Awesome Watch

It's an awesome watch, but won't stop trying to sync Samsung wallet all day everyday. I don't even have Samsung wallet set up and I deleted the app and yet an unclearable Samsung wallet syncing notification pops up many times a day. It's driving me crazy.

good input device or for children

It's a very good device. It has a battery that lasts long enough, and the AI-regulated power management helps. However, if you're looking for a battery you don't have to worry about charging daily (every two days if you activate battery saver mode), check out the Galaxy Watch Ultra or the Galaxy Watch Classic. It bothers me that It bothers me that there are two apps to do the same thing, but that can be fixed with a software update. The gestures are a bit complicated to execute, so one or two sensors are somewhat slow, although I'm not sure if these gestures work better with the Galaxy Ring. The screen is simply beautiful; there's nothing to improve in that regard. I would recommend this watch more for people who don't go out much or who already have a very specific routine, like going for occasional runs or going to the gym. Connectivity is quite smooth if you have devices from the same brand, although I don't have One UI 8 for personal reasons, it works excellently with One UI 7 (based on my experience with the Samsung Galaxy S21 series). I love how easily they connect to the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro without having to disconnect the phone first. Samsung's modes and routines work better, however, they still glitch occasionally, although that might be due to their configuration. As for customization... well, there are a few things that could be improved, and I'd like the icons to be a bit larger.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Galaxy watch 8 battery disappoint
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: Jassy
Expertise:Intermediate
really like all the features — they make my workday so much easier. However, the battery life is disappointing. It doesn’t even last through an 8-hour shift, which is a big downside for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am enjoying my Galaxy watch 8. There's only one problem. The battery needs to be charged more often and the battery drains more quickly. That being said, I am glad that I upgraded.
I would recommend this to a friend!
