Beat samsung watch so far
on August 5, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This galaxy watch 8 does it all. The battery last for days vs my older model which was lucky to last 1 day. I use this as my alarm clock, tracks all my fitness seamlessly and i can integrate with my samsung phone. I would recommend picking this up. Easy to learn if you arent familiar using smart watches, and also has the new Galaxy AI which is a must have to stay current with new technology. You can customize this watch so many ways to fit your style.

Almost perfect...almost

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy watch 8 , in my opinion is a great update to the Galaxy Watch7. Having Galaxy AI directly on device with gemini is much better than using bixby. The finish on the body looks much more like brushed aluminum than the previous model that looked more like painted plastic. The new band connection is very fast and convenient. I wish the connection was the same size as the watch ultra's however since I own both and would nice to not have to buy two sets bands for both watches. The only gripes I have with the watch8 are the speaker and the haptic. Both are weak. I've missed notification because the speaker just wasn't loud enough. All the health/sleep tracking info is very accurate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like to use battery saver but to use the new features you can't use that so that is tough. Wish the battery was better.

3rd Galaxy Watch-- best so far!
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: JBBill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had 3 Galaxy watches over the years. The Galaxy Watch 8 moves the needle. Battery life is good and recharge time is quick, so I can charge while sitting at my desk and wear it night/day.
I appreciate the new sensors. Health app matched the BMI my doctor gave me. I feel good about the health data being accurate.
Galaxy AI integration is smooth and easy to use.
I picked the white watch with white band. I have received a few compliments about its look. Pleased with the upgrade from a Galaxy 6 after a few weeks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very functional and good looking watch. Battery life could be better but I get about a day on a single charge.

Beautiful watch, abundant features, crevice issue
on August 4, 2025

I upgraded from the Galaxy Watch 7 because I really wanted access to the antioxidants and vascular load measurements. Upon initial testing, it actually works really nicely and coincides with the results I've received during my doctor's visits. I love it and have been trying to monitor my health more with the wishes of my mother. The watch screen overall is beautiful, and I love the many features it provides. Very easy to set up and love the ability to ensure I only receive the notifications I want. The bluetooth actually reaches a really nice distance so even if I leave my phone in my living room while I'm in the kitchen, I can still answer calls or texts.
I only have small issues against the watch that keep me from rating it 5 stars. I still don't like the bands that samsung provides and have to order my own as they seem to make the area I wear it on really sweaty causing it to rash up. After I ordered my own bands, I don't have this issue. Another issue is there's like a small crevice around the watch that allows dirt in, which can be a little annoying to keep clean. I also worry about dirt getting inside the watch that could cause damage. I don't recall having this issue when I had the 7. In my photo you can see a little bit of the dirt/dust that snuck into the crevice.
At the end of the day, I love my watch and am happy with my purchase.
