I got this watch to help track my fitness journey and am impressed. I love the design and the responsiveness of the watch. I love that it tracks my sleep, rest, activity, body fat percentage, and heart health. Additionally with the samsung health app provides an easy transfer of data and tracking center.

The watch's design itself, lightweight material, and the fact that the battery drains too quickly, I think everything else is good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I havent had any kind of smartwatch besides the galaxy fit pro3. The watch 8 is a very nice device. I wear it more than I did the fit3. I did have to buy a different band because the one that comes with the watch is very small but its easy to swap bands with the push button. The watch face is easy to see in any setting outside or inside. I personally like the default watch face because I keep the always on display turned on but when it dims the screen it still looks like a normal watch without using much battery. The health tracking is pretty accurate I think and its fairly easy to respond to messages using the small keyboard or voice. Ive used it hiking, walking and kayaking. I like that it is waterproof and it charges pretty fast in my opinion. Ive also lost it before but it does have a find my watch feature so it was easy to find. I recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a Samsung user for years, and I can honestly say this is the most impressed I've ever been with an upgrade.
I previously owned the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic and absolutely loved it. It was stylish, reliable, and had everything I needed. I never planned on replacing it anytime soon. Then I decided to try the Galaxy Watch 8, and from the moment I started using it, I knew it was a completely different experience.
The Galaxy AI features have been a game changer for me, especially as someone who manages a business. Having smart tools available right from my wrist helps me stay organized, productive, and connected throughout the day. The watch feels faster, smarter, and more intuitive than anything I've owned before.
What surprised me most was how much I enjoyed the Watch 8 that I upgraded my phone the very next day from the Galaxy S22 Ultra to the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Once again, Samsung exceeded my expectations. The AI features, performance, camera improvements, and seamless connection between my phone and watch have made everyday tasks easier and more efficient.
The Galaxy Watch 6 Classic was an excellent smartwatch, but the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy S26 Ultra have taken my Samsung experience to an entirely new level. These devices aren't just upgrades—they've changed the way I work, stay organized, and communicate. For the first time in a long time, a technology upgrade truly felt exciting, and I couldn't be happier with my decision.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung watches are more reliable and functional than any smartwatch I have tried. I switched to Samsung after trying the second watch.
