The sport strap is a bit thin, but the watch is awesome! Lightweight, thin, and full of great features like the Running Coach

Love the watch, hate the battery life

I've always love the look and functionality of the Galaxy watches. But the battery life of this latest watch is horrible. For me, not sure about others, the battery doesn't last a full day. I shouldn't have to put my watch in battery saver mode just to get through the day. Fix the battery and this could be a great smartwatch.

Exceeded Expectations, however battery life is not quite what I had hoped. That is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

Nice watch, GPS and sensors accuracy is improved, thankfully bezel is preserved. I have to shop for new bands due to lug system change. Overall stable and snappy, battery lasts longer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wearing the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 for a few weeks now, and I can honestly say it’s the best Galaxy Watch I’ve owned so far—though it’s not perfect. Here’s how it feels in day-to-day life.
First Impressions
Right out of the box, the Watch 8 feels premium. The display is bright and sharp, and the round design still looks like a traditional watch rather than a mini smartphone strapped to your wrist. I went with the 44mm model—it’s big enough to see everything clearly but not so heavy that it feels bulky. The new sapphire glass gives me a bit of peace of mind because I tend to bump my watches against door frames more often than I’d like to admit.
---
Comfort & Style
I wear it all day, from work to workouts, and it’s surprisingly comfortable. The included band is decent, though I swapped it out for a softer silicone one for workouts. The watch face customization is still one of my favorite parts—I can go from a classy, minimalist face for a night out to a data-packed one for running, all in a couple of taps.
Performance & Everyday Use
Samsung really tightened up performance this year. Everything feels smooth—scrolling, opening apps, tracking workouts. Notifications come in instantly, and replying to messages is pretty natural with the swipe keyboard or quick replies.

Battery life, though, is still a mixed bag. On light use, I can stretch it to almost two days, but if I keep the display on continuous its about a day and half.
Overall rating im really happy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the watch it self but I still think it needs a 47mm screen like the 6 classic. Im 51 and I'm having problems seeing some things on the screen. Unsure about the water yet. But I really like everything else. Very comfortable to wear.
