Got this to track my sleep. Does not track oxygen very well. Really like all the watch faces available. Metal on back oxidized and has to be cleaned daily. Have to charge every day even though all I do is track sleep.

Hey there Virginia,
Thanks for providing us with detailed feedback regarding your experience using your Samsung Galaxy Watch8. Your constructive insight allows us to make improvements on our devices. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. We also have Samsung Care+ as an option which can be added to an eligible device. It's similar to extended warranty and an insurance package combined that provides protection beyond the standard manufacturer's warranty. It may cover events like accidental damage, mechanical breakdowns, and potentially theft and loss. Samsung Care+ offers you the ultimate peace of mind when it comes to protecting your investment. Inaccurate blood oxygen reading is typically due to an improper fit, placement of your device being too close to your wrist, or movement during measurement. "Properly wear and clean your Samsung smart watch" will help alleviate with an improper fit. The Galaxy Watch8 40mm model comes with a 325mAh battery, and the 44mm model has a 435mAh battery. Both options offer up to 30 hours of use in Always On Display (AOD) mode. Please take a moment to review, "Reduced battery life on your Samsung smart watch" to see what factors, if any, may be impacting the life of your device. Feel free to let us know if you would like any further assistance after reviewing the resources linked below by contacting Samsung Support. Thank you for being a steadfast Samsung customer.

Battery life is horrible. Even if I left it off for a day it doesn't last long at all.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The
Galaxy watch8 is exactly what I was looking for. It is light and just full of features. It was easy to set up and use. I use it every day during my work outs. I have a heart condition and have to keep track of my heartbeat to make sure it doesn't get too high.

While the watch 8 is an upgrade from my watch 4. It's still not better than my watch 2. The sleekness, quality, colour range, battery life and comfort of the watch 2 cannot be beat. Also, the watch 8 turns off wrist to wake ever so often and samsung has not fixed that even with multiple complains. Otherwise, it's works as expected.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The size is perfect for small arms. Screen color is crisp and clear. Also like being able to customize the watch face. The material quality feels good.
