    Comfy and functional. I have a hard time.sleeping with watches or really anything on my wrists... so while I rly loved sleep tracking feature, I was never able to use it on smartwatches until this model, I honestly forget it's there. The battery lasts a long while and even in the bitter cold and snow while i work for jours outside it doesnt miss a beat. I love the health tracking on it and accessories like bands and face covers are easy to.find on amazon and fit well with universal/generic items [just make sure it fits the 8 classic].

    Got this watch as a gift for my wife. She loves the watch in itself and everything she can do on it, however, ahe does not like the fact that the battery lasts her only 1 full day wearing it. She got me the Ultra a fre months ago and that one lasts me 3 days wearing it. I dont sleep with it on so i turn it off at night, which is part of the reason it lasts as long as it does, but her battery goes from 100% when she puts it on in the morning to under 20% when we go to bed, so we are talking about 13-14 hours wearing it.

    I purchased this Samsung watch as an upgrade from the FitBit Versa I have been using for years. So far, so good. I really like the design, is user friendly and looks good while wearing. Definitely recommend watching a few You Tube videos to learn the best ways to save the battery, because otherwise it drains pretty quick. Would definitely recommend this one!

    I liked the watch alot but ended up upgrading it to the s8 ultra watch due to the band itself was too small for myself and i was worried about how my job is that the ultra had the bevel on it would help keep it from contacting obstructions and breaking the glass so i didn't want to take the chance. Only worn it once. I had gotten it for my anniversary present from my wife

    I purchased this watch for my wife who has never been a smartwatch person. However, she wears this watch all of the time now and really likes it. It has a smaller profile on the wrist which she likes, a big, bright screen, and the health apps are great. I highly recommend this watch!

    Great Watch. I'm 67+ and I wanted to have a watch to help monitor my exercising and sleeping with the heart and O2 information as well as sleep patterns. I've changed some life activities after seeing the results. Great information that I can then show my doc.

    Very sleek and nice. A huge upgrade from my galaxy watch 3. The battery is nothing to write home about, I have to charge every night. It will not last 2 days even with a conservative watch face that is off most of the time. Still good, still love though.

    A Nice Upgrade

    I traded my Galaxy 4 Classic for this 40 mm Watch 8 BT. I received a $150 trade-in value for my old watch and an additional $50 Best Buy gift card. Not only a great deal, but also, in my opinion, an upgrade in style and, of course, battery life (compared to a 3 year old device).

    I love this watch! I wanted something to track my steps, but for the cost, this does so much more! This is my 1st smart watch, so I was a little worried about figuring out how to use it. No worries, it was easy (plenty of online video help as well)!

    This watch is nothing but another amazing Samsung product. It has everything a smart watch is available on. The display is amazing as well as the syncing to my Samsung Galaxy ultra S-22. The phone and the watch work as one unit and this is amazing for charging your phone and still wearing your watch ⌚️.

    With a recent diagnosis of heart issues, I wanted to track and keep up with as much as I could. This watch gives me more than I had expected. Accurate? Yes. The numbers are like getting them from every other medical device. It has been a big help.

    This is my third Samsung smartwatch. I wanted to get the latest fitness/health monitors available. I also liked the case of the watch 8 over the watch 7. with trade-in value of old watch, the upgrade was very inexpensive. Also, the Bestbuy staff was excellent.

    I absolutely love my Samsung Galaxy Watch 8! From the moment I put it on, I was impressed by the bright and vibrant Super AMOLED display that’s easy to read even outdoors. The design feels sleek and comfortable for all-day wear, and the watch is packed with useful features that make everyday life smoother.
