Amazing Watch
on July 27, 2025
Posted by: Galaxi
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming from the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, I love the new watch 8. I got the 44mm due to it having a bigger screen. The new watch oneUI 8 is amazing. I cant go back to not have it.

My first smart watch
on July 27, 2025
Posted by: Sandy Beach
from Northern California
Expertise:Beginner
Today is my 3rd day with my new watch. I got the 40mm in silver with the small/medium sport strap in mint. The face is plenty large for my wrist, strap is roomy enough.
Cons: strap was very difficult to clip on!
Battery dies quickly!
I'd really like more watch faces that are more feminine, most seem very masculine. I'd love to
be able to use my phone screen saver for my clock face.
Pros: I'm loving the health monitoring, even an ekg and sleep apnea detector. I love the sleep monitor.
Nice to be able to check my notifications from my watch.
Fairly comfortable to wear. I haven't worn a watch steady so it's new.
Cons: strap was very difficult to clip on!

Upgrade to the Watch8
on July 27, 2025
Posted by: Rolin8or
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had Samsung watches since the Watch5, the Watch8 with Galaxy AI is by far the best of them. This watch is thin, and light. I really like the squircle design, and the display of the screen is very clear. I thought about getting the Classic or Ultra this time, but I'm happy I got the Watch8.

It's the bees knees.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Saying it's the cats meow just wouldn't do it justice! It's the best thing since ending prohibition. If Henry Ford could choose between a model t and this watch, he'd pick the watch! Oh also AI is really just machine learning, not sure why it's a called AI now...

I like it

The squircle design looks better in person. The watch band was tricky to put on. There was a moment where I thought it was in but fell off. I had to apply a bit of strength and then I heard a loud click noise each time the bands went in. After that, the watch is very secure. I have a white hybrid band. Very nice but slightly uncomfortable. May have to get used to it. Took about 3 days for the battery to learn my usage patterns. Charges very fast with an adapter. I can get to 100 percent within an hour or so and the battery lasts all day. The watch faces are very appealing, hard to pick a favorite. 40mm feels big enough for my wrist, enough room for me to type and navigate the screen. I get why they added the square exterior, bumping the watch against things was scary but the screen was spared from the impact. I recommend getting a case and protector for it just in case. The 50 dollar pre order promo was applied to my order as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm in the process to familiarize with the features, specially in the part where I can track my sleep. I think Samsung watch 8 would be a big hit, for concerns about health in general and to create healthy habits.

Besides everyone having issues with their watch straps not locking in, I have not had these or any issues with the new watch. I have the 40mm. It's very comfortable for me. I am not talking for everyone. Everyone wrist is going to be different fit and feel.
I would recommend this to a friend!
