Bought this as a gift my boyfriend absolutely loves it, very awesome features love that it dosnt look like a smart watch but it is a smart watch very cool! Also the vatter life is sm better then my previous watch amazaing

I have had my Samsung Galaxy S7 Smart Watch for a few weeks now and waited until I had given it enough time to try out all the features and know how they all work. I am really pleased with this watch. It is a definite upgrade on my previous Galaxy Smart Watch, with far superior battery life – I am currently getting about 60 hours per charge. Features I particularly like are the Sleep Tracker – I like the way it monitors my sleep and then gives suggestions on how to improve Sleep quality. The screen is a good size, with clear features, making it easy to read, both as a watch and as a way of checking messages. I was pleased there was an additional watch strap as, previously, I have not found the sports band the most comfortable. However, I am pleasantly surprised to find I haven’t needed to change my watch band as the sports band is so comfortable I don’t even know I’m wearing it sometimes. The size of the watch is great – it is nice to have such a large, clear screen and the choice of watch faces means it can easily be personalised to show everything I need. One niggle I have found so far is that, when at the gym, the fitness feature didn’t automatically start tracking – it is easy enough to trigger the tracking but I’m not sure yet whether this is how the new Galaxy S7 Smart Watch is designed or whether I have not yet set it up to automatically track. The only real negative is that, unsurprisingly, the watch is set up for Samsung Pay. I can change it to Google Pay but the shortcut defaults to Samsung Pay, so I have to scroll through to manually find the Google Pay App every time. Overall, Samsung have done a great job in modifying and improving the specification of this new watch and I’m very impressed overall.

Excellent watch Everything is perfect Really comfortable on hand The battery lasts long Its the perfect size for anyone I loved it

The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is sleek, powerful, and incredibly reliable. I love the rotating bezel, crisp display, and seamless performance. Health tracking is accurate, battery life is solid, and it pairs perfectly with my phone. A perfect blend of style and functionality—best smartwatch I’ve owned!

The watch is excellent. Looks great and works great. Deserves a 5 star rating. However, Best Buy is terrible. Beware their (up to $250) trade in offer. I traded in a Galaxy watch 4 classic expecting a $200 rebate. BB instead paid $10 with no explanation as to why. The watch works perfectly with no cracks in the screen or case. I handed it over in the store and I waited until it was accepted which it was. The payment for the new watch showed up in my credit card account immediately along with a $10 credit. I went back to the store twice to see what was going on. The people in the store did their best to try to figure it out but ultimately could not. After waiting a week with no additional credit to my account, I returned the new watch reluctantly. I was informed I could not get my old watch back. Now I have no watch and no interest in ever shopping at BB again. I will try to convince everyone I know to also stay away.

The Galaxy watch classic 8 is the Best smartwatch I've ever owned and I've had quite a few of them over the years dating back to the original galaxy watch years ago. It's big and bright, it's not to heavy on the wrist, the functions work perfectly on it and switching bands on it is very easy and convenient I love it!

People will either like this style or hate it. I think it has a classy look, but the band could be better quality. The battery is also lacking - the most you'll get out of it is a couple days. The new AI features and spin dial are really useful and the thickness is moderate compared to the other watches Samsung is currently offering. You may need to go in store to see it before purchasing

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic aims to deliver a premium smartwatch experience with a classic twist incorporating a physical rotating bezel, a bright display, strong fitness tracking, and the latest Wear OS software with Samsung’s One UI enhancements. It’s designed for people who want functionality and style on the wrist.

I originally got this because my Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic cracked from hitting the screen on a table. Now that I got this watch, I actually like the design of the square behind the rotating bezel. Love the design of the three buttons on the side. I like how they included a wristband that looks professional on the outside, but the inner part is a silicon material. I ordered separately a band for non-professional situations. I use the watch mostly for leisure and checking steps when it comes to active days. Also, this might make me sound old, but I realized wearing my Galaxy Watch6 classic helped me never to miss a call or not see a message, so continuing with a smartwatch made sense for me. Battery life is not bad, but I charge every night before I go to sleep, it is at 100% when I wake up.

Coming from watch 6 classic and happy samsung brought back the rotating bezel, the watch looks very classy and the battery life has been 1.5-2 days with all health tracking. The watch is considerably smoother than 6 classic.

I wanted to upgrade for my watch 6 classic but didn't like the square design of the ultra watch. The watch it classic was perfect to me having that same screen brightness as the ultra, but a more circular design with the rotational bezel made it look more like a classic watch. Pair this with a stainless steel band. The screen resolution is a huge upgrade as well as battery life and health/sleep monitoring have been significantly improved. The watch is very responsive and smooth. The black or white color of this watch still has a full stainless steel body the only thing that changes is the ring on top of the display, the side color near the buttons and the back of the watch. Smart Switch transferred my old watch settings instantly even matching the existing digital watch face.

I love my new Galaxy watch 8! It is stylish, chock filled with features and feels very comfortable wearing all day and night! Highly recommended!

Best watch hands down. Quick, responsive, lightweight and has a bright display day and night. Battery life is great as well.

I was looking for a watch for my health, and this one fit what I was looking for. I walk every morning and use the walking app in the health settings. It keeps track of distance, time heart rate plus more. I read reviews and saw complaints about battery life. Yes, the battery life is about 1 day, but if you read the apps you install it tells you that it will shorten battery life. When new and no apps applied, the battery life was over 2 days. I enjoy the life coach on the watch. The only complaint I have is I wish the charging cable was longer.

This smartwatch is absolutely fantastic! The display is gorgeous, the performance is lightning fast, and the health tracking is super accurate. I bought this for my wife as an anniversary present and she loves it. If you the market for a smartwatch, the Galaxy Watch8 Classic is a total winner!

This is a great choice for Android users, especially Galaxy phone owners and outdoor fitness enthusiasts who want a robust, feature-rich smartwatch with long battery life and detailed health tracking

Great watch. Highly recommend. I had my old Samsung watch for about 6 years waiting for the outer bevel to be brought back. Glad I waited couldnt be happier with the options, battery life, comfort and size of this watch. Only watch anyone in my family owns.

I finally decided to upgrade my Galaxy 5. I love having the bezel back. It is stylish and very easy to use. I like the band. Battery last 2 days even with charging only to 80 percent

This latest Sansung Watch has fantastic health sensors and features and a much better battery life than previous versions. It syncs well with my S22 Ultra with no issues.
