The watch love it I bought it for my wife prize was good

I am happy with this watch and I am still learning all it can do!!

Good but a little complicated to use- needed a lot of help from youtube to figure out how to do some basic things

fit and size of face is perfect. Easy to use app as well.

Great watch. Synch very easily. Easy to setup and use.

This watch is new so i am still learning the functionality.

I like everything about the⌚️great job from Samsung

First ever smart watch purchase and I'm not a happy camper. It's been 2 months since purchasing and I'm seeing new things about the device daily but the major down side is the battery consumption; IT"S AWFUL. It doesn't last a full day without charging.

I bought this watch for my fiancé and she loves it. It helps her with the health and fitness apps. A great buy.

Very nice. Feels toʻ big but big is necessary in order to read stuff.

The truth is that my wife is very happy with the product but the battery life has to improve.

Happy with my watch so far. No complaints like the color

Love this watch. It is beneficial of helping me experience.

Love the watch and the information that it provides. Only issue is battery life!

The Samsung Galaxy Watch8 requires a Samsung mobile phone to use the most important health monitoring functions. Generic Android phones will not work. Samsung Galaxy Tablets will not work. (It took an hour of conversation with their online support agent to get it to finally admit this. At one point it actually told me that I could set up the watch without a Samsung phone as long as I used a Galaxy phone instead.) So if you want to use these functions, you must own additional Samsung products. Moreover, the phone must have and active mobile/internet connection, according to the documentation. Finally, in their privcy statement Samsung claims the right to maintain substantial and personally identifiable data on their remote servers in indeterminate countries where US laws have no effect. It is not clear whether this includes personal health data. I did not see where such data was specifically excluded from that being captured nor did I see any promise that such data would not be captured in the future. The invasive privacy data collection/terms coupled with the proprietary and captive design of the device (vis-a-vis Apple) was unacceptible to me. I returned the watch. (Kudos to Best Buy for accepting the return without issue.)

The band on the watch is too small so I had to immediately purchase an additional band to even wear the watch

This is a well made watch with tons of bells and whistles. Quite frankly, this thing blows Apple Watch outta the water! Pros: Battery life is fantastic Super easy set up Completely customizable Ease of use is a plus- gestures are very intuitive Stylish "squircle" design is closer to a traditional time piece Great speakers/sound quality, even with calls. Again, this watch outperforms the Apple Watch in this category Bright, vivid screen Cons: Takes a bit to charge- average time is about 1-2 hours depending on usage Screen is very reflective- although this is true, I haven't really found it to be a problem for me Watch band is high quality but doesn't let your wrist breath at all so my wrist gets pretty sweaty Having a separate service with all of its own settings (and it's a lot of settings) can be a con but personally, I love the customization/options available Step/exercise tracking does not seem to be super accurate so take that with a grain of salt. It's more of a general guideline to know approximately what your activity levels are

Battery life is less than par.......... ..........

I had to return this item as it was not compatible with my Motorola razor. Some of the health tech only works if you pair it to a Samsung phone.

This watch is more annoying than it is helpful. I have not been able to wear it 2 consecutive days due to the battery is dead more than it is working. Too much $$$ to not be able to use it. I can't give any info on the features, can't use them. My suggestion is don't buy the Galaxy 8.
