[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Samsung phones for at least 15 years! This has always been the phone that works perfect for all my needs. It saddens me that Samsung is dropping their text messaging and forcing us to go to google. Samsung has a much more user friendly system. The AI system is a bit challenging as far as the changes it has created but I am working through it. I do love the suggested editing for comments. Samsung has the best products by far!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new oxygen function works good. I have a smaller wrist so it is taking a bit to get accustomed to the larger size but I enjoy the larger face to look at. My previous Samsung watch stopped working and I had several different bands and face covers for it. I am very disappointed that I cannot change my band to different colors. It connects into AI on my phone and makes getting information much easier. I gave it 4 stars because of the unchangeable band.

Your feedback provides valuable insights that will assist us with improving our product line. It's great to hear that you've been enjoying the features of your Galaxy Watch8 so far. As you know, the Galaxy Watch8 Series features a new "Dynamic Lug System," making the Series compatible only with bands designed for this system.

Thank you for being a treasured Samsung customer. - Debra

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The watch battery lasted longer than the older Samsung watches I've had. The software is amazing and easy to work. The customization is way better than the watch 6 (my first ever Samsung watch).

Hello Nat71901, Thank you for taking the opportunity to reach out and share your thoughts with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 has completely transformed how I track my health and daily activity. The integration of Galaxy Al provides a level of insight I have never experienced with previous wearables. I particularly enjoy the Energy Score feature, which uses Galaxy Al to analyze my sleep and activity patterns to tell me exactly how hard I should push myself each day.
The new 3nm processor makes the interface incredibly snappy, and the 3,000-nit display is crystal clear even in direct sunlight. Whether I am using the advanced running coach or checking my sleep apnea notifications, the data feels precise and actionable. This device does not just track my day; it optimizes it. The build quality is premium, and the battery life easily keeps up with my busy schedule. If you want a smartwatch that actually learns your habits to help you improve, this is the one.

I'm so disappointed of my Samsung Galaxy 8 Smart watch, it's a pain with the battery, I have to put to change at least 2 or 3 times every day. It's a brand new watch. I tried everything that I found in YouTube videos. They need to fix this problem sooner.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This watch has all the features that anyone would love. This watch works great with my Samsung Z Fold with no problems at all. Also for the value, the price is spread out in payments so low you don't even notice the increase on your monthly bill.
