[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since I bought my Galaxy Watch 8 my daily routines and exercise routines have improved tremendously. The ease of using Galaxy AI to set reminders and calendar events stands out. The running coach, sleep coach, and all the workout routines you can set for exercises are outstanding. They even have sports like tennis and you can add whatever you want to track your progress. I added pickleball because I love pickleball. The upgrades to have the left swipe categories for basic functions, exercise functions, and other features makes it easy to get to your favorite features. It's very customizable compared to the older versions of Galaxy Watches I have tried. I recommend this watch if you are a busy person with a work out routine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love my Samsung watch 8. It is easy to use for a person in her 50's like me. I love to use the AI to make calls to check on my upcoming events to search for things like recipes. Also I don't need headphone while cooking or doing other things. The speed is quick. I can use it to make calls from my Samsung S25 phone without holding it too. I just got out about a month ago so I haven't tried everything as of yet. I will also a lot of my apps that was on my phone is also on my watch. It is comfortable to wear.I like the options to change the watch to your individual preferences. The apps the help with your health can make it easier to keep track of things that could help you or your doctors. One of my favorite apps is the speak to note. Bixby is also another of my favorite apps. Battery is great it lasts days instead of hours if you have the battery saver on its a week (seven days) of battery if not it's week of 5 days. The speaker is louder enough to hear. The alarm clock is louder enough to wake a deep sleeper like myself. This is my 1st time to use the camera but it didn't take me to long to understand it either. The all the exercises reminder can help someone that needs the push to get started by letting you know what you're health is like. I don't really understand some apps like the smart thing but it's on both my phone & watch. So I'm still playing with them plus my samsung tablet. I love the app where I can find my found due to having lost my phone before. ❤
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a comfortable and lightweight watch for daily use and even during sleep. Normally, I only wear my galaxy ring to sleep but some nights I'll wear my watch for extra statistics such as the Sleep Apnea function. Worn with the fabric band, I was not bothered by it at all during sleep which I am quite picky about. It also fits more flush for a tighter fit which feels more secure and in my opinion looks better. The battery is decent and lasts me all day which is pretty expected for the smallest 40mm size, enough for my needs. I use the galaxy ai assistant to control my home devices such as lights which is great when I'm not around my phone. It is also a decent fitness tracker. I use it to track my steps and remind me to get up and move after long periods of being stationary. Best iteration of the galaxy watch line yet.
