It's soo smooth, the UI is very responsive and even features like health and messages are more accurate over my previous watch6. Definitely worth the price. The battery last me over 2 days no charge even with my AOD on.
Love the features of the watch but not so mich the flat bottom and square shape, seems to fit more uncomfortable then my round 7.. also i dont like the band on the 8 also ive always been a m/l band size and they were great the new m/l the buckle doesnt fit to the center of my wrist is pushed over almost to the side of my wrist
Has been great so far. Connects to internet independently, monitors my fitness activities, fairly easy to use. Battery life better than old watch although still needs charged at least ever other day with the way I have it set up.
Coming from the Galaxy 6 Classic, I really miss the rotating bezel. It made navigating the watch easy. Other than that, not much change from the previous.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wearing the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 for a bit now, and I’m loving it. The sleek “cushion” design feels light and comfy—even when I sleep with it on. The bright AMOLED display is super easy to read, even outdoors.
Fitness and health tracking are solid—sleep tracking is spot-on, and features like stress monitoring and the antioxidant index are cool extras, though sometimes a little finicky.
One thing I wish was better: battery life. Most days it barely lasts over a single full day, especially with Always-On Display active, and charging is pretty slow.
Overall, it's a stylish, comfortable watch with great features—especially if you're already in the Samsung/Android world—but be ready to charge it !
Really good watch..been using all day..more battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the new Galaxy 8 to upgrade my sensors and capabilities from the Galaxy 6. Things seem to work as well as the Galaxy 6 plus it gets you the advanced metrics that were unavailable in the Galaxy 6. Looks very nice and sleek with no major differences to me in functionality. Only issue I've had so far occurred today when I was running. The face would not turn on around 1.5 miles in to check my status and progress. I ran a full mile until I could regain function, in which i had to take the watch off my wrist while running for the screen to turn on. It paused my progress so I did not get a record of my run. First time using in for a run and hope it doesn't continue this issue in the future.
