[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love using my Samsung Galaxy Watch 8. It has so many great features on my watch especially my favorite where I can walk away from my phone and am able to talk to callers on my watch. I am able to receive and send text messages. I am soooo glad I chose this watch. It was the best decision I have ever made.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am honestly so disappointed with how quickly this watch loses its charge. It seems like the battery dies almost instantly whenever I leave it sitting on my nightstand. To make matters worse, the sleep tracking feature is completely unreliable and inaccurate. It is becoming pretty frustrating to deal with these constant issues every single day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung Galaxy z Flip8 as my 3rd z Flip since they came out. It is the fastest phone I've ever used! It's intuitive OS makes everything l do easy and less a chore. It operates seamlessly with my Galaxy watch 8, too!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 for my first smart watch and I love it! It does things better than any others!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the galaxy watch 8 for uts updated square case design and the new watch strap lug system. I have had previous watches and the watch 8 is the one that blew me away with how comfortable and light it is on your wrist. The software is faster than all the previous watches and has the best health features. I use the watch to track my sleep every night as well as fitness tracking. I connect my watch to workout machines at my local gym to get real time data as I'm working out. The health and fitness tracking has helped me over the years stay accountable and I'm in the best shape of my life at the ago of 40!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the fact I can wear it while washing dishes and not be afraid to get it wet. It tracks all the health necessities I need. I chose this one because of its design and functionality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose a Galaxy watch and I'm so grateful I did. I wear my galaxy watch to work in a mechanic shop and it takes the abuse. I wore my watch to work as a roofer for years and never had a single issue. The convenience of being able to glance at my watch and know who is texting me is perfect for on the job use. As a mechanic my hands are often greasy and I don't want to grab my phone from my pocket, or set down my tools while peeking at my messages. On a rooftop it is against OSHA rules to have a cellphone in hand, so peeking at my watch was a great way to safely skirt the rules. Before my Samsung watch I depended on a gshock to take the abuse, and I'm grateful my Samsung can hold it's own.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose Galaxy 8 watch because it was the latest at the time. Love it! So much faster then my old one ha! I upgraded from a Versa that was very slow. Very glad I got my newer model. Love the way the watch bands change so easy compared to the older Versa.
