This watch is a great companion accessory to your samsung device, and, has a great battery life with the 44mm. Lasts me about two full days with a 95% charge

Couldn’t ask for a better watch. Samsung galaxy is my favorite brand Now I need to get a Samsung phone to make it complete. I have had Samsung before and love it.
I would recommend this to a friend

This watch is truly the best! I had the lte version and did not care for it as much as i was not getting text messages from my phone. I decided to go ahead and purchase the bluetooth version because i have my phone on me anyways. Very light and do not even realize i have it on my wrist.

No doubt its a great device with health features ie. tracking features, antioxidant index, adaptive running coach, ECG, blood pressure, body composition, and sleep tracking. The watch also provides practical insights and a daily energy score.
Loooks unique and flat design fixes the charging issues experienced with previous design.

The GW8 is a very comfortable! I was a little scuptical of the throwback design based on the Grear Sport design from 2017. However, its grown on me. I appreciate the new strap design and the manner to connect them is easy. Plus, I can use my older 22mm straps with it via an adaptor from Amazon.
Poor design, excel at tracking, impressive battery

This watch excels at workout tracking and has impressive battery life. Even with the always-on display active for a day and a half, including an 8-hour workout, the battery didn't drop below 30%. However, the design is a bit of a letdown. I wish Samsung had committed to either a circular or a squared design with curved edges instead of the current hybrid approach.

I am loving this new watch, It has everything I need from my phone at the tip of my fingers. The only thing I regret is not having bout the cellular version.

It does have a lot good options and we can manage it through a decent app from phone. l like the way its work except battery and design is ok. The build quality is scratch proof. over all a good pick for the money, if your a android user especially samsung.

While I thought this watch was really ugly, it has grown on me tremendously. It just works. It's thin, it weighs nothing, it has Spotify over LTE, I can do DJ nights on my runs without my phone. No drama, build is solid, UI makes sense. It just works. I thought the Pixel Watch would be better because it looked better, but the Galaxy Watch 8 is a far superior device.

I got this watch as a present to my wife that has a terminally illness that needs her to be able to watch her heart rates as well as everything else. All the time this watch has gone above and beyond.Expectations from the last watch that I got her

My issue with this gen watch are the buttons. For me, they do not stick out enough. Other than that, I like the 44mm size, the band is same as the rest. Looks like a few more choices on the ap as far as watch face goes. I would say if you are a Samsung person and not an isheep you should get it. I wish I could leave a review after six months of use, I hate that best buy would let me leave a revie after like 20 days or so. I don't have a chance to use the item, and they want a review.

This watch is so much easier than before. The bands are easier to attach and remove. Gives you the options for larger images (which i need). All around great watch.

So much more than I expected. I watched YouTube and learned so much about the functions I use so many. I'm so pleased I purchased my Galaxy Watch8. I had a Galaxy watch 5. The 8 face is so much clearer and easier for me to read (I'm 84 but still good eyesight).
I would recommend this to a friend

Love it. I wear it everyday and it keeps me in check. Battery lasts me 2-3 days when im not playing with it so much. Got much more use out of it than apple watch. Gemini is great.

The fact that I'm able to get a perfect barely used, like new product, for less money is EVERYTHING!!!! Thank you Best Buy for the thorough inspections before placing an item out to purchase. Great Samsung quality at a great Best Buy price....YES PLEASE!!!

So far I've been really enjoying it. I love being able to use gestures on one hand to control the watch and check texts, etc. The step counter is a bit off though. Counts way more steps than you actually take.
