[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first smartwatch and I wanted one compatible with my galaxy phone. It's nice to look at and functions like a mini phone. It was easy to set up and link with my phone. It has a good battery life and I love that I can adjust the settings via my phone. So far so good!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new shape of the watch gives it an updated look. The choice of watch faces are also updated to match the new look. I use my watch to answer, reject, and see who is calling on my Samsung phone. I also workout daily so I track my steps and exercise activities. I have used the AI features asking various questions and receiving an answer. I love all the Samsung products because they always stand above other models. Keep up the good work!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Galaxy Watch 8 is a standout companion on the wrist. The tracking and health features are reliable and accurate, and the battery life comfortably gets me through several days. The screen is crisp and easy to read even outdoors. Galaxy AI adds smart convenience — from quick responses and voice commands to enhanced workflow and on-the-go insights. It’s a sleek, capable smartwatch that blends advanced tech with everyday practicality.

Powerful Health Tracker, Needs Tattoo Fix
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: DigitalBestie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Samsung Galaxy Watch8 is a recent, powerful purchase! It’s incredibly fast and feels like a true extension of my phone, especially with Galaxy AI onboard.
I'm incredibly impressed with the comprehensive health tracking. The AI features like Energy Score and the Running Coach provide personalized, actionable insights—it’s like having a coach on my wrist! The heart rate, ECG, and activity monitoring are top-tier.
However, there is one major snag: it consistently fails to monitor my sleep or sleep apnea risk. I'm guessing the optical sensors are struggling to read through my tattoos. It's frustrating that this key health feature, which relies heavily on advanced AI analysis, is currently unusable for me.
Despite this sensor hiccup, the Watch8 is a phenomenal device for daily activity and health data. It's powerful and smart, but Samsung needs a solution for inked users!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive had the Samsung Galaxy watch 6 for a few years and I love it, but I decided to upgrade. I just got my Galaxy 8 I in the mail yesterday and so far I love it!
I haven't had much of a chance to try out all the features but I'm sure I will be very happy.
Ive hear great things about the Galaxy AI, and plan on using it a bunch.

Another Great Gift
on December 5, 2025
Posted by: Octoberskies1984
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this watch as a gift for my dad. He's been studying and eyeing this watch since the moment it came out. When he saw the watch, his eyes lit up like a kid on Christmas...mind you, he's 60. He's always loved tech stuff and Samsung. So this was perfect for him! #AnotherGreatGift

Easy to use, not intrusive

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't yet heavily leverage the Galaxy AI functionality yet. But, I am very happy with the experience. It feels good to be congratulated for good behavior like standing and walking around as I have a very sedentary lifestyle.
The ability to make and receive phone calls independent of my phone also allows me to detach from technology for a while, but still feel like I am safe because I have a way to call for help, if needed.
