[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who never owned a smartwatch before, I've been very impressed so far. The fitness tracking is great, no more manually entering most info I care about. Galaxy AI is included on the watch. Very handy to have access to numerous apps as my job prevents carrying my cellphone with me. Still learning about the features and capabilities but, I feel like it was a good purchase.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic to the New Galaxy Watch 8 Classic recently and I noticed right away it's battery life has improved, plus new features that I'm still working on, but so far I'm loving it! Plus AI is very helpful and easy to use!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive owned my watch for 8 years or more and it just went out. I love Samsung phones/watches bc it performs awesome and just the overall features itself is top tier.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started with the 5 series, moved to 6 then 7. The 8 Seies is building on the solid foundation. The new sensors add .ore insight into well-being. Antioxidant Index and Vascular load are great additions. I have not been able to mo e the antioxidant index yet, but that's the goal.
AI capabilities are greatly improved and much more intuitive. Generally I find the sleep and energy portions accurate and helpful insight.
For function, this is my first Galaxy Classic also my first rotating bezel. It is convenient and easy to use with gloves on.
I have at times found, during excersize, the heart rate monitor will momentarily drop out or ramp up higher compared to my what heart rate is; however, it does self correct. I also use a Polar Verity at the same time. The two are almost always a beat or so apart, except for the infrequent occurrences as described.
I like the integration into Samsung Health including the benefits of AI.
Sure ther are still more health benefits to build on, Adding more powered profiles than running would be great. Enhancing VO2 function capabilities would also be a benefit.
Solid health platform and watch. I have used it to improve my health.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hesitant to upgrade from watch 6 classic because of the squircle design, but when I saw in person I don't regret it at all. It was very nice upgrade.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using the sleep coach features now.the AI features do work. Battery life is dramaticly improved over the watch 6. The screen is bigger and brighter, and the fit is better.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Classic is a perfect name for this watch! Faster and more features than the watch 7, but it actually looks like a dive watch that Bond would wear. Good size and weight on the wrist and the bezel is very useful. Thank you Samsung, for making the smart watch feel like something you actually want to wear every day!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had samsung devices continuously for the past decade or so, and I can attest to the ultimate functionability of the Watch 8 Classic. It feels as though this watch is far more accurate in its readings then previous watches. I noticed that the battery doesn't last very long and takes a while to charge, but it lasts for roughly 3 days!
I use Google Home for all my devices. So to have galaxy AI built into this watch is amazing! Im never left with an unanswered question, and it always assists in connecting to my devices!
It's also very stylish! This makes me feels as though I have a super expensive watch!
