Hello Jaiy,
Thank you for taking the time to share your sentiments with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8. Your constructive feedback allows us to make improvements on our devices to best suit the needs of our customers. Samsung offers a 12-month warranty on your device 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. Assisting you with what you may be experiencing with your Galaxy Watch8 is our highest priority, however, without having any details available regarding what may be occurring and without being able to ask you any questions to probe further, I recommend contacting Samsung Support at your earliest convenience. Thank you for choosing Samsung!

This product is very smooth

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have never owned a smart watch, so a major learning curve. Still trying to figure out how to recieve text messages. I can answer and send calls, recieve other notifications, but still working on receiving texts. But I just upgraded my s22 to an s26 and got this watch last evening. Need to try to figure out galaxy AI and/ Gemini as I've never used them before. Excited to try it out though. I've only owned both for about 15 hours, most of which were overnight so I was sleeping and not able to play around and figure everything out.

I bought this to replace my very old Fitbit. While the screen of the new watch can do fancy things, the battery life isn't even half of what my extremely old Fitbit was. I've taken off most of the programs that track various things and always have the battery saver on, but it only lasts for a few days. What is the point of having access to the different programs if running them is going to kill the battery in a day?
Also the extremely expensive band I got with it gave me an awful rash on my wrist that still hasn't gone away even though I've bought off-brand ones and have changed arms.
I wish I could send it back, but I'm probably over the return time.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Samsung watch 8
on May 18, 2026
Posted by: Monnie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really been liking the Galaxy Watch 8 so far. I use it every day for notifications, tracking steps, checking messages, controlling music, and just staying connected without always grabbing my phone. The watch looks clean, feels comfortable to wear all day, and runs really smooth.
The health and fitness tracking has been one of my favorite features. I like being able to track my activity, heart rate, sleep, and workouts all in one place. Everything syncs quickly with my Samsung phone and the overall experience feels really seamless. The display is bright and easy to read, even outside, and navigating through apps feels fast and responsive.
I’ve also been enjoying some of the Galaxy AI features and smart functions because they actually make daily use easier. Being able to quickly respond to messages, check reminders, or glance at notifications without pulling my phone out all the time has been super convenient.
Another thing I really like is being able to switch out the watch bands depending on my mood or style. I like that I can customize it to fit my personality and make it look more sporty, casual, or dressed up whenever I want.
The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the battery life wasn’t the best for me at first. Some days it drained faster than I expected, especially with certain settings turned on. But after changing a few settings and customizing things a little, I was able to get a lot more battery life out of it and it’s been much better since
