I love my samsung watch
on October 3, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This watch is great.I use it in place of my phone. The best part that I love is using my watch to pay at retailers and restaurants. I love all the different faces and I use the health app which is fantastic at tracking my steps. And exercise activity.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 is pure perfection! Sleek, comfy, and that stunning display pops in any light. Galaxy AI is a game-changer—custom workout plans and real-time coaching feel like having a personal trainer on my wrist. Sleep tracking and energy scores are spot-on, making wellness effortless. Samsung nailed it!

Purchased this on sale after trading in my watch 5 pro, and if it weren't for how laggy the watch 5 pro has become with latest updates, I would have gone right back to it. The W5P battery life is much better, for a very similar weight and size. This watch, even with the big square cushion, couldn't seem to fit enough battery in it. With sleep tracking, it will lose ~30%, and with AOD, it definitely doesn't last the rest of the day. I actually charge it at night and in the morning just to have enough to last through my day.
I made the mistake of purchasing a GW ultra awhile back, and was disappointed by how bulky and unwieldy it was for the sake of having some battery life; undoing cuff buttons on dress shirts just to fit the watch through is silly. Was hoping this would be a sleeker improvement, but still quite a few tradeoffs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great watch
on October 2, 2025
Posted by: Scooby
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the galaxy watch. Everything works seamlessly with the software. I have a Zfold6 & I just make sure it is connected when I start my day which it normally is and then I start my day. I had a bad fall recently & fall detection did not work because the watch had lost connection with the phone although it was only a few feet away. That was not very unfortunate for me. Fortunately I was able to get to my phone to call my brother for assistance. Technology isn't perfect so now I check my watch to make sure it is connected especially when I am outside. Fall detection & call assistance was a big factor in purchasing this watch. I do wish it would give a audible/vibrate alert when it loses connection with the phone. Some kind of way so you will immediately know it lost connection so you can fix the issue.

Very happy with my watch. Easy to pair to my phone and set up how I want it. So far does a great job keeping track of items I want to keep track of. Was great to choose a watch face that is suitable to the things I want to see at a glance. Have only had it for about a month or two now but so far is doing everything I want it to do. Would definitely recommend.
I would recommend this to a friend!
