Great watch, amazing performance!
on July 31, 2025
Posted by: Maryv3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just bought my Samsung watch 8 44mm, as a trade in to the watch 7.
At first glance, it was obvious that the size of it. The thickness and the design, was definitely a winning point.
I really like the the new version of tile options and the watch faces, as well as the notifications. The ui 8 gives it a smooth operation and speed.
I noticed the display as brighter even at lower setting and easier to see in the sunlight.
The new band design is the only thing that made me pause. I have had Samsung watches for many years, many of them I was able to use the bands form the old to the new. Unfortunately I can't do this with this watch, because of the new design change. It is great, I love the button and how easy to change the bands, but I can't use the ones I already have. If you could offer the option with an attachment to be able to use regular 22mm bands, I bet a lot of customers would buy it, myself included.
Overall the watch is great. I am finding it very comfortable and a great addition to my Samsung devices.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The battery life isn't great and I've only had the watch for 2 weeks at the most. And for whatever reason they will NOT make the charger cord longer!!!

This product or perfect for the busy mom
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: Lb19OG
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is such a great feature for a watch. Its perfect for quick questions and reminders when your hands are full.
As a busy mom of toddlers this watch is great for keeping track of tasks and checking on emails and keeping up with messages.
I love how accurate the health tracking is. Its so easy to pull all my health stats up and keep up with my health.

the Galaxy AI features
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: GillyTheGirl
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have found that most of the Galaxy AI features were really already part of Watch 7. I'm still learning the differences. It's nice that it's thinner than my previous watches. The outer ring of the Galaxy watch 8, is very bulky in its look, but still comfortable. I don't like the changed the way the bands attach (it's easy to do), but I have tons of bands that no longer fit.

Great upgrade!!
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: Maurizzle87
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased with my upgraded watch. I had the Galaxy Watch 5 and have just upgraded to the Galaxy Watch 8. The watch and screen are bigger and yet its more comfortable to wear than the previous version. I use my watch during the day while Im working and while I sleep at night. I love the health insights I receive and is my main purpose of using the device. Using Galaxy AI on this watch is super simple and has been very fun to see what it can do!
