[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new Galaxy Watch 8 has a more square bezel, with the same round face. But is a bit lighter than previous versions, even between my old Galaxy Watch 7 40mm, and my new 8 44mm.
It's more responsive, making tasks easier. The updated OS has at least one feature I've been waiting for: being able to close apps, giving you some extra battery life.

The battery runs down too fast. I can't even wear it a full day without recharging. Very disappointed in this. Full charge lasts less than 12 hrs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
