre-orders is a bit strange, as you can still take orders and push the delivery back to suit manufacturing schedules etc.

So if you had your eye on either the Frontier or Classic for yourself or a gift this Xmas, it might be worth getting your name on the Samsung notifications list, so you are made aware when it is open to orders again.  You can opt out of any other marketing if you prefer.
