This watch has great AI!

Posted by: GeminiPro
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this watch because of the advanced features from the Watch 6. However, I was not expecting the Gemini integration which I absolutely love. This makes it so much easier for me to multi task without have to have my phone in hand. I can not wait to see what the new Galaxy watch can do especially as AI continues to develop.

Samsung is my #1
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: Whitervn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade my Samsung phone and watch recently because they were outdated. Samsung has been my #1 cell phone for many years now. I started out with the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 in 2018 and have loved their products ever since. I've upgraded from a Galaxy Note 20 and the Galaxy Watch 3 to the Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Galaxy Watch 8 and I'm so happy with them. I don't think I will ever stray away from Samsung because they work great, last a long time and do everything I need them to do and more.

Love the kids setup
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: LizzieBusyBee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy Watch for my 8‑year‑old after comparing it other kids’ watches, and it’s been exactly the balance I wanted. I love that I can manage his watch through the same app I already use for my older kids' phone — everything stays in one ecosystem, and I don’t have to juggle multiple accounts or learn a new interface. Being able to text and call him directly is perfect. He gets the independence he wanted without the full access, distractions, and risks that come with a smartphone. The GPS tracking is reliable, so I always know where he’s at, whether he’s at a friend’s house, or outside playing.
I also really appreciate the app limits and school‑time mode. Other kids’ watches doe have video calling, which is a fun feature I wish this watch had, but it wasn’t worth giving up the convenience of staying within the Samsung ecosystem. My only other wish is that Samsung/Google would allow weekly or daily scheduling in the Family Safety app the same way they do for kids’ phones. Right now, I can set limits, but I can’t create a full weekly schedule for when certain features turn on or off. Overall, the Galaxy Watch 8 gives my child the independence he wants and gives me the peace of mind I need — communication, safety, and control without handing over a full phone.

Good for Showing Results
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: TheCroupier
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the GalaxyWatch 8 due to me wanting to have a watch needed to be provisional to what i want to see with my exercise and newer trend to want to lose weight. The watch really does wonders in wanting to actually show me what I want to have in terms of pure calories burned, and the fact you can use photos to change the face??? Insane.

NEW galaxy
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: Grover
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose galaxy watches long before they became refined.....I chose them due to my galaxy phone and ever since I did, they continue to optimize the watches for the phones. Making it an obvious choice for me.
