BEST DESIGN EVER!!

This watch is the best ever. The design is so elegant and attractive! Please do this again Samsung. The watch is so light and comfortable that I have to check my wrist once in awhile to make sure it's still there. Great battery life and super accurate for treadmill workouts. Just can't say enough about the new design and the entire watch. EXCELLENT ALL AROUND! Thank you Samsung!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Basically use my Galaxy Watch 8 for steps, EKG heart monitor, easy usage, large face easy read, water resistance feature is great for my water aerobics class. I like the texting feature too. I will utilize the Ai "hey Google" a lot.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Watch 8 is notably the first smartwatch to ship with Google’s Gemini AI out-of-the-box . Samsung positions it as the ultimate AI‑powered wrist device, combining advanced health tracking with smart voice features.
AI Features with Galaxy AI & Google Gemini
Voice Assistant Gemini: You can now interact with Gemini directly on your wrist over Wi‑Fi or LTE – ask to “summarize your last email,” send messages, or save notes like “where I parked” – all without pulling out your phone .

An outlook for galaxy watch 8
on July 30, 2025
Posted by: Topgun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A modern slick look with the option of variety of bands which is ideal for all walks of life
The charging option requires an unique wall charger/port which is compatible with the magnetic piece charging cable which is a standard practice of wearable gadgets
However the cable for charging port is limited in length and not ideal for side table reach from bed/sofa/couch etc
40 mm or 44 depends on individual style and wrist form
Definitely stylish with a touch of tacticality from Samsung

Slim design
on August 1, 2025
Posted by: ElAmorDeEl
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The watch is a slimmer than the previous Samsung Gear 3 I had. It's easy to set up. The icons are easy to find. It has more app options than my previous watch. The battery lasts longer as well. The Galaxy AI pairs well with my new phone. I am happy with my purchase.

Finally convinced me to get a smart watch! Glad!

I've never owned a smart watch, but after hearing about the new features and seeing the design I really wanted to try it! So glad I did! I never thought i'd be so impressed by a smart watch as I know people who've owned them and thought it was weird haha but no this is great especially if you're a swimmer like me! Also the built in AI is great even if there is still some optimization to be done It's a great feature!
I would recommend this to a friend!
