[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To star, the new design is completely different, bold, yet slick, minimalist, and beautiful. It doesn't look sporty if you don't want it to, use a more casual wrist band and you'll a have an even more beautiful watch. New features included the BPM, to monitor your blood pressure. Sensors are definitely more sensitive to reading your sings, this you get a more accurate result.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 has honestly exceeded my expectations. The battery life is excellent — I can go through busy days without constantly worrying about charging it. The AI features are also surprisingly useful and make the watch feel much smarter and more personalized. From health tracking to notifications and everyday convenience, everything feels smooth and intuitive. Samsung really did a great job combining performance, style, and smart technology into one device.

This product is really useful.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Samsung device is really useful for me to get a variety of tasks done on a daily basis. The phone's features are also great. They allow you to operate apps quite smoothly. Galaxy AI is also very helpful with searching and organizing information, and to write text for messages and emails.
The product helps me easily access entertainment, and crucial information like updates from my doctor and any changes to my meds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A lot of times it does not receive calls or text. Sometimes only watch rings and not phone and phone is in my pocket. Need that 500 gift card to upgrade obviously. Or maybe I should go to Motorola fold 7 or should I just get the Motorola fold that is coming out and wait for their phone and watch

Response from Samsung USBy R&R Team, May 26, 2026
Greetings NavySeabee, Thanks for taking the time to share your sentiments with us regarding your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8. We understand how important it is to stay connected with life while not being tied down to any devices. It sounds like the wearable app is configured to mute your phone while connected or that your phone's volume settings are too low. To fix this, adjust your notification settings in the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone: Open the Wearable app > Settings > Notifications > Phone notifications on watch. Change this setting from "Smart device selection" to "Always show on both". Make sure your phone isn't set to "Mute" or "Vibrate Only". Open your phone's Settings > Sound and vibration > Volume and turn your ringtone volume up. Please take a moment to check out the resources linked below to help resolve what you've described. Let us know if you have any questions or if you would like further assistance afterward by contacting Samsung Support. Thank you for being a steadfast Samsung customer. - Debra

Love the watch but it had quirks
on May 25, 2026
Posted by: TiredDad
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 is by far the most comfortable Galaxy watch to date. The new design is certainly a little odd, the shelf creates a dust magnet but it grows on you. The new galaxy AI features are fun but some are better than others. No matter what I do i can't increase my antioxidant index but I'm not sure how accurate it is anyway. What I really love is the AI running coach. I'm not exactly an avid runner and tips it gives actually help that I've been able to increase my score. The feature set overall is great but the watch randomly doesn't get notifications.
