[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the way my watch interacts with my Samsung phone not to mention the speed that the watch uses galaxy Ai to look information up for me no question ever goes unanswered.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Its so quick with the screen reaction and a total upgrade from before. I absolutely love it and cannot complain 1 bit
Ok, I've had enough. I hate this watch. From having a phone die, to switching to the new phone, to my new phone forgetting the watch for 2 seconds, I've had to reset this thing and lose all my data 3 times. The sync across Samsung Health and Smart Switch is just terrible. I've lost so much data, it makes me angry. I'm done with Samsung. I'm going to try the Google Pixel.

Hello George, Thank you for finding the time out of your day to share your thoughts with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8. We appreciate your feedback as it allows us to improve the performance and functionality of our product line. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. If your watch will not pair to a phone, or if it randomly disconnects, restart your watch. You should also make sure the Galaxy wearable app is up to date, but it may be necessary to reset the app and unpair your watch. Please review, "Samsung smart watch will not connect to a phone" to help resolve what you may be experiencing with your connectivity. If your Samsung Health data isn't syncing automatically between your watch and phone, you should check your network connection and make sure the app is updated. If your watch was set up without a phone, then your most recent activity is stored only on the watch and you will not be able to view it on your phone. Without having more details available regarding what you may be experiencing with your device and without being able to ask you any follow up questions to probe further, I recommend reaching out to Samsung Support after reviewing the resources shared if you would like further assistance with troubleshooting your device further. Thank you for being a treasured Samsung customer. - Debra

This watch has more features than my FitBit watches. I wanted an ECG and phone calls, etc. I also like that there are optional watch face choices. I really love the round shape. It's by far the best smart watch I have had.
