Samsung continues to build on Galaxy Watch
on August 5, 2025
Posted by: Diehardsamsung62
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started with the 5 series, moved to 6 then 7. The 8 Seies is building on the solid foundation.
The new sensors add .ore insight into well-being. Antioxidant Index and Vascular load are great additions.
I have not been able to mo e the antioxidant index yet, but that's the goal.
AI capabilities are greatly improved and much more intuitive. Generally I find the sleep and energy portions accurate and helpful insight.
For function, this is my first Galaxy Classic also my first rotating bezel. It is convenient and easy to use with gloves on.
I have at times found, during excersize, the heart rate monitor will momentarily drop out or ramp up higher compared to my what heart rate is; however, it does self correct. I also use a Polar Verity at the same time. The two are almost always a beat or so apart, except for the infrequent occurrences as described.
I like the integration into
Samsung Health including the benefits of AI.
Sure ther are still more health benefits to build on, Adding more powered profiles than running would be great. Enhancing VO2 function capabilities would also be a benefit.
Solid health platform and watch. I have used it to improve my health.

Amazing Upgrade
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: NoOneExistsAlone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had samsung devices continuously for the past decade or so, and I can attest to the ultimate functionability of the Watch 8 Classic. It feels as though this watch is far more accurate in its readings then previous watches. I noticed that the battery doesn't last very long and takes a while to charge, but it lasts for roughly 3 days!
I use Google Home for all my devices. So to have galaxy AI built into this watch is amazing! Im never left with an unanswered question, and it always assists in connecting to my devices!
It's also very stylish! This makes me feels as though I have a super expensive watch!
Even my cat approves! (As seen in picture)

Women is not as big as you think
on August 7, 2025
Posted by: Anna7810
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a woman myself and have small wrist so my hesitation was that the watch would look too big on my wrist but after wearing it daily for two weeks it doesn't feel too big, I also compared it to my fiancé who owns the Galaxy Watch8 in 44mm and his looked bigger than mine. With Galaxy AI on the Watch8 it now has features like Sleep Coach and Running Coach to help me stay on track with my fitness goals.

Innovative & Game Changing Tech in a Classic Look
on July 30, 2025
Posted by: Swaggnificent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been anticipating upgrading and using my Galaxy Watch 8 Classic since I pre-ordered it, and it has NOT disappointed me! The look and feel says classy (yes, I added a Rolex face😁), but with a bold future step. The inclusion of Galaxy AI is a major step up. I'm able to get answers, complete tasks, and go about my day without having to pull out devices (I have an S24 Ultra 1TB with a Z Fold 7 1TB on the way) ALL FROM MY WRIST! It gives me the responses and executes tasks in a way that makes me feel heard in my voice and not in a way that I feel I have to modify myself to do so. The storage upgrade, is a life saver too. I can leave my phones in the locker, grab my earbuds, and lock in. That's a HUGE relief. Not having to bring phones with me moving from equipment to equipment is very satisfying and I can be fully focused without worrying about potential damage being done to them. The battery is enough where I dont feel I have to charge it at crucial moments either. And the health enhancements and upgrades take it a step further. I can literally go about my day and I have an AI that's a PA to remind of everything from my schedule and medications, to answering calls and the most random of questions, to informing me when I'm not being the best to my body and not only that, but ways I can improve to be the best version of myself. Even my girlfriend is getting a Galaxy Watch 8 40mm because she's so impressed. Long story short.... I LOVE THIS DEVICE!!💗✌🏾
Z Fold 7 review coming.

Nice watch
on July 28, 2025

Expertise:Expert
Bought this as a gift to myself for making it 5 years at my current job.
I had the galaxy watch 4 which I got for free a few years ago. Last summer I wore it to cedar point, and the battery died way to fast. The last ride I stood in line for my watch died. We lost my friend, and with my watch being dead no way to contact her, and her husband asking me over and over if my watch worked.
I have been needing a new watch. Which the battery lasted longer other than that I really like the watch. Im glad I went with the black watch with the stainless steel, and the pink wrist band it looks good.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Loving Watch So Far...Not Watch Band Attachment
on July 28, 2025
Posted by: BrianSc
Watch Band Attachment is the worst one I've ever experienced with any previous Galaxy watches. Just started using the watch and so far so good on that.
