The watch arrived early and it is a fast, responsive, and has a long battery life.

The watch is as expected. Excellent response especially compared to watch 6 which I had. I use lte a lot. Only one issue. With lte and if you listen to youtube vidoes (yes you can do that), the battery will die in couple of hours. Almost 50% in an hour. Otherwise battery can stay for couple of days easily with normal activities

Nice product. First time in a LONG time using Android devices. WATCH is great and recommended. Disappointed though with BestBuy Return policies. After a week I discovered Samsung says don't use this watch if you have a Pacemaker (& I believe it was causing problems). When I tried to return to BB after a week's ownership they would not offer what I paid for it...only a reduced value! Frustrating.

I've not cared too much for Samsung's Android watches. I tried one 2 years ago and didn't like it. However, this new squircle design had me intrigued. And I must say it looks much better in person. The new OneUI8 really brings it all together. I guess I'm a convert now.

Several things I like about the watch. There's tons of features. It can track almost anything you can think of. That is the main problem. If you use all the features of the watch the battery is only going to last 12-14 hours. Then with a 2+ hour charging time it becomes very annoying. However with all that said it is still a great watch. I did almost return it, now I'm glad I didn't. BTW I didn't like the wrist band, but got a 3rd party band that is much more comfortable.

Excellent watch. Upgraded from a previous model. The screen is bright and colorful. Several standards apps included in the default setup with options to add many more. Very comfortable and light weight. You can't feel it being worn and very comfortable. Samsung hit a home run with this model.

Purchased this watch for my Apple fangirl wife after convincing her to switch from iPhone to Samsung Z fold 7. She has been very happy with the performance of this watch compared to her Apple watch.

I upgraded from a Galaxy Watch5 and this is everything I hoped it would be. The battery life is great. It lasts 2 full days, often a bit longer. Tracks what I need it to prettt accurately as well.

I purchased the Samsung Galaxy 8 smartwatch for my husband, and he absolutely loves it. He said that the size and color are perfect for him, and he can now keep up with his daily activities without carrying his phone when he goes on a run.

I've had many apple watches, Garmin, and fitbits, and this is the most comfortable to wear night and day. I use it for workouts, sleep, and business! Highly recommend.

The watch is decent.
The new placement of the band connection makes it flat on the wrist giving it a more sleek appearance.
As far as capabilities i see no difference in this and any other smart watch.
I am a huge Samsung fan and hoped for exclusive features which were not there.

Enjoying my first smartwatch so far! I wasn't initially a fan of the shape based on pre-release photos, but seeing and wearing it in-person changed my mind. The smartwatch fit is just right for my wrist; and the graphite color compliments my phone quite well. Also, the pre-order incentive was just too good to pass on! Set-up was a little daunting at first with the required Samsung apps, and not all functions are available if users do not have a Samsung cellular (which personally, I am fine with since I don't require every health feature). The 44mm touchscreen I chose is nice and responsive. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

This is the best watch I've purchased thus far. I'm not typically a techy person however I love the capabilities this watch has. The fact that you can browse the internet, watch tv and/or YouTube on this watch is top tier!
