Watch 8 review

The watch is good. Haven't found a lot to use it for yet but starting to figure it out. Biggest complaint is the watch band. I have a big wrist and it's too short. I can buckle it but just barely. Crazy that large was not available in any of the styles.

Lightweight & Feature-Packed w/ Mom Flaw

I absolutely love my Galaxy Watch! Everything works great and functions exactly as it should. The features are amazing, and I really appreciate how simple and user-friendly it is. It’s also super lightweight... I barely even feel it on my wrist throughout the day.
I use it daily and genuinely enjoy all the features it offers. The only reason I’m giving it four stars instead of five is because it doesn’t properly track steps when I’m pushing a stroller. As a mom who goes on daily walks, that’s a big downside for me. I’ve noticed I have to put the watch in my pocket or even in my shoe for it to register my steps, which is definitely inconvenient.
Other than that, I’m very happy with it and would still recommend it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have owned this watch for several watches and really like it. The battery holds well as long as you doing use the AOD.

Not exactly an improvement

The new band is easy to attach but won't lay flat for charging. The outer edge makes the watch look clunky compared to prior models. Functionality is great. I like the new tiles format and that the watch face options are the same.

Lots more health monitoring than the Watch 5

I upgraded to the Watch 8 from the Watch 5 primarily for the additional health monitoring available. So far, I am very happy with this watch as the battery lasts longer and I have more insights as to my health.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So this was a gift to someone special. The design is excellent but I think it is too huge or big on the wrist of a lady.

So far, loving this watch. I have had the 5 and the 7, but the 8 is the lightest and most comfortable yet.

Functional, but short battery life

I love all the features of this watch with one exception, the battery life. I have done everything that I can think of to extend it and I still cannot get more than 36 hours off of a full charge.
I would recommend this to a friend!
