I waited for a while to make this purchase. But I am so glad that I finally did. This watch is great. The larger screen is awesome along with all of the capabilities.
Love this watch and would recommend to anyone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor battery life
on January 13, 2026

The watch itself is nice, light weight and a useful tool. Unfortunately the daily battery life has decreased Now having worn it for 3 1/2 hours this morning it is down 25%. When it first arrived i was getting 36 to 48 hours of battery life, now it is under 24. There is no way I can "sleep" with it on or it would be out of power.

Response from Samsung USBy R&R TeamJanuary 14, 2026
Hi there GFord,
Thanks for providing us with detailed feedback regarding your experience using your Samsung Galaxy Watch8. Your critiques provide valuable insights that will assist us with improving our product line. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. We also have Samsung Care+ as an option which can be added to an eligible device. It's similar to extended warranty and an insurance package combined that provides protection beyond the standard manufacturer's warranty. It may cover events like accidental damage, mechanical breakdowns, and potentially theft and loss. Samsung Care+ offers you the ultimate peace of mind when it comes to protecting your investment. The Galaxy Watch8 40mm model comes with a 325mAh battery, and the 44mm model has a 435mAh battery. Both options offer up to 30 hours of use in Always On Display (AOD) mode. Please take a moment to review, "Reduced battery life on your Samsung smart watch" to see what factors, if any, may be impacting the life of your device. Let us know if you would like any further assistance afterward by contacting Samsung Support. Thanks for choosing Samsung!

The watch face is a little bigger than I expected, as it's square. It's a beautiful watch, with great features, and I love the design.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bought the watch as a Christmas gift for my wife. She really likes it. She has bought different bands and covers to protect the lens. It was a hit!
