Features on watch 8
on May 17, 2026
Posted by: Pinkrose23
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I fell in love with the Watch 8. It fits my wrist well, and the features are a 10/10. So far, I use it when I'm going to school or outing. I love how accurate the heart rate testing is, and I even love how it has AI Gemini on the watch. I can ask questions when my phone is far away from me or just in my bag. I can even take calls or text; it's made so easy.

I'm coming from a Galaxy Watch 4 that's been in the gym with me for years. The GW8 is already delivering a smoother interface and improved performance. Looking forward to many more years with this one.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice watch but keeps disconnecting from WiFi. The only device that keeps doing it. Had to reconnect 4 times in one day and my phone is not more then 30 feet.

Battery life is a joke.It lasts 15 hrs, unless you switch to power savings.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like the features but dislike wearing watches
on May 17, 2026
Posted by: SunShine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that you can answer your phone and make calls. The texting is not very easy due to size. I do like the health and fitness apps it has including keeping or monitoring heartrate, if you exercised. Most of all I liked that I could go swimming too.. the battery need improvement but over all I enjoyed having this product, and wear it quite often.

First time using a smart watch
on May 17, 2026
Posted by: GordonCole
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I'm doing work I don't want to have to pull phone out to check every notification, so having a watch to quickly peak at saves me a lot of trouble.
Audio controls, calculator, camera view, heart rate monitor, voice recorder and other apps are super helpful too and keep me from having to use my phone as much.
The screen is clear and responsive. Really enjoying my first smart watch.
