Great until this update. Now it sucks
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: Dave
I absolutely loved my Galaxy watch up until the last update. They "improved" it so much I'm about to take it off and throw it in the trash! Features I use and need won't come up; my screen swipe functions don't work. And every time it comes on I get a screen to set up Gemini, even though I have supposedly turned it off on my phone app. I do NOT want Gemini on my watch. There is so much pushy, obnoxious bloatware! The watch I used to like so much is a piece of crap now.

This has so many ways to track your health & sleep
on March 20, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 has become one of my favorite everyday essentials. Galaxy AI makes the whole experience feel smarter, from personalized health insights to automatic workout detection and the way it learns my routines.
I use it for fitness tracking, notifications, sleep monitoring, and quick replies during work, and it handles everything smoothly. The display is bright, the battery lasts longer than I expected, and the health features feel more accurate and helpful than previous models.
Samsung keeps leveling up its wearables, and this watch genuinely makes my day feel more organized and connected.

Amazing watch
on March 20, 2026
Posted by: Katzville3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have several smart watches and by far this is the best. The AI feature is great and the easy of tracking health items is awesome. This is my first Samsung watch but it will not be my last.

First time user
on March 20, 2026
Posted by: Firsttimer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a first time smartwatch user I found the set up easy. I was disappointed find that the band was too small . I use this device daily to track my health and fitness. It is convenient to use in meetins where I can't always pull out my phone to see messages and who is calling. Overall I would rate this watch 8 out of 10.

Love the functionality
on March 20, 2026
Posted by: NMProf
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this watch for health monitoring, accessing photos, reading messages in meetings when I can't look at my phone, checking my calendar while I'm on the run, and so much more. I was surprised by my ability to take calls when I was very far from my phone. I am looking into how Galaxy AI interfaces with my new watch now that it is paired with my S26 Ultra. The battery life is very good, although I would love a watch that lasted weeks without a charge!
