I love the update design along with the clarity on the screen when reading messages and emails. I also like the new running coach that comes with the updated watch along with the longer battery life.
I was hoping for longer battery life which is why I decided to trade in my Watch6. The battery life wasn't lasting as long as it had when I first got it. The watch8 battery is lasting the same length of time as my watch6 when I traded it in
Lighter, larger screen & lower profile than my last G5 with much crisper screen. Lots of features & I love the Samsung Health app to help me track my readings, exercise, water & food intake, and much more. I do prefer the old band on the G5 but Im getting used to the new siliconized rubber adjustable band. Well worth the money
