It is a classy looking watch with all of the features you would expect from a smart watch. Works very well, with good battery life.

Galaxy Watch8 pairs well with my Galaxy S24 phone. The watch has all the functions I need and I love the customable watch faces. The enclosed band is okay, but I bought a replacement band which looks better. Battery life for me is over 2 days.

As someone with Tattoos, I was hesitant on getting this version of the Samsung Galaxy Watch line. The sensors on the previous models would not detect they were on my wrist because of my tattoos, and I wasn’t about to get an Apple Watch. My husband and I decided to try the new model as some people reported that Samsung improved the sensor, and they were right! The battery goes about 2.5 days without charge for me, and the vibrations and sounds are not too obnoxious or powerful. It took a moment to figure out the sleep tracking, but once I did, it worked perfectly.

Very nice. I switched over from the Apple Watch Ultra and wanted to go with something that was less bulkier and more lowkey and smaller. Loving how light and how nonintrussive its been. Battery Life has been pretty amazing on par with my ultra when not using AOD display.

Great battery life and face customization options. New health and sleep scores are nice features. The band sent with the product was small and I'll need to buy a larger one. They should give you a band size option. They now use an apple charging base, so I had to go and purchase this, since it did not come with it. Android product using apple product charger? What?

Upgraded Galaxy Watch5 to Galaxy Watch8. Went with smaller size to fit better on my wife's wrist. Charges quickly and settings are easy to change on either watch or phone app. I would recommend to others.

I upgraded from Watch5. I think it's a great update along with all the new features. I'm seeing a clear improvement of battery life but maybe that is due to the age of my Watch5.

Everything is a positive upgrade. The battery last longer, the shape is thinner, and its just a beautiful, functional watch!

I like the products it's a good watch I say good because I believe that they could make for people that are older like myself the face a little bigger without compromising other features furthermore and this might be an oversight on my part if the watch can take my temperature then I would appreciate a representative to contact me and give me some insight on how to check that I also believe that with as advanced as we are it should be able to take your blood pressure from what I understand you have to enter that manually

Big upgrade compared to previous galaxy watches, and great physical design. Super lightweight as well.

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 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

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.
