Customers are saying

Customers regard the product's overall performance as snappy and lag-free, with its fantastic battery life also being a significant highlight. They further appreciate its comfortable fit, improved design, helpful features, and genuinely useful health tracking capabilities. However, a notable concern for some is its lack of compatibility with iPhones.

    The sleep tracking doesn't work all the time, but still overall happy with this new version. Last Galaxy watch was version 4. Garmin still wins overall for battery life and fitness tracking.

    So far I love this watch and the size is perfect!!! Actually I get compliments on my white watch band with silver bezel. The flatness of the 40mm is a good fit for a smaller person. I would recommend! Also it does everthing you can think of!!!

    I like how thinner it is. The watch band lays flatter on the wrist. Much more comfortable.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I love the look of the galaxy 8 watchs, especially if you get a blingy case for it! I was used to. a Pixel watch 4 and I didn't like the user interface of the watch, it was a little more difficult to set up. I also had to charge it everyday and my previous watch could go two days.
