[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have found that most of the Galaxy AI features were really already part of Watch 7. I'm still learning the differences. It's nice that it's thinner than my previous watches. The outer ring of the Galaxy watch 8, is very bulky in its look, but still comfortable. I don't like the changed the way the bands attach (it's easy to do), but I have tons of bands that no longer fit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased with my upgraded watch. I had the Galaxy Watch 5 and have just upgraded to the Galaxy Watch 8. The watch and screen are bigger and yet its more comfortable to wear than the previous version. I use my watch during the day while Im working and while I sleep at night. I love the health insights I receive and is my main purpose of using the device. Using Galaxy AI on this watch is super simple and has been very fun to see what it can do!

Stylish convenient watch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my new Galaxy watch mostly, because it is incorporated into my every day life used for tracking my health and wellness.
I also use it for phone calls and messages, which is really helpful when I have accidentally left my phone behind at home, going out the door in a rush.
It is completely comfortable to wear and stylish. I loved having the option to choose the band size, color, and style that suits me.
The only negative aspect I have had on this watch is the battery life. Of course, running apps, especially ones that constantly run in the background, are going to be hard on a battery life but I feel like I shouldn't have to charge it every day especially more than I charge my cell phone. I'm sure over time this kink will get worked out.
Overall, I still love this watch and would recommend others to try it out when considering a new watch purchase.

It's amazing, what this watch can do!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this watch. I'll start with the only negative thing I can say about it, the battery life is terrible. Everything else about it is better than I expected. I couldn't believe how clear the call quality is. Sitting with hands at my side or even while working people can't tell I'm not on my phone. The screen is beautiful and the sensitivity is just right. Even in the brightest light, I have no problem seeing whats on the screen. I love how it interacts with my phone. The Galaxy AI has been super helpful with monitoring my health, primary reason I purchased my watch. It's hard to believe a watch can give you so much information about your body. The details that the sleep tracker provides has been extremely helpful. Not everyone may find it useful but I love that I can control the watch entirely with gestures and my voice. It really is a priceless feature while working. I'm still learning all the cool stuff this watch does but I'm already very satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone.
