Works great and love the classic look. Was concerned with the size since I am a female with small wrist, have been wearing it day in and day out since purchased dont notice the size difference. I do however notice the weight especially when working out and keeps wanting to slide. Love the stop start push button when swimming but hate it when workout gloves hit it and I dont notice. All in all i would recommend, longer battery then my old samsung watch and i feel more accurate.

I love the fit of this watch! It is so comfortable- I can sleep with it and I always had an issue wearing to bed with my watch 4. It has so much to offer as far as health & fitness features which really helps me because Im very inti fitness. It is very pretty too and not bulky so it go very well with everything. Ive had it for about a month so far and I am really liking it. The charge STAYS even when I'm doing a lot.

Pros: Great watch design if you like the old school James Bond/Pierce Brosnan style Omega Seamaster watches. Battery life is great at times. Feels more comfortable if you change to a steel metal strap band Fare price if you can find one under $250 Most Exercise sessions should work without an Samsung phone, along with a very basic sleep monitor scoring. Cons: I Don’t see this being worth it at full price. I would’ve most likely returned it at full price. Most app don’t work without a Samsung/some android phones, like sleep monitoring, health antioxidant index, period tracking, and music. Default strap is uncomfortable. Does not work with all android phones Does not work with iPhones at all, until the Samsung smart wear is added back into the iOS store. Battery life is not consistently good. My first smart watch. I love the classic design with the steel band strap. The default band strap felt uncomfortable, switching it felt way better. It Doesn’t seem to be worth 500$, but I got an open box for 230$ in excellent condition. Battery life is a hit or miss. I’ll go through the day with only 70% left from 100%, other days it gets below 5% from 100%. I have an iPhone and old 2019 android, watch doesn’t work with both. I kept being told this watch works with all androids, but that’s not true or it doesn’t work with OnePlus phones, my phone pairs with the watch but the app is not seeing my phone. You specifically need a Samsung, to use all features. You can still activate and use the watch without a Samsung nor a phone by pressing the logo a few times.

I’ve been using this smartwatch for a while now, and it honestly exceeded my expectations. The battery life is excellent — easily lasts a couple of days with heavy use. The display is bright and sharp, and it’s easy to read even in direct sunlight. Health and fitness tracking are very accurate. I compared the heart rate and steps with gym equipment, and the numbers matched perfectly. Notifications come through instantly, and it’s super convenient to take calls and read messages right on the watch. The watch feels premium on the wrist and is comfortable to wear all day. For workouts, it’s absolutely perfect. Overall, a fantastic smartwatch. Stylish, reliable, and packed with features. Highly recommend!

I have used the Galaxy watches since the beginning. My last watch was a 5, I skipped 6 and 7 and really wasn't thinking of upgrading just yet. However, I was given this as a gift and I was so surprised at the difference both in speed and capability. AI and the One UI software are a major improvement. It connects seamlessly to my phone and the health features have become more intuitive and consistent. Love the rotating bezel. I missed it from my previous watches. Battery life is also extended.

This watch is surpassed my expectations. I had gotten this for my boyfriend as a Christmas gift - he recently switched back to the galaxy family (as an iPhone/Apple Watch user I was worried about this watch). After watching him set it up and use it daily- I am confident with saying this is by far one of the most incredible watches I have ever seen. The watch band it came with is super classy but can be worn in all settings. There are so many incredible options when customizing and making the watch yours. My boyfriend has mentioned that his watch and phone connection is so smooth. He loves it and is so happy to have it! Last note: he loves the ability to find his phone when he loses it! This watch is an absolute game changer. :)

The Samsung galaxy watch 8 classic that I bought is a very good looking watch. This watch has alot of features such as alarms, calendars that sink up to your smartphones. It has changeable watch faces with alot to choose from. The one I picked has a large digital time display which I like very much. Another thing that I like alot is the battery gives me 2 days on a charge. So far after owning this watch for a month now I must say that I'm very happy with it

Really enjoy my new watch. The bezel is a nice feature. I finally upgraded from my classic 4. Wasnt sure about the size but it ended up being a perfect fit even with my small wrist. I love that i dont have to charge everyday or turn off my watch to save battery. I love the new features that it comes with. The screen is the perfect size to type text and read or select apps. Really helpful when i dont want to carry my phone like when im outside gardening but still have in case of a call, text or listening to music. Overall really enjoy my watch and the new updated features. I enjoy Samsung products and have my ultra 23 for a phone. Looking forward to having these for a few years before i need to consider any more upgrades.

I really like the design of the Samsung Watch8 46mm—it looks premium, feels solid, and is comfortable for everyday wear. Performance is smooth and all the core features work exactly as expected. Battery life is still a bit lacking and could definitely be better, but after switching to a new band, the overall comfort and look improved a lot. Despite the battery limitations, it’s still a great buy and a smartwatch I enjoy wearing daily.

Nice watch, tho' still learning its features. Like that it reminds me to 'get moving.' Like face choices. Haven't yet tested feature that is supposed to respond if I fall, which is why I bought it. Also syncs well to Samsung phone. Excellent support from Best Buy - quick shipping, refund on later Black Friday sale price.
I love this watch so much! After not having a smart watch since the Apple Watch Series 7, this was a change. I was worried the interface wouldn't be smooth or easily accessible, but I was wrong. This watch looks and feels amazing! I read so many reviews that the rotating bezel is so smooth and feels great to toggle between tiles and apps, and those people were right! The rotating bezel is the reason I didn't buy the Ultra and decided to go with the Watch8, and I am so glad I did! I also love the band because it's breathable and comfortable while still looking professional. I did order the athletic band as well, and it's been great swapping the bands out when I work out. The biggest difference I noticed between my Apple Watch and the Watch8 Classic is how easy it is to swap bands on the Watch8. I struggled to slide my Apple Watch bands in and out, but this Watch8 feels secure and still flexible. The battery life is as advertised and can last up to 2 days. The days I've worked out or used my watch more than my phone are when it's barely made it two days. However, it doesn't bother me to let it charge while I shower or get ready, since it charges so quickly.

Excellent features, comfortable and attractive watch. Second Galaxy Smart I have owned. Had to replace the first one due to malfunction. This one is better though I think there are sesitiviy issues when measuring sleep. It seems to record much more wakefulness than I am consciously aware of.

Samsung did a wonderful with this watch. The GPS accuracy is on point, the customization on faces is really cool, battery life is better than I thought, the rotating bezel is nice feature, and all the health options is outstanding.

This is by far the best watch I've owned. I've basically owned every Samsung watch, and this one is the best one. It's also the prettiest one. I can ware it for any occassion.

I really like how these earbuds look. They’re lightweight, comfortable, and the battery life is very good. The price is competitive for what you get. Overall, a great choice. Always happy with Samsung products.

Upgraded to 8classic from a 5, noticable improvement in responsiveness, display brightness and sensor accuracy. The heavier frame takes a few days to get used to. Only downside is the watch band feels harder to adjust and secure than before.
