Great features and great looking
on October 6, 2025
Posted by: Lowbacca11
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 is fast, sleek, and easily the best smartwatch Samsung has made yet. Everything about it feels refined — from the fluid speed of navigation to the crisp, modern design that looks great on the wrist. The new features genuinely add value rather than clutter, and having Galaxy AI and Google Gemini right there on your wrist is surprisingly useful; it makes quick searches, reminders, and smart responses feel natural and instant. It’s a perfect blend of performance and style, and for once, it feels like a smartwatch that truly keeps up with you.

Watch is Great Fitness Tracker
on October 6, 2025
Posted by: DrWhoToo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product easily allows me to track my fitness. I have been using it for a couple of weeks and it has helped me stay on track.
I love being able to see my priority notifications without always having to carry my phone around.
The ability to customize the watchface, notifications, and apps is a plus. Due to its popularity, I can easily get accessories to customize it further.
I haven't tried the AI features yet, but plan to.

Almost 5 stars

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love all the new health/fitness tracking features on the watch and everything it does.
The only disappointment is how often it randomly decides to stop showing notifications on the watch and it has to rebooted. At best once a week, at worst it's multiple times a day.
But other than that I love everything about it.
I have not tried any of the Galaxy AI

Another Watch Win for Samsung!
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: COHiker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This watch is great and I absolutely love the OS where you can scroll down to access apps. I even use my hiking app on here! It connects via Bluetooth easily to my phone, no problems! Can water lock it and remotely use your phone camera. While I love the feel of the band update to where it's only textured on the inside now, I do prefer where the band also moves up, not just down - which was a change from the 7. The battery life is pretty good as well - depending on what apps you use! I'll keep buying Samsung!

The battery life is great for my use. I got the 44mm Instead of 40mm & like it better. Very pleased with it so far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is a Pretty Cool Watch!
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: TechMom85
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't owned a Samsung Watch in a very long time and boy have they come a LONG way! This is my honest review of the Galaxy Watch 8
Right out of the box my first impression was "Wow, this watch is BIG!" I am a petite woman and usually go for the smaller watches and step trackers, like fitbit. However, after playing around and learning everything this watch can do - it makes sense. For instance, the customizable watch faces would not work well with a small screen. Which actually is one of my favorite features about this watch.
The sound quality is pretty good, as well. I have made and received calls with no problems hearing the person on the other end and they had no problems hearing me. I don't use this feature much, because I don't want to be THAT PERSON who talks loudly on calls in public spaces. IYKYK. But it is a useful feature to have, nonetheless. I usually use it to take calls while I'm cooking. It totally beats having to stop what I am doing to run and find my phone.
I really am enjoying this watch. I am still learning it, and I am having fun with it. The only cons that I can think of is the battery life doesn't last as long as I would hope, but I also am used to smaller watches that are just basic and don't do everything that this watch does. And I do wish that it was a little bit smaller, but I do like the fact that I can change the band and that is probably what I will do.
All in all, I rate it a 4/5.

Great Watch BUT Pulse Rate is Way, Way Off...
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: CatMom99
This is a great watch with lots of bells and whistles. I like all that it does, except for the heart rate monitor is way, way off. My actual heart rate was around 70 during a relaxation yoga class, and the watch alerted me saying my heart rate was 180!! NOT!! It kept showing I was around 125 to 130, when in fact I was between 60 to 70. Then all of a sudden it showed 63 and started reading correctly. It did the same thing yesterday when I was doing weight training... pulse rate showed way higher that it actually was. Everything else is working great thought. Watch is also very comfortable to wear.
