This watch replaced my Galaxy watch 6 which was my first experience with a Galaxy watch. The new watch Galaxy watch 8 pleasantly surprised me by its design improvements. It is so much mo lighter and comfortable. Great change.
The auto pause function drives me crazy. There should be an option to disable this for all exercises. It frequently interrupts the tracking of my exercise. Otherwise the watch works very similar to previous models.
Love my new watch. I needed an upgrade from the 4, this has been working perfectly so far. I really love it!
I would recommend this to a friend!
