[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my watch! The battery life is great, the features are amazing, the customization options are beyond what I would have expected, and this thing is TOUGH! I'm a clumsy person and have dropped it, accidentally slung it, slammed it, and any other kind of abuse you can think of. Oh and I rarely remember to turn on the water lock feature and just get in the shower/pool/ocean anyway... And the watch is STILL GOING STRONG! This thing is going to last forever and I am here for it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've never had a smart watch before but was in the market looking around for one. Since I already like the other Samsung products I decided to look into the watches. After the helpful comparing on their sites I found out the galaxy watch8 was the perfect fit!
After a few weeks of usage and figuring out how all the applications and features I highly recommend it! For anyone who is a semi-busy person this little device is pretty good and helps you keep up to date without having to always look down at your phone.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first ever smartwatch and I've had a very nice experience with it. I love all the features it has especially tracking my heart rate and my steps. Its very useful for all my needs! I also love how customizable the watch face is, i have so many saved to match my outfits!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This watch keeps me on target with my health goals. I've done 10K, 15K and even 20K step challenges. And I love that this watch help keeps me on target.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The watch is below average. Battery. Only last 1 day. Futures promised before release. Like blood glucose is only available in the 2 countries around the world, BELOW expectation. And a huge the disappointment. Most of the features are independent features. Accessed, one at a time. You don't have a single button that measures everything in one shot very time, consuming and annoying.

Howdy Andre8888888, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us regarding your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8. We appreciate your candor as we continue to improve our product line to align with the needs of our customers. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on your smartwatch for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. We also offer Samsung Care+ which is similar to an extended warranty and an insurance package combined. It can provide protection beyond the standard manufacturer's warranty. It could cover events like accidental damage, mechanical breakdowns, and potentially theft and loss. Samsung Care+ truly offers you the ultimate peace of mind when it comes to protecting your investment. Our partners at UbreakIfix are also available to assist you with any repair needs you may have. The Galaxy Watch8 is a slim, lightweight wearable packing Wear OS 6, a snappy 3nm processor, and Google Gemini AI into a distinctive cushion-shaped design. It delivers advanced wellness measurements like vascular load and antioxidant tracking, alongside daily smartwatch conveniences straight from your wrist. The Galaxy Watch Series (Watch4 and later) does not natively measure non-invasive blood glucose. However, you still may be able to track glucose by manually logging readings in the Samsung Health app or by syncing a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM). You can enter blood sugar readings manually using your phone via the Samsung Health app to review daily trends and estimate HbA1c over time. While we're actively researching non-invasive optical sensors for future models like the Galaxy Watch8 or beyond, a direct built-in glucose monitor is not yet commercially available. The Galaxy Watch8 40mm model offers a 325mAh battery while the 44mm model offers a 435mAh battery. Both options offer up to 30 hours of use in Always On Display (AOD) mode. Please take a moment to check out, "Reduced battery life on your Samsung smart watch" to see what factors, if any, may be impacting the life of your device.
