Customer Ratings & Reviews

The watch came in very fast and it has been a joy to use so far. I always wanted to have the rotating bezel so this is my first classic samsung watch. The squircle design has grown on me and I feel like the screen size is big enough even after using the watch 7 in 44mm and a oneplus watch 2r with a big screen. The battery can last me about 2 days with lte data off and continuos heart rate and stress turned on. I also do sleep tracking but not snore detection. With Lte set to auto or on, I get a day and 5 hours of battery life.

I LOVE MY NEW WATCH ITS SLEEK STYLISH AND COMFORTABLE HOWEVER i was disappointed to find that while it comes with 2 years of free lte service through goofle fi that works great however it does not support calling and Verizon wireless website states that it is supposed to support number share just like my classic 4 did. I EVEN WENT INTO THE BEST BUY STORE AND THEY ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT AND WERE TOLD THE SAME THING AS ME BY VERIZON I LOVE THE PRODUCT OVERALL THE BEZEL ROTATES AND THE 46MM CROWN IS OUT OF THIS WORLD HOWEVER IT IS A LITTLE MORE SENSITIVE TO TOUCH THAN I WOULD LIKE AND ITS EXTREMELY DURABLE I HIGHLY recommend this product even got another one for my better half!

​I’ve owned several Galaxy Watches over the years, but the Galaxy Watch8 Classic is in a league of its own. If you’ve been holding onto an older model, now is the time to upgrade. Everything about this watch has been improved dramatically—it’s easily one of the best purchases I’ve made in a long time. From the hardware to the software, Samsung has polished every single detail. I have already highly recommended this to friends and family. If you want the best wearable on the market, this is it!

I upgraded from a very old Galaxy Watch 4 to this Galaxy 8 Classic. I love this watch. The rotating bezel wasn't a function I thought I'd like but it definitely comes in handy when I have gloves on. Battery life is a major plus if you don't have time to charge it throughout the day, I get about 2 days from 1 full charge. 1 thing to nit pick is the screen could be a little bigger (the numbers along the rotating bezel take up space) but I can live with it.

After using the Huawei Watch GT Pro 2 for years—with its incredible 14‑day battery life even after 3 years of use—switching to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic has been a mixed experience. - What I Don’t Like: Battery Life Coming from a watch that could easily last two weeks, the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic’s battery life is honestly disappointing. Even with Always‑On Display turned off, I’m only getting around 2 days on a full charge. I understand that the Huawei GT Pro 2 isn’t a full‑blown smartwatch like the Galaxy and is more fitness‑focused, but the 12‑day difference is still hard to accept. On top of that, Samsung really needs to improve fast charging. It takes about 1 hour just to reach 45–50%, and nearly 2 hours to fully charge. For a premium watch in 2025, that charging speed feels outdated. - What I Do Like: Health Tracking Where the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic truly shines is health tracking. The sensors are noticeably more advanced and accurate compared to my Huawei GT Pro 2. Heart rate, HRV, sleep stages, stress tracking, and workout detection all feel more precise and consistent. Samsung Health also provides deeper insights and integrates smoothly with other devices and apps. - Final Thoughts If you value health accuracy, modern sensors, and a powerful smartwatch ecosystem, the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic delivers. But if you’re used to the ultra‑long battery life of fitness tracking watches, be prepared for disappointment.

A worthwhile purchase, I love my watch, has many things.

This is my go to work watch. Love the free data and messaging thru Google. Very comfortable. They really slimmed it down.

I gotthe best price deal on the best watch that I wanted and high technology ever imagined

This galaxy watch 8 classic is the best gift I've ever gifted myself. It's performance is beyond imagination.

This watch is everything I wanted in a new Smart Watch. The spinning bezel makes scrolling through the functions a breeze. Highly recommend for anyone interested in wearable tech to consider this watch.

My dad absolutely loves this watch. It matches perfectly with his Galaxy S25 and he wears it all the time. It’s especially useful for him as he has a watchman in his heart due to atrial fibrillation so having accurate and constant readings of his heart is very important as he is also someone who exercises a lot. This watch has changed his life and being an older person, he is very fascinated with the new technology. 5 out of 5 starts

Absolutely nice watch my fiancé loved it it has so many features

Love it. Nice looking watch. Still learning on how to use it.

I highly recommend the Samsung Smart Watch due to its exceptional functionality. Beyond its aesthetic appeal and elegance, the watch incorporates artificial intelligence, enabling users to access a wide range of information effortlessly. This feature significantly enhances its efficiency, making it a valuable tool for various tasks.

Beautiful and luxurious, very good quality, they are rectified.

I love the watch the band is huge. I had to buy a separate band. The face is also very large but it's the watch I wanted so I had to settle for a large watch since it has no size options.

Product is great.. took a while to get even tho it a was a pre order purchase.. love the watch and how it feels

This is an update for me from the Galaxy Watch 42mm w rotating bezel. Similar design to old watch, very nice. Like the rotating bezel. I was not sure I would like the larger size, but the screen is very easy to read. I can deal with the larger size on my wrist to be able to see more easily. This watch charges much faster than old watch, but that may be due to the charging block. Weight is ok. Like the new health tracking. That is why I got the new watch. I am just using the free version, but it does quite a lot. Is is a bonus having the 3rd button. I have it programmed to flashlight. Watch is speedy. Many customization options. Battery life is 1 to 2 days. I do have it tracking health metrics, so I assume that is tough on the battery.

I have been using this 5G Galaxy Watch8 Classic for 3 weeks and absolutely love it. Had a previous Galaxy Watch but wanted to upgrade to this one for the 5G Cellular and the latest health tracking capabilities. The size of this watch allows me to more easily read notifications, text messages and emails. Lots more capabilities I'm still learning about. Easy to use; has long battery life. Connection choices are WiFi, Bluetooth, and 5G. When selecting this watch I was concerned with its size (I'm a small woman) but I love the size, and it fits nicely on my arm. Watch band is easy to buckle.

I like the look of the classic watch. I find it is a little more precise than my Samsung Ultra as far as health tracking. It is also a little lighter it seems to me and not quite as big. Battery life could be a little better.
